Foreword
We are pleased to present the Taranaki Regional Council’s 2020/2021 Annual Plan, which has a firm focus on
stability in uncertain times while taking into account the challenges and opportunities that will continue to arise
from the COVID-19 pandemic.
We’re budgeting for no change in general rates (0% rather than 3.8% as originally proposed). With the disruption
caused by the
Plan.
Resolved
That the Taranaki Regional Council:
a) receives this memorandum on the consideration and adoption of the 2020/2021
Annual Plan
b) confirms a nil general rates increase for 2020/2021
c) notes the balanced budget deficit for 2020/2021 and confirms the transfer from the
dividend Equalisation Reserve to fund the balanced budget deficit.
d) notes that the use of the Dividend Equalisation Reserve to fund the balanced
budget surpluses and deficits balances out …
sustainable development of the
region’s resources.
1.1.4 Evaluation of environmental performance
Besides discussing the various details of the performance and extent of compliance by the consent holders,
this report also assigns a rating as to each Company’s environmental and administrative performance during
the period under review. The rating categories are high, good, improvement required and poor for both
environmental and administrative performance. The interpretations for these ratings are
participants indicated that they were from outside the region. This is comparable
to the 2018 statistics NZ results which show that for residents in Taranaki, 67% are in the
New Plymouth District, 8% in Stratford, and 23% in South Taranaki. While there is a slight
over, representation in New Plymouth, the spread across the different districts is generally
good.
The district demographic question was a required field and so there was a 100% response
rate from the survey group.

Waihi Reef, another site impacted by sand inundation, had a
very likely decreasing trend that did not change following a
correction for sand inundation, suggesting that this decline
is being driven by other factors. A very likely increasing
trend was found for the Manihi Reef site, and no trend
was found for Tūrangi Reef. The trend with the greatest
rate of change was the sand-adjusted trend at Orapa Reef,

discussing the various details of the performance and extent of compliance by the consent holders,
this report also assigns a rating as to each Company’s environmental and administrative performance during
the period under review. The rating categories are high, good, improvement required and poor for both
environmental and administrative performance. The interpretations for these ratings are found in
Appendix IV.
For reference, in the 2021-2022 year, consent holders were found to achieve a high

accordance with section 79 of the Act, determines that it does not require further
information, further assessment of options or further analysis of costs and
benefits, or advantages and disadvantages prior to making a decision on this
matter.
