The Existing Situation urbanism + Regional Context • More a rural coastal town Whangarei than a rural service centre. • High population growth Marsden Point over the past 5-10 years. • High proportion of holiday Waipu homes but increasing permanent residents.

The Mangawhai Community Plan Vision urbanism + Mangawhai will grow well. While we grow, we shall care for nature, encourage a slow pace and active lifestyle, and retain the coastal character and history. Strategic Response 1 nature protect and enhance biodiversity links, waterways, and the coastal area. celebrate M ā ori culture and make local history visible. 2 iwi and heritage provide efficient, clean infrastructure that will serve the 3 three waters community well into the future. direct growth outcomes which support community needs and 4 living housing choices. strengthen , enable and connect the local community through 5 community facilities and programmes. support the local economy, and attract more visitors, 6 employment entrepreneurs, and employment uses. improve safe walking and cycling options, and manage 7 transport vehicular traffic. 8

Natural Environment urbanism + protect and enhance biodiversity links, waterways, and the coastal area Biodiversity Waterways Coastal character 10
Natural Environment urbanism + Existing Situation • There is a lack of scientific information about the state of the environment. • There are few vegetated open spaces and linkages within the existing urban areas, other than by the Golf Course. 11
Natural Environment urbanism + Existing Situation • Mangrove management is contentious. • The Regional Policy regarding coastal environment is currently under review. 12
Natural Environment urbanism + Recommendations • Produce Catchment Management Plans that: Whangarei District - Identify ecological Tanekaha Track Entrance Bream tail farm (Access via King Road) conditions. Kiwi zone - Promote urban land care. - Establish ecological Gumdigger corridors. Mangawhai Golf Track Course Wetland Garbolino Road Legend Ecological value Landscape/amenity value PNAP (coastal and rural) Native vegetation Coastal and riparian value Ecological corridor and linkage Coastal Buffer Rivers and Streams Auckland District Walking tracks Mangawhai Central Connect with riparian margin and streams 13 Main roads
Natural Environment urbanism + Recommendations • More walkways along streams and reserves. • Consider economic opportunities from innovation around conservation.
Iwi and cultural urbanism + celebrate Māori culture and make local history visible Iwi narrative Archaeological sites History and heritage 15
Iwi and cultural urbanism + Mangawhai Community Plan • Protect archaeological sites of significance to Māori, particularly around the coastline and along ridgelines. • Provide interpretation of these sites. Spatial Plan Consultation • Create awareness of Te Uri O Hau history in Mangawhai. • Te Uri O Hau – Kaitiakitanga is an overarching kaupapa with the effects on the harbour and wider environment central i.e. water quality and habitat protection/ enhancement. • Kohanga Reo and Kura Kaupapa Māori to be part of education campus • Archaeological sites and extent of place – map, provide stories, interpretation to inform public. • Retail development provided to fit within the character of the area through the way it is designed. • Ecological maps need to be updated. • Create cultural heritage trails that promote Te Uri O Hau’s traditional, spiritual, historical and cultural heritage and values throughout Mangawhai. 16 16
Iwi and cultural urbanism + Recommendations • Identify and • Work with Te Uri O protect all Hau to tell their archaeological story and interpret sites in the their sites. Mangawhai Area. • Provide context to the history and approach to future development around identified sites. Garbolino Road Te Ika Ranganui Legend Identified Pa site Cultural site Potential Whaharau Carving of sting ray which is a symbol for War zone (Ko Iwi) Mangawhai Cultural narrative linkages Area of cultural significance Cultural walkway Old jetty 17 Mangawhai Central
Iwi and cultural urbanism + Recommendations • Tell story of the 1800’s settlers and the history of shipping, farming, logging and the Kauri gum industries.
urbanism + Three Waters provide efficient, clean infrastructure that will serve the community well into the future Waste water Storm water Water supply 19
Three waters urbanism + Existing situation • A 10-20 year upgrade for additional 7-10,000 population is under investigation • Wastewater capacity for 1,000 more properties (6-7 years). • The current zoning already provides for more than 1,000 properties • There is a shortfall even without the provision of additional growth land. • Water supply is limited and mainly via rain tanks. 20
Wastewater urbanism + Recommendations Progress waste water strategy, including considering options for: • Disposal. • Alternative funding. • Re-use of treated waste water (irrigation of parks, firefighting etc.) • Latest technological advances. 21
Stormwater urbanism + Recommendations Develop a stormwater Catchment Management Plan (CMP) and engineering standards, consider: • Groundwater conditions and capacity of land to accommodate additional development. • Rules to ensure future development increases riparian planting and protection of waterways and the coastal edge. • The use of wetlands for the collection and management of stormwater, consider Pond used for stormwater collection in Mangawhai Mangawhai Community Park, the Golf Course. • Fewer stormwater outflows into the estuary to the east of Wood Street. • Rules to manage overland flow paths and flooding. • Low Impact Design (LID) Stormwater management to achieve hydrological neutrality. Pond used for stormwater collection in Mangawhai 22
