I agree to the erection of a building/s on the Rangi Pepuere block by financially contributing land shareholders: YES / NO - Yes, however this is dependent on the type of building and what it is etc. What options are available that have been discussed? Of these options which are the most cost effective? Have these options considered future maintenance and upgrading costs as a continuing expense and are these options viable for those who may only visit the mahia once every four/five years?
I would like to contribute financially to a building being put on the Rangi Pepuere block: YES / NO Yes, however this is dependent on what options are on offer. Whilst I appreciate you have all the information, I would like to have more information on what options are available. In addition, what type of limitations would this incur on future buildings? Is there a possible option for someone to contribute financially at a later stage? Or for those who do not contribute financially can they use the building however pay a higher rate per use, which would contribute to the overall maintenance, costs in the future? Is it possible to look at these options?
I agree that the persons who contribute financially can make decisions about what type of building can be erected on the site: YES / NO No. I think that we need to look at the future implications that the building may incur on other landowners. Whilst I believe that those who financially contribute will look in the best interest of the landholders, any decisions made about the building may impact on the overall land thus limiting the non-financial contributors. Can another building be erected on the site at a later stage, would council building costs be different etc? We need to ensure that a building erected will not have any adverse affects or limitations on any future generations who may wish to build as well.
I agree that any buildings erected on this site will be managed separately from the land. YES / NO Yes however the landholders should be kept informed of any decisions regarding the building.
Any other comments: Whilst this is a good base questionnaire for creating discussion about this land and what options are available, I think that more information would be required if there are any decisions that need to be made. I don't want to feel as though I signing up for something that I don't really agree with it. I want to ensure that some of these options are viable for descendants who live overseas, considering that we live in Australia. Key issues that we need to consider here in Australia include whether it is viable for us to provide capital upfront and continuing maintenance costs when we are only going to use the facilities/land/building once every four/five years for one/two weeks at best?

Firstly I agree with all of Kara’s comments and I’m adding extra comments that I have been considering
I agree to the erection of a building/s on the Rangi Pepuere block by financially contributing land shareholders: YES / NO Yes, But I am also currently not a shareholder, just a descendant of one. As Kara said it is also dependant on what is decided to being built.
I would like to contribute financially to a building being put on the Rangi Pepuere block: YES / NO Yes, But as I am not a shareholder I will need to protect my interests a bit closer. Will financial contributing give me an even amount of opinion on the development of the block? The worst case scenario for me is to contribute towards the capital costs of setting something up then the land being given to someone else, and not myself or my children or my grand children. Some of these issues need to be address for me to move forward but under the right circumstance I am willing to contribute.
I agree that the persons who contribute financially can make decisions about what type of building can be erected on the site: YES / NO No, I agree with Kara’s comments. I also would like to add that there should be limitations to what the non financial members can make decisions about as some decisions are relevant to their interests, but the colour of the inside walls etc in not relevant for their opinion etc.
I agree that any buildings erected on this site will be managed separately from the land. YES / NO Yes, agree with Kara’s comments. Any other comments: Some important questions that I think need to be addressed.
Sorry guys, I have seen how money can split families and if we cover all bases then we can move forward in building whilst securing strong family relationships the land currently in equal shares? And if mum decides to gifts Andrew and myself some of her share do when then have an ‘equal’ share or is it then portioned?
When deciding on the building does there have to be unanimous agreement from all shareholders that we move forward with a building, type of building, etc, etc? Or is a majority vote? Are the shareholders happy to have descendants of shareholders involved with the decisions of building? Or are we here to give opinions and money and the end vote being available shareholders only?I also think we need to set up a trust or do a constitution and set some guidelines to make some rulings on how decisions are made, then it can be decided on how the buildings will be used and costs to non financial members and descendants. I also think we need to set this up asap before we can move forward. I also think there should be a yearly contribution fee where this can help establish a bank account towards any possible costs but also to help with the administration costs that is involved with distributing information etc. therefore not leaving a financial liability to anyone who is involved with getting information and sending it out, eg. Scanning, copying, postage etc. I think if we can decide accurately now how things are done then we aren’t leaving a mess for future generations.

I think its a great idea:Were not putting in any cash unless our situation changes, I support that financial members have the say in the building and would love to see the oldies using it before they move on. We would get down there every couple of years and have no problem in paying to stay there and i cant remember the rest but you guys have my support to get a building on there asap. I hope this helps and we send aussie love to your whanau. cheers

Yes I would love a building on the Rangi Pepuere Whenua and will make some contribution to it dependent on how much is required. I think that all shareholders and next generation who are interested should have an input of ideas for the building. Am sending some pamphlets back for the Aussies to look at, to see if they have any preferences or ideas.There will be more dialogue regarding this. Final decision will be by vote of shareholders if no solution can be reached amicably, is what I think. I do not agree the building and land be managed separately,but would suggest a committee of shareholders and contributors with a deed or charter set up.
