Report of / Te Pou Matua:

Mansour Johari, Passenger Transport Engineer (Mansour.Johari@ccc.govt.nz)

General Manager / Pouwhakarae:

Mary Richardson, General Manager Citizens & Community (Mary.Richardson@ccc.govt.nz)

 

 

1.   Nature of Decision or Issue and Report Origin

1.1       The purpose of this report is for the Waimaero Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewood Community Board to approve the relocation of a bus stop on the east side of Clyde Road that is currenlty outside 86 Clyde Road to outside 82 and 84 Clyde Road.

1.2       This report is staff generated in response to a resident requesting that a bus stop be relocated from outside 86 Clyde Road due to a conflict with a driveway.

1.3       The decision in this report is of low significance in relation to the Christchurch City Council’s Significance and Engagement Policy.  The level of significance was determined by considering the criteria set out in the Council’s Significance and Engagement Policy.

 

2.   Officer Recommendations Ngā Tūtohu

That the Waimāero Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewood Community Board:

1.         Pursuant to Clause 7 of the Christchurch City Council Traffic and Parking Bylaw 2017 and as shown on Attachment A:

a.         That parking be restricted to 120 minutes on the east side of Clyde Road commencing at a point 143 metres south of its intersection with Kotare Street and extending in a southerly direction for a distance of 30.5 metres. 

b.         That the stopping of vehicles is prohibited at all times on the east side of Clyde Road commencing at a point 182 metres south of its intersection with Kotare Street and extending in a southerly direction for a distance of 4 metres.

c.         That a bus stop be installed on the east side of Clyde Road commencing at a point 186 metres south of its intersection with Kotare Street and extending in a southerly direction for a distance of 14 metres. 

d.         That the stopping of vehicles is prohibited at all times on the east side of Clyde Road commencing at a point 200 metres south of its intersection with Kotare Street and extending in a southerly direction for a distance of 3 metres.    

e.         That bus stop facilities including a hardstand area, a set of directional and warning tactile pavers, a bus stop sign, and a seat are installed at the bus stop on the east side of Clyde Road as shown on Attachment A.

2.         That any previous resolutions pertaining to traffic controls made pursuant to any bylaw to the extent that they are in conflict with the traffic controls described in 1. are revoked.

3.         That these resolutions take effect when the traffic control devices that evidence the restrictions described in 1. are in place (or removed, in the case of revocations).

 

3.   Reason for Report Recommendations Ngā Take mō te Whakatau

3.1       The advantages of this option include:

·   By providing no stopping lines before and after the bus box vehicles do not obstruct buses pulling into and out of the bus stop. This is particularly important is it allows a bus to pull up close and parallel to the kerb, which reduces the step distance between the footpath kerb and the bus. The current bus stop is not line marked to council standards.

·   A continuous, unobstructed footpath is necessary for both the front and rear doors of the bus, ensuring that passengers can board and alight safely. Currently, the bus stop at 86 Clyde Road is compromised by a driveway, causing passengers to step on and off the bus within the driveway itself. This not only poses safety concerns, but also results in a larger-than-recommended height difference between the footpath and bus entrance due to the dropped kerb design for the vehicle crossing. By relocating the bus stop to a more suitable location, accessibility for all passengers will be significantly improved, as the footpath will no longer be obstructed by a driveway and the height difference between the footpath and bus entrance will adhere to the recommended specifications for bus stop design. The proposed changes minimize the conflict between waiting bus passengers and vehicles exiting the driveways while sightlines are improved for vehicles exiting the driveways.

3.2       The disadvantages of this option include:

·   Re-allocation of on-street parking provision in order for the bus stop to adhere to the recommended bus stop length.

 

4.   Alternative Options Considered Ētahi atu Kōwhiringa

4.1       Option 2 – Do nothing and the existing street conditions will remain as is.

4.2       No alternative options for relocating the bus stop were considered, as the driveway spacing along Clyde Road made it challenging to identify a suitable location that would not obstruct access to driveways when a bus is stopped.

5.   Detail Te Whakamahuki

5.1       All bus stops are planned and implemented in accordance with the Christchurch Bus Stop Guidelines (2009) and the Christchurch City Council’s Construction Standard Specifications (2018).

Public Consultation Te Tukanga Kōrerorero

 

5.2       The consultation period for the proposed bus stop changes occurred from 28 November 2022 to 16 December 2023. The consultation catchment area is shown in Figure 1. Letters were posted to the affected properties (both tenants and owners) in the consultation catchment area.

Figure 1: consultation catchment area

5.3       An email was sent to all members of the Environment Canterbury Public Transport Stakeholder Groups (PTSRG and ARG) on the 5th of January, seeking feedback by the 3rd of February.

5.4       Environment Canterbury support the proposed changes. Staff also received two submissions of support and one submission against the relocation of the bus stop.

5.5       Below are three redacted submissions received from residents and property owners in the consultation catchment area.

·   “We heartily support this proposal. We live at redacted, and there are 8 houses on the driveway who are frequently impeded by either buses or passengers accidentally blocking or standing in the driveway. Moving it to 82 where there are no driveways makes perfect sense. We also note that on a Tuesday night, the entire bus stop is lined with rubbish bins due to the number of properties adjoining the bus stop.”

·   “I am against having the bus stop moved to outside 82 Clyde Road. As the resident of 82a (since 1993) Clyde Road the congestion is already terrible there as the turning lane begins there, as well for traffic turning into and out of arts road onto Clyde Road. I think if it was to be moved it would be best further down Clyde Road across from the university approx. outside 75 Clyde Road there it won’t impact the residents or traffic as much as the road view is more accessible to traffic parking and pulling out onto Clyde Road.”

·   “I think moving the bus stop makes sense, as it will no longer impede the driveway of 86 Clyde Road. However, whilst you are making the changes I would like to propose that the car park as indicated in my attachment be made no parking with a yellow dotted line (or possibly a P3 parking space?). The reason for this is that when cars are currently parked there (which is all the time), it restricts access to my driveway which redacted. I have a very tight driveway, and vehicles often have to take a wide berth when coming from the North direction, which causes crossing the centre line of Clyde Road, and frustrates drivers behind the turning vehicle. It is a very busy road.

Figure 2: Proposed no stopping outside 86 Clyde Road.

5.6       In response to the submission against the relocation of the bus stop, council staff considered other alternative locations for the bus stop. However, there were no suitable locations found for the bus stop due to driveway spacing.

5.7       Staff investigated removing one parking space outside 86 Clyde Road as outlined in figure 2. However, this option was dismissed because there is ample space for parking a car at this location. Furthermore, relocating the bus stop would slightly increase the available parking space in this area.

5.8       Figures 3 and 4 illustrate the modifications made to the concept drawing following the conclusion of the consultation period. The proposed bus stop has been relocated four metres north of the driveway of 82 Clyde Road, enhancing sightlines for vehicles exiting the driveway and moving waiting passengers further from the driveway area. The change required no further consultation as per Council’s consultation policy.

Policy Consistency Te Whai Kaupapa here

6.4       The decision is consistent with Council’s Plans and Policies.

Impact on Mana Whenua Ngā Whai Take Mana Whenua

6.5       The decision does not involve a significant decision in relation to ancestral land or a body of water or other elements of intrinsic value, therefore this decision does not specifically impact Mana Whenua, their culture and traditions.

Climate Change Impact Considerations Ngā Whai Whakaaro mā te Āhuarangi

6.6       Public transport is a key provision to support mode shift, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, traffic congestion and traffic crashes. Measures that promote the use of public transport make it a more attractive travel option, thereby supporting mode shift and associated benefits to the environment.

Accessibility Considerations Ngā Whai Whakaaro mā te Hunga Hauā

6.7       Accessibility by access to opportunities: The proposed relocated bus stop will have a positive impact to the well-being and accessibility of our community through freedom to access opportunities by means other than private vehicles.

6.8       Accessibility by inclusive design:

·   The relocated bus stop proposed improves the accessibility of public transport to the community by reducing the height between the footpath and the bus entrance.

·   Improvements to the overall length of the bus stop improves the operational performance of the buses that use the bus stop.

7.   Resource Implications Ngā Hīraunga Rauemi

Capex/Opex Ngā Utu Whakahaere

7.1       Cost to Implement - $10,000 for the bus stop improvements and parking restrictions, plus $2,000 for the planning, consultation, and preparation of this report.

7.2       Maintenance/Ongoing costs - Transport Unit Operational Expenditure budgets, includes maintenance of bus stop infrastructure, which adds up to approximately $230 annually.

7.3       Funding Source - Traffic Operations, Capital Expenditure budget for bus stop, seating, and shelter installations.

7.4       If approved, the recommendations will be implemented during this financial year.

8.   Legal Implications Ngā Hīraunga ā-Ture

Statutory power to undertake proposals in the report Te Manatū Whakahaere Kaupapa

8.1       The relevant Community Board or Committee have delegated authority from the Council to exercise the delegations as set out in the Register of Delegations. The list of delegations for the Community Boards includes the resolutions of:

·   Stopping, standing, and parking restrictions (including bus stops) under Clause 7 of the Traffic and Parking Bylaw 2017.

Other Legal Implications Ētahi atu Hīraunga-ā-Ture

8.2       The legal consideration is that the installation of any signs and/or markings associated with traffic control devices must comply with the Land Transport Rule: Traffic Control Devices 2004.

8.3       This report has not been reviewed and approved by the Legal Services Unit.

9.   Risk Management Implications Ngā Hīraunga Tūraru

9.1       Should the Community Board proceed with Option 2, the do-nothing option:

·   The current bus stop is undersized and the location of an on-street parking space directly in front of the bus box it is likely the bus will continue to block the driveway of nine households on Clyde Road

·   The front door of the bus will continue to coincide with a driveway.

·   The bus will not be able to pull up close and parallel to the kerb as the existing bus stop is not line marked to council’s standards.

·   There will not be any improvements to accessibility at this location.

General Manager / Pouwhakarae:

Mary Richardson, General Manager Citizens & Community (Mary.Richardson@ccc.govt.nz)

 

 

1.   Nature of Decision or Issue and Report Origin

1.1       This report presents a landscape design for approval to modify Avonhead Park so that large volumes of surface water created by extreme rainfall events can be better managed so reducing the risk of flooding residential properties next to the park.

1.2       This report is staff generated.

1.3       The decision in this report is of low significance in relation to the Christchurch City Council’s Significance and Engagement Policy.  The level of significance was determined by taking into account that the decision deals with a bespoke solution for a single park and a local community, as opposed to being a city-wide solution for all residents.

1.4       For the landscape design plan to be implemented, a decision of the Board is required.

 

2.   Officer Recommendations Ngā Tūtohu

That the Waimāero Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewood Community Board:

1.         approve the recommendation to plan and implement the proposed surface water management solution for Avonhead Park, subject to identification of the appropriate budget within the existing Community Parks Capital programme.

 

3.   Reason for Report Recommendations Ngā Take mō te Whakatau

3.1       July 2022 was the wettest month (of any month) on record in Christchurch. A total of 310 mm of rain was recorded and this was the first time that more than 300 mm of rain was observed in one month since records began in 1863 (source: NIWA). This amount of rainfall represents around half of the rain that Christchurch typically receives over the course of one year.

3.2       The consequence of this extreme rainfall was that Avonhead Park experienced severe flooding along the Park’s boundary with Hatfield Place. Several residents had to take emergency measures and hire pumps to stop floodwater entering their properties. Those worst affected have been in regular contact with Council staff to request if any help can be provided to prevent a similar occurrence.

3.3       We regard the extreme rainfall event and its possible mitigation presented in this report not only as a means of providing a sustainable drainage management framework for parks development but also as a means of designing climate change resiliency into parks management, not least by meeting the goals of the recently adopted Urban Forest Plan.


 

 

4.   Alternative Options Considered Ētahi atu Kōwhiringa

4.1       Option 1 – Plan is not approved.

4.1.1   Advantage:

4.1.2   If the Community Board has significant concerns with the plans, they would have the opportunity to make changes.

4.1.3   Disadvantage:

4.1.4   The risk of heavy rainfall causing flooding in nearby properties remains a very high risk. Indeed, a significant rainfall event over the weekend of 22/23 July 2023 and again on 16 August 2023 caused a similar level of flooding on the park, of great concern and distress to the residents on Hatfield Place. Doing nothing has significant reputational consequences.

4.2       Option 2 – Install a bunded swale along the boundary fence line between Hatfield Place and the Park to collect surface storm water and discharge the resultant surface run-off into the existing storm water network.

4.2.1   Advantage:

4.2.2   This would be a less expensive option than implementing the full proposed plan and could be used to determine if the full proposed plan is required. Note that a variant of option 2 will be required regardless as it will form part of the erosion and sediment control plan for the full proposed plan.

4.2.3   Disadvantage:

4.2.4   This option is not guaranteed to work in the long term. Moreover, it deals with trying to solve the entire surface water problem at the lowest part of the park rather than designing to intercept surface water at multiple locations across the park. There are only two outlets to the existing storm water network available, these being a sump at the northern end of the proposed bunded swale under the existing pylons and the water course at the southern end of the park. After consulting with CCC stormwater engineers, ecologists and planners, increasing water discharge into these outlets during a storm event would not be approved due to network capacity concerns. Installing a bunded swale without an improved outlet could simply result in shifting the flood risk downstream or onto other properties around the park.

5.   Detail Te Whakamahuki

5.1       We have commissioned parks, landscape and engineering specialists to work on a long-term solution for the park to prevent discharge of surface water beyond the park boundaries.

5.2       A landscape concept design layout is attached. This solution has required significant water modelling and engineering input given the huge volumes of surface water that have been generated on the park during recent unprecedented rainfall events.

5.3       The solution involves a series of swales and bunds to break up the park into smaller catchment areas, coupled with extensive tree planting, taking into account the overhead and buried power lines crossing through the park. This solution fits very well into the recently adopted urban forest plan where we are now required to create on average a 40% canopy coverage in CCC parks.

5.4       However, the solution will work only if it is possible to generate increased soakage to ground in selected planted hollows, which in turn requires authorisation to use CCC’s comprehensive stormwater consent. Without being able to use the comprehensive stormwater consent, we would have to apply for a bespoke consent through ECan which we are reliably advised by CCC planners would not be granted in the foreseeable future. Three pieces of information are required to gain approval to use CCC’s comprehensive stormwater consent:

·    the final design of the planted hollows

·    proof that the surface run-off water quality is not contaminated.

·    a guarantee that no pesticides will be used on the park.

5.5       We have identified locations for the planted hollows in the park as recommended by the landscape architect and engineers have completed soakage testing in these areas in order to determine the size of the hollows required to deal with a pre-determined quantity of surface water run-off.

5.6       We have completed surface run-off water quality testing to prove it is not contaminated.

5.7       We have obtained a written guarantee from the Head of Parks that no pesticides will be used on the park (pesticides have not been used on the park for years).

5.8       We have held meetings with the sports users of the park (FC2011 and Canterbury Baseball) and informed them of the proposed works that will be carried out on the park and gained their support.

5.9       CCC engagement have produced an information flyer and distributed it to all residents along Hatfield Place as well as on-line. No feedback or submissions have been received from the public to date.

5.10    Note though that the full implementation of the plan does not need to be carried out all at once. It can be a progressive implementation. 

5.11    The decision affects the following wards/Community Board areas:

Impact on Mana Whenua Ngā Whai Take Mana Whenua

6.6       The decision does not involve a significant decision in relation to ancestral land or a body of water or other elements of intrinsic value, as the proposed works are not located within a cultural overlay. Therefore, this decision does not specifically impact Mana Whenua, their culture and traditions.

6.7       The decision involves a matter of interest to Mana Whenua and will not impact on our agreed partnership priorities with Ngā Papatipu Rūnanga

6.8       Mana Whenua values, as expressed in the Mahaanui Iwi Management Plan, have been incorporated into the Urban Forest Plan.  These planting plans are part of the implementation of this plan.

6.9.1   Contribute positively to adaptation to the impacts of climate change.

6.9.2   Contribute positively to emissions reductions.

6.10    The plans will result in an increase in canopy cover across the city.  As trees sequester carbon, this will have a positive impact on the Councils emissions reduction.

6.11    Trees will be planted with a setback from paths, properties and sports fields to avoid issues relating to shade, roots and adjacent infrastructure.

7.   Resource Implications Ngā Hīraunga Rauemi

Capex/Opex Ngā Utu Whakahaere

7.1       Cost to Implement – high level budget estimate for full implementation: $600,000

7.2       Maintenance/Ongoing costs – likely to reduce due to reduction in mown grass area in the park

7.3       Funding Source – capex: This is an un-budged project, for this to proceed parks will need to source funding.  We will look within our Community Parks Development Capital programme to identify funding to enable us to proceed to market. The Community Board and Key stakeholders will be kept informed of progress.

8.   Legal Implications Ngā Hīraunga ā-Ture

Statutory power to undertake proposals in the report Te Manatū Whakahaere Kaupapa

8.1       Council has the delegation to plant trees within the park and carry out sports field development work in parks under the Local Government Act.

Other Legal Implications Ētahi atu Hīraunga-ā-Ture

8.2       There is no legal context, issue or implication relevant to this decision.

9.   Risk Management Implications Ngā Hīraunga Tūraru

9.1       The greatest risk to this project is the on-going uncertainty related to changing weather patterns associated with climate change, and designing a cost-effective natural drainage system that balances the rate of soakage to ground with using the sports fields and bunds to temporarily hold water until it drains away.

3.   Key Points Ngā Take Matua

Strategic Alignment Te Rautaki Tīaroaro

3.1       The recommendation is strongly aligned to the Strategic Framework and in particular the strategic priority of Strengthening Communities. It will provide a strong sense of community, active participation in civic life, safe and healthy communities, celebration of our identity through arts, culture, heritage and sport, valuing the voices of children and young people.

Decision Making Authority Te Mana Whakatau

3.2       The Community Board has the delegated authority to determine the allocation of its Summer with your Neighbours funding.

Assessment of Significance and Engagement Te Aromatawai Whakahirahira

3.3       The decisions in this report are of low significance in relation to the Christchurch City Council’s Significance and Engagement Policy.

3.4       The level of significance was determined by the number of people affected and/or with an interest.

3.5       Due to the assessment of low significance, no further community engagement and consultation is required.

Discussion Kōrerorero

3.6       At its meeting on 7 August 2023, the Waimāero Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewood Community Board resolved to allocate $3,500 from its 2023-24 Discretionary Response Fund towards Summer with your Neighbours 2023-24.

3.7       Summer with your Neighbours is about bringing people closer together and celebrating the unique and diverse mix of each neighbourhood. It invites residents to consider if they have ever wanted to organise a neighbourhood gathering, or to get to know the people who live close to them. This popular event has grown from year to year and is promoted by the Council.

3.8       Local community groups, including Residents' Associations and Neighbourhood Support groups, have been sent information inviting them to apply for the Summer with your Neighbours funding.  Staff also promoted the fund through social media and other networks.

3.9       Summer with your Neighbours will run from 21 October 2023 to 31 March 2024.  Applications for funding opened on 13 July 2023 and closed on 11 August 2023.

3.10    By the closing date, 34 eligible applications had been received.  Staff have assessed the applications to ensure that they met the Summer with your Neighbours guidelines and have recommended amounts to be allocated to 32 of the 34 applications.

3.11    Two applications have been recommended by staff as declines:

-      Yaldhurst Model School PTA.

-      Kidsfirst Kindergarten Hawthornden.

The reasons for the recommendations of a decline for each of the two applications are:

-      Due to the limited funding available.

-      Under the Summer with your Neighbours Guidelines, it states: "Because it is intended to 'bring neighbours together', applications from individuals getting together and holding a local gathering will take priority over those held by organisations."

-      In relation to the application from Yaldhurst Model School PTA, under the Summer with your Neighbours Guidelines, it states: "Funding should not be seen as a way for individuals or organisations to hold a gathering that they would at other times of the year."

3.12    To create consistency in staff recommendations across the city, staff recommendations are based on the following formula:

·    $2.50 per head up to a maximum of $200.

·    When the requested amount is less than the $2.50 per head formula, the requested amount is what has been recommended.

·    Where two approximate attendee numbers have been noted, recommendations are based on the higher approximate figure.

3.12    A matrix outlining the applications and staff recommendations is attached (refer             Attachment A), along with the Summer with your Neighbours Guidelines (refer Attachment         B).

3.1       Community Governance Projects

3.1.1    Bryndwr Community Garden's Fruitful Delivery

After gaining the appropriate permissions, the Bryndwr Community Garden was looking for a couple of fruit trees to plant in their garden at Morley Reserve to provide a treat for children, volunteers, and community alike.

They wanted trees around 5ft tall so they could be able to survive the rigors of planting in their communal space better.  The trees the group were looking at were approximately $160 each.  As luck would have it, a week or two later after a few phone calls with the group and staff from the Council's Parks Unit, our Community Development Advisor, Natalie Dally, was able to pick up and deliver a nectarine, pear, and apricot tree to the gardens.  The volunteers are over the moon as the trees are even better quality than the ones they were looking at and they were free!  We are still working on getting a lemon tree for them so if anyone knows of one going, contact Natalie as she knows a good home for it.

3.1.2   Working with Support for Development and their Women’s Cultural Events

 The Support for Development group have conversational English connection classes at the Fendalton Service Centre and other activities at the Fendalton Community Centre.

They are looking at running a couple of women’s cultural events this year, the “Teej Celebration” and “Vailo Depawali”.  Our Community Development Advisor, Natalie Dally,  has been helping them to navigate Council funding schemes and pull together an application which will go to the Metropolitan Discretionary Response Fund.

Women with a cultural heritage from mainly south Asian countries; Nepal, Bhutan, India, Bangladesh, Myanmar, Pakistan and others share food and cultural activities at the events. They provide an opportunity to integrate cultures and harmonise a multicultural New Zealand society. 

For many participants, these festivals have traditionally been the only time in the calendar year where women have been allowed full freedom of expression. Women band together and celebrate by singing, dancing, performing humorous dance, and eating a variety of ethnic foods. The events inspire, encourage, and empower Asian women to explore and promote their unique cultural values and share with other cultures and wider communities of women in Christchurch. 

The events are often catalysts for deeper connections between women from different cultural backgrounds as they introduce and exchange their respective cultures. They often have speakers sharing stories of indigenous women and modern women with successful leadership and academic careers in NZ and their life experiences.

Isolation is a very real problem for many and the connections these events provide can be life changing. The events will be open to all women of Christchurch to attend. The Teej celebration is expected to be held in September and the Valio will be a little later in the year.

3.1.3    The Friends of Crosbie Park

Amidst the melodious calls of bellbirds, the enthusiastic members of the Friends of Crosbie Park community recently came together for their highly anticipated second annual planting event in the first two days of August. Over these two days, they planted an impressive 160 native plants, enhancing an existing border along the Ilam Stream and adding to the park's allure for not only the local community but also the native wildlife.  Council Park Ranger, Annaliese Caukwell-Mills, introduced an innovative touch - a large biodegradable planting mat - to promote sustainable growth.

A significant milestone was reached on Tuesday, 15 August, as the Friends of Crosbie Park were honoured at the Keep Christchurch Beautiful Awards. Partners received certificates of appreciation along with native plants, symbolising their unwavering commitment to preserving Christchurch's natural beauty.

Bound together by a shared vision of a greener world, the Friends of Crosbie Park embody community-driven environmental stewardship. Their story highlights unity, innovation, and unwavering dedication to preserving natural splendour.

3.1.4   Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewood Community Liaison Meeting

The Waimāero Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewood Community Liaison Meeting took place on Wednesday, 9 August, at the New Generation Church. It was attended by a diverse group of community representatives, including CCC Staff, Councillor James Gough, and representatives from various churches, community centres, preschools, and other organisations.

The group heard from Eduardo Mendonça, New Generation Church, who shared his journey from Brazil to New Zealand and discussed the church's merger and community-focused initiatives.

 Council staff ran a dynamic "What Matters Most" session, sparking enthusiastic participation. Many had already embarked on this journey, infusing the room with a positive buzz. Overall, the discussion revolved around the significance of early engagement, the purpose of "What Matters Most," the role of the Long-Term Plan, and the community's involvement in influencing resource allocation and decision-making.

The timeline for the plan's adoption and the different tools for engagement, including the website version and quick poll, were also key points of focus. Advocacy efforts and the responsibility of the Council in matters beyond their immediate jurisdiction were addressed, along with the expectation that community input will shape the future pre-engagement phase.

Local Community Governance staff gave a brief update on the upcoming Mental Health Hui, scheduled for 25 September, and several community representatives shared upcoming events and initiatives.

Karakia Whakamutunga

Unuhia, unuhia

Unuhia ki te uru tapu nui

Kia wātea, kia māmā, te ngākau,

Te tinana te wairua i te ara takatā

Koia rā e Rongo, whakairia ake ki runga

Kia tina! TINA! Hui e! TĀIKI E!

Draw on, draw on,
Draw on the supreme sacredness
To clear, to free the heart, the body and the spirit of mankind
Rongo, suspended high above us (i.e. in ‘heaven’)
Draw together! Affirm!
