LWB Issue 759 Digital.Indd 36 LAKES WEEKLY JOBS INSIDE 14th Jul - 20th BULLETIN FIRST ON THE STREET No 759 WWW.LWB.CO.NZ • BUY • ACCOMMODATION • SELL • INFORMATION • JOBS • [email protected] Know it is us who are mad Driving around the Queenstown area is, and has been for a few years now, a complete disaster. I know its old news but it’s a cluster f—k and getting worse. We don’t need tourists from overseas to clog our streets, we do it all by ourselves. I counted, whilst dawdling in traffi c, (heading towards Shotover Country roundabout) 80 cars heading into Frankton before I saw one with two people in it, then 120 more before I saw three. All the rest were single drivers. I was also one. These all originate from Lake Hayes Estate, Shotover Country, Gibbston/ Cromwell and some other Wakatipu Basin traffi c. Digressing momentarily, those subdivisions should never have been allowed to go ahead before roads and bridges were prepared. The consultants were morons. The people deciding to give the go ahead were also morons and we should ask for our money back. Now we have winter and the usual traffi c issues and town congestion is The Gibbston Valley Cheesery & Deli pop-up opened last week. ridiculous. I have been, along with countless others, shouting out about this but Taste artisan cheeses, learn about cheese and wine pairings or no one is listening. Build more, more hotels, more fl ats, more apartments, more enjoy a good coffee and grab lunch from the deli shops, more people and on it goes. This week past I had work to do in town and took an hour and ten minutes plus fuel, to NOT fi nd a park. The road up to Coronet Peak is a nightmare and mostly driven by one person (I am one). Now council is ticketing people parking at the bottom to ride share. Nice one! Recently in Hamilton I noticed the metered parks advising 2 free hours to encourage shoppers to spend. Here we pounce on the tardy. Real estate agents and shop workers or owners are part of the problem. Wonder why you can never get a park near the Lonestar restaurant? Checkout the real estate businesses nearby. Sure, we have buses and park and ride but it’s not enough. We are a mess. We are drowning in cars. We obviously are not hard up for cash if we can all zoom all over the place. Our family have been car sharing and leaving 2 or 3 cars at home which has its problems, but we are trying. The kids are saving money anyway. So next time you see a long slow line of traffi c barely moving from Mitre 10 at the “other” Queenstown to Stanley Street, and then watch them do the circuit around Shotover Street, Rees Street, Camp St, then leave after an hour of frustration, know it is us the locals who are mad and only us the locals who can solve the problem.

Itinerary Day 1: Christchurch / Arthur’s Pass / Franz Josef Most people leave the Northern Hemisphere on a Friday evening, arriving into Auckland early Sunday morning • You’ll lose a day crossing the dateline – but you get it back on the way home! • It’s a short flight from Auckland to Christchurch on the South Island where we’ll meet you • We’ll then travel into the Southern Alps to hike Devil’s Punchbowl in Arthur’s Pass • The walk will take you through native beech forest to an awesome 131-meter (430 feet) waterfall, so make sure you have your camera handy! • From there, we’ll head down the coast to Franz Josef where we’ll stay the night • Nestled in the rainforest-clad foothills of the Southern Alps, Franz Josef is the heart of New Zealand glacier country • Overnight Rainforest Retreat (L, D) Day 2: Franz

  • Lessons Learnt Preparing a 30 Year Infrastructure Strategy for the Queenstown-Lakes District
    A CASE STUDY: LESSONS LEARNT PREPARING A 30 YEAR INFRASTRUCTURE STRATEGY FOR THE QUEENSTOWN-LAKES DISTRICT Lead Author: Polly Lambert Policy, Standards & Assets Planner, Queenstown Lakes District Council Queenstown Co-Author: Dr Deborah Lind Infrastructure Advisor, Rationale Ltd Arrowtown Abstract The Local Government Act 2002 Amendment Act 2014 became law on 8 August 2014, requiring councils to prepare an infrastructure strategy for at least a 30 year period, and to incorporate this into their long-term plans from 2015. The Queenstown Lakes District is a recognised tourism destination that supports economic growth across the southern part of the South Island of New Zealand and contributes significantly to the ‘NZ Inc.’ global brand. As such, the district is attractive to local and international investment in housing, services and visitor related activities. The current resident population of 29,000 supports the infrastructure services for a peak day population of 100,000 people. Combined with the fact that the District is one of the highest future growth areas in the country, this placed increased pressure on the three waters and transport services in terms of capacity and service delivery. This paper will share the approach, challenges and outcomes of preparing a 30 year infrastructure strategy for the Queenstown Lakes District and the lessons learnt to inform, and improve on, future infrastructure planning. Key Words (wiki’s) 30 Year Infrastructure Strategy, LGA Section 101, Asset Management, Forward Planning, Long Term Plan, Evidence Based Decision Making adventure, exploration, creativity or relaxation. Our District The Queenstown Lakes District is The Queenstown Lakes District has a land synonymous with innovation, adventure and area of 8,705 km² and a total area (including bucket lists.

  • PLAN CHANGE 14 Makarora Rural Lifestyle Zone
    PLAN CHANGE 14 Makarora Rural Lifestyle Zone Section 32 Report Prepared by Vivian+Espie Limited for the Queenstown Lakes District Council 14 September 2007 Section 32 Evaluation Page 1 Makarora Valley Rural Lifestyle Zone EXECUTIVE SUMMARY At present, 880 hectares of the Makarora valley floor is zoned for Rural Living purposes. The Rural Lifestyle Zone permits subdivision as a controlled activity provided new allotments meet a minimum area of 1 hectare and an average allotment size of 2 hectares. Once an allotment is used calculate the above average, all further subdivision becomes non-complying. Residential development within the Rural Lifestyle Zone is a controlled activity where it is located within an approved building platform. Building platforms are required to be identified at the time of subdivision on all lots created by subdivision (except access lots or reserves). The Makarora Rural Lifestyle Zone therefore anticipates that the floor of the Makarora Valley that is currently paddock-land will be subdivided and developed to a minimum lot size of 1 hectare and a average lot size of 2 hectares. Given the size of the Rural Lifestyle Zone at Makarora this would enable in excess of 400 new lots, each with a right to construct a dwelling, residential flat and accessory buildings and curtilage activities. Rural Lifestyle zones of this sort tend to develop a relatively enclosed treed type of character. Under these provisions, the character of the valley floor would become much more fragmented and visually enclosed. Obviously traffic movements, the number of driveways running off the state highway and the presence of people in the valley would consequently increase significantly.

This publication may be reproduced in whole or in part provided the source is fully and clearly acknowledged. ISBN 1-877265-85-3 Published November 2009 Otago lakes’ trophic status i Foreword The high quality of Otago’s lakes and waterways has come to be expected by all who live and visit the region. However, areas are coming under pressure from intensive agriculture, urbanisation and water discharge practices. To help protect water quality, the Otago Regional Council (ORC) carries out long-term water quality monitoring as part of its State of the Environment programme. Short-term monitoring programmes are also carried out in some catchments to provide more detailed information. These programmes assist regional planning and help everyone understand the need to protect water quality. This report provides the results from short-term studies, which monitored the health of five high country lakes (Lakes Hayes, Johnson, Onslow, Wakatipu and Wanaka). With this information the ORC and local community can work together to ensure the future wellbeing of these five important lakes. Otago lakes’ trophic status ii Otago lakes’ trophic status Executive summary Otago Regional Council monitored five high country lakes in the Clutha River/Mata-Au catchment between 2006 and 2009. The monitoring of Lakes Hayes, Johnson, Onslow, Wakatipu and Wanaka was undertaken in order to detect any small changes in the trophic status of the lakes.
