- TE AWAMUTU REINFORCEMENT PROJECT (110KV TRANSMISSION LINE BETWEEN THE HANGATIKI AND TE AWAMUTU SUBSTATIONS)

for all taonga! read this blog for other terrible goings on round our community http://bowalleyroad.blogspot.co.nz/2010/03/brief-item-of-news.html

How stupid to want to ruin a special land mark of not only Otorognaha but to the whole king country.

This tree means a lot more than some money making power line

Leave our town alone PLEASE!!!

Signed

I strongly oppose and tautoko my Ngati Maniapoto iwi...

It's ridiculous that there even needs to be a petition for this

I support this kaupapa

Ko Kakepuku tokū maunga Ko waipa te awa Ko Ngati Maniapoto te iwi No Otorohanga ahau....When man disappears the land will still remain. I am the land and the land is me.

This is a place of significance to my ancestors and those of us who live on to tell the stories of that time.

I am from Rereahu and Ngati Manaipoto both my grandparents and father are buried within the area. Please do not let this happen either go underground or go away

I support what everyone has written ...go underground or go away.

Don't agree at all

Go under the ground or go away

i am of Ngati Maniapoto iwi descendant of Waahanui. I am in agreeance to this pitition and say if there is an alternative route that suits our community so be it.

Please leave the tree alone 300 years is a significant amount of time to grow what gives you the right to cut it down in 5 mins to put up cancer causing power lines!!

Tautoko

This is a significant area known as Waahi Tapu and our whanau whakapapa to that area. Please save our Rakau and area.

PLEASE KEEP OTOROHANGA PRETTY. NO UGLY POWER LINES PLEASE.OTOROHANGA DISTRICT COUNCIL PROTECT OUR HUIPUTEA RESERVE AND TREE. OUR FAMILY HAVE LIVED ACROSS THE RIVER FOR OVER 100 YEARS

im with everyone over this
