The lands are now owned by Rotorua Regional Airport Ltd -in which the Crown and the Rotorua District Council have shares, and are held under Hamilton Land Transfer Office, CT 52c/128, amalgamated title, issued 25 June 1993. The lands taken include lakeshore springs which are part of the East Lake geothermal field. The questions that arise from this claim are: 11 Why was this particular piece of land chosen as an airport site? What was the selection process? Was it fair? Were other possible sites thoroughly investigated? 21 Were Maori owners adequately consulted? Were their concerns taken into account in the planning process? 31 Was the compensation award fair? 41 Was the geothermal resource discussed and were the owners' interests in it protected? 51 . Rotokawa airport was partially financed from the sale of the old airport land in Rotorua township. Had this land been gifted by Maori? 61 In the Te Maunga Railways Land Report the Tribunal stated the central issue in that, and other claims concerning land taken by proclamation under various Public Works Acts is "under what circumstances can the Crown right to govern in the public interest over-ride the Crown obligation to protect the Maori interests guaranteed in the Treaty? 1 This airport claim should also address this question. lWaitangi Tribunal Report: 7 WTR, 1994, p4 2 The Beginning An aircraft first flew into Rotorua in 1922.2 It was a seaplane but later that year another plane arrived, landed on the Arawa Park racecourse and offered flights to paying passengers. By 1928 Rotorua Borough Council, under pressure from the Auckland Aero Club, began to look around for an aerodrome site. A year later they had two prospective sites: Vaughan's farm on Te Ngae road and a State Forest reserve adjacent to the road to Whakarewarewa. A decision was made to use the Reserve, then designated as an 'Arboretum Area'. This was section 80, Rotorua township, land that had been gazetted as a State Forest in 1916. In August 1930, the Minister of Lands had the State Forest reserve designation on the land revoked and vested the land in the Borough Council} A further area belonging to the Rotorua Borough Council, made up of undeveloped building sections plus part of two unformed streets was included, making up a total area of approximately 94 acres.4The area was small and when a larger plane arrived in 1933, the 'Southern Cross', R Copeland Smith's fal:111 at Te Ngae was used for landing. 5 Construction of the aerodrome was undertaken by unemployed relief workers. The Borough Council initially had control of this aerodrome, but during the second World War it was appropriated by the Defence department. In 1935 the Borough Council met with the Forestry Service to discuss taking more land so that the aerodrome could be extended. This land included an area set aside for a cemetery and a road that had "little use".6 The Forest Department agreed, provided experts -"responsible engineers" - were sure that this extra land was essential.7 Hinemoa Point This first aerodrome was not ideal and within 10 years attention focussed on the need for another, more suitable area. Dissatisfaction with the first site appeared to develop 2D M Stafford, 'The Beginning of Aviation in Rotorua' Rotoma 1880-1980, Rotorua, 1980,p225 3ibid, p231 4Short History of Rotorua Aerodrome in Civil Aviation files, C1 (d), Civil Aviation files, p21, for an exact description of this land, see C1 (d), Civil Aviation files, p65-67 5D M Stafford, 'The Beginning of Aviation in Rotorua' Rotoma 1880-1980, Rotorua, 1980,p234 6see report of meeting of Mayor with Commissioner of State Forests, 14 Dec 1935, C1 (b), Public Works files part 1, p6 7see correspondence, C1 (b), Public Works files part 1, pgs9-10 3 in tandem with a desire to use its land for building housing.8 The Owhata block, "land lying between the eastern shore of Lake Rotorua and the main Bay of Plenty Highway" was mentioned in 1945 by the Organisation for National Development as a place where a "first-class aerodrome" could be situated.9 This suggestion was readily taken up the Public Works department and investigated by their District Engineer. He found the site was good after analysing run-way requirements, weather factors, topography and soiL It was hot a detailed investigation -just a trip in a car to the area, combined with meteorological data from the present aerodrome and local plans. In his opinion the most troublesome features would be the ilcquisition of the lan.d.10 Discussions continued. There was talk of making further surveys of the Rotorua area to investigate the potential of other sites and of further study on the viability of extending the present airport. In April 1947 there was an air reconnaissance and ground inspection which appeared to confirm the suitability of Hinemoa:1 1 As a result of this survey it is considered that the vicinity.... offers better possibilities than any other site with in 15 miles of Rotorua Borough. Other sites around the lake permit development in one direction only... The Engineer-in-Chief, F Langbein, suggested there was an alternative site that "reduces interference with native lands to a minimum, and improves clearances".12 This proposal however, involved reclamation of some of the arm of the lake and was not regarded as better than Hinemoa but was recommended for survey. In August 1947 a deputation consisting of the Mayor of Rotorua, the local MP and the Chairman of the Tauranga Harbour Board visited the Minister of Works in Wellington to stress the importance of acting quickly because the site (Hinemoa) was being sub­ divided and would be built on if action wasn't taken.13 8See letter from the 'Organisation for National Development' to the Dir of Civil Aviation, 21 June 1945, Cl (b), Public Works files part 4, p2, also letter to the Commissioner of Works from the Acting Controller of Civil Aviation (Buckridge), 14 Nov 1946, C1 (b), Public Works files part 4, p9, Langbein to Dist Engineer, 14 April 1948, Cl (b), Public Works files part 4, p30 9letter from the 'Organisation for National Development' to the Dir of Civil Aviation, 21 June 1945, Cl (b), Public Works files part 4, p2 10Dist.

The land selected contained 820 acres: 470 of that was European land, 125 acres was unleased Maori land and 225 acres was Maori land leased to Europeans.16 Public Works claimed that the pa area at Hinemoa point would not be affected. Protests about the development also came from a European dairy farmer affected by the proposal, G W Vaughan. His protests were backed by the Rotorua Co-Op Milk Producers' Co Ltd and the Rotorua Borough who claimed if Vaughan's land was taken out of production "Rotorua will be short of milk during the coming winter months".17 Some time early in 1948 Messers Smart and Fullerton, Aerodrome Engineers, visited Rotorua to determine how it might be practicable to reduce interference in Maori holdings. They consulted closely with Judge Harvey from the Native Land Court and developed a plan that they believed involved minimal interference with native lands.18 Peter Fraser, Prime Minister and Minister of Native Affairs, became interested in the project -partly, according to Works, because he and the Native Department wanted the existing aerodrome for Maori Housing.19 The Government hoped they might be able to use the area to fulfill a promise made to Tuhourangi people after the eruption of Tarawera that they would be granted 1000 acres of land.

  • Auckland Regional Office of Archives New Zealand
    A supplementary finding-aid to the archives relating to Maori Schools held in the Auckland Regional Office of Archives New Zealand MAORI SCHOOL RECORDS, 1879-1969 Archives New Zealand Auckland holds records relating to approximately 449 Maori Schools, which were transferred by the Department of Education. These schools cover the whole of New Zealand. In 1969 the Maori Schools were integrated into the State System. Since then some of the former Maori schools have transferred their records to Archives New Zealand Auckland. Building and Site Files (series 1001) For most schools we hold a Building and Site file. These usually give information on: • the acquisition of land, specifications for the school or teacher’s residence, sometimes a plan. • letters and petitions to the Education Department requesting a school, providing lists of families’ names and ages of children in the local community who would attend a school. (Sometimes the school was never built, or it was some years before the Department agreed to the establishment of a school in the area). The files may also contain other information such as: • initial Inspector’s reports on the pupils and the teacher, and standard of buildings and grounds; • correspondence from the teachers, Education Department and members of the school committee or community; • pre-1920 lists of students’ names may be included. There are no Building and Site files for Church/private Maori schools as those organisations usually erected, paid for and maintained the buildings themselves. Admission Registers (series 1004) provide details such as: - Name of pupil - Date enrolled - Date of birth - Name of parent or guardian - Address - Previous school attended - Years/classes attended - Last date of attendance - Next school or destination Attendance Returns (series 1001 and 1006) provide: - Name of pupil - Age in years and months - Sometimes number of days attended at time of Return Log Books (series 1003) Written by the Head Teacher/Sole Teacher this daily diary includes important events and various activities held at the school.

  • Formation of the Sport of Athletics in Rotorua
    Lake City Athletic Club Inc A History by Pam Kenny Three clubs joined together in April 1991, to form the current Lake City Athletic Club Inc. A short history of the earlier clubs is shown first. Rotorua Amateur Athletic & Cycling Club / Rotorua Athletic Club 1931-1991 On the 13 November 1931 a meeting was convened at Brent’s Bathgate House to establish an athletic and cycling club in Rotorua. Thirty people were in attendance and the Rotorua Amateur Athletic and Cycling Club was formed, with the club achieving incorporated society status in 1938. Blue and gold were the club colours - blue singlet/blouse and shorts with gold “R” on the top. Weekly competitions were held at the Rotorua Boys High on a Friday evening, with the customary track and field events for the runners, with cyclists contesting both track and road races. Val Robinson winning an early ladies’ athletics meeting in the late 1940's The club went into recess during the Second World War, with activities resuming October 1944. Venues utilized between 1944 and 1960 were Harriers in the late 1940's - L to R; John Wild, Alex Kuirau Park, the old A&P Showgrounds near Uta Millar, Keith French, Harry Findon Street, Arawa Park, Pererika Street, and again Kuirau Park. 1961 saw the Club at Smallbone Park, its home until the 1983/84 season, when a move was made to the new International Stadium, though the inadequacy of the track led to a return to Smallbone Park for a season. 1986 it was back to the Stadium until sand carpeting of the ground prevented permanent lane markings and children being able to run barefooted.

  • Border Report – Port of Tauranga and Rotorua Airport August 2013
    Border Report – Port of Tauranga and Rotorua Airport August 2013 Purpose A preliminary report to understand the level of risk the Port of Tauranga (POT) and Rotorua Airport present to the Bay of Plenty kiwifruit industry with the intent of determining if the current level of protection is adequate. Background Biosecurity in New Zealand consists of a multi –layer system that begins offshore with pre-border activities, incorporates the border and continues post-border into New Zealand where it becomes a joint effort between central government, regional councils, industry, community groups, and all New Zealanders, (a paper describing this system in more detail can be found on the KVH website www.kvh.org.nz/kiwifruit_biosecurity_risks). This paper will review a single layer, border interventions at ports of entry. Any port of entry has the potential to bring unwanted pests and diseases into New Zealand that could be detrimental to the kiwifruit industry, however, given the high concentration of the kiwifruit industry in the Bay of Plenty, this report has focused on the ports of entry in the immediate proximity to this region, which are the Port of Tauranga and the Rotorua Airport. The Port of Tauranga is New Zealand’s second largest port by container volume, and a major stop on the cruise ship circuit. Rotorua Airport is an International Airport receiving two trans-Tasman flights a week. Imports into POT, cruise ships, and passenger traffic through Rotorua Airport are all potential pathways for risk items to enter New Zealand and each will be reviewed to provide an overview of operations, potential risks that each present and how these risks are being mitigated.

  • Case Study: New Zealand
    Case Study: New Zealand Background Because of its geographic location, its dependence on tourism, and the absence of a comprehensive rail network, New Zealand has developed a large international and national airports network over the years. Until 1966, almost all New Zealand important airports were developed by the State and remained under the central Government ownership and management. There are three main international airports. First, Auckland Airport is the busiest and the main international airport. It is the only airport serving the Auckland metropolitan area, which gathers a third of the country’s total population. Second, Wellington International Airport is also a major domestic hub serving mainly business and government. International flights at Wellington Airport are principally from/to Australia. Third, Christchurch International Airport is the major international airport in the South Island, where it acts as the main hub and attracts a significant share of New Zealand’s international tourist traffic. There are other international airports in New Zealand, such as Dunedin, Hamilton, Queenstown, and Palmerston North, which also get flights from other countries (mainly Australia). Other commercial airports serve domestic and regional traffic. Commercialization/privatization: Airports The commercialization of New Zealand’s airports started early. First, the 1961 Joint Airport Scheme established the principles that resulted in both central and local governments jointly owning and operating airport facilities. The objective of this policy was both to benefit from the expertise of local governments on regional economic needs and opportunities, and to make local government directly invest in airport infrastructure. In 1974, 24 airports throughout New Zealand were under a joint venture ownership.

  • Spas and Geothermal Fields Candice Chalmers Brock
    ROTORUA ABSTRACT 1 Running head: ROTORUA ABSTRACT Rotorua Abstract Rotorua – Spas and Geothermal Fields Candice Chalmers Brock University Dave Brown Due: February 18 2010 TREN 3F94 ROTORUA ABSTRACT 2 In New Zealand’s North Island, a unique and popular tourist attraction can be found. Rotorua, a district that is filled with “...steaming hot springs, explosive geysers [and] bubbling mud pools...” (Lonely Planet, 2008, p.32) reminds tourists that they are in a destination that is incomparable. The harsh scent of sulphur fills the region, but this harmless element has been created by the geothermal activity that occurs in Rotorua (Bell, 1999). With ‘lunar landscapes’ that have been created by volcanic action and fourteen lakes, Rotorua attracts tourists of all kinds as this destination boasts a distinct natural environment (Ryan & Pike, 2003, p.315). The creation of these natural wonders have been because of Geothermal fields which have been produced by the ingredients of water, heat and access to the earth’s surface for geothermal heat. Once cold water moves through the ground towards the heat, the water naturally warms and moves upwards thus establishing geysers, fumaroles, mud pools and also hot springs (Department of Conservation). There are five main areas within Rotorua that possess these remarkable sights, and they are known as Whakarewarewa, Tikitere, Waimangu, Waiotapu and Orakei Korako (New Zealand on the Web). All are located in fairly close proximity, making them extremely accessible to visitors. With result many spas have been established throughout Rotorua, as there is undoubtedly an appeal to tourists as many are looking to achieve a personal experience with the natural products.
