Retiring chief executive of Watercare Mark Ford

On Friday, Watercare announced the retirement of Chief Executive Mark Ford.

Mark was chief executive of Watercare from 1994 until June 2009 when he resigned toaccept the Government’s invitation to become the Executive Chairman of the AucklandTransition Agency.

His role with the ATA wrapped up in November 2010, with the amalgamation of Auckland.

He then rejoined Watercare and continued to serve as chief executive until his retirement.

I would like to acknowledge Mark’s many years of service to Auckland, including insecuring safe and reliable water supplies, overseeing the implementation of the new Auckland Council, and serving as Chair of Auckland Transport.

In the words of Watercare chairman David Clarke, Mark has an exceptional knowledge ofthe water industry and under his stewardship the company has become recognisedglobally as an example of best practice in the provision of water supply and wastewater

services.

“Since Mark was first appointed chief executive in 1994, Auckland’s water andwastewater infrastructure has become significantly more robust and resilient; able to copewith the demands of a growing population and increasingly strict environmentalstandards.”

“Many of the projects that Watercare undertakes are large and complex, and involvesignificant investment. The company and Mark can take much pride in havingsuccessfully delivered such projects on time and within budget, a record due in no smallpart to the importance he attached to fostering strong relationships between Watercareand iwi.

“Under Mark’s leadership, Watercare has matured and now holds assets worth $8.4billion and supplies services to more than 1.4 million Aucklanders.”

We wish Mark and his family well.

Pioneering winemaker Alex Corban

I would like to acknowledge the contribution to Auckland and the nation of a pioneeringwest Auckland winemaker, Alex Corban, who died earlier this month.

Alex was a member of the well-known Corban family that established one of NewZealand’s first wineries, in West Auckland.

His grandfather, Assid Abraham Corban, a Lebanese immigrant from a winemakingbackground, started a winery in Henderson in 1902.

Alex became one of the country's first tertiary-educated winemakers, and went on to leadthe Corbans winery in the 1960s and 70s.

Active at a time when export wine was in its infancy, and local tastes favoured fortifiedwines, Alex encouraged innovation in wine styles and industry equipment, such asstainless steel tanks.

He worked to give the then-fragmented industry a unified voice and credibility and wasthe first chairman of the New Zealand Wine Institute (now New Zealand Winegrowers).

New Zealand winemakers credit Alex with putting Kiwi wine on the international stage andhelping lay the foundations for what is now a national $1.2 billion wine industry.

He also insisted that New Zealand wines could be marketed on their own merits, withoutEuropean names or imagery.

Awarded an OBE in 1978, the New Zealand Medal in 1990, and inducted into the NewZealand Winemakers’ Hall of Fame in 2005 (his grandfather and brother Joe are also inthe Hall of Fame). He was also recognised internationally for his work.

Alex and his wife Gwen (who died in 2008) had four children and winemaking continuesto run in the family. Alex and Gwen retired to the Hawkes Bay, but his contribution toWest Auckland is well-remembered and a memorial service was held in Henderson this

month.
