Title: Bylaw leads to drop in freedom camping complaints Author: Christchurch city council When accessed: 16th March, 2018 https://www.ccc.govt.nz/news-and-events/newsline/show/1470

Which research question is the information gathered relevant to? Question 2: What are peoples points of view abut freedom camping? Question 3: What social actions have people taken on the issue of freedom camping?

Primary or Secondary source of information

Under the Freedom Camping Act 2011 Act, freedom camping is considered to be a permitted activity everywhere in a local authority (or Department of Conservation Area (DOC)) area, except at those sites where it is specifically prohibited or restricted. The Act allows Council to adopt a bylaw to restrict or prohibit camping. Many local authorities have introduced bylaws in response to complaints made from the public about some of the sites being left in a mess, damaged, vandalised or over utilised. The Christchurch City Council is pleased with the introduction of the bylaws within its city. The bylaw banned all non-self contained freedom camping throughout the district, including Banks Peninsula, but allowed certified self-contained freedom camping without a time restriction in rural zones. Christchurch City Council Chief Executive Karleen Edwards said the Council’s compliance and investigation team had been conducting daily freedom camping monitoring inspections since the bylaw came into effect and have issued a total of 66 infringement notices. “There has been a noticeable reduction in the number of complaints received in relation to freedom camping. The number of non-compliant campers to date is approximately half compared with the same period last year,’’ Dr Edwards said.

Summary of information: This information is about what councils have done to combat the freedom camping issue. Councils have put in place by-laws to restrict freedom campers in certain areas in their cities. Points of view obtained from the source The Christchurch City Council believes that there has been a reduction in the complaints in relation to freedom camping because of the bylaws being put in place.

Information about actions taken by the groups/individuals The Christchurch City Council introduced a bylaw throughout the Christchurch are including banks peninsula which banned non-self contained vehicles from camping in freedom camping spots. This was designed to help prevent mess and over utilisation of the spots from freedom campers.

Ethical procedures followed Information was from the council site itself so it is likely to be reputable. I checked it against a NZ Herald article which essentially gave the same information

Primary or secondary Interview with Chris, a freedom camper May I use your name in my report? Yea sure. What do you think a freedom camper is? Someone who does not camp in the conventional places but used alternative areas, whilst still being respectful of the environment and other people. Do do you think there is controversy about freedom camping? If yes, why? If no, why? In some areas yes. Some freedom campers are not respecting the idea that we protect the environment for future generations and if they muck up more laws will come in. As a New Zealander, I get annoyed that I am getting more and more restricted because some people aren’t doing the right thing. I do however think there are some people out there who just don’t want more tourists and they will moan about everything. What do you think should be done about freedom camping? I like some of the bylaws about self containment but even then there is often a mess left. I guess we have to educate tourists about our rules and hope they respond in kind. I do think that tourist campers should not be allowed to camp in freedom spots. They must camp in conventional places or DOC sites which have facilities. The reason for this is that it is good for the economy and some of the sites are left for NZ tourists to enjoy. It is getting harder to find those cool out of the way places. Mind you we as a nation can be pretty hard on the environment too. Have you seen the rubbish dumped on the side of the road? That is not tourists! Explanation of relevance: Chris has a range of view on freedom camping but largely wants campers to do the right thing. This information could help me answer question 2: What are the points of view about the issue of freedom camping. Chris goes on to suggest there be a rule for overseas tourists and a rule for New Zealanders. This information will help me answer question 3: What social actions have people taken on the issue of freedom camping? Ethical procedures followed Open ended questions that allow for the interviewee to give what they think Asking for permission to use the interviewees name.

Controversy over Maori street name By Andre Chumko | May 24, 2017

Lower Hutt residents are split over a decision to name a new street in the suburb of Maungaraki after the Maori name for New Zealand’s native falcon – Karearea.

A Hutt City Council city development committee decided earlier this month to name the new private street Karearea Lane over alternatives which included Falcon Lane and Camel Hump Lane.

The carriageway is part of Otamarau Grove in Maungaraki and has five properties, including three private residences and two council reserves. Development of a former property on the street would create three new residential properties, meaning the carriageway, which would have eight properties, would become a private lane.

Otamarau Grove resident Ben x, whose house was on the new lane, told the committee the Maori name was problematic. “Having too many names that are difficult for an everyday person to remember or be able to even write down can be problematic. At the moment we live on Otamarau Grove, a very nice name, which is in Maungaraki. If I was to have a courier deliver us a parcel at the moment it’s rather difficult. It’s nothing against a Maori name, it’s just being practical.”

Despite the plea, the committee unanimously approved Karearea.

Otamarau Grove resident , whose house was also on the new street, said he and his wife were pleased with the decision. “Every country has got a falcon. You can have Falcon Lane anywhere in the world but our bush falcon is a bit special and unique to New Zealand.” said he had been living in Maungaraki for 17 years and submitted Karearea Lane as a potential name to council as he had falcons living near his house. “This year they had a young fledgling. Most days if you’re at home you’ll either see them or hear them. They’re an important member of the neighbourhood.”

Wainuomata ward councillor Josh Briggs, who sat in on the committee, said the indigenous name was the appropriate decision. “If the rationale for naming a street after an indigenous bird is because it’s the natural feature then you should be using the

believes it is impractical to have a name change and he also believes there are already Maori names as the Grove has a Maori name.

believes it is great to have a name change. He thinks the Maori names are unique to NZ and should be used.

Josh believes that it is important to use the correct words and that companies who deliver to customers on Maori named streets will be response to the changes.

The focus of my inquiry is Maori place name changes. I am going to look into

1) The points of view about this. 2) The actions people have taken.

Hamilton City Council might be getting a new name.

Mayor Andrew King is testing the waters with Kirikiriroa City Council – a name he said reflects stronger links with iwi.

King's fellow councillors say the idea came out of left field but a local hapū spokesman sees it as a chance to re-examine Hamilton's identity.

Primary or secondary Interview with Kaumatua at our school March 16th 2018 Can I use your name in my report? No I would like to remain anonymous What is your opinion about place name being changed to Maori place name? I guess as a Maori person I think it is important to see the place names of our past used. I would hope that New Zealanders generally would like to honour the tradition and man of the original Maori names. We are lucky in New Zealand as Maori is spoken nowhere else in the world. What a wonderful thing to have our language spread everywhere in New Zealand and used. Have you been involved in any actions to have names changed? I was very vocal with the change of the “h” into Whanganui. I petitioned the council along with many others. I felt passionate about doing something in my lifetime to forward Te Reo. It was so wonderful when it was decided t o be changed. Now it feels commonplace. I would love to get involved in the Hamilton action. I think they have just started talking about it and it would be great if this process was pushed along quickly. Explanation of relevance: Anonymous (Kaumatua at my school) believes that it is important to change the European names back into the traditional Maori names. This will help me answer question 1: The points of view about this. Ethical procedures followed: Used anonymous in my report

More templates of this calibre would be needed for Low Achieved.

Primary or secondary Kaiti School pupils and staff presented a petition to Mayor Meng Foon in July 2013. The report said the Kaiti children felt the name Poverty Bay limited their aspirations and had negative connotations. The report said Poverty Bay was a recorded name rather than an official name, and was named by British explorer James Cook on his visit in 1769 because as he put it, the place “afforded us no one thing we wanted”. Nearly four years after pupils from Kaiti School petitioned for Poverty Bay to be known as Turanganui a Kiwa, local politicians might agree to act, after a new report that suggests the idea be floated publicly.
