Scenic reserves of New Zealand
Scenic reserves are a type of New Zealand protected area. They are the most common, and probably most widespread, form of protected area in the country. Reserves vary size with most being less than 100 hectares, although some are more than 1,000 hectares. Some are "islands of unspoilt nature in a sea of farmland".
Scenic reserves were first created when communities decided to keep some original vegetation in an area where most original vegetation had been removed. Most are patches of bush, often close to roads. Statutory control of scenic reserves was covered by the Scenery Preservation Act 1903 until the passing of the Reserves Act 1977.
To classify an area as a scenic reserve a local authority is required to follow the procedure provided in that Reserves Act. The local authority needs to classify the area as a scenic reserve under section 16 of the Reserves Act 1977, and then declare the area a scenic reserve, giving the public an opportunity to raise objections. Once the allotted time for raising objections has past, the local authority is required to all objections submitted and decide whether to pass a resolution declaring the area a scenic reserve. If the resolution is passed, the resolution and all objects are forwarded to the Minister of Conservation. The resolution also needs to be gazetted by publishing the resolution in the New Zealand Gazette.
