Farmers' Market – a Community April 2016 Farmers’ Market – a community hub At a recent Project Wairarapa workshop to nurture resilience and sustainability in our town, I joined interested parties from all backgrounds to nut out ideas, create a framework, and construct an informed plan. We left on a high (too much coffee?) feeling we’d done our bit for the town. It was reassuring to feel the love in the room for the Farmers’ Market and its role in a resilient community and it left me thinking about its future. To date we have grown, overcome obstacles and tried new ideas with an overall goal merely to exist. But what are our core goals and what is our mission? After much contemplation I realised that the market should be about developing a hub – somewhere people can go to share their day. The market isn’t only for stallholders, regular customers or passing visitors. It’s a community event. We love that people can come for many reasons – make or spend some cash, speak on the Toastmasters stand to discuss issues important to them Roger Clarke yarns with Kevin and Jill Shipp at Carterton’s Farmers’ Market. or have a community stall to raise funds or awareness for Photo Don Farr. local causes; even just for somewhere to grab a coffee and say hi to others. We will continue to work with the Project Wairarapa team. Although the Farmers’ Market offers something for everyone within the community, resilience is not just about having food and supplies in an emergency – it also ensures that people interact, and know and support one another. Whether you are a young mum, an entrepreneurial teenager or retiree, come along – there will be others like you in our friendly community. See you at the market on Sunday!

  • Timaru District Economic Development Strategy 2015-2035
    Timaru District Economic Development Strategy 2015-2035 1 Introduction Timaru is an area of enviable lifestyle and business opportunity. Located in the centre of the South Island it is a gateway to some of New Zealand’s most pristine and visited natural attractions. It is on the doorstep to the largest population centre in the South Island – Christchurch and surrounds. Timaru District, which is the economic hub of South Canterbury, has a population of 44,000 and has a higher than average standard of living when compared to the rest of New Zealand. (The broader are of South Canterbury has a population of 54,000, and includes the Timaru, Waimate and Mackenzie Districts, between the Rangitata and Waitaki rivers.) The elected leaders of Timaru District have expressed a strong and visionary desire to maintain, or even increase, this standard of living through stimulating and supporting sustainable business growth over the long term. This, they believe, will enhance and build on the lifestyle opportunities that are on offer in Timaru District leading to a much stronger (and more self-determining) future profile for the area. This strategy has been developed in consultation with the elected members of Timaru District Council and the directors of the Aoraki Development Business and Tourism (ADBT). While many of the actions are currently underway this strategy provides a ‘new direction’ which pulls together these and a number of new actions all heading towards the same goal. This strategy was adopted by Timaru District Council in February 2015 and is now available for public feedback. Notes: 1.

  • Title: Timaru's District Wide Sewer Strategy Author
    Title: Timaru’s District Wide Sewer Strategy Author: Ashley Harper, Timaru District Council Abstract: Timaru’s District Wide Sewer Strategy Key Words: Wastewater Strategy, Working Party, Community, Oxidation Ponds, Wetlands, Trunk Sewers, Tunnels Introduction The Timaru District has four main urban areas, namely Timaru, and the inland towns of Geraldine, Pleasant Point and Temuka, with each of these areas having a traditional piped sewer network. The total population served within these urban areas is 40,000. #:872456 Since 1987 Timaru’s wastewater had been treated via a 0.5 milliscreening plant and associated ocean outfall, while each of the three inland towns utilised oxidation ponds and river discharge as the wastewater treatment and disposal process. In 1996 the Timaru District Council initiated a review of the respective wastewater treatment and disposal strategies, primarily because of emerging environmental and regulatory issues. Council supported a community based approach to identifying a preferred strategy, noting that the strategy needed to be robust and viable and to recognise the unique nature of the Timaru District’s effluent. Compliance with proposed environmental standards was a non negotiable requirement. Wastewater Working Party The community based approach involved the appointment of an experienced facilitator (Gay Pavelka) and the formation of a Wastewater Working Party in 1997. Membership of the working party was made up of representatives of the following organisations: Timaru District Council Community Boards
