Community’s online bid to<br />

address crime in Lyttelton<br />

• By Noah Graham<br />

LYTTELTON resident Candice<br />

Milner has “had enough.”<br />

The 18-year-old, alongside<br />

many others in the community,<br />

is fed up with the number of car<br />

thefts and burglaries that have<br />

taken place in the area.<br />

She has teamed up with<br />

another resident, Paul Dietche,<br />

who are collecting data for an<br />

online survey on Lyttelton crime<br />

and the possible remedies.<br />

In the past month there have<br />

been seven car thefts residents<br />

have reported on the ‘Lyttelton<br />

– ain’t no place I’d rather be!’<br />

Facebook page and tension is<br />

rising, Mr Dietche said.<br />

Last year he went public in <strong>Bay</strong><br />

<strong>Harbour</strong> News, calling for better<br />

policing and CCTV cameras to<br />

be placed in Lyttelton to prevent<br />

crime.<br />

The CCTV cameras have yet to<br />

eventuate and Mr Dietche is still<br />

frustrated with police responses.<br />

So far, the pair have collected<br />

100 responses to their survey<br />

which shows the community is<br />

frustrating, Ms Milner said.<br />

The survey currently shows<br />

more than 90 per cent believe<br />

there has been an increase in<br />

crime.<br />

Sixty-six per cent, believed<br />

police response to crime is<br />

inadequate.<br />

Ms Milner said the statistics<br />

done about the issue and there<br />

are two options – permanent<br />

police or CCTV cameras.<br />

She said nobody wants<br />

cameras in their area but if the<br />

crime continues, something has<br />

to be done.<br />

the hope something will be done<br />

about it.<br />

He said there was no point in<br />

taking the information to the<br />

police because he had lost faith<br />

in them.<br />

“We don’t have confidence<br />

going to the police.”<br />

When <strong>Bay</strong> <strong>Harbour</strong> News<br />

contacted Lyttelton police<br />

Sergeant Dave Knowles he<br />

referred all inquiries to the<br />

police media communications<br />

centre.<br />

Canterbury and West Coast<br />

area prevention manager<br />

Inspector Paul Reeves said<br />

there has been no significant<br />

increase in the Lyttelton area<br />

recently.<br />

“While the station operates<br />

from 8am to 5pm, police service<br />

the Lyttelton area 24/7, with<br />

community patrols and officers<br />

from other parts of the metro<br />

area responding to any incidents<br />

or crime as needed,” Inspector<br />

Reeves said in an email.<br />

FROM<br />

THE<br />

EDITOR’S<br />

DESK<br />

Good local policing involves good<br />

communication to their respective<br />

community – and often the best<br />

medium is the local newspaper.<br />

But in the case of the Lyttelton<br />

police that isn’t so.<br />

Today, we again reveal frustration<br />

over policing in Lyttelton.<br />

It’s not the first time we’ve covered<br />

this issue. Last year residents<br />

went public with concerns in <strong>Bay</strong><br />

<strong>Harbour</strong> News over thefts, breakins<br />

and petty crime. But could we<br />

get the local police to respond? No.<br />

Now residents are collecting<br />

crime data themselves online and<br />

asking for remedies from the people<br />

who respond.<br />

We again asked Lyttelton police<br />

for a response.<br />

But local police can’t respond<br />

directly apparently. We had to go<br />

through a media centre, who got<br />

a Canterbury-based inspector to<br />

comment.<br />

It’s about time the police got local<br />

again. – Barry Clarke<br />

Residents defend gum tree<br />

• By Noah Graham<br />

A 90-YEAR-OLD gum tree on<br />

private property is being<br />

cut down and residents are<br />

upset.<br />

The manna gum tree’s roots<br />

have dug into the hillside on<br />

Seamount Tce, Mt Pleasant,<br />

since the 1920s and when<br />

resident Eddie du Plessis heard<br />

the chainsaw on Monday<br />

morning cutting through its<br />

limbs, he rushed to defend the<br />

tree.<br />

Mr du Plessis, along with<br />

his wife Beverly, have lived on<br />

Seamount Tce for more than 17<br />

years and are disappointed the<br />

tree will be cut down.<br />

The 20m tall tree with a<br />

4.5m girth was taken off the<br />

notable trees list by the city<br />

council.<br />

This means property owners<br />

are allowed to keep or cut the<br />

trees on their property in spite<br />

of its previous status.<br />

Mr du Plessis said he had<br />

contacted the owner who said<br />

they would think about keeping<br />

it but doubted he would.<br />

<strong>Bay</strong> <strong>Harbour</strong> News was<br />

unable to contact the owner of<br />

the property.<br />

Mr du Plessis said it was<br />

a glorious tree and the<br />

community would not be the<br />

same without it.<br />

Some people love it and some<br />

hate it, but it has been in the<br />

area longer than most of the<br />

residents, he said.<br />

“It’s like losing the<br />

foreground out of a picture.<br />

Without a foreground,<br />

there is no picture,” Mr du<br />

Plessis said<br />

“It is anchored firmly in the<br />

ground, is in excellent health,<br />

touches the sea and the sky and<br />

belongs here.”<br />

Online bid to<br />

address crime<br />

•From page 1<br />

Mr Dietche said he was worried<br />

people were getting “fed up” with<br />

the car thefts and were wanting to<br />

take things into their own hands.<br />

A member of the group, Kevin<br />

Hurl, posted:<br />

“Can I get a serious expression<br />

of interest from others who<br />

would be keen to get up in the<br />

middle of the night and take a<br />

drive around the port and possibly<br />

take action if needed.<br />

“I’m sorry if this sounds<br />

extreme but this has got out of<br />

hand and needs to be seriously<br />

addressed.<br />

“People have the right to sleep<br />

contented at night and expect<br />

their stuff to be there in the<br />

morning, Lyttelton should not be<br />

seen as an easy target.”<br />

Cutting edge research sheep<br />

LOOK CLOSELY, there is<br />

something unusual about Sharon<br />

the sheep – and it could help us<br />

understand what makes human<br />

hair curly or straight.<br />

Far from being just one of the<br />

flock, the Dunsandel Merino<br />

Corriedale cross is one of about<br />

five or six ‘mutant’ Felting Lustre<br />

sheep around the country which<br />

have been identified for study by<br />

AgResearch.<br />

Research into mutant sheep<br />

has AgResearch scientists hoping<br />

for a greater understanding<br />

of curly and straight hair in<br />

humans, and the potential for innovative<br />

new wool products.<br />

While it is not known how<br />

many Felting Lustre sheep there<br />

are, they are rare and share<br />

the naturally occurring trait<br />

of straight wool, instead of the<br />

usual crimped wool.<br />

“With these mutant sheep,<br />

we can for example look at twin<br />

lambs where one has straight<br />

wool and another crimped wool<br />

– or one animal that transforms<br />

from straight to crimped wool<br />

over time - and study the key differences,”<br />

scientist Jeff Plowman<br />

said.<br />

“This can then be applied to<br />

our understanding of the differences<br />

in human hair. It’s an<br />

opportunity we would never<br />

The work began in 2011, when<br />

an Otago lamb with an unusual<br />

coat was brought to the attention<br />

of AgResearch staff involved in<br />

wool research.<br />

Its appearance was so unusual<br />

that the lamb was initially<br />

thought to be a cross between<br />

a sheep and a goat. Part of this<br />

was because the lamb’s straight<br />

lustrous coat was reminiscent of<br />

an Angora goat.<br />

Genetic testing showed it was<br />

100 per cent sheep and its coat<br />

SPOT THE DIFFERENCE: Sharon’s straight wool, on the right,<br />

alongside a sheep with standard crimped wool.<br />

was the result of natural mutation.<br />

“As a result, we started trying<br />

to locate more of these rare<br />

sheep, so we could study what<br />

makes them different and how<br />

proteins in the wool affect the<br />

fibres,” Dr Plowman said.<br />

“Thanks to the assistance of<br />

and properties that can be tied<br />

into specific protein changes.”<br />

Bid to ease dredging concerns<br />

• By Noah Graham<br />

PARTIES INVOLVED in the<br />

controversial proposal to dredge<br />

Lyttelton <strong>Harbour</strong> will head to a<br />

pre-hearing meeting.<br />

Environment Canterbury has<br />

appointed facilitator Ken Gimblett<br />

to try and resolve some of<br />

the issues before a resource<br />

consent hearing begins.<br />

Lyttelton Port Company has<br />

applied for resource consents<br />

to lengthen the Lyttelton<br />

<strong>Harbour</strong>’s channel by 6.5km,<br />

widen it by 20m and increase its<br />

depth by 5-6m.<br />

A deeper dredged channel<br />

would enable larger vessels to<br />

access Lyttelton<br />

Port.<br />

However,<br />

residents do not<br />

want the harbour<br />

dredged.<br />

There has<br />

Darrell<br />

Latham<br />

been opposition<br />

to the proposal<br />

with Sumner<br />

and Taylors<br />

Mistake residents saying they<br />

were worried the 18 million<br />

cu m of spoil removed during<br />

the process would cause a “silt<br />

beach” if it was dumped 6km<br />

offshore of Godley Head.<br />

ECan received 44<br />

submissions, with 23 submitters<br />

CONTENTIOUS: Lyttelton Port Company is applying to dredge the harbour so larger vessels<br />

can access the port, but with community members objecting, a facilitator has been appointed<br />

to resolve any of the issues before the resource consent hearing.<br />

wishing to be heard by the<br />

committee, with the majority of<br />

the submissions opposing the<br />

proposal.<br />

Linwood-Central-Heathcote<br />

Community Board member<br />

Darrell Latham said he was not<br />

against the idea of dredging the<br />

harbour but it would have to be<br />

done carefully.<br />

“I am not opposed to the<br />

continued Lyttelton Port<br />

development operations.<br />

However, I am concerned<br />

around the proposed dumping<br />

ground and the environmental<br />

impacts of dumping vast<br />

amounts of dredged sediments<br />

near the entrance to Lyttelton<br />

<strong>Harbour</strong>.”<br />

ECan has appointed Sir<br />

Graham Panckhurst as the<br />

hearing commissioner along<br />

with Peter Atkinson and<br />

Raewyn Solomon on the panel.<br />

The hearing and pre-hearing<br />

date is still to be confirmed.<br />

Shellfish<br />

safe to eat<br />

It is once again safe to collect<br />

shellfish from Akaroa <strong>Harbour</strong><br />

after a health warning was lifted on<br />

Friday.<br />

The Canterbury District Health<br />

Board issued a warning in October<br />

advising people not to eat shellfish<br />

between Motunau Beach in North<br />

Canterbury and Akaroa <strong>Harbour</strong>.<br />

In a statement released on Friday,<br />

the CDHB announced the health<br />

warning had been removed.<br />

Canterbury medical officer of<br />

health Dr Alistair Humphrey said<br />

tests on shellfish samples taken<br />

from the region showed levels of<br />

diarrhetic shellfish poisoning toxins<br />

were within the safe limit.<br />

“This is great news for those of us<br />

who love collecting and eating our<br />

own kaimoana. It has been a long<br />

wait since the warning was originally<br />

issued and lovers of seafood<br />

in Canterbury should be commended<br />

for heeding the warnings<br />

for so long,” he said.<br />

Mussels, oysters, tuatua, pipi,<br />

toheroa, cockles, scallops, catseyes,<br />

kina and all other bivalve shellfish<br />

are now safe to eat.<br />

Diarrhetic shellfish poisoning<br />

symptoms typically appear within<br />

half an hour of ingestion and last<br />

about 24 hours. Symptoms can include<br />

diarrhoea, vomiting, nausea<br />

and abdominal cramps<br />

High cost to clean up Lake Ellesmere<br />

• By Tom Doudney<br />

THE SECOND phase of a<br />

programme to clean up Te<br />

Waihora/Lake Ellesmere<br />

is expected to involve a<br />

substantially larger financial<br />

investment.<br />

Environment Canterbury<br />

briefed city councillors on<br />

the Whakaora Te Waihora<br />

programme at a<br />

public meeting on<br />

Thursday.<br />

A document<br />

initially included in<br />

the agenda for that<br />

David<br />

Bedford<br />

briefing indicated<br />

that the second<br />

phase, to be carried<br />

out over the next 10 years, would<br />

cost a total of $95 million.<br />

This would complement a<br />

“community contribution” to<br />

cleaning up the wider Selwyn<br />

Waihora catchment of $774.6<br />

million over the same period.<br />

After the Selwyn Times<br />

inquired about the figures, the<br />

document was pulled from the<br />

agenda and no mention was<br />

made of the costs at the briefing.<br />

The first phase of Whakaora Te<br />

Waihora, from 2012 to 2016, involved<br />

an $11 million work programme<br />

over three years, jointly<br />

funded by central Government,<br />

ECan, Fonterra and Ngai Tahu.<br />

ECan and Ngai Tahu have<br />

been exploring options to fund<br />

the second phase, including<br />

co-funding arrangements with<br />

central Government, private<br />

investment, and alternative<br />

regional council funding models.<br />

ECan chairman David Bedford<br />

confirmed that about $95 million<br />

in resources would be required to<br />

progress lake restoration actions<br />

over the next 10 years.<br />

“The Te Waihora Co-<br />

Governance Group is currently<br />

progressing the draft investment<br />

approach. No further detail can<br />

be given on investment in Te<br />

Waihora restoration until that is<br />

finalised,” he said.<br />

Mr Bedford said the Te<br />

Waihora Co-Governance<br />

Group, comprised of ECan, Ngai<br />

Tahu, the district council and<br />

city council, also recognised<br />

the commitment made by the<br />

community and several agencies<br />

in managing water in the Selwyn<br />

Waihora catchment.<br />

“This contribution has been<br />

estimated at $774.6 million<br />

over a 10-year period – an<br />

estimate made considering<br />

a number of variables and<br />

current community and agency<br />

involvement, including ongoing<br />

work on farms, the Central<br />

Plains Water scheme, restoration<br />

work undertaken by the<br />

community, volunteer hours and<br />

in-kind contributions.”<br />

ECan declined to comment<br />

on how much of that figure<br />

represented actual financial<br />

investment as opposed to the<br />

value of work done voluntarily.<br />

Work to be completed in<br />

Whakaora Te Waihora’s<br />

second phase includes reducing<br />

phosphorous and sediment in the<br />

lake, re-establishing wetlands,<br />

and enhancing riparian<br />

plantings in the catchment,<br />

among other measures.<br />

It is expected to take about<br />

another 35 years to restore<br />

the health of the ecologically<br />

significant lake. During an<br />

unrelated debate at Wednesday’s<br />

Selwyn District Council<br />

meeting, councillor Pat McEvedy<br />

BIG EFFORT:<br />

The Whakaora<br />

Te Waihora<br />

programme<br />

aims to restore<br />

the lake over<br />

35 years.<br />

said discussions were underway<br />

on whether the Central Plains<br />

Water scheme could be used to<br />

augment flows in the stressed<br />

Selwyn River.<br />

The river, which flows into the<br />

lake, has just recorded its sixth<br />

consecutive month of record low<br />

flows.<br />

After the meeting, Cr McEvedy<br />

told the Selwyn Times he couldn’t<br />

go into further details at this<br />

stage<br />

Without question, properties of this size and location rarely come to market and we consider this exclusive address with its<br />

commanding views of Redcliffs village, Pegasus <strong>Bay</strong> and the Pacific Kaikouras to be the crème de la crème of coastal hill locations.<br />

lots or simply purchase and landbank for future generations. This residential zoned property offers a total of 2.7ha in 2 titles and is<br />

SCHOOLS<br />

Pupils gain confidence<br />

through leadership<br />

• By Noah Graham<br />

DIAMOND HARBOUR year<br />

8 pupils have had a responsible<br />

start to their year.<br />

They have attended a variety<br />

of meetings alongside their new<br />

principal, Jill Pears, to learn<br />

about leadership and what is<br />

involved.<br />

Not only have they attended<br />

meetings, the students have<br />

undertaken specific roles of<br />

leadership such sports captains,<br />

music leaders, technology advisers,<br />

event organisers and enviro<br />

leaders.<br />

Ms Pears said giving the<br />

pupils these type of roles helps<br />

them learn and appreciate the<br />

CONFIDENCE:<br />

Diamond<br />

<strong>Harbour</strong> year<br />

8 pupils are<br />

learning about<br />

responsibility,<br />

important roles<br />

and how to<br />

have public<br />

speaking skills<br />

that will win<br />

awards.<br />

school values of manaakitanga,<br />

Whanaungatanga, kaitiakitanga,<br />

maramatanga and hauora.<br />

She said the school was hoping<br />

to build up the pupils’ confidence<br />

as they would all be doing<br />

presentations to the rest of the<br />

school later on in the term.<br />

To help with their public<br />

speaking skills, they were<br />

treated with talks from Dallas<br />

Leigh-Martene, a multi-award<br />

winning keynote speaker and<br />

speech writer from the United<br />

Kingdom.<br />

Ms Pears said the pupils had<br />

learned a lot and hoped it had<br />

given them more confidence<br />

with their public speaking skills.<br />

THE NEW Diamond <strong>Harbour</strong><br />

School principal is finding the<br />

job busy, but rewarding.<br />

Jill Pears is in her third week<br />

as head of the school and knows<br />

it will come with its challenges,<br />

but she is enjoying the role.<br />

“I’m absolutely loving it.<br />

“I couldn’t be happier. They’re<br />

really lovely students,” she said.<br />

Ms Pears said the staff were<br />

welcoming and she has spent the<br />

first couple of weeks getting to<br />

know everybody.<br />

Before she took the role as<br />

principal, she was associate principal<br />

at Sumner School.<br />

Ms Pears said she has been in<br />

the education environment for<br />

more than 34 years as a piano<br />

teacher.<br />

However, when her children<br />

reached primary school, Ms<br />

Pears decided she wanted to embrace<br />

the teaching life fully and<br />

she trained to enter the school<br />

office permanently.<br />

Since then, Ms Pears has spent<br />

16 years working in school and<br />

loves the daily challenges it brings.<br />

HAPPY: The<br />

new Diamond<br />

<strong>Harbour</strong><br />

School<br />

principal Jill<br />

Pears has had<br />

a busy couple<br />

of weeks so far<br />

but is looking<br />

forward to the<br />

challenges. ​<br />

New principal settles in<br />

As a teacher who has always<br />

had an interest in technology,<br />

particularly coding, Ms Pears<br />

is looking forward to next year<br />

when digital technology will be<br />

fully-integrated into the classroom.<br />

She said it is a completely<br />

different way of teaching from<br />

when she started but one that<br />

is exciting and challenging to<br />

implement.<br />

Ms Pears said she wanted to<br />

create an environment where all<br />

the teachers are capable at teaching<br />

coding to the children.<br />

SKILL: Seven-year-old Charlie Hatley on the Sumner skate<br />

ramp for final time last Thursday. The Wakefield Ave skate<br />

ramp will be locked until Sumner Green and Skate Group<br />

find another site to build a ramp.<br />

Event farewells skate ramp<br />

• By Noah Graham<br />

MORE THAN <strong>15</strong>0 people<br />

celebrated the closing of the<br />

controversial Sumner skate<br />

ramp last Thursday night.<br />

With more than 70 children<br />

strapping on the knee and<br />

elbows guards and riding down<br />

the half pipe, the community<br />

came together one last time<br />

before the Wakefield Ave facility<br />

was permanently locked.<br />

The Sumner Green and Skate<br />

Group decided to close the<br />

skate ramp last week after local<br />

business complained it was<br />

causing too much noise and city<br />

council noise level tests showed<br />

it exceeded city plan noise<br />

standards.<br />

Sumner Green and Skate<br />

Group member Kimberly Mossman<br />

said the night was “bitter<br />

sweet”, but a lovely community<br />

event.<br />

She said the group would continue<br />

to work with city council<br />

to establish another skate ramp<br />

elsewhere in the community,<br />

preferably at 26 Nayland St.<br />

We said:<br />

The Sumner Green and<br />

Skate Group has closed<br />

down the Wakefield Ave<br />

skate ramp after it failed<br />

the city council’s noise<br />

level tests.<br />

You said:<br />

Michelle Hardy – Insulation<br />

under it will make it quieter,<br />

that’s what they did to the ramp<br />

in Methven, then put no skating<br />

after 10pm ( I think, could be<br />

9.30pm) stop taking things away<br />

from kids. Solutions are better<br />

than removal.<br />

Betty Campion – Is it close<br />

to houses? You will always get<br />

whingers who don’t like to see<br />

young people enjoying themselves.<br />

Maybe if a poll was taken<br />

this idea would not be supported!<br />

Rachel Crawford – I have<br />

to admit I agree with this. A<br />

neighbour four houses away had<br />

a skate ramp in their garden and<br />

it was super noisy, day and night.<br />

It sounded like someone was<br />

dragging a rubbish bin back and<br />

forth, day and night. I’m all for<br />

community gatherings and kids<br />

having somewhere to go, but if<br />

the actual sound of the skating<br />

could be minimised (insulation)<br />

in the first place, it would help all<br />

of the neighbours and businesses<br />

nearby stay sane. I’m guessing<br />

it was the sound we were hearing,<br />

the grating etc, that led to<br />

it being closed, not the actual<br />

people using it (like the sound of<br />

laughter and talking etc).<br />

Stewart Poi Kaa – So why<br />

not suggest insulation under the<br />

ramp? Surely we want to encourage<br />

our youth to be more active<br />

and outside enjoying themselves.<br />

If the location is the problem ,<br />

can’t all parties find a solution.<br />

Sometimes, I have to wonder<br />

how the city council operates or<br />

maybe it has offered alternatives<br />

and the article hasn’t covered<br />

those points.<br />

Lynn Wood – Summer you<br />

are too precious for sure . . .<br />

maybe some did a spot of whinging<br />

. . . and lo and behold the<br />

council are onto closing it down.<br />

Like I said Sumner, you are too<br />

precious and the council, well<br />

enough said. Are there not more<br />

important things to worry about?<br />

Ann Mason – For goodness<br />

sake can we stop all this. It is<br />

like people buying houses near<br />

the airport and then complaining<br />

about the noise. Too many<br />

whingers.<br />

Heather Wilkins – Michelle<br />

Hardy’s suggestion seems good.<br />

All you need is one or two people<br />

to complain and whacko it’s shut<br />

down. People need to get a life.<br />

I don’t see them complain about<br />

child poverty.<br />

Jo Garrick – From the article<br />

I read, the city council approved<br />

it being there in the first place.<br />

Now it says it has to go. So<br />

insulation is the key and no skating<br />

after 9.30pm to appease the<br />

whingers.<br />

Tiffany Burke – If this is<br />

the case maybe the city council<br />

should test my neighbours, and<br />

then take them away too, I bet<br />

they make more noise than<br />

happy kids playing on a ramp.<br />

Gary Fox – Kids these days<br />

don’t go outside like they used<br />

to . . . moments later “oh no,<br />

they’re making noise, shut it<br />

down!’’<br />

Penny Conaghan – That<br />

is just so pathetic. Some people<br />

just need something to complain<br />

about because they don’t have a<br />

life.<br />

Brenda Te Koeti – Recover<br />

in something else? Seems<br />

a shame to shut it down. It’s not<br />

like there’s a multitude of things<br />

for kids to do.<br />

Bobby Derek Pokoina –<br />

Give the kids another reason to<br />

play up on the streets. Stupid<br />

decision by a stupid city<br />

council.<br />

Moira Norton – Nimbys or<br />

front yard in this case.<br />

lets punish the kids why don’t<br />

we, find a solution instead of taking<br />

it away.<br />

job. Other benefits besides eliminating<br />

noise.<br />

let the kids have fun a little bit of<br />

kids have fun.<br />

PREFERRED: A computer-generated image of what the St Andrews Hill, Bridle Path and Main<br />

Rds intersection will become if option two is the final decision.<br />

Not enough intersection options<br />

Port Hills MP<br />

Ruth Dyson<br />

talks about the<br />

much-discussed<br />

Ferrymead<br />

intersection and<br />

how council has<br />

let the residents down.<br />

I remember the heated<br />

discussions that St Andrews<br />

Hill residents had with city<br />

council staff when the Main Rd<br />

intersection was first proposed.<br />

They said that it would be a<br />

shambles.<br />

The staff dismissed their views<br />

as being poorly informed.<br />

Well, guess what, it has turned<br />

out to be a shambles. The staff are<br />

now back out in the community<br />

holding consultation meetings<br />

about the options to fix the problems.<br />

So there is a pretty strong<br />

message there to be learnt about<br />

listening to locals from the start.<br />

But the consultation meetings<br />

and the options raise another<br />

couple of issues for me.<br />

The first is the time of the<br />

meetings. One was at Mt Pleasant<br />

Memorial Community Centre<br />

from 4.30–6pm. The second was<br />

at Heathcote community Centre<br />

from 5–6.30pm.<br />

Those are difficult times for<br />

people who are working in town<br />

or people who have young children<br />

who might be having their<br />

dinner at that time.<br />

Sure, people can submit without<br />

going to a meeting, but they<br />

are designed to give people information<br />

so their submission can<br />

be based on this information.<br />

A lot of people attended both<br />

but I am sure that a lot more<br />

people couldn’t make it.<br />

My second concern is about the<br />

narrowness of the options.<br />

The three options are – intersection<br />

as is, new traffic signals and<br />

new pre-signals and the third is<br />

no right turn from Bridle Path<br />

Rd to Main Rd towards Sumner<br />

unless you are coming from St<br />

Andrews Hill.<br />

I think there should always be a<br />

fourth option of – any other suggestions.<br />

With the three options<br />

we have been given, two of them<br />

will be pretty unacceptable – the<br />

intersection as it is which is causing<br />

so much frustration and risk,<br />

and the no right turn option.<br />

But is option two the best of the<br />

three?<br />

It seems like it will win by<br />

default rather than because it really<br />

fixes the problem in the best<br />

possible way.<br />

Look after roses during hot weather<br />

It’s hot out there!<br />

Rachel Vogan has<br />

tips to keep your<br />

roses performing at<br />

their best in summer<br />

conditions<br />

ROSES JUST say: “Look at me!”,<br />

and why wouldn’t you look at<br />

them? Coming in a tapestry<br />

of shapes, colours and sizes, it<br />

shouldn’t be any surprise they<br />

are the world’s most popular<br />

flower.<br />

One of the best things about<br />

roses is they have a very<br />

generous spirit and, even better,<br />

a forgiving nature. They just<br />

want to please, so if you don’t<br />

have the time or inclination to<br />

do anything with your roses at<br />

the moment, don’t panic, they<br />

are still going to grow – but if<br />

you do spend some time and<br />

energy on them, the rewards will<br />

speak for themselves.<br />

WATERING<br />

To keep roses at their best water<br />

deeply and avoid getting any<br />

water on the flowers or foliage.<br />

I know this sounds pedantic,<br />

but if you want a flawless flower<br />

that’s the best tip I can give you.<br />

Drop the hose nozzle down onto<br />

the ground and enjoy the plant’s<br />

beauty for 10 or 20 seconds, then<br />

move on to the next plant. If you<br />

do this twice a week, they will<br />

love you for it.<br />

Water on the leaves and flowers<br />

can cause all sorts of problems,<br />

especially fungal and disease<br />

issues, like black spot, mildew<br />

and rust. Prevention is far easier<br />

to manage, hence my suggestion<br />

to keep the water at ground<br />

level. When water sits on the<br />

petals overnight, especially as<br />

summer changes to autumn, the<br />

night air gets much cooler and<br />

the droplets can burn the petals<br />

leaving freckle-like spots on the<br />

flowers.<br />

BLOOMS: To create a new flush of stems like these<br />

(left), deadhead on a regular basis. Rose ‘Playboy’ is<br />

a real attention-getter with its colourful display;<br />

MULCHING & FEEDING<br />

Roses are hard-working plants,<br />

and they can chew through the<br />

soil’s nutrients quickly during<br />

hot periods. An application of<br />

rose fertiliser now and a thick<br />

layer of rose mulch will replenish<br />

the soil’s fertility and give it a<br />

welcome boost. If you did this<br />

back in spring, you can hold off<br />

until autumn, but if you missed<br />

this step do it now. The mulch<br />

helps keep the roots cooler and<br />

enables the soil to hold onto<br />

more moisture. Look for rosespecific<br />

fertiliser and mulch<br />

because it does the best job, and<br />

if you are feeling generous, a<br />

drench of seaweed tonic or liquid<br />

plant food won’t go unrewarded<br />

with bigger and better blooms.<br />

STAKING & TRAINING<br />

Staking is a good way to support<br />

standard roses from being<br />

thrown around in the wind. Use<br />

a thick stake, and tie the trunk<br />

to it with some sort of soft tie<br />

or stocking. With climbers, the<br />

stems are quite pliable when they<br />

are young. On a regular basis,<br />

secure the new stems while they<br />

are still malleable to whatever<br />

structure you are growing them<br />

up. Cable ties are easy to use and<br />

blend into the background.<br />

DEADHEADING<br />

Deadheading is an easy job. By<br />

doing it on a regular basis, it<br />

speeds up the repeat flowering<br />

and makes for a tidier plant.<br />

Either remove the dead flower<br />

head or cut the stem down to<br />

the first or second set of leaves.<br />

When you are doing this, also<br />

consider the overall shape of the<br />

plant and trim longer branches<br />

back to encourage a bushier<br />

plant and to even up the growth<br />

habit.<br />

CUT FLOWERS<br />

Keep picking roses. The best<br />

time of day to pick them is first<br />

thing in the morning. Plunge<br />

them straight into a bucket of<br />

water to the neck of the bloom.<br />

They will happily sit like this for<br />

hours if you don’t have time to<br />

make an arrangement straight<br />

after cutting them. Place them<br />

somewhere cool away from<br />

direct sunlight.<br />

PROBLEMS<br />

Pests and diseases often appear<br />

at this time of year due to the<br />

hot temperatures and<br />

inconsistent watering. If<br />

problems occur, spray as soon<br />

as you spot a problem. Again,<br />

prevention is better than cure,<br />

so a regular spray programme<br />

to prevent issues is always best.<br />

Memorial matches on Sunday<br />

Craig anderson<br />

Goldsmith<br />

has moved<br />

• By Noah Graham<br />

THIS SUNDAY will mark five<br />

years of hitting the pitch hard<br />

and playing off the right foot in<br />

memory of a Sumner sporting<br />

legend.<br />

Sumner Cricket Club will<br />

host its annual three T20 games<br />

one after another from 9am at<br />

St Leonards Square.<br />

The first game will be a junior<br />

and coaches match, followed by<br />

Sumner Wave against Sumner<br />

Invitational XI, with the Club<br />

Captain’s XI against President’s<br />

XI finishing the day.<br />

Club captain Dan Vann<br />

said the games are played to<br />

commemorate “the legend” Des<br />

Lyons who passed away in 2012<br />

at the age of 71, and his role<br />

within the community.<br />

The second game will feature<br />

players invited from Sumner<br />

clubs which Lyons contributed<br />

to, and the Sumner rugby team.<br />

Since 1956, when <strong>15</strong>-year-old<br />

Lyons first joined the SCC,<br />

he had played and worked<br />

continuously for the club and<br />

maintained the St Leonards<br />

Square ground while also<br />

contributing to the community<br />

through other Sumner sports.<br />

Lyons looked after the St<br />

Leonards Square wicket and<br />

ground, was a surf lifesaver and<br />

was involved with tennis, golf,<br />

squash, water polo, hockey,<br />

bowls and rugby clubs.<br />

Vann said the day was a good<br />

way to remember Lyons and his<br />

efforts, while also a chance to<br />

raise money for the club to keep<br />

it improving.<br />

Each player in the last game<br />

of the day will be sponsored by<br />

a local business with the money<br />

going to the SCC. It will be a<br />

great day for families with<br />

food and drink available, Vann<br />

said.<br />

Purchase Pitfalls<br />

– LIMs and Meth Tests<br />

ADVERTORIAL<br />

When purchasing a property a sale<br />

and purchase agreement will often<br />

include a number of purchaser’s<br />

conditions giving purchasers the<br />

opportunity to carry out and be<br />

satisfied with their due diligence<br />

before they are required to<br />

commit to the purchase. Common<br />

conditions relate to checking<br />

the legal title, the Council’s<br />

Land Information Memorandum<br />

(LIM), obtaining engineering,<br />

geotechnical or other professional<br />

reports, a building report, finance<br />

and insurance and general due<br />

diligence.<br />

Although the above conditions<br />

are important considerations,<br />

this article will focus on just two<br />

of them: obtaining your own LIM<br />

and the relatively recent condition<br />

relating to methamphetamine<br />

testing of a house.<br />

LIMs<br />

LIMs provide a summary of<br />

the Council’s information on<br />

the property and include rates<br />

information, resource consents<br />

issued, building consents and<br />

permits issued, potential land<br />

contamination, zoning information,<br />

and now more recently, notification<br />

if a property has been tested and<br />

identified as being the subject of<br />

methamphetamine contamination.<br />

There is a widely accepted practice<br />

for real estate agents to purchase<br />

LIMs on behalf of their vendor<br />

clients in order to supply copies to<br />

prospective buyers. This has the<br />

obvious advantage of being able<br />

to provide this information from<br />

the outset before an agreement is<br />

even formed. Even though many<br />

purchasers would be wise to have<br />

their lawyer consider the LIM, the<br />

vendor providing it cuts down<br />

the time required to then order it<br />

from the Council. This is especially<br />

common in auctions, where bidders<br />

are bidding to purchase on an<br />

unconditional basis.<br />

The problem with relying on a LIM<br />

supplied to someone else (the<br />

agent or the vendor or even a<br />

previous purchaser on a collapsed<br />

sale) is that there is no direct<br />

relationship/contract with the<br />

Council, meaning that if you did not<br />

order and pay for the LIM you will<br />

have no claim against the Council<br />

if there is inaccurate information<br />

in that LIM. It is important to<br />

note that it is also common for<br />

other property reports (building,<br />

engineering, valuations) to<br />

specifically exclude any liability to<br />

third parties who have not ordered<br />

and paid for the relevant report.<br />

If you intend to be able to rely on<br />

the information provided in a LIM,<br />

then you may wish to ensure that<br />

you order your own LIM.<br />

Meth Testing<br />

This is more of a recent concern<br />

to home buyers and has been<br />

highlighted in the media with<br />

stories of first home buyers<br />

having to spend thousands on<br />

repairing their meth-contaminated<br />

homes. The remediation of<br />

meth-contaminated homes is<br />

not usually covered in residential<br />

insurance policies. For this reason<br />

it is becoming increasingly more<br />

common to have conditions in an<br />

agreement for sale and purchase<br />

for the carrying out of meth-testing.<br />

The “cooking” of<br />

Methamphetamine, a Class<br />

A controlled drug, in houses<br />

produces a toxic waste, which<br />

can contaminate the interior of<br />

a home. There are currently no<br />

agreed safe levels when measuring<br />

contamination in a home, but at<br />

present, a standards committee<br />

is working on developing a<br />

new standard which will cover<br />

the testing and remediation of<br />

contaminated houses.<br />

There are a number of protections<br />

for the unsuspecting purchaser.<br />

Although a vendor warrants in the<br />

fine print of an agreement for sale<br />

and purchase that they will declare<br />

if they have received any notice or<br />

requirement or have knowledge<br />

of any outstanding order from a<br />

council or other statutory body,<br />

including any tenant, such warranty<br />

does not extend to previous owners<br />

of the house.<br />

A real estate agent must disclose<br />

any known information and may<br />

be prosecuted if they don’t and<br />

continue to market a property with<br />

the knowledge that the property<br />

was used for the manufacture of<br />

methamphetamine.<br />

Landlords, agents and property<br />

managers also have statutory<br />

obligations under the Health Act<br />

and the Building Act to rectify any<br />

chemical hazards on a property<br />

they own, or act as agent for the<br />

owner.<br />

Even with these statutory<br />

protections, a purchaser may<br />

still be wise to carry out testing<br />

before going unconditional on<br />

their purchase. This is particularly<br />

so where a property is or has<br />

been a rental property, has been<br />

frequented by many different<br />

visitors, has high fences, security<br />

systems and curtains drawn during<br />

the day. Physical aspects of the<br />

property such as stained concrete<br />

surrounding drains, different<br />

ventilation systems, discoloration of<br />

benches and ceilings and corrosion<br />

of fittings around taps, sinks and<br />

stove tops, may also indicate<br />

contamination has occurred.<br />

If you are purchasing a new<br />

property, I would be happy to assist<br />

you in ensuring your agreement<br />

to purchase includes conditions<br />

to protect you. Each property<br />

is unique and each purchaser is<br />

unique. It is important that the<br />

conditions in an agreement for sale<br />

and purchase are drafted in a way<br />

that reflect your position.<br />

BAY HARBOUR<br />

PAGE 19<br />

• By Noah Graham<br />

MORE THAN 30 competitors<br />

will grab their kiteboards to<br />

ride the waves and wind at the<br />

16th Canterbury Kiteboarding<br />

Championship this weekend.<br />

Kiteboarders from around the<br />

South Island will brave the Avonhead<br />

Estuary to display their<br />

talent in the annual competition.<br />

The competition consists of<br />

two divisions – freestyle and<br />

foiling – where the kiteboarders<br />

will compete in four-man heats<br />

for 10 minutes at a time. They<br />

perform tricks and are judged on<br />

the power, height and technical<br />

difficulty and overall appearance<br />

of the trip.<br />

From each heat, two people go<br />

through to the final.<br />

Canterbury Windsport Association<br />

president Martin Harris<br />

said it was a great way to spend<br />

an afternoon, although it can be<br />

a bit cold.<br />

“It’s a cool sport to watch as<br />

you’re close to the action but it’s<br />

a cold sport to watch. People will<br />

need to bring a coat,” he said.<br />

The competition will run from<br />

about 2-6pm on Saturday and<br />

Sunday, but could change depending<br />

on the wind speed.<br />

Harris has competed in the<br />

competition for 10 years and said<br />

SPORTS<br />

Kiteboard championship<br />

rides into Avonhead<br />

AIR: Brad Wang, 17, will<br />

compete in the men’s<br />

division of the Canterbury<br />

Kiteboarding Championship.<br />

it will go ahead if the wind speed<br />

reaches <strong>15</strong>knots, about 30km/h.<br />

Harris said there are men’s,<br />

women’s and under-18 categories.<br />

Everyone is welcome to enter on<br />

the day if they are a member of<br />

the Canterbury Windsport Association<br />

along with a $<strong>15</strong> entry fee.<br />

Last year, Jackson Mills won<br />

the men’s title for the fifth time<br />

in a row and is looking for his<br />

sixth this year. Brad Wang won<br />

the under-18 men’s title and Ariana<br />

Smith won the women’s.<br />

Harris said if people came<br />

and watched, they would not be<br />

disappointed.<br />

Redcliffs’ mother wins<br />

ninth windsurfing title<br />

• By Noah Graham<br />

MERIVALE HOUSE of Travel<br />

owner Annie Crombie is<br />

revelling in her success after<br />

winning a national windsurfing<br />

championship for the ninth<br />

time.<br />

Crombie faced five other<br />

competitors and battled through<br />

10 rounds of races to finish with<br />

seven wins and three seconds on<br />

the clock, which secured her another<br />

Boardstore New Zealand<br />

Windsurfing Slalom Nationals<br />

title.<br />

She said the competition was<br />

tough and made her “puff a lot,”<br />

but it was the first time since<br />

she started windsurfing competitively<br />

that she did not have<br />

nerves before the race in spite of<br />

the strong competition.<br />

The 49-year-old has windsurfed<br />

for more than 25 years<br />

and started competing in 2007.<br />

The races were harder this<br />

year than they ever had been,<br />

Crombie said.<br />

She said 19-year-old Lyttelton<br />

resident Fenella Bowater raced<br />

alongside her and pushed her to<br />

her limits. Bowater won three of<br />

the races.<br />

The competitors this year were<br />

exceptional both on and off the<br />

water as they got along well inbetween<br />

races, often talking and<br />

having some fun, Crombie said.<br />

SUCCESS: Redcliffs’ mother Annie Crombie claimed her ninth<br />

national windsurfing title recently.<br />

In the under-20 women’s<br />

event, Bowater took first<br />

spot and another Lyttelton<br />

competitor, Meg Rennie, <strong>15</strong>, was<br />

second.<br />

In the under-20 men’s event,<br />

former Christ’s College student<br />

Thomas O’Neill and current<br />

student Ben Davie took second<br />

and third.<br />

Terry Crombie, Annie’s<br />

husband, also competed in the<br />

men’s open and was winning<br />

for two days before Maui’s Peter<br />

John came from behind.<br />

Annie Crombie said windsurfing<br />

runs through her family’s<br />

genes. Her <strong>15</strong>-year-old daughter,<br />

Kate, is also a keen windsurfer.<br />

Crombie said her family was<br />

incredibly proud of her and she<br />

was proud of herself as well.<br />

“I feel stoked, I feel proud. I<br />

raced at national level and it’s<br />

really satisfying to do.”<br />

She said the 10th title is in her<br />

sights but Bowater will not make<br />

it easy.<br />
