Don Cameron JP Clive Manley MAYOR CHIEF EXECUTIVE RUAPEHU DISTRICT COUNCIL – ANNUAL REPORT 2019/20 SECTION 1 - PAGE 3 WHAT IS AN ANNUAL REPORT The local authority is required to produce a plan showing how it will achieve the purpose of Local Government that is to meet the current and future needs of the community. The local authority demonstrates its contribution towards this purpose in the setting of Strategic Goals (SGs) and in the development of a Long Term Plan (LTP). The LTP describes what a local authority aims to achieve over a minimum period of ten years. The LTP must be produced once every three years, with an Annual Plan for the years in between. The Annual Plan provides the budget for the coming year and explains any changes from the LTP. The first year of the LTP is the Annual Plan for that year. The Annual Report is used to monitor the local authority’s progress against the SGs and work programmes identified in the 2018-28 LTP and against budgets contained within the 2018-28 LTP and 2019-20 Annual Plan.

  • New Zealand National Climate Summary 2011: a Year of Extremes
    NIWA MEDIA RELEASE: 12 JANUARY 2012 New Zealand national climate summary 2011: A year of extremes The year 2011 will be remembered as one of extremes. Sub-tropical lows during January produced record-breaking rainfalls. The country melted under exceptional heat for the first half of February. Winter arrived extremely late – May was the warmest on record, and June was the 3 rd -warmest experienced. In contrast, two significant snowfall events in late July and mid-August affected large areas of the country. A polar blast during 24-26 July delivered a bitterly cold air mass over the country. Snowfall was heavy and to low levels over Canterbury, the Kaikoura Ranges, the Richmond, Tararua and Rimutaka Ranges, the Central Plateau, and around Mt Egmont. Brief dustings of snow were also reported in the ranges of Motueka and Northland. In mid-August, a second polar outbreak brought heavy snow to unusually low levels across eastern and alpine areas of the South Island, as well as to suburban Wellington. Snow also fell across the lower North Island, with flurries in unusual locations further north, such as Auckland and Northland. Numerous August (as well as all-time) low temperature records were broken between 14 – 17 August. And torrential rain caused a State of Emergency to be declared in Nelson on 14 December, following record- breaking rainfall, widespread flooding and land slips. Annual mean sea level pressures were much higher than usual well to the east of the North Island in 2011, producing more northeasterly winds than usual over northern and central New Zealand.
