Its intention is to provide for sustainable rural living while enhancing and protecting rural character and amenity. It is intended that subdivisions and residential buildings will be: sensitive to the unique rural landscapes of Wellington; environmentally sustainable; attractive places to live; and efficiently integrated into the infrastructure of services. When planning new development the amenity of both existing residents as well as newcomers must be considered. Privacy, shelter, access to open space, the maintenance of a quiet environment, and security need to be thought about to ensure the quality of lifestyle is sustained for existing residents while offering the same for newcomers. -

Summary Report LET’S GET WELLINGTON MOVING This report presents summary findings of the Let’s Get Wellington Moving (LGWM) November and December 2017 public engagement. February 2018 Report prepared by Global Research Ltd Report By Global Research Ltd Foreword by Let’s Get Wellington Moving Let’s Get Wellington Moving (LGWM) is a joint initiative between Wellington City Council, Greater Wellington Regional Council, and the New Zealand Transport Agency. We’re working with the people of Wellington to develop a transport system that improves how the city looks, feels, and functions. Our focus is the area from Ngauranga to the airport, including the Wellington Urban Motorway and connections to the central city, port, hospital, and the eastern and southern suburbs. OUR WORK SO FAR In 2016 we talked with people around the region to learn what people like and dislike about Wellington and how they get around the city. Using feedback from more than 10,000 people, we developed a set of urban design and transport priniciples to guide our work. We then collected extensive transport data, and used the principles and ideas from the public to develop scenarios to improve Wellington’s transport and support the city’s growth. THIS REPORT In November and December 2017, we released four scenarios for Wellington’s transport future and promoted these in a region-wide public engagement programme. The scenarios were presented in the document Have Your Say…on Let’s Get Wellington Moving and on the website yourvoice.getwellymoving.co.nz. As a result, LGWM received 1,994 online and hardcopy-form responses, 147 letter/report style responses (including 55 from stakeholder groups), and 35 Facebook posts. -

Nikau Within Wellington City Jonathan Anderson1
Nikau within Wellington City Jonathan Anderson1 New Zealanders have enthusiastically adopted the nikau palm (Rhopalostylis sapida) and given it iconic status. It appears in our paintings, on our pottery and clothes, in the names of our businesses and even as part of our architecture, as seen in the metal nikau that surround Wellington’s public library (Fig. 1). Strangely, the palm is not seen where we would expect to see it—in the forests in and around the urban parts of the City. Yet nikau is an indigenous tree of the Wellington Peninsula (which roughly corresponds to the local government area of Wellington City). This may come as a surprise Figure 1. Steel nikau outside the Wellington if, like me, you associate nikau with Central Library.

Where are Wellington’s nikau and why are they little known? LAND, CLIMATE AND FORESTS The Wellington Peninsula lies within the Cook Strait and Wellington Ecological Districts. It is characterised by relatively fertile soils derived from loess and weathered greywacke crushed by active faulting (Gabites 1993). The forest types have been described as coastal and semi-coastal forest, and inland, podocarp / broadleaved forest (Gabites 1993). A notable feature is the absence of beech (Nothofagus) species, the nearest being found on the opposite side of Wellington Harbour and on the hills of the eastern Hutt Valley. 1. 3 Quetta Street, Ngaio, Wellington 48 Anderson—Nikau in Wellington The land is subject to frequent winds off Cook Strait from the north- west and south-east. -
