WELCOME TO your new look<br />
<strong>Bay</strong> <strong>Harbour</strong> News.<br />
A tremendous effort from<br />
the Lyttelton and Governors<br />
<strong>Bay</strong> Volunteer Fire Brigades<br />
at the weekend. Not only did<br />
they stomp up 1103 stairs at<br />
the Firefighter Sky Tower Stair<br />
Challenge, but they did it for<br />
very worthy cause. Check<br />
out page 3 to find out which<br />
brigade came second overall for<br />
fundraising more than $32,763.<br />
Last week’s article on the<br />
Lyttelton Port of Christchurch’s<br />
plan to dredge a deeper channel<br />
in the harbour certainly had<br />
the community talking. Turn<br />
to letters on page 6. Our guest<br />
columnist this week is Redcliffs<br />
School board of trustees<br />
member Mark Robberds. He is<br />
leaving the role after six years.<br />
Thank you for your service<br />
Mark. – Shelley Robinson<br />

CHOCOLATE CHEWED OVER AT COUNCIL<br />
A HEATED discussion was quelled<br />
at a city council meeting last week<br />
when a councillor was told to “eat a<br />
Snickers.”<br />
During last week’s meeting, city<br />
councillor Jamie Gough joked<br />
that fellow councillor Glenn<br />
Livingstone should have a snack<br />
during passionate discussions<br />
over a deputation presented to the<br />
NEWS 11<br />
city council.<br />
The popular American chocolate<br />
bar’s motto is: ‘You’re not you when<br />
Your Local Views......... 6<br />
Achievers...............................18<br />
Community Events... 21<br />
Sport..........................................23<br />
Health & Beauty.........24<br />
Real Estate.......................... 25<br />
you’re hungry.’ Perhaps Cr Gough<br />
felt Cr Livingstone needed a bite of<br />
chocolate to calm down.<br />
