Ngāi Te Rangi Iwi e-Pānui View this email in your browser     Matakana Island Environment Court Hearing In May 2017, Ngā Hapū o Ngā Moutere o Matakana were forced to return to the Environment Court for a week long hearing  to defend Te Ure o Kotikoti (Barrier side of Matakana Island) from Regional Council planning rules that would enable greater residential development pressure on Matakana Island.   Ngā Hapū o Ngā Moutere o Matakana presented evidence setting out the cultural values and significance of Matakana Island and Te Ure o Kotikoti to seek change to the planning rules to elevate all of Te Ure o Kotikoti to an “Outstanding Natural Feature and Landscape”.   Evidence was presented by Dr Hauata Palmer, Paora Stanley, Ngaraima Taingahue, Brendon Taingahue, Jason Murray along with expert planning and landscape evidence.  All of the witnesses represented their whānau and hapū well.   The significance of the changes sought by Ngā Hapū o Ngā Moutere o Matakana, if granted by the Court, would mean that adverse effects on the natural character of Te Ure o Kotikoti would need to be avoided by any developer.  This in turn would make residential development on Te Ure o Kotikoti extremely difficult.   The Environment Court will take a couple of months to release its decision and Ngāi Te Rangi stand in support of our Matakana hapū in anticipation of a favourable result.

So, I moved back here and studied radio. As a result I started in promotions with The Radio Network. I was attracted initially to the programming and production side of radio, creating playlists, programs, features and ads. The opportunity then came to work at Moana Radio. I was looking to broaden my knowledge and improve my Reo Māori, and I was keen to work in a Māori environment, so this would give a chance to do both work and study whilst building my base for my own station. The greatest piece of advice you have ever received. "Don't be afraid to fail" "Kia ū te manawarere!" "Give it a go- feel the fear and charge it anyway!" "Tū whiti te hopo!"
