Thanks to your support through rates, the last twelve months have been a year of accelerated action for our region. During the 2018-19 year, the Council and staff worked alongside Napier Port to secure funding for the port’s new wharf and infrastructure. This put the Regional Council in a strong position to approve Napier Port to proceed to offer shares in 45% of the value of the Port. This active move on the part of the Regional Council delivers on one of our 23 strategic goals and contributes to this region’s economic prosperity. With 370,000 new plants in the ground this winter, we’re ramping up our plan to control erosion and reduce sediment loss from steep land and near waterways. We also extended the Sustainable Homes programme across the region, and now offer improved access to insulation and venting, solar, double glazing, domestic water storage and septic tanks, and clean heating. Behind the scenes, we’ve been working closely with the government on practical changes to freshwater policy – we were happy to offer this support as we anticipate it leading to simpler rules and policies for land users that also gives better protection to our environment. For the first time we are reporting against our 23 outcome targets. This work and numerous other projects we are working on all contribute to protecting and enhancing our environment. It has been an energetic year of focused activity and positive change. With climate change clearly in our sights, we’re on the right track to a healthy environment, a vibrant community and a prosperous economy. Ngā mihi nui Rex Graham James Palmer Chair Chief Executive 3 Part 1 - Introduction | Kupu Whakataki Message from the Chair of the Māori Committee He Kupu nā te Toihau me te Komiti Māori The focus of activity over the last year was about getting on with the job of improving land use, rivers and streams. I’ve said before that this is well-aligned with Māori aspirations. This report also sees my retirement from the role of Māori Committee Chair with the Regional Council, after 18 rewarding years at the table. Gradual changes in attitude over that time have seen Councillors and senior staff recognise Tāngata Whenua not just as another interest group, but increasingly as Treaty partners. After five years of lobbying alongside fellow Māori Committee members Marei Apatu, Mike Paku and Roger Maaka, I am delighted to see the Māori Partnerships Manager role created in the Council’s senior managers’ team, and Pieri Munro in this new role with two senior Māori staff. A high calibre of Māori staff at a senior level is appropriate for the Regional Council. The Regional Council’s Māori Committee has been a great way of getting alongside the people who make the decisions, where both parties benefit from the discussions that take place. We can only move forward by communicating openly and with good honest intentions. The Māori Committee members and the Māori staff on the Council welcome your views and concerns at any time.

The original meandering channels were regularly overwhelmed by the flow of the Ngaruroro, and infamous for the dense swamp vegetation that early settlers had to navigate. A programme to clear exotic willow that was choking the channel was undertaken in the early 1970’s, and the grazing of sheep and cattle then became the accepted means of managing weed growth. The catchment currently functions to convey stormwater away from the Heretaunga Plains, including the expanding urban area of Hastings. The catchment is becoming increasingly valued as a source of irrigation; as habitat for wildlife; for views from public and private areas; and as a public recreational area. Since the first coordinated planting at Havelock North in 1997, enhancement work has been initiated in parts of the Karamū catchment, from Whakatū (5kms upstream from Waitangi Estuary) to Bridge Pa (35kms upstream) and beyond.

The thesis may not be reproduced elsewhere without the permission of the Author. Heretaunga Haukū Nui A thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts (Māori Studies) at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand. Pōhatu Paku 2015 Abstract Relationships with the environment for Ngāti Hāwea sit at the core of everyday living. Everything is connected. The essence of this philosophy arises from whakapapa, mauri, mana and tikanga. Practices based on an understanding of the environment have supported Ngāti Hāwea in maintaining and sustaining whānau and communities for many centuries. At present, key natural and physical resource management legislation define obligations and relationships when working with Māori in this space. In Aotearoa New Zealand, the Local Government Act 2002 and the Resource Management Act 1991 requires engagement and capacity for Māori to contribute to the decision-making processes of any local authority in its operations. This project aims to contribute to the bigger picture around engagement with Māori, and furthermore Māori-Council relationships. This project seeks how effective engagement brings with it not only opportunities for Māori, hapū and local government players, but also the different meanings and expectations that stakeholders bring to inclusive practices and the implications for policy engagement. This study is interested in the processes by which Māori and the Hawkes Bay Regional Council engage with each other, and examines the ways in which natural resource management operations recognize and facilitate hapū values, interests and aspirations under statute.

  • Heritage Trails FARNDON HERITAGE TRAIL Hawke's
    Heritage Trails FARNDON HERITAGE TRAIL Frimley-Waitangi Tangi a Te Ruru sculpture, Whakatu Photograph: Ivan Hughes Hawke’s Bay Discover New Zealand 1 FARNDON HERITAGE TRAIL Frimley-Waitangi Introduction: The Farndon Heritage Trail takes visitors through areas that have been historically associated with the orcharding and fruitgrowing industry in Hawke’s Bay, as well as some sites of Maori significance. The route touches the Ngaruroro River in several places. This river is significant for its numerous floods and their effect on the Hastings region in its past and more recent history. The name of the Farndon Trail is taken from one of the roads in the area and its related land and building features. Farndon is a village in England where the sweetheart of a young surveyor of this local region lived. This trail traverses 22.6km and can be driven or cycled. Cumulative mileage is noted in red. The Heritage Trail starts in Hastings at the intersection of St Aubyn Street, Frimley Road and Pakowhai Road. Park on Pakowhai Road outside Hastings Girls’ High School. 1. Hastings Girls’ High School (opened March 1956) Secondary education began in Hastings over a century ago on the site of the current Hastings Boys’ High School in Karamu Road. (See Hastings Urban Drive Heritage Trail brochure) Initially this school was co-educational but due to pressure of the post-war baby boom, by 1954, a new high school became necessary. As was the fashion then, the new school on Pakowhai Road was created for girls. It was built on Plaque and one of a pair of the windows from the Williams’ homestead in the Hastings Girls’ High School hall Don Trask 2 Section of the mural on the back wall of the Don Trask Hastings Girls’ High School hall the former Frimley Estate, owned by the pioneering (James Nelson) Williams family.

  • Te Kaunihera O Heretaunga State of the Environment Report Ko to Te Taiao
    HASTINGS DISTRICT COUNCIL - TE KAUNIHERA O HERETAUNGA STATE OF THE ENVIRONMENT REPORT KO TO TE TAIAO 2008 Introductory Message from the Mayor & Chief Executive We have great pleasure in presenting to you, the first State of the Environment Report for the Hastings District. The Report is a snapshot of the Hastings District detailing current environmental conditions and the interaction between the people and the environment as at 31 December 2008. State of the environment monitoring provides Council and the community with access to information on the state or condition of our environment, enabling us to identify key environmental pressures and, from this information, then assess responses to those pressures. It is important that we as a community are informed about how we are performing in the management of our natural and built environment. The Report is not so much a report card on Council‟s management of the environment, but a report card on us all as custodians/kaitaiki of the environment. This Report is an important first step in identifying what state our District‟s environment is in. The Report acknowledges that there are gaps in the information that we as a community hold, and that there are areas yet to be covered – such as the state of our urban stormwater, and further incorporation of mana whenua customary values which would add a further dimension to our state of the environment reporting. We expect to include this in future reporting, with the identification of further key indicators and collection of additional data. Council has already changed the way that some data is being collected to provide more useful information for future reporting as a result of the gaps that have been identified.
