Local Matters - Landfill opponents come together

Landfill opponents come together
Environmental lawyer Andrew Braggins took questions from the crowd.
Unity, hope and determination were on display in Wellsford today, when around 200 people packed into the Community Centre for an anti-landfill hui organised by Fight the Tip: Tiaki Te Whenua.
An enthusiastic and vocal crowd loudly applauded vows from Fight the Tip members, MPs, councillors, iwi leaders and an environmental lawyer to fight Waste Management and Auckland Council and stop the development of a new regional dump in the Dome Valley.
"Welcome to the second battle in front of us," Fight the Tip executive Mikaera Miru said. "The whole community, Maori and Pakeha, are together fighting against bureaucrats who are simply not listening to who we are.

Local Matters - Landfill timeline and community opposition

Landfill timeline and community opposition
A community united in opposition
Mahurangi Matters sought the views of community leaders in the wake of the commissioners’ decision to grant a resource consent to allow a landfill in the Dome Valley …
Dr Jason Smith
Mayor of Kaipara District Council (KDC)
I am extremely disappointed. The KDC’s elected members voted unanimously to put in a submission rejecting the idea of a landfill, which we did. My feeling is that the broad range of concerns that we had, including about the impacts on traffic and on the future of the waterways, have not been addressed. Waste Management themselves cannot guarantee in perpetuity that the lining of any proposed landfill will last forever. There comes a future point when it is going to fail. In 20, 50 or 500 years from now, people will say what on earth were they thinking? I still believe New Zealand can find better solutions to disposing of waste rather than having a hole in the ground in the bush.

Dumping on the Māori world view

But such "intangible cultural" effects could not overwhelm the Resource Management Act, the National Policy Statement on freshwater, the Auckland Unitary Plan, Auckland Council's officials and four men sitting in judgment.
An independent planning panel for Auckland Council has approved a 60-hectare landfill for a farm and bush site in the Dome Valley just south of Wellsford to take Auckland city's waste for the next 35 years.
Supplied
Law over lore. The tangible over the intangible.
A council expert who recommended the dump be approved later accepted at the hearing that there would be intangible adverse cultural effects, and "only mana whenua can speak to mana whenua values".
