2 [Edition datE] PAGE 18 BAY HARBOUR Wednesday October 19 2016 itLocal Keep Bay Harbour News Sparkling new premises for drycleaning business The long-established Ferrymead business, Ferrymead Drycleaners, has now moved into brand-new premises in Ferry Road, directly behind Casual & Country. Following the February 2011 earthquakes that completely destroyed the former retail shop and drycleaning plant, Ferrymead Drycleaners operated out of a portacom for four and a half years. While this was conveniently located and served the purpose well, the staff are now thrilled to have permanent premises in the smart new Country & Casual complex at 1027 Ferry Rd and are enjoying welcoming customers there. Long-standing staff member Sandra says the relationship the staff at Ferrymead Drycleaners have built Long-standing staff member Sandra up with their regular customers over the years and the service offered are the key aspects of the business. “We pride ourselves on looking after our loyal customers and we enjoy having a chat to them. It’s like a family-orientated business,” Sandra says. “Our new shop is in the perfect spot. We have been through some hard times and we’ve now come out at the right end.” She notes that the location on Kite Lane offering easy drive-through access from both Ferry Road and Humphreys Drive is ideal, with the added bonus of parking right outside the door. Ferrymead Drycleaners offers the full range of drycleaning services, and specialises in cleaning drapes and furnishings, as well as wedding dresses, ball gowns, and leather and suede items, all with a quick turnaround. They also take in repairs and alterations to furnishings and clothing. The fast-growing area of Ferrymead is buzzing with business activity and Ferrymead Drycleaners is just one of a wide range of retail and service businesses either opening or relocating there, making it a one-stop location for residents from Woolston to Sumner.

Wednesday October 19 2016 BAY HARBOUR PAGE 19 Your Local Views Pathway soon to open Christchurch Coastal Pathway Group funding manager and newly-elected Linwood-Central- Heathcote Community Board member Tim Lindley talks about the latest in the coastal pathway project The newest section of the Christchurch Coastal Pathway, from the causeway round Beachville Rd to Redcliffs Village is nearly ready for use. The Coastal Pathway Group, Redcliffs residents and Downer are planning an event on November 6 from 10am to 1pm to celebrate its opening. With more space alongside the pathway, the new section offers more places to stop and enjoy the environment and to socialise. There is a lot more work still to do. At the Redcliffs Park end, the ground around the pathway is being shaped now so that next autumn it can be made ready for planting. There are also plans to install seats and tables to encourage people to stop and enjoy watching the birdlife so prolific in this area. Further round, the pathway runs alongside the Beachville sea wall. A capping placed on the seawall doubles as seating. On the landward side, a large grassed area has been planted and will be great for picnics and games. A small cycle skills area for very junior riders is planned for the Redcliffs Village end of this space. The landscaping is new and still fragile, so the pathway group asks if contractors and trades people working in the area could please avoid parking on the newly grassed areas, potentially causing damage. As it turns out, people aren’t the only pathway users. The local seagulls have found the surface by the seawall ideal for breaking shells, while near Mt Pleasant the cormorants love to roost in the lone macrocarpa tree and decorate the asphalt underneath. The next stage of the pathway will be from Deans Head (by Rapanui), to Sumner Village. The loss of the footpath by the cliff means there is an urgent need to get a permanent pathway in place on the seaward side. A reader responds to articles on coastal hazard information put on properties LIMs. Val McClimont – Thousands of residents living in our coastline communities have every right to feel betrayed by our council’s decision to persevere with the LIM notations on their properties after the peer report of the Tonkin and Taylor report of July 2015 was found to be flawed. Notations on LIMs should be based on verifiable hazards such as motorway plans or road widening. The 2013 Tonkin and Taylor report, commissioned by the city council on sea level rises, found eight areas of unknowns or uncertainties (Section 2.4). In the interval between November 2013 and July 2015 what had changed? Nothing, except that Section 2.4 was missing from the 2015 report. The high levels of uncertainties and unknowns are still present. That being the case we have a situation where council has made decisions based on high levels of uncertainties and unknowns and therefore its decisions are flawed. Increases in sea level rises are predicted against a background of increases in global temperatures. But the IPCC’s (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) predictions on global temperature increases have never been realised. They have consistently over-stated reality. Dr John Christy, a climatologist of the Alabama University, produces the above graph to demonstrate the gap between reality and IPCC predictions. Our council is making decisions on the failed predictions of the IPCC and therefore there can be no legal requirement to add that information to the notations of property LIMs. A reader responds to an article from last week on putting basic toilet and kitchen facilities on land near Windsport Park after freedom camping was banned on site. Ali McLauchlan – After reading your article about “Freedom campers facility possibility at Windsport Park” I have decided to send this email. A lot of us who live up on the hill wrote into the council expressing our concern on several matters. I read your story with interest about the Ferrymead businessmen who wants to turn council land into a facility area for freedom campers. I wonder if they have spoken to another local businessman who owns the camping ground about 2km away from the area who lost about $50,000 of income when the council let the freedom campers stay. Also, if they are thinking about putting in some basic facilities then council requirements will be the same as what people have to do if they own a camping ground to which I wonder who is going to pay for all these ideas?
