Tongariro Domain Reserve Management Plan December 2005 5.1.13. ISSUE N CAMPING AND OTHER ACCOMMODATION Objective 1: Policy A Camping and other forms of accommodation will be generally prohibited on the Domain. Camping and other accommodation, including recreational vehicles, will be prohibited on the Domain, including the area of the Taupo Motor Camp following its closure, except for those associated with travelling fairs. Explanation: Tongariro Domain’s importance as Taupo Town Centre’s showcase reserve and cultural heart for recreation, riverside access, events and environmental amenity has grown since the original opening of the Taupo Motor Camp. It is now more appropriate for camping to take place elsewhere and so will be prohibited on the Domain from the end of April 2006. In addition, other low cost accommodation is increasingly being provided on non-reserve land. Policy B Unauthorised camping including recreational vehicles will not be permitted on the Domain and anyone found doing so will be removed by Council staff or the appropriate authorities and may be subject to prosecution or other recourse under the Reserves Act 1977.

Taupo District Council 5.1.14. ISSUE O ROADS AND CARPARKING Objective 1: Policy A Policy B To provide and maintain adequate roading and carparking to service the general activities of the Domain taking into consideration costs and environmental effects, including reduction of green open space. Existing and future roads and parking areas will be maintained at a level to allow suitable public access to the Domain and to cater for the levels of demand generated by the Domain’s everyday use whilst considering cost and environmental impact. Where appropriate alternatives to sealing will be considered such as gobi blocks. Parking on the Domain is only to be within designated areas and used by those visiting, managing or maintaining activities or facilities on the Domain. In particular, car parking provided to meet the needs of: 1. the Great Lake Centre 2. Taupo Library; and 3. Taupo i-Site Visitors Centre will be restricted to visitors to these activities through the implementation of a parking control scheme. Policy C Policy D Explanation: The form and amount of parking provided for the Domain’s activities and facilities will be kept under review and coordinated with the outcome of the Town Centre Parking Strategy. The possibility of developing additional parking in general accordance with the concept plans or under Tongariro North Domain’s green open space adjacent to Tongariro Street in the future will be considered, particularly in conjunction with the expansion of reserve facilities such as the Taupo Library, Great Lake Centre and Taupo I-Site Information Centre and Riverside Park. Vehicle parking on grassed areas will only be permitted where it is necessary for those vehicles associated with the management of any approved activities, for maintenance purposes or for particularly large events with prior approval of the Recreation Manager. Parking provision needs to be made for the everyday use of the Domain’s facilities and kept available for these users. For major events and existing activities and facilities the Domain has been shown to be insufficient at times with the excess being accommodated on other land and surrounding roads. This is partly due to the fact that existing parking is being used for long stay visits to the central business district. Consequently, an allowance has been made for additional parking, parking Page 79
