The Zone Committee
3.1 The Banks Peninsula Water Management Zone Committee is established under the auspices of the Local Government Act 2002 in accordance with the Canterbury Water Management Strategy 2009 (CWMS).
3.2 The Committee is a joint committee of Christchurch City Council, and Environment Canterbury.
3.3 The purpose of the Committee is to uphold the mana of the freshwater bodies within their zone by facilitating enduring land and water management solutions that give effect to the Canterbury Water Management Strategy vision, principles, and targets in their zone.
3.4 Committee functions include:
3.4.1 Facilitating community engagement and collaboration.
3.4.2 Facilitating the provision of advice through to councils and others contributing to freshwater management.
3.4.3 Enhancing delivery capability and coalition of the willing – working with stakeholders across all sectors to extend the resources available to implement the CWMS.
3.4.4 Progress annual reporting to the CWMS partners on progress towards delivery of the zone-specific priorities and CWMS target areas identified in the Committee’s Action Plan.
3.4.5 The purpose and functions of the Committee are fulfilled by preparing a Zone Committee Action Plan to cover a three-year period that focuses on 3 to 5 priorities.
3.4.6 The Committee does not have the authority to commit any council to any path or expenditure and its recommendations do not compromise the Council’s freedom to deliberate and make decisions.
3.4.7 The Committee does not have the authority to submit on proposed Resource Management or Local Government Plans.
Operating Philosophy
3.5 The Committee will always operate in accordance with the requirements of the Local Government Official Information and Meetings Act 1987 and Standing Orders of Territorial Authorities.
3.6 The Committee will observe the following principles:
3.6.1 Be culturally sensitive observing Ngāi Tahu tikanga.
3.6.2 Apply a Ki Uta Ki Tai (from the mountains to the sea) holistic approach that also enables cultural elements including mahinga kai philosophies held by mana whenua to be encompassed.
3.6.3 Consider and balance the interests of all water interests in the region in debate and decision making.
3.6.4 Work in a collaborative solution-focused approach using best endeavours to reach solutions that take account of interests of all sectors of the community.

3.6.7 Seek consensus in decision-making. If neither unanimous agreement can be reached nor a significant majority view formed, in the first instance seek assistance from an external facilitator to further Committee discussions and deliberations. Where the Committee encounters fundamental disagreements, despite having sought assistance and exhausted all avenues to resolve matters, recommend that respective Councils disband them and appoint a new Committee.
4. Elections

4.2 The current Chair is Gina Waibl and the Deputy Chair is Trudi Bishop.

4.3.1 System A; or,

4.4.6 in any round of voting, if 2 or more candidates tie for the lowest number of votes, the person excluded from the next round is resolved by lot.

5. Meeting Times and Dates
CWMS Zone Committees Review
5.1 The Canterbury Mayoral Forum launched a review of Zone Committees in 2023 to consider how best to include local leadership in freshwater decision making.
5.2 Following this review, a report was presented to the Canterbury Mayoral Forum (CMF) on 29 November 2024. After considering these findings, the CMF acknowledged the significant contribution Zone Committee members have made to freshwater outcomes throughout Canterbury, and collectively agreed that:
5.2.1 In principle, zone committees, as a consistent structure across Waitaha Canterbury, are in some places no longer the preferred option to support effective local freshwater leadership.
5.2.2 Further work is needed to refine what an improved model might look like, with another report planned to go to the Mayoral Forum in May 2025 seeking agreement to a proposed model.
5.2.3 In the first half of 2025, Environment Canterbury will lead this work with Councils and Papatipu Rūnanga, and to assist with how to transition from zone committee to any new model (see ‘Next Steps’ below).
Next Steps
5.3 In the interim period, through to June 2025, key areas where ongoing Zone Committee input will be valuable include:
5.3.1 Supporting work to complete the 2025 CWMS Targets report; and
5.3.2 Development of a handover document - Assisting in identifying local priorities for new leadership groups to consider, based on ZIPs, ZIPAs and plans that have guided Committee efforts to date.
5.3.3 If there is other work or actions that committees would like to do, including interim changes, then we welcome hearing about these.
5.4 The Terms of Reference state that the Committee will formally meet at least four times per annum and will hold workshops and host additional community engagement opportunities as required throughout the year. However, the transition to a new model needs to be considered when setting the calendar up to June 2025.
Potential Zone Committee meeting/workshop dates to June 2025
5.5 The following dates are based on last year’s previous cycle of holding meetings/workshops/briefings on the second Monday of each month, subject to change where required:
5.5.1 29 April (workshop)
5.5.2 20 May (meeting)
5.6 The Committee can have input on the location of meetings to encourage greater engagement on issues in particular areas.

3.1 As part of their Long-Term Plan 2024-2034, Environment Canterbury committed $50,000 per zone for the 2024-25 financial year for the CWMS Zone Committee Action Plan (ZCAP) Budget. The confirmed purpose of the budget is to allow Zone Committees to focus on implementing their action plan and leverage other funding opportunities to achieve the CWMS priorities. The Zone Committee recommends the allocation of the budget and Environment Canterbury then makes the decisions and provides administration.
3.2 The main criteria is that projects recommended have alignment with the Committee’s Action Plan. Other criteria that are considered include: the significance of the problem or opportunity; expected impact of the project; the extent to which the community are likely to be engaged; mahinga kai; value for money; whether the project is feasible, realistic, ready to start; and project management including leadership and financial oversight.

3.4 Environment Canterbury staff have advised they are unable to use the full $6,500.00 approved for the Banks Peninsula pekapeka (longtail bat) survey project 2024-2025 project and now only require $2,000 plus GST.
3.5 Consequently, there is $4,500 left to allocate for this financial year.
Zone Committee Action Plan Budget projects for consideration
3.6 The Zone Committee can now re-consider projects received through the application process which received partial or no funding. A late application has been included where information on the project was received in December 2024.
3.7 A summary table of the projects considered in November-December 2024 has been provided in Attachment 1 and includes the new project for consideration – Okana Fencing Project.
Okana Fencing Project – Little River Wairewa Community Trust and Little River Pony Club
3.8 The Little River Pony Club have a long-term lease of the Christchurch City Council’s Morice Reserve in Cooptown. They contacted the Okuti River Project Lead regarding riparian planting alongside the adjoining Okana River that they want to do.
3.9 A 100m fence needs to be installed along the Okana River to prevent stock access, enabling riparian planting and reducing sedimentation into Te Roto o Wairewa (Lake Forsyth). $6,000 has been quoted for the fence and half the costs have been secured and the remaining $3,000 still to be obtained. Once fencing is complete, the group can begin their riparian planting project.
3.10 The request for funding was originally received as a variation for a previous grant agreement which has been in discussion since December 2024. A copy of the application has been included as Attachment 2: Application for the Okana River Project.
3.11 The projects aligns with the following actions in the ZCAP:
3.11.1 Engaging with the community and partner with other organisations to encourage future proofing/resilience about:
3.11.2 soil conservation, erosion and sediment control (by preventing stock accessing the river);
3.11.3 water quality and quantity (raise awareness about water quality in private drinking supplies and monitoring water quality trends with the Wairewa Mahinga Kai Catchment Group);
3.11.4 and mahinga kai (Supports mahinga kai from Te roto o Wairewa and the Okana River (with an emphasis on tuna and kanakana; and increased riparian management to protect aquatic ecosystems).
3.12 The Little River Pony Club are putting $3,000 towards the fencing costs and ‘in kind’ mahi will be provided from volunteers at the Pony Club to clear exotic vegetation from the line for the fence.
3.13 The funds will be managed by the Little River Wairewa Community Trust and Little River Pony Club if a variation is agreed to.
3.14 The recommendations above are based on the funding criteria, taking into consideration feedback received from the Committee and the funding amounts already received.
