  • Regional Transport Committee Approved Organisation Update June 2019
    Regional Transport Committee Approved Organisation Update June 2019 ORGANISATION NAME: Horowhenua District Council RTC REPRESENTATIVE: Mayor Michael Feyen 1. MAINTENANCE, OPERATIONS AND RENEWALS Pavement repairs and drainage work for next season’s reseals have begun around the district. This year’s reseals, which were undertaken by JJ Walters as subcontractors to Higgins, had all but one site completed by mid-December with the final site completed in April following completion of a minor safety improvement project. The road past the Gladstone Road slip has continued to be open full time. Geotechnical investigations have been carried out along the corridor of a possible realignment. The development of a business case has begun and a variation to the RLTP will be forthcoming. Work on this financial year’s rehabilitations progressed well except on Waitarere Beach Road where the discovery of a midden has held work up. The project has now been delayed until the new financial year. 2. WALKING AND CYCLING Council officers have met with the NZ Transport Agency and KiwiRail regarding a proposed shared pathway in the rail reserve in Levin from Tararua Road to Roslyn Road. This pathway would become the north/south spine for the shared pathway network through the town. KiwiRail have issues with trespassers illegally crossing the railway line all along the rail corridor in Levin and a fence could be installed at the same time to alleviate this concern. 3. ROAD SAFETY RURAL SPEED LIMIT REVIEW HDC have been undergoing a Rural Speed Limit Review with the aim to implement any new rural speed limits by the end of the financial year.

  • Biography of Frederick Wilhelm Koberstein of New Zealand
    Biography of Frederick Wilhelm Koberstein of New Zealand The beginning starting from the end: Frederick Wilhelm Sr. died January 21 1912 at Rongotea, New Zealand at the age of 94. Here is his obituary from the newspaper, “Feilding Star” Volume VI, Issue 1700, 22 January 1912. This serves a good record to survey this first family and their locations at his death. It says he arrived in this district in 1876, the same year of their immigration. One can surmise from this that they had arrangements made in advance to come to this area. The obituary says he was a good citizen, had the respect of all his neighbours and had a strong constitution. This document indicates he had five sons and one daughter. Now, we have to make a correlation between the names given here and those above. The daughter, Emily, is obviously the now married Mrs. C. Hartley living at Wellington. Here are the five sons: 1. William now living at Colyton (Manawatu district). This must be Frederick Wilhelm Jr. called William to distinguish him from his father who was often referred to as F.W. in the Feilding Star newspaper. 2. Amco of Patea (South Taranaki district of Taranaki region). It is unclear which of the remaining three this is. 3. Carl of Queensland (The only Queensland apparent on modern maps is near Sydney Australia. This name must be for a town no longer known by that name. It is unclear which of the remaining three this is. 4. Fred of Wellington (Wellington region). This would obviously be Ferdinand.

Firstly from parishes, who have included architectural drawings within their own parish archives, usually as part of the building or development of buildings. Secondly, from the Church Property Committee, Methodist Church Trusts and Methodist Trust Association. Included in these drawings are investment properties, particularly from 1980s, as well as buildings used by parishes. The Architectural Plans Collection In this descriptive list, the collection is arranged in alphabetical order, by Church name, or Parish name if appropriate. Each drawing has a catalogue number allocated, which uniquely identifies each drawing. The letters APS form part of the catalogue number. The title is written exactly as it is on the original plan. If there is no title, a brief description is given. The earliest plan dates from 1880, the most recent, 2009; the Collection is being continually added to. The majority of the Collection consists of drawings of buildings used by parishes. It is not clear in some cases, whether the building plan went ahead, or if it was a proposal. 1 Methodist Church of New Zealand Archives List of Architectural Plans Collection, Hawkes Bay and Manawatu Districts February 2010 The format of the plans varies from original ink watercolours, to photocopies.
