SUMMARY 1.1 The purpose of this Evidence Report (Report) is to set out a sub-regional overview of the approach to zoning and precincts within the Central area of the Auckland region with respect to the Proposed Auckland Unitary Plan (PAUP) Topic 081e Rezoning and Precincts General (Topic 081). 1.2 The sub-region of Central Auckland (Central area) covers an area of 15,214 hectares, encompassing the Auckland Isthmus area under the former Auckland City Council boundaries and includes the Albert-Eden, Maungakiekie-Tāmaki, Orākei, Puketāpapa Local Board areas. The area also includes the southern portion of Waitematā Local Board Area, western portion of the Whau Local Board area and northern part of the Māngere-Ōtāhuhu Local Board area. In summary, the area extends from Avondale to Point England (west to east) and Herne Bay to Hillsborough (north to south). 1.3 We have relied primarily on the evidence of Mr John Duguid for Topic 080 Rezoning and Precincts (General) (Topic 080) and Topic 081, which sets out the relevant statutory framework and strategic overview of Council’s approach to zoning and precincts in the PAUP. 1.4 The proposed zonings and precincts in the Central area have been applied to: (a) Achieve the priorities of the Auckland Plan for urban Auckland. This includes achieving a quality compact urban environment that contains good design in all developments and creates enduring neighbourhoods, centres and business areas; (b) Give effect to the provisions of the RPS, as a whole, and specifically to provide growth in a quality compact form supported by adequate infrastructure and efficient transport whilst also addressing historic heritage and character areas, natural character and natural hazards. 1.5 Future growth in the Central area has and will continue to be influenced and shaped by a number of local factors including: (a) Limited growth in heritage areas and around Auckland’s key volcanic cones (b) Continued focus of intensification of areas around the existing infrastructure networks 5 (c) Proximity to the city centre and other key employment areas comprising heavy and light industrial activities such as Penrose, Mt Wellington and Rosebank. 1.6 The Central area’s location in the greater Auckland region, its proximity to the City Centre and major employment areas, open space, and high frequency public transport, as well as the high standard of amenity found in many of the suburbs has made it a popular area to live. This has translated into additional demand for housing and a variety of housing types in the Central area. 1.7 The focus of further intensification in Auckland needs to be prioritised. In comparison to other parts of Auckland, we consider the features of the Central area provide an ideal opportunity for delivering the vision of the Auckland Plan and giving effect to the Regional Policy Statement, particularly the directive for a compact city approach. 1.8 In the Central area, there have been 8258 submission points received on rezoning requests. These are broken down into the sub-areas as follows: (a) Western Isthmus – 2457; (b) Eastern Isthmus – 3985; (c) Southern Isthmus – 967; and (d) City Centre Fringe – 849. 1.9 These are further summarised in Attachment D of this Report. 1.10 We consider the proposed zonings and precincts in the Central area reinforce existing settlement patterns which concentrates more intensive residential and business development around centres and along key public transport routes (rapid and frequent service network). 1.11 The notified PAUP contains 18 precincts in the Central area and submissions to the PAUP seek an additional 27 new precincts sought by submitters within the Central area which were allocated to Topic 081. Of these 27 new precincts sought through submissions, 10 have passed the merit assessment review and have been more substantively assessed through statements of evidence filed in the Topic 081e group. It is noted there are other precincts in the Central area that were allocated to Topic 080 – Rezoning and Precincts (General) relating to retirement villages, tertiary institutions, marinas and coastal areas. Of the precincts in the Topic 081e group, we 6 overall propose retaining 15 of the 18 existing precincts included in the notified PAUP, and progressing 1 of the 27 (i.e. of the 10 which have passed merit assessment) precincts sought by submitters. These are outlined further in section 10 of this Report. PART A – OVERVIEW AND BACKGROUND 2. INTRODUCTION 2.1 This report has been prepared by Joao Alberto Machado and Paulina Yui-Wai Wythes. We both hold the position of Team Leader, Central and Islands Planning at Auckland Council. A summary of our qualifications and experience is provided in Attachment A. 2.2 The purpose of this evidence is to set out a sub-regional overview of the approach to zoning and precincts within the Central area of the Auckland region. Map 1 in Attachment B shows the extent of the Central area addressed in this report. We note that zoning for the City Centre, shown in the attached maps as ‘C1’, has been addressed through Topic 050 – City Centre. 3. CODE OF CONDUCT 3.1 We confirm that we have read the Code of Conduct for Expert Witnesses contained in the Environment Court Practice Note 2014 and that we agree to comply with it. We confirm that we have considered all the material facts that we are aware of that might alter or detract from the opinions that we express, and that this evidence is within our area of expertise, except where we state that we are relying on the evidence of another person. 4. SCOPE 4.1 The purpose of this evidence is to set out a sub-regional overview of the approach to zoning and precincts within the Central area of the Auckland region. In particular, the scope of this report is to address the following matters: (a) the relevant statutory framework; (b) a description of the Central area; (c) an overview of the infrastructure in the Central area including existing and proposed infrastructure investment; 7 (d) key transformational projects in the Central area; and (e) an overview of the PAUP approach to precincts and zoning in the Central area, including an overview of submissions in the sub-region. 4.2 In preparing this statement of evidence, we have relied upon the two statements of evidence filed by John Duguid, dated 3 December 2015, for Topic 080 and Topic 081 which set out the strategic overview of the Council’s approach to zoning and precincts within the PAUP. In particular we refer to and rely on the evidence in chief

  • Sir Peter Leitch Club at MT SMART STADIUM, HOME of the MIGHTY VODAFONE WARRIORS
    Sir Peter Leitch Club AT MT SMART STADIUM, HOME OF THE MIGHTY VODAFONE WARRIORS 21st September 2016 Newsletter #140 By David Kemeys Former Sunday Star-Times Editor, Former Editor-in-Chief Suburban Newspapers, Long Suffering Warriors Fan RIKEY DID the Vodafone Warriors get hammered at the weekend. The constant theme was that we Cneed a player clearout. That is hardly groundbreaking stuff, but what was, was that players were named. Hugh McGahan singled out Manu Vatuvei and Ben Matulino, arguing both had failed to live up their status as two of our highest paid players. The former Kiwi captain said Warriors coach Stephen Kearney could make a mark by showing the pair the door, and proving to the others that poor performances won't be tolerated. “Irrespective of his standing, Manu Vatuvei has got to go,” McGahan told Tony Veitch. “And again, irre- spective of his standing, Ben Matulino has got to go. They have underperformed. If you're going to make an impact I'd say that's probably the two players that you would look at.” Bold stuff, and fair play to the man, he told it like he saw it. Kearney, on the other hand, clearly doesn’t see it the same way, since he named both in the Kiwis train-on squad, and while he acknowledged they had struggled this year, he backed himself to get the best out of them. In fact he went further, he said it was his job. “That's my responsibility as the coach, to get the individuals in a position so they can go out and play their best.

    THE ACTION KICKS OFF THIS SATURDAY NIGHT Sir Peter Leitch Club Newsletter RLWC 2017 24th October 2017 It’s 4 days until the Kiwis play # their first game of the 2017 RLWC 193 Back The Kiwis By Enjoying Lunch By David Kemeys Former Sunday Star-Times Editor, Former Editor-in-Chief Suburban Newspapers, Long Suffering Warriors Fan E ARE only days from the kick-off of the 2017 Rugby League World Cup, with Australia and England W– in what will be a hell of a match - doing the honours on Friday night. Of course the Kiwis take on Samoa on Saturday night at Mt Smart, and that one should be a good game too. League legend Olsen Filipaina is taking the ball out, which is pretty cool given he has represented the Kiwis and Samoa. The game I am looking forward to is the Kiwis v Tonga in Hamilton, because there is not going to be a lot of love lost when those two sides meet, after everything that has gone on. Before a ball is kicked I have the Kiwis lunch at the Ellerslie Events Centre to look forward to on Friday. When Pete asked if I would take it on with Gordon Gibbons and Tony Feasey, I foolishly said yes, not want- ing to let Pete down. But in truth Gordon has been amazing and we have an incredible line-up of Kiwis greats taking to the stage, and players with a long history of World Cup and test glory in attendance. I have been to several of Peter’s Kiwis lunches and enjoyed every one of them.

Issues of Power in a History of Women’s Football in New Zealand: A Foucauldian Genealogy A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the University of Waikato by BARBARA DOUGLAS COX MBE Department of Sport and Leisure Studies School of Education University of Waikato 2010 ABSTRACT In the majority of countries throughout the world, football is a highly popular sport for women and girls and one which continues to grow in playing numbers. According to FIFA, 26 million females were registered as football players in its member countries, an increase of four million players within the past five years (FIFA Big Count, 2006). Despite such popularity of participation, histories of women‟s football „speak‟ of exclusion, struggle and conflict, and thus, the prime question which underpins this study is: “how has women‟s football in New Zealand gone from a position of struggle to a point where the game is perceived as a „normal‟ sporting activity for women and girls?” In order to examine this question, I have used Michel Foucault‟s concept of conducting a „history of the present‟, a genealogical approach which accounts for the “constitution of knowledges, discourses, domains of objects and so on...” (Foucault, 1978, p.
