	Kaikoura - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Kaikoura is a town on the east coast of the South Island of New Zealand.
		According to the 2001 census, the permanent resident population is 2,104, a 5% decrease since the 1996 census.
		The Kaikoura Peninsula extends into the sea south of the town, and the resulting upwelling currents bring an abundance of marine life from the depths of the nearby Hikurangi Trench.

		Kaikoura District Council Environmental Planner, Ian Challenger, said Kaikoura’s Tourism Strategy and its environmental programmes such as Zero Waste have been developed to demonstrate to tourists that Kaikoura isn’t just trading on the environment but is taking steps to protect it.
		The community’s vision for Kaikoura is that of a sustainable future that will provide employment, social amenities and consumer choice, but not at the cost to the environment in which they live.
		That means that Kaikoura can preserve the claim to be a clean and green community, which will benefit not only the natural environment but also the social and economic environments," she said.

		There are 74 territorial authorities: 16 city councils, 57 district councils and the Chatham Islands Council.
		Five territorial authorities (Nelson City Council, Gisborne, Tasman and Marlborough District Councils and the Chatham Islands Council) also perform the functions of a regional council and thus are known as unitary authorities.
