Page 2 Auckland Council District Plan - Hauraki Gulf Islands Section - Operative Part 10a - Land units: objectives, policies and activity tables 10a.1 Introduction This part of the Plan contains the objectives, policies, activity tables and some rules applying to land identified on the planning maps as being in a land unit. Each land unit also identifies issues, and a strategy for how those issues will be addressed and the objectives and policies achieved. The division into land units has been done by grouping land according to common physical, locational, and development characteristics. The land units have been grouped as follows: Land unit Description grouping Landform 1-7 These land units apply to particular types of landform, ranging from coastal cliffs and slopes, to forest and bush. The landform land units apply on Waiheke, Great Barrier, Ponui and Pakihi. Island residential There are two island residential land units. They apply to residential 1-2 development on smaller sites on Waiheke and Rakino. Commercial 1-7 These land units provide for a range of commerical activities from local shops to quarrying. These land units may be based around a particular location (ie Ostend or Oneroa) or a particular type of activity (ie local shops, wharf, or industrial). Five of the commercial land units apply only on Waiheke. Commercial 6 (quarry) applies to a quarry on Waiheke, a quarry on Great Barrier and to Karamuramu Island. Commercial 7 (wharf) applies to wharves on Waiheke, Great Barrier and Rakino. Matiatia (mixed The Matiatia land unit provides for mixed use development in a specific location use) on Waiheke. Open space 1-4 Open space 1 and 2 provide for particular types of recreation activity - local parks and esplanade reserves, and community facilities and sports parks. Open space 1 applies on Waiheke and Great Barrier. Open space 2 applies on Waiheke, Great Barrier and Rakino. Open space 3 (Rangihoua Park) and 4 (marae) focus on particular locations on Waiheke. Rural 1-3 Rural 1 and 2 apply on Waiheke. Rural 3 applies only on Rakino. Conservation This land unit applies to land used for conservation activities. It applies to Department of Conservation land, to the Whakanewha Regional Park owned by the Auckland Regional Council on Waiheke and to some privately owned land. Other islands Specific island based land units apply to Rotoroa and Pakatoa in recognition of the particular characteristics of these islands, including past activities and opportunities for future development. In this part, the land units appear in the same order as given in the above table. Auckland Council District Plan - Hauraki Gulf Islands Section - Operative Page 3 Part 10a - Land units: objectives, policies and activity tables 10a.2 Land unit - Landform 1 (coastal cliffs) 10a.2.1 Introduction This land unit is applied to steep, exposed coastal cliffs and offshore islets and stacks. Coastal cliffs is characterised by: • A steep, rugged, wild and dynamic landscape which defines the coastal margins. • Visual prominence due to its exposed coastal location. • Sparse vegetation, including cliff associations and unprotected remnant gully vegetation. • Instability, exposure, and varying degrees of erosion. • An absence of buildings or structures. Overall, coastal cliffs have high natural character values and a rugged, visually prominent landscape. 10a.2.2 Resource management issue The significant resource management issue which needs to be addressed in the Plan is: • How to protect the natural character and visual prominence of the coastal cliffs from the adverse effects of activities and buildings. 10a.2.3 Objectives 1. To protect the natural character and visual prominence of the coastal cliffs from the adverse effects of activities and buildings. 2. To, where possible, enhance or restore, the natural character and visual prominence of the coastal cliffs. 3. To protect coastal cliffs from the adverse effects of natural hazards. Policies 1. By protecting the coastal cliffs from modification by activities and buildings. 2. By requiring new sites to be of a size and nature that avoids adverse effects on the natural character, landscape values, and the visual prominence of the land unit. 10a.2.4 Resource management strategy The visual prominence and natural character value of this land unit is so high, that the resource management strategy is to not specifically provide for activities and buildings to occur at all and to require a large minimum site size for subdivision within the land unit. Rural property management plans are provided for as a discretionary activity in recognition of the long term management approach to development for a whole site that is expected from these plans. Some sites contain a range of different landform land units. It is therefore appropriate for

    STONYRIDGE VINEYARD Makers of ultra premium red wines on Waiheke Island Tasting Glass Bottle Cellar Door Stonyridge Sauvignon Blanc $3 $13 $50 $45 Waiheke Island 2017 The 2017 Sauvignon Blanc exhibits aromas of ripe tropical fruits, melon and gentle herbaceousness on the nose, while the palate shows great focus and texture from the partial barrel ferment. Perfect for immediate drinking, but will also cellar for up to three years. Stonyridge Reserve Chardonnay $5 $23 $105 $95 Waiheke Island 2017 This Waiheke Island Chardonnay is grown on our Vina del Mar Vineyard, overlooking Onetangi Bay, on an East facing slope protecting the fruit from the afternoon heat. On the nose this Chardonnay is rich and complex, with aromas of stonefruit and citrus, with a robust toasty French oak influence. The palate is rich and creamy, with soft acidity great volume and wonder- ful length. Stonyridge Airfield $4 $16 $75 $65 Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, Merlot Waiheke Island 2017 Airfield is the second label to the world famous Bordeaux blend, Larose. Airfield is made from the same quality fruit that will typically be used for Larose, but is a more forward fruit driven wine for the short to medium term. 2017 was another chal- lenging year in the vineyards on Waiheke, so the advantage of the free draining north facing slopes of Stonyridge were key to achieving the quality of the Airfield this year. The heat throughout the ripening period meant that flavour ripeness was easily achieved. On the nose the 2017 Airfield shows red currants, black cherry and fresh Mediterranean herbs, with subtle cedar French oak influence.

  • History of Winemaking on Waiheke Island
    History of Winemaking on Waiheke Island The lack of a fast ferry service meant that Waiheke Island remained an isolated community until the mid-1980s. Until that time the stretch of water separating the island from metropolitan Auckland was bridged by a slow and ancient steamboat, the Baroona , or by visiting pleasure boats enjoying one of the world’s great sailing grounds in the Hauraki Gulf. Commercial infrastructure – shops, roading and service industries – were non-existent in the 1970s when Kim and Jeanette Goldwater stepped ashore with a view to purchasing land at Putiki Bay. Attracted by the hotter, drier climate and poor soils that struggled to support drystock farming, they were the first to see the potential for grape growing and in 1978 they planted their first vines at Goldwater Estates. This was a time when the New Zealand wine industry was moving to the classical European varietals and away from the hybrid grapes which had sustained the fortified wines prevalent to that point. (There is evidence that one such vineyard planted in non-vinifera grapes had existed during the 1950s on Seaview Road, Onetangi, planted by the Gradiska family.) Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay were the varietals of choice in the late 70s and the Goldwaters quickly demonstrated their ability to produce high quality wines in this new environment. Kim’s demanding standards, both in the vineyard and the wine cellar, were rewarded by the approval of international and local wine writers and Waiheke began to be noticed. Following closely on the Goldwaters’ heels, Stephen White planted his Stonyridge Vineyard in the Onetangi Valley in 1982.

  • Biota of Seven Islets Off Waiheke Island, Inner Hauraki Gulf
    Tane 37: 99-136 (1999) BIOTA OF SEVEN ISLETS OFF WAIHEKE ISLAND, INNER HAURAKI GULF Michael Lee 29 Omiha Road, Omiha, Waiheke Island "He iti ra, he iti mapihi pounamu " - (although small - very precious) Te Hikitai SUMMARY Seven islets smaller than 1.0 ha lying off Waiheke Island in the inner Hauraki Gulf were biologically surveyed in 1996-97. Koi Islet is an important breeding site for red-billed gulls (Larus novaehollandiae), at least seven other species of seabirds and shorebirds, including reef heron (Egretta sacra), Caspian tern (Sterna caspia) and variable oystercatcher (Haemotopus unicolor). More than 250 birds were present over the summer season. Another islet Papakohatu, has a small coastal forest and is a breeding site for seven species of seabirds though in lesser numbers than on Koi. Lying 1200 m from the nearest land Papakohatu potentially has a significant conservation value. Reef heron also breed on Papakohatu and Passage Rock. Nani Islet is an important breeding site for white-fronted tern (Sterna striata). New Zealand dotterel (Charadrius obscurus) regularly breed on Kahakaha (Frenchmans Cap). Two islets Motukaha and Te Whau contain important Maori archaeological sites. What appears to be the old Maori name (Te Takapu) has been rediscovered for Passage Rock. Papakohatu and Motukaha are badly infested with rhamnus (Rhamnus alaternus) an aggressive exotic tree, which is probably reducing species diversity. These islets may form an invasion route for rhamnus from Motuihe to Waiheke Island. Rhamnus also has a foothold on Nani. Ecological values on these islets have been compromised probably by rodents which are likely to have destroyed original lizard populations, disrupted petrel breeding, suppressed or eliminated larger invertebrates, inhibited plant regeneration and predated bird nests.

  • Sustainable Tourism in Auckland with a Case Study of Waiheke Island
    Sustainable Tourism in Auckland with a case study of Waiheke Island Ronnie Xu Master of Professional Practice Otago Polytechnic Supported by ATEED (Auckland Tourism, Events and Economic Development) Contents 1. INTRODUCTION 1 2. SYNOPSIS AND BACKGROUND 4 3. RESEARCH PROCESS AND AIMS 16 4. WAIHEKES’S OVERVIEW 19 5. IMPACTS TO WAIHEKE TOURISM 23 6. STRATEGIES AND RECOMMENDATIONS 41 7. CONCLUSION 44 8. REFERENCES 45 1. Introduction Sustainable tourism can be defined as "Tourism that takes full account of its current and future economic, social and environmental impacts, addressing the needs of visitors, the industry, the environment and host communities" (United Nations World Tourism Organisation, 2005). When we read the “Transforming our world: the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development” and the “Sustainable Development in the 21st century (SD21), which were published by United Nations (UN), we can understand the significance, value, vision, goals and targets of sustainable development for the planet in the next decades. United Nations will take the bold and transformative steps which are urgently needed to shift the world onto a sustainable and resilient path. 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and 169 targets were announced which demonstrated the scale and ambition of this new universal Agenda. These goals are integrated and indivisible and balance the three dimensions of sustainable development: being economic, social and environmental. Furthermore, United Nations has declared 2017 as the International Year of Sustainable Tourism for Development and it has continued to promote this by World Tourism Organisation (UNWTO) since December 2015. There is a clear understanding for its goal and relation to “the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development”.

  • Hauraki Gulf Islands
    SECTION 32 REPORT REVIEW OF INDIGENOUS VEGETATION CLEARANCE CONTROLS – HAURAKI GULF ISLANDS 1.0 Background 1.1 Introduction In 1999, the Council commissioned Hill Young Cooper Limited to undertake a review of the indigenous vegetation clearance, earthworks, and lot coverage controls applying in the Hauraki Gulf Islands Section of the Council’s District Plan (‘the Plan’). The Plan has been operative since June 1996 and this work was commissioned as part of a progressive review. Hill Young Cooper was asked to focus on whether the practical application of the rules actually achieved the stated outcomes. In its report1, Hill Young Cooper suggested several changes to the existing indigenous vegetation clearance controls. In particular, it recommended to reduce or increase the amount of vegetation clearance permitted for differing land units to ensure the controls were more consistent with stated objectives and policies. The consent thresholds could then be better linked to the adverse environmental effects of indigenous vegetation clearance i.e. erosion, loss of natural habitats and ecology etc. Building on the conclusions of the Hill Young Cooper report, the Council prepared a draft Plan Change in October 2001, however, it did not proceed to the Planning and Regulatory Committee as it did not satisfactorily address the findings of the Auditor General’s report2. The Auditor General’s report found that the indigenous vegetation clearance rules were causing difficulty as they are generally more restrictive than that of previous plans. Therefore, particular sectors of the community, particularly farmers, felt disadvantaged due to the strict permitted clearance controls and the relative cost of obtaining a resource consent.
