SUMMARY The David O. McKay Building was part of a wider complex of buildings that collectively constituted the former Church College of New Zealand campus whose motto: “Build now for Eternity” was not about building structures, but about building people, communities, and future generations. In consideration of the heritage values attributed to the subject place, it is concluded that the heritage values of the building are dependent on, are related to, and should be measured against the heritage and community values of the Temple View Church College site as a whole and to the wider values of Temple View and its active Latter-Day Saint community. Accordingly the heritage values of the building derive from, are related to, and should be measured against the heritage values of the former Church College site as a whole and to the wider values of Temple View. This “associated value” is recognised in the Explanation of the Objectives and Policies connected to the Proposed District Plan’s Chapter 19 Historic Heritage - Buildings and Structures. The demolition of the David O McKay building is a process anticipated through Church policy, practice and objectives in providing quality education for rural-based students, but only until the advent of accessible mainstream local education of a sufficient standard. The existing building was primarily designed and constructed as a sports and performance venue to serve the former LDS Church College and Temple View community. Having fulfilled its designed function, the LDS Church College has since closed and the surviving building is no longer considered suitable to meet sustainable contemporary needs. A range of alternative uses have been considered, but have proved inappropriate from a heritage perspective. One option saw the facility offered to the Hamilton City Council, but for a number of reasons (including Building Code compliance, structural upgrade requirements, and building services upgrade costs) this too proved unacceptable. The building façade of the David O McKay Building is regarded as a strong contributor to the overarching heritage significance of the place, particularly in relation to historical and architectural values that are complimented by the brick masonry construction method. The suggested continued adaptive re-use options all envisage façade modifications to some extent, which although reflecting the original Modernist stylistic influences would likely have a significant adverse effect on the recognised heritage values associated with the place. Significant reconstruction of the façades would therefore be particularly detrimental to those recognised values. Consequently, adverse effects relating to the demolition of the David O McKay building have been mitigated in part through evolving and carefully considered development of the former 3 2016-10-26_david o mckay_aee_heritage LDS Church College site. The evolution of the site is now defined by a number of enabling development consents elsewhere on the former campus that aim to reinforce the continued presence of the LDS community. Equally the Church has undertaken a comprehensive archival record of the building including oral histories from many who had been staff or students of the College. Selective recycling of materials from the David O McKay building is being considered including the use of timber to form new pews in other Church buildings. The Explanation of the Objectives and Policies connected to the Operative in Part District Plan’s Chapter 19 Historic Heritage - Buildings and Structures also recognises that it is “important to ensure heritage buildings and structures are safe and usable. However, the strengthening of these buildings and structures still needs to ensure the heritage values are retained.” It has been recognised that the strengthening required to provide sufficient seismic resilience to the structure of the David O McKay building may well compromise the very fabric that contributes to the building’s historic heritage values. The upgrading, adaptive reuse, and seismic strengthening of the existing building is considered an uneconomic. 2. METHODOLOGY This Assessment of Environmental Effects – Heritage (AEE) relies on an objective heritage assessment report commissioned in 2014 and the assessment of historic heritage values recognised in the David O McKay building as found. That assessment is attached to this AEE as Appendix A. That Heritage Assessment establishes a clear description of the historic heritage values of the David O McKay building within its wider context and recognised that wider complex of buildings that collectively constitutes the former Church College of New Zealand campus. The heritage assessment was written at the time when the Proposed District Plan (PDP) had been notified and was under review. Weight was given to the Operative District Plan (ODP) assessment criteria and provisions for the protection of places listed in that plan, while the assessment also had regard for the assessment criteria promoted in the PDP, recognising that as a matter of national importance the heritage provisions in the PDP were afforded “immediate legal effect”. The assessment criteria in the ODP and the PDP are effectively the same and assessment of heritage values has not changed the recognition of these values between plans. For completeness the Heritage Assessment also considered the assessment criteria found Part 4 s 66 of the Heritage New Zealand Pouhere Taonga Act 2014. 4 2016-10-26_david o mckay_aee_heritage 3. AN OVERVIEW OF THE PROPOSAL AND THE LOCALITY 3.1 The Church of Latter-Day Saints Trust Board [LDS] seeks resource consent to demolish the David O McKay building. The David O McKay building lies within what was formally known as the Church College of New Zealand Temple View campus and is listed in the Hamilton City Operative District Plan as a Category C place while the proposed District Plan (which is now effectively beyond appeal on heritage matters) recognises the David O McKay building in its refined two-tier classification system as a Category B place. 3.2 Temple View is located seven kilometres from the City of Hamilton and within the middle Waikato basin, which extends 80 kilometres from north to south and 50 kilometres from west to east. This basin is bounded by ranges that rise up to 900 metres in height. Key features of the basin include the scattering of low-lying hills and the Waikato River which, following flooding, faced a topography, which naturally prevents easy drainage. The river therefore played a significant role in the formation of scattered small lakes and extensive peatlands. The lower lying, often marshy areas, supported reed and moss and were largely populated with Manuka and Kahikatea trees. 3.3 The former Church college campus extends over 87 hectares and contains approximately 20 buildings of distinctly variable form, scale, function, and value. The Operative District Plan identifies and affords protection to seven places of recognised cultural heritage value within Temple View and the Proposed District Plan maintains recognition of these places. However no places of cultural heritage value, including those recognised in the District Plan within the Temple View area have been recognised by Heritage New Zealand by way of inclusion on the Heritage New Zealand list. 3.4 A total of six buildings within the Church College Character Area have been included as Heritage Items in the Hamilton City Council Operative (in part) District Plan (October 2016).. The Temple itself lies to the south of the Character Area within its own Temple Heritage Precinct as recognised within the Hamilton City Council Operative (in part) District Plan (October 2016)and is recognised as a Category A place being a place of “… highly significant heritage value [including] those assessed as being of outstanding or high value in relation to one or more of the criteria and are considered to be of outstanding or high heritage value locally, regionally or nationally” (8A: Built Heritage (structures, buildings and associated sites)). Of note, this precinct is located within a Group 2, Significant Archaeological Site; identified as Site A11: Koromatua - Urupa (Burial Grounds) on Planning Map 60B (Appendix 3). Further items of significance located within both of the above sites include a number of Category 1 and 2 trees (T62, 5 2016-10-26_david o mckay_aee_heritage T63, T64 on Planning Map 60B), which

  • It Is Thy House, a Place of Thy Holiness" (D&C 109:13)
    “It Is Thy House, a Place fo Thy Holiness” Gwen B. Goaslind Wife of General Authority emeritus; mother; matron of Manti Utah Temple. © 2001 Gwen B. Goaslind. All rights reserved. A couple of years ago a friend of ours was invited to serve as a volunteer at a temple open house. One of her assignments was to guide people from the receiving doors to enter the temple. Her duty station positioned her near a larger-than-life art print of the Savior, in which He appeared to be reaching towards those in the waiting line. In his extended hands were visible the imprints of the nail wounds. The people were coming to see the completion of the beautiful temple, and she noticed as the people approached the many facial expressions and excited conversation. She said it was interesting to watch as each person eventually made eye contact with the picture of the Savior on the wall. There was a marked change of countenance, and their voices took on a hushed tone when needing to speak. Each visitor seemed to absorb "the message" of the moment and the out- stretched hands offering, "come unto me." Temples are houses of the Lord wherein He may dwell and where He may pour out His blessings. The Savior said that ordinances performed therein "bear record of me, even Jesus Christ" (D&C 68:6). When Solomon's temple was completed, virtually the whole Israelite nation came together to celebrate the dedication (2 Chronicles 5-7). So, too, in our day, each temple dedication is a time of rejoicing for the Church.

  • Jordan River Temple
    Jordan River Temple Number of Rooms: Six ordinance rooms and seventeen sealing. Total Floor Area: 148,236 square feet. Dedication: Marion G. Romney (30 years ago) (2 years to build) Temple Facts The Jordan River Utah Temple was the seventh temple built in Utah and the second built in the Salt Lake Valley, following the Salt Lake Temple (1893). The Jordan River Utah Temple and the Oquirrh Mountain Utah Temple are the only two temples in the world located in the same city. The Jordan River Utah Temple is the highest capacity temple in the Church with six ordinance rooms each seating 125 patrons. The Jordan River Utah Temple is one of five temples featuring an angel Moroni statue holding the gold plates. The construction of the Jordan River Utah Temple and its maintenance costs for many years were funded entirely by monetary donations from local members. The temple site was likewise gifted to the Church. At the unconventional groundbreaking ceremony of the Jordan River Utah Temple, President Spencer W. Kimball delivered his address, offered the dedicatory prayer, and then mounted a huge Caterpillar tractor—operating the controls to move a giant shovelful of dirt. Just hours before the dedication of the Jordan River Utah Temple, news correspondents announced that President Spencer W. Kimball, who was recovering from surgery and a lengthy hospital stay, would likely be confined to his room at the Hotel Utah during the dedication services. But with tears of joy, he was welcomed to the Celestial Room just before the ceremony commenced. 30 people who were at the Salt Lake Temple dedication were also at the Jordan River Temple dedication 88 years later.
