Te Whakatakoto Mahere i Te Taha o Te Ao Maori
Ko Te Kaunihera a-rohe o Heretaunga e awhero ana ki te tu hei kaitiaki i runga ano i te pono, i te tika mo te ahua ki nga wawata me nga tumanako o te ao Maori.
Pera ano i Te Haaro o Te Kahu e noho kaitiaki nei mo Heretaunga, a, e haro ana i runga ake nei, puta noa hoki i te rohe ki te matai, ki te arataki, ki te tiaki i a tatou: he pera ano hoki Te Kaunihera a-rohe o Heretaunga, he ata titiro ki te wahi ki a ia ano me tana atu ki te ao Maori, tae atu hoki ki te tangata whenua, kia harakoa ai, kia totika ai te pakari haere o te whanau kia taea ai te whai wahi atu, te tuhono atu hoki ki te iwi whanui.
Ko te inoi kia pai ta tatou whakatakoto mahere me ta tatou mahi tahi na te mea ina kotahi ka ea katoa nga wawata.
Hastings District Council aspires to a kaitiakitanga conducted in good faith at all times with respect to the aspirations and expectations of Maori.
Just as Te Haaro o Te Kahu, is the kaitiaki for Heretaunga flying above and around the region, to monitor, guide and protect us: so too does the Hastings District Council take seriously its responsibility to Maori, including tangata whenua, so that whanau develop joyously and positively to contribute to and be connected with the community as a whole.
May we go well in our planning and work together, for together we shall achieve our goals.
