Unbudgeted expenditure projects are usually items that crop up throughout the year while extraordinary projects typically cover those unforeseen projects that – because of their significance to the community – need to be introduced to the LTP process despite falling outside of the timelines the latest LTP was developed within. Extraordinary items/ projects are also those that contribute to Southland District Council’s four strategic priorities of improving how we work, providing appropriate infrastructure/ services, making informed decisions, and attracting more people to our District. Community boards and CDAs have been asked to consider extraordinary projects or activities, over and above what has been allocated in the LTP 2018- 2028 for the 2019/2020 year, to be included in the development of the Annual Plan. If any extraordinary projects are identified, they will need to be resourced or prioritised against the current resourcing allocation available at Council.

This has become more important in recent years with services and funding being centralised in larger, urban areas. Every region in New Zealand is fighting for its fair slice of the pie – and here in Southland we can reflect on some significant funding wins during 2018. The Tourism Infrastructure Fund (TIF) injection of $5.7 million is welcome, needed – and, many would argue, overdue. Of this, $5 million is earmarked for a new land-based wastewater disposal system at Te Anau. This funding was achieved through the hard work of Council staff, backed by councillors, and further supported by representatives of government organisations and agencies in our patch, who recognise the strain tourism growth is exerting in Southland. The so-called shoulder season of tourism in Southland has been disappearing for several years now, and it’s now normal to see visitors making their way round Southland in the middle of winter. We welcome visitors to our region, but ratepayers cannot be expected to foot the bill for the roads, toilets and other facilities needed to cater for the extraordinary growth in numbers. It’s not just a case of maintaining the members have made in Welllington are bearing funding fruit, and status quo – the demands being placed we are always upfront and honest around Southland’s challenges upon us mean facilities need to be and opportunities. upgraded and modernised. It’s not a lolly scramble. A good example of this is the Manapouri Among Council’s other wins during 2018 is Ministry of carpark and surrounds – which Council Business, Innovation and Employment funding for the project has received $300,000 in TIF funding to manager-community role for Predator Free Rakiura. work on – as it is the main gateway to Doubtful Sound.

  • Travel Report 2016-01-8-13 Tuatapere
    8.1.2016 Tuatapere, Blue Cliffs Beach As we depart Lake Hauroko a big herd of sheep comes across our way. Due to our presence the sheep want to turn around immediately, but are forced to walk past us. The bravest sheep walks courageously in the front towards our car... Upon arriving in Tuatapere, the weather has changed completely. It is very windy and raining, so we decide to stop at the Cafe of the Last Light Lodge, which was very cozy and played funky music. Afterwards we head down to the rivermouth of the Waiau and despite the stormy weather Werner goes fishing. While we are parked there, three German tourists get stuck with their car next to us, the pebbles right next to the track are unexpectedly soft. Werner helps to push them out and we continue our way to the Blue Cliffs Beach – the sign has made us curious. We find a sheltered spot near the rivermouth so Werner can continue fishing. He comes back with an eel! Now we have to research eel recipes. 1 9.1.2016 Colac Bay, Riverton The very strong wind has blown away all the grey clouds and is pounding the waves against the beach. The rolling stones make such a noise, it’s hard to hear you own voice. Nature at work… Again we pass by the beautiful Red Hot Poker and finally have a chance to take a photo. We continue South on the 99, coming through Orepuki and Monkey Island. When the first settlers landed here a monkey supposedly helped to pull the boats ashore, hence the name Monkey Island.

  • Whatever Happened to Tuatapere? a Study on a Small Rural Community Pam Smith
    Whatever happened to Tuatapere? A study on a small rural community Pam Smith Pam Smith has worked in the social work field for the past 25 years. She has worked with children and families within the community both in statutory and non-government organisations. She has held social worker and supervisor roles and is currently a supervisory Team Leader at Family Works Southland. This article was based on Pam’s thesis for her Master of Philosophy in Social Work at Massey University. Abstract Social workers working in the rural community do so within a rural culture. This culture has developed from historical and cultural influences from the generations before, from the impact of social and familial changes over the years and from current internal and external influences. These changes and influences make the rural people who they are today. This study was carried out on a small rural community in Western Southland. The purpose was to examine the impact on the community of social changes over the past 50 years. Eight long-term residents were interviewed. The results will be discussed within this article. Introduction Government policies, changes in international trade and markets, environmental policies, globalisation, change in the structure of local and regional government and legislative changes, impacted on all New Zealanders during the past 50 years. The rural hinterland of New Zealand was affected in particular ways. The population in rural communities has been slowly decreasing over the years as ur- banisation has been a reality in New Zealand. Services within the area have diminished and younger families have moved away to seek employment elsewhere.
