Te Tairāwhiti Historic Heritage Assessment Criteria and Historic Heritage Review

Te Kaunihera o te Tairāwhiti, Gisborne District Council, (GDC) is seeking a review of the historic heritage provisions and schedules in the current Tairāwhiti Resource Management Plan (TRMP). This includes a review of the assessment criteria to identify historic heritage, a review of the current schedules and identifying new heritage sites and areas using this criteria.

GDC requires a heritage expert to undertake a review of the current TRMP heritage sites and areas. The review will ensure heritage sites and areas are consistent with set criteria, that the heritage values of sites are recorded and any new sites/areas are identified.

The required expert needs to understand how historic heritage, archaeological sites and waahi tapu sites/areas are identified and has used proven methodologies in past projects. An understanding of heritage provisions in resource management plans is also required.
