Traffic lights change at intersection
• By Caitlin Miles
TRAFFIC LIGHTS at the
controversial St Andrews
Hill intersection will be
reprogrammed to try and ease
confusion for motorists.
The left arrow light at the
Main Rd traffic lights will be
reprogrammed to allow for
vehicles wanting to turn right off
St Andrews Hill Rd onto Bridle
Path Rd a better chance to get
across a lane.
Heathcote Ward city councillor
Sara Templeton said: “This
will allow St Andrews Hill to
clear without worrying about
unseen traffic coming around
the corner.”
Lights on Main and Bridle Path
Rds will communicate and allow
traffic to flow better.
Residents in the area have
complained about the layout and
design of the intersection suggesting
that it would not work
even before it was built.
Three options were presented
for public consultation last year –
640 submissions were received.
Option one proposed to leave
the intersection as is, option two
would see new traffic signals on
St Andrews Hill Rd and new
pre-signals on Bridle Path Rd
and option three is to ban right
turns from Bridle Path Rd onto
Main Rd.
None of these options
were given the green light by
Linwood-Central-Heathcote
Community Board.
They have decided to change
the light phasing which will be
trialled for three months.
When it starts is yet to be
determined.

think altering the traffic
lights on Main Rd will help

Andrews Hill intersection?

FROM
THE
EDITOR’S
DESK
THE NEXT three months will
determine whether a solution
to the confusing St Andrews
Hill traffic junction problem has
FINALLY been solved.
This has been one painful saga.
Bay Harbour News has pushed
for improvements to the St Andrews
Hill/Main/Bridle Path Rds
intersection since residents came
to us many moons ago with well
thought out concerns.
How correct they were. The
problem was city council staff
didn’t listen. But now we just
might have a solution, which you
can read about on page 1.

Dirty tunnel draws criticism
• By Caitlin Miles
THE CLEANLINESS of the
Lyttelton Tunnel is in the
spotlight.
Lyttelton Community Association
chairman Ken Maynard
said the state of the tunnel has
“been a problem for a while.”
“There are black
streaks down the
walls. It needs a
general spring
clean,” Mr Maynard
said.
Ken
Maynard
New Zealand
Transport Agency
is in charge of the
tunnel’s maintenance
– it receives about one
complaint every month.
NZTA maintenance contract
manager Barry Stratton said
since the February 22, 2011,
earthquake things had got worse.
“There are a number of reasons
why the tunnel is currently, and
since the earthquakes, a much
dirtier environment than it used
to be,” Mr Stratton said.
After the tunnel was reopened
following the earthquake, up to
eight tonnes of dirt and dust was
cleared from the tunnel every
month.
As a result, last year NZTA
made the Covered Loads bylaw
to stop loose material flying off
trucks and settling in the tunnel.
Since then the most recent
dust count has more than
halved.
“The bylaw does not capture
dirt on other parts of trucks for
example, the wheels, but it has
had a noticeable and useful effect,”
he said.
However, Mr Maynard said
he didn’t think the bylaw had
much of an impact as it was still
covered in dirt.
He said it was not appealing to
tourists either.
“If you’re a tourist and your
first view of Lyttelton is the tunnel
it is not a good look,” he said.
The tunnel walls are washed
every three weeks, but Mr Maynard
said he thinks it needs to be
done more often.
The most recent clean was
carried out last Thursday, but
it was not completed due to a
machinery malfunction. The
remainder of the work will

scheduled wall wash.
Mr Stratton said while the
cleaning is carried out traffic
is down to one lane to keep it
moving.

In Brief
SKATE PARK WORKSHOP
A permanent skate park is one
step closer to finding a home in
the Sumner/Ferrymead areas.
A community workshop will
be held at 6pm on July 24 at the
Redcliffs Mt Pleasant Bowling
Club to get input into what
is important in a site. While
locations were identified in 2009,
the city council decided to look
again due to the changes the
February 22, 2011, earthquake
made on land. Once sites are
identified the Linwood-Central-
Heathcote Community Board,
would then consider the options
– prior to being put out for
public consultation.
ROAD CLOSURE
A section of Nayland St in
Sumner is closed while a new
car park is constructed and
upgrades are made to the road.
The section, between Wakefield
Ave and Richmond Hill Rd will
be closed until July 14.
CORRECTION

Redcliffs architect behind Linwood redesign
• By Bridget Rutherford
A REDCLIFFS architect will
lead the redesign of Linwood
College.
Architectus director Carsten
Auer will be the project manager
in the school’s full redevelopment
and rebuild.
His previous work includes
Lyttelton Primary School’s master
plan, the city’s Innovation
Precinct spatial framework, St
Cuthbert’s College performing
arts centre and Auckland Grammar
School’s sports complex.
Mr Auer said schools were
more than places to learn – they
helped shape the identity of the
community.
So any design had to reflect
that and the values and culture
of the community.
“This project is special not only
for its scale, but in particular for
the strong pedagogical vision
developed by the college and the
leadership role it is looking to
undertake in the revitalisation of
the eastern suburbs of Christchurch.”
He said the project was
personal for him as he lived
in Redcliffs, which was part of
Linwood’s catchment, and he
wanted to contribute to shaping
the future of the school.
“I believe the current college
leadership is working successfully
to rebuild the confidence of
all of their community in what
Linwood College has to, and can,
offer.”
Architectus’ other projects
include the bus interchange, St
PHOTO: MARTIN HUNTER
Andrew’s chapel, the central
city’s new Knowledge Centre,
and more than 30 school projects
across the country.
Linwood principal Richard
Edmundson said the awarding of
the contract was a step forward.
VALUES: Architect Carsten Auer, who will redesign Linwood
College, stands in the recreation area. (Above) The awardwinning
St Andrew’s College chapel.
“We’re absolutely delighted
to have someone of Carsten’s
reputation and his work in
understanding communities and
how buildings can support the
community,” he said.
“It’s Linwood’s turn.”
The school’s buildings
have reached the end of their
lifespan, and it has carried out
significant consultation with the
community on how it could look
and feel better.
Mr Edmundson said the
current roll was 650, but the
master plan was being done for
1800.
It wants to become the school
of choice for students living in
its catchment, including Sumner,
Redcliffs, Mt Pleasant, and
Lyttelton, many of whom travel
to schools on the other side of
town.

Governors Bay speed
solution sought
• By Caitlin Miles
Rosie Belton
Andrew Turner
SOLUTIONS TO the issue of
motorists speeding in Governors
Bay may soon be on the horizon.
Governors Bay residents met
with Deputy Mayor Andrew
Turner to discuss the issues and
potential solutions to stop boy
racers and other drivers speeding
through the area.
For several years, Rosie Belton
has been campaigning for something
to be done and has been
reassured action will happen,
following the meeting with Cr
Turner.
Cr Turner said he has been
in discussions with city council
staff around the options of larger
speed signs and slowing down
the entry speed into the area
from 100km/h to 70km/h.
“Governors Bay is definitely on
the radar,” Cr Turner said.
Ms Belton said while it was a
step in the right direction she
would like to see the options ‘presented
in writing’ so she could
be a bit more relaxed something
would happen.
“We know it is in the city council’s
plans but we don’t want to
be waiting a long time, we want
it down as soon as possible,” Ms
Belton said.
Cr Turner said the community
will soon be asked to have their
say on putting ‘restricted times’
on Summit Rd to deter boy racers
and stop them from using Summit
Rd.
Ms Belton said she is in full
support of the idea and thinks it
will also help reduce the problems
in Governors Bay.
No parking cost for residents

The ideas included reducing
the number of plastic bags used,
organising beach clean-up days,
and improving the understanding
of how local terrestrial and
marine ecosystems work.

• By Caitlin Miles
RESIDENTS WILL not have to
pay to park on Clifton Tce.
Linwood-Central-Heathcote
Community Board members
were split on the issue of making
four ‘residents only’ car parks
below number 11 Clifton Tce.
The issue was raised by residents
who expressed concern
over difficultly finding parks on
the narrow stretch of road.
When the city council suggested
making current free parks
into ‘residents only’ and putting
a yearly fee on them, it was
met with mixed reviews from
residents.
Ten residents responded,
with five submitters against the
proposal and five supporting the
idea.
The community board previously
decided to hold off on
making a decision until it could
go to the site.
City council staff recommended
‘parking ticks’ be put in,
to outline where the parks are
but not to make them ‘resident
only’. However, it would make
it easier in the future to make
the parking residents only if the
issue was raised again.
The community board was
split on the issue, three supported
the staff recommendations,
three were against and two
declared a conflict of interest. As
a result the current parking will
remain the same, unmarked and
free.
Heathcote Ward city councillor
Sara Templeton said it was a
difficult to make a decision given
the community’s initial split
reaction to the plan.

Seafarers ask for port levy
• By Caitlin Miles
PUTTING A levy on ships
coming into Lyttelton Harbour
to help fund the Lyttelton
Seafarers’ Centre is unlikely.
The currently underfunded
Seafarers Charitable Trust wants
the Lyttelton Port of Christchurch
to put a levy on incoming
ships with the money going to
the centre, which is run by the
trust, so it can continue to operate.
The centre
serves seafarers
away from home
with shore-based
welfare facilities
when they travel
to Lyttelton.

Wilson
It is open
every night from
7-10pm and offers
internet, free food
and beverages
and somewhere
warm for seafarers
to stay while
they are in Lyttelton.
It is run by
volunteers.
Due to a lack of
funding the trust
is unable to provide sufficient
services as required under the
Maritime Labour Convention
recently signed by New Zealand.
This is why the trust is looking at

other funding options – including
asking for a levy.
However, Lyttelton Port of
Christchurch chief executive
Peter Davie indicated they would
not levy ships.
“The Lyttelton Seafarers Centre
is a facility for those who want to
use it and is not a Lyttelton Port
service. LPC currently provides
sponsorship to the Centre. The
largest ports in the North and
South Islands do not have a port
levy on ships which is given
to agencies to provide welfare
facilities for visiting seamen,” Mr
Davie said.
Banks Peninsula Community
Board chairwoman Christine
Wilson said the community
board has a “responsibility” to
provide for the men and women
coming into Lyttelton to be able
to provide them a way of contacting
their families.
The centre has been operating
out of a temporary building at 18
Norwich Quay since 2015, after
having lost its previous building
in the earthquakes.
City council staff are working
on a report to be presented to the
community board about what
other options the centre has
for funding and finding a more
permanent base.

BEING TURNED down by a
publisher didn’t stop Redcliffs
author Chris Llewelyn from
making his latest book available
to children and parents.
Mr Llewelyn said the book,
The Railway Bogie, is based on
a story he was told about 17
years ago when he was living in
London.
It’s a story about a sick boy
named Tom on the London tube
train.
Mr Llewelyn presented the
book to publishers, but said
while they enjoyed the story,
they wouldn’t publish it.
He has previously written
children’s books including How
does the giraffe get to work and A
seagull called Moose.
While he doesn’t have any
children of his own to test the
story on, he shared it with his
friends and their children. He
said they loved it so he decided
to try and crowdfund to get the
$3000 needed to print the book.
He put his cause on PledgeMe

amount of support he got from
friends as well as total strangers.

New rules planned for boat berths
CITY COUNCIL-owned
jetties and marinas in Banks
Peninsula will fall under a new
bylaw – if it is approved.
The Marine and River Facilities
Bylaw, which was put
into place in 2008, has been
reviewed and a new one is
proposed to replace it.
The purpose of the proposed
replacement bylaw is to
facilitate the fair and safe use
of, and access to, city council
marine, river and lake facilities,
and to protect them from
damage.
Time limits could be put on
mooring vessels at Akaroa,
Daly’s, Wainui and Diamond
Harbour wharves.
The bylaw will also regulate
activities that may occur on,
near or around the facilities;
aim to balance recreational and
commercial use and access;
prevent damage to the facilities;
protect health and safety; and
reduce nuisance issues.
Commercial use of the facilities
will still need city council
permission.
Tighter controls on vehicles
using the wharf have also been
proposed.
Vehicles will not be allowed
to be left unattended on the
wharf and can only be on
the wharf if they are actively
involved in servicing a business
or undertaking maintenance.
•Consultation on the
proposed new bylaw will
be open until August 6.
•The full bylaw can
be viewed on the city
council’s website – https://
www.ccc.govt.nz/thecouncil/consultations-andsubmissions/haveyoursay/

Lyttelton actor tackles big role
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding
TOM TREVELLA was a
late bloomer when it came to
securing his first professional
gig as an artist on stage.
Trevella, 46, spent his earlier
years travelling the world.
It wasn’t until the Lyttelton
resident returned to the city in
his 30s that he met director/
actor Derek Doddington and
his theatre career began to
blossom.
When Doddington founded
Top Dog Theatre in 2003,
Trevella was one of the first
performers to jump on
board by starring in Steven
Berkoff’s gritty drama West.
It was at Top Dog that Trevella
was spotted by The Court
Theatre’s artistic director Ross
Gumbley, who gave him his
first professional role in the
original play Happy Coupling
in 2006.
“During my 20s, I did a
lot of travelling and got life
experience in a way and was
able to bring that into theatre
. . . it is not something I had a
concentrated effort to do, I just
sort of fell into it,” he said.
More than a decade on,
after establishing himself as a
regular in the city’s art scene,
he will feature in Top Dog’s
latest comedy Up ‘N’ Under by
CHALLENGE: The cast of Up ‘n’ Under – Tom Trevella as
Arthur (back left), Dougal Frame as Tony, Dan Crossen as
Frank, Miriam van Voorthuizen as Hazel (front left), Aaron
Boyce as Steve/Reg Welsh and Darren Sundborn as
Phil.
John Godber.
Trevella will play the role of
ex-professional rugby league
player Arthur who bets his life
savings he can train a team to
beat the undefeated ‘Wheatsheaf
Arms’.
He said the show is almost
a re-staging of Sylvester Stallone’s
movie Rocky – but told
through rugby league.
Trevella was also one of
the first on the scene when
the Loons Theatre Trust, now
the Lyttelton Arts Factory,
was established in 2007. He
still performs with the theatre
company.
He appeared in its first
production of The Butler by
Joe Bennett, which ended up
touring in Islington, London,
for three weeks.
Since the February 2011
earthquake, Trevella has
seen great changes in the
Lyttelton Arts Factory with
the establishment of its new
building on 1 Sumner Rd.
Trevella is one of a limited
number in the city who have
managed to make theatre their
main profession.
“I don’t have an expensive
house, dog, car, partner or
children . . . those are the sort
of things a theatre career can’t
support,” he said.
When he returned home
from his travels, Trevella spent
several years working in varied
jobs in the city before he got
his first professional gig.
This included driving trams,
working at the Christchurch
Art Gallery and selling swimming
pool chemicals.
Trevella said a highlight of
his travels was living in New
York city for two years, where
he learned he is the smallest of
the small, a lesson which gave
him the licence to be whoever
he wanted to be.
•Up ‘N’ Under will run at
the Lyttelton Arts Factory
from July 12-22. To book
tickets, go to http://

Green MP
Eugenie
Sage writes
about the
importance
of planting
projects
and getting
involved
What are your favourite
local trees? The big norfolk
pines near Sumner Beach, the
magnificent oak trees in the
Heathcote Domain, or a native
tree in your or a neighbour’s
garden?
Trees protect the land by
holding together banks and
cliffs, reducing soil erosion,
soaking up rain and reducing
stormwater runoff. They
provide us with oxygen, filter
and absorb pollution, and
provide summer shade.
Trees make our
neighbourhoods more pleasant
and big trees which provide a
reference point, help create a
sense of place.
There are regular planting
days to help the Port Hills
recover from the fires. As the
Garden City, Christchurch
could also be leading the
country with urban planting in
our central city and suburbs.
Auckland city council
DEVASTATING: Replanting the Port Hills after February’s
fire is one visionary project to green our city.
recently launched its ambitious
Million Trees’ initiative to
plant over one million trees
over the next three years. It
aims to offset climate pollution
and protect stream health and
water quality with streambank
planting.
There are several visionary
projects to green our city by
planting trees and food crops
on former residential red
zone and other earthquake
damaged land.
The Avon-Otakaro Network
has a wonderful vision of
re-establishing the original
kahikatea forest which once
grew in wet soils close to
the river, to create an ecosanctuary
close to Travis
Wetland.
The Urban Forest Project
is re-generating an unused
former school field off Ferry
Rd.
The plan is to plant
thousands of native trees to
encourage native birds and
wildlife, and stabilise the land
to mitigate against future
flooding. The area will be
accessible to the public, in a
similar way to the Riccarton
Bush reserve, with sealed
pathways and boardwalks.
The Food Resilience
Network proposes edible
gardens to be planted on redzoned
land to improve access
to local healthy food.
The community driven,
Otākaro Orchard Project,
recently had a win, reaching its
fundraising goal to begin work
on their edible garden city
vision, by turning rubble into
an edible garden to create an
urban food hub.
These are all inspiring
initiatives for greening our
Garden City.
I hope the city council and
Regenerate Christchurch
can continue to encourage
urban planting projects, and
we can perhaps provide a bit
of healthy competition to
Auckland. It’s another reason
why City Care should remain
city council owned – to help
strengthen our Garden City
reputation.

Preparing to help out in a disaster
Community
preparedness
facilitator,
Robin Arnold
writes about
a recent
psychological
first aid training course
residents and groups in
Sumner, Redcliffs and Mt
Pleasant took part in, so
they can offer support to
those mentally-affected
in the aftermath of a
disaster
Residents across Sumner,
Redcliffs and Mt Pleasant
have been putting safety first,
training in first aid.
Residents and members
of Sumner Volunteer Fire
Brigade, Neighbourhood
Support, and Van Asch Deaf
Education Centre gathered for
training in psychological first
aid recently.
Psychological first aid is a
‘humane, supportive response
to a fellow human being who
is suffering and who may need
support’.
Since 2002, psychological
first aid has been recommended
as a key part of the
provision of psychosocial
support following emergencies
and traumatic events, and is
best delivered as a communitybased
activity.
It is estimated that 60-70
per cent of the population can
recover when basic needs are
met and they are connected
and supported by the people
and community around
them.
It is empowering to know
that our initial response and
care for each other in a disaster
can have such a positive and
profound impact on our ability
to recover.
Learning to be conscious of
our response and fully present
with someone can reduce
initial distress, support them to
meet current needs, promote

While a lot of this is common
sense, participants said it
was really helpful to learn simple
frameworks to follow, and
strengthened their confidence
in knowing how to approach
people, what to say, as well as
how to prioritise support in
emergency situations.
KNOWLEDGE:
The first aid
course was
attended by
many different
people in the
community.
There was a lot of thoughtprovoking
discussion, laughter
and connection throughout
the day. Participants were
impressed by the diversity
of skills, ability, age, gender
representing our community
and the ability of the two sign

up with translation.

US students pay visit
PERSONAL AND community
resilience connected families
from Sumner together with
students and teachers from two
United States high schools.
Twenty-four families in
Sumner played host for a week
to 33 students and teachers from
Punahou High School in Honolulu
and Riverdale School in New
York City.
There were taking part in a
programme about personal and
community resilience that was
facilitated by Canterbury University’s
community engagement
hub.
It wasn’t all serious though –
the group was treated to a beautiful
day on the water at Cass Bay
with Christchurch Paddleboarding,
volcano demonstrations by
Sumner resident Ben Kennedy,
a morning concert by Adam
McGrath and afternoon tea at St
Andrew’s College.
They also toured social innovation
sites that have arisen after
the earthquakes such as Gap
Filler’s Dance-o-Mat, the Ministry
of Awesome’s Coffee and
Jam, the Transitional Cathedral,
and the 185 Empty Chairs and
Earthquake Memorial.
Their hands got dirty too,

The students, both from
the US and Christchurch,
presented plans for improving
local communities that include
a portable community centre
in a container, collecting
and honouring the stories of
homeless people, a reward system
for doing things to combat
climate change, and establishing
a Student Volunteer Army in
more communities.
The visitors commented on
how close-knit and welcoming
the Sumner community is and
plans are already being made for
a visit to Hawaii and New York to
see how the other half operate.

Holden conceived the project

in November 2016 and the
portraits were hung in locations
around Lyttelton, associated
with either the past or present
subjects.
PAST MEETS PRESENT:
Lyttelton’s golden boy
Marlon Williams portrayed
here as British naval officer
Robert Falcon Scott.
For each person featured in the
exhibition, Holden found a present
day local connected to them,
either through occupation or
personal relationships, to serve
as a ‘living canvas’.
Accompanying historical audio
is complemented by recordings
of the participating locals
reflecting on their forebears.
The exhibition is on display
from now until October 23 at
Canterbury Museum.

Nel’s epic season continues
• By Gordon Findlater
ANOTHER dominant display
from No 8 Dylan Nel helped
Sumner to a 28-9 win over High
School Old Boys at St Leonards.
The South African-born player
scored two tries and helped set
up another on Saturday.
The 24-year-old now has 11
tries for Sumner this season
to lead all scorers in the metro
competition.
Nel’s also running away with
the MVP medal race – he has 19
points this season, six more than
his nearest rival.
After each game, the coaches
from both sides will decide on
three standout players from
the match who are given points
towards the end of season MVP
award.
His accomplishments this
season have helped the Martin
Dodgson-coached Sumner side
to lead section two of the metro
competition with two roundrobin
games remaining.
“He’s got an ability to break
tackles because he’s so big and
strong, but then he also has a
lot of speed for a big guy,” said
Dodgson.
Nel made the move to
Sumner from South Africa to
further develop his game and
is currently in his third season
with the ‘wave’. He led the team
with 10 tries last season – a feat
he has already eclipsed in 2017.
ON TOP: Dylan
Nel scored two

High School Old

metro competition

ROZELLE MAY
While he is making a name
for himself as a dominant ball
carrier, Dodgson believes Nel
also has the makings to be
a maestro when it comes to
turning the ball over at the break
down.
“If he’s finishing you off, he
will hurt you. If he bounces back
to his feet and gets back over the
ball you can’t move him,” said
Dodgson.
It’s no secret that Nel is highly
thought of by many in higher
ranks. Earlier this year, he was
rushed to South Africa as injury
cover for the Crusaders when
Kieran Read broke his thumb.
Nel has also been given a
SPORTS
recent Ranfurly Shield defence
over Wanganui, and it’s expected
he will play more of a role for the
provincial side later this year.
Going forward there’s every
chance it may not be long until
he features in Super Rugby.
“Who knows where his ceiling
is. He is just so single-minded
in his desire to get better,” said
Dodgson.
“He’s learning at the moment
to add a bit of variety, which he
will need at the next level.”
Saturday’s win over High
School Old Boys started as a
spectacle and ended in a mud
bath.
With the division two side
playing a curtain raiser in wet
conditions, it didn’t take long
for the St Leonards pitch to cut
up.
Nik Cumming and Poasa
Waqanibau scored first half
tries along with Nel’s double to
give Sumner a 28-9 advantage
at the break. By the second 40,
the middle of the pitch became a
sea of mud, enabling the wave to
keep rolling.
Sumner face a trip to Belfast
on Saturday before their final
handful of opportunities for round-robin game against
tickets Canterbury, including on their sale Linwood at n St Leonards. w

SPORTS
START: Several Sumner runners got to the front of the pack early in the grade 10 and under race.
Abi Scott-Douglas and Amelie Clark showed off their medals from the grade eight race.
Cross-country glory for Sumner
SUMNER RUNNING Club had
a successful outing at the South
Island cross-country champs at
the weekend.
Sumner runners took home a
number of titles at the Kennett
Cup Steeples at the Old Ascot
Golf course, QE II, on Saturday.
The juniors led the way at the
start of the day with Charlie Bailey
(boys 12) and Maddie Sharpe
(girls 12) bringing home the
club’s first medals, coming first
and third respectively.
The grade 10 and under race
saw a further six medals won.
Abi Scott-Douglas and Hero
Barretteli continued their recent
dominance by winning their
age groups, with Lucy Wheeler,
Brooklyn Aitken, Amelie Clark
and Fred Fitch, who celebrated
his seventh birthday, crossing the
line in third place.
The juniors also had success in
the team events, walking away
with four medals.
The club’s results did not stop
there. The masters 35-39 men’s
race saw Sumner dominate the
age group and take out the first
four spots with David Fitch winning
the line honours.

Mermaids take to the
field with Black Ferns
IT WAS a big moment for the
under-7 Mermaids rugby team
when they led the Black Ferns
onto the field recently.
The Lyttelton team also sung
the national anthem with them
before the Black Ferns faced off
against Australia.
Canterbury Rugby offered
them the chance to take part.
The Mermaids were formed
this season and have played
many games with very good
results.
Coach Ian Rees and managers,
Lisa and Chrissy, were
thrilled with the opportunity
given to the “all girls” ripper
rugby team.
They believed it promoted
girls playing rugby by giving
them the chance to proudly
represent their Lyttelton Rugby
Club.
The Black Ferns won 44–17
in the International Women’s
Series. They played at Rugby
Park.
Home, Sea & Between
JoSH BaSHford
The imagery in Josh Bashford’s new body of work was inspired by last summer’s
early morning and late evening fishing adventures. Adventures such as heading
40km offshore to fish for Groper off Banks Peninsula, or ducking down to
Birdlings Flat for a relaxing evening surf casting on the beach, fishing the Rakaia
River or Hurunui river mouth early morning for the elusive Chinook salmon.
These places are of great significance for Josh Bashford. They provide him with
not only a harvest of fresh kai for friends and family, but also the visual material
for his art making.
This visual material is sometimes captured on
a GoPro camera, but more often it’s caught by
simply being physically present in these very
special places. It’s the way a bird may move
through the air, a sudden glimpse of a fish
breaching, or the excitement of hundreds of birds
and kahawai chasing after small bait fish along
the beach. All this strong imagery settles itself
in Josh’s mind and has allowed him to produce
this new body of limited edition woodcut prints
on canvas.
Josh’s latest exhibition named ‘Home, Sea &
Between’ takes place at Little River Gallery from
July 8th until August 2nd.

Trees and Power Lines
The responsibilities of tree owners and Orion under the
Electricity (Hazards from Trees) Regulations 2003
Orion New Zealand owns and operates the electricity distribution network in central
Canterbury between the Waimakariri and Rakaia rivers and from the Canterbury coast
to Arthur’s Pass. Trees touching power lines account for 10-20% of all unplanned power
outages on our network. If you see a tree touching a power line, or any other hazardous
tree condition, please contact us immediately on 03 363 9898 or 0800 363 9898.
This advertisement provides a general notice of the Electricity (Hazards from Trees)
Regulations 2003 and the dangers of trees near power lines. More detail on these issues
can be found on our website www.oriongroup.co.nz or by phoning us on 03 363 9898.
The Electricity (Hazards from Trees) Regulations 2003
The regulations set out the responsibilities of electricity line companies and tree owners.
The purpose of the regulations is to protect the safety of the public and help to ensure a
secure supply of electricity. The regulations:
• define safe separation distances between trees and power lines
• specifies who is responsible for ensuring clearances are maintained
• places potential liability on the tree owner if any damage or accident occurs due to
trees touching power lines. (Note that the word “trees” includes all types of vegetation,
including shrubs, hedges and climbing vines.)
What are the dangers?
Trees near power lines need to be trimmed or removed for the following reasons:
• children like to climb trees and when trees are close to power lines there is a risk of
serious injury or death
• in severe weather conditions, vegetation can become electrically “live” and may
electrocute anyone or anything that touches it
• while a tree may not touch a power line in fine weather, branches can bend or break in
wind or snow storms, causing serious damage and possibly prolonged power outages
• in dry conditions, electrical sparking caused by branches or windblown debris on lines
may cause fires.
Minimum distances required between trees and power lines
The minimum distances that must be maintained between trees and power lines, defined in
the regulations, are outlined in the diagram to the right. A common sense approach, by tree
owners trimming trees early, will generally prevent trees touching power lines.
To maintain a safe distance from power lines some trees require cutting or trimming
more frequently than other trees, but if it is determined that cutting or trimming cannot
satisfactorily meet the requirement then removing the tree is recommended. Other
situations may require trees to be felled because they are at a distance that is considered
to be a hazard due to falling during storms or being diseased.
Orion’s tree management programme
Orion’s tree management programme is largely governed by the Electricity (Hazards from
Trees) Regulations 2003. Our programme involves education, monitoring and the cut/trim
or removal of trees that threaten to come into contact with power lines. Through this
programme we work with tree owners to minimise the risk of their trees touching power lines.
We currently undertake periodic cutting or trimming of vegetation within the notice zone.
The intent of this cutting or trimming is to support safety and reduce the risk of power
outages. This periodic cutting or trimming by us does not remove the tree owner’s
responsibilities and in the case of fast growing species may not be sufficient to ensure
that trees remain outside of the growth limit zone. You will be notified prior to any periodic
trimming being carried out and the work will be completed by arborists carrying Orion
identification.
If Orion becomes aware of a tree which is within the ‘Notice zone’ (see Tree “A” in the diagram
below) then we are required to issue the tree owner with a Hazard Warning notice. For trees
within the ‘Growth limit zone’ (see Tree “B” in the diagram below) we are required to issue the
tree owner with a Cut or Trim notice.
What is a hazard warning notice?
If a tree is within the “Notice zone” (see Tree “A” in the diagram), we are required to issue a
hazard warning notice to the tree owner.
Tree “A”
Notice
zone
Growth
limit
zone
Tree “B”
Power line Notice zone Growth limit zone
66kV (high voltage) 5.0 metres 4.0 metres
33kV (high voltage) 3.5 metres 2.5 metres
11kV (high voltage) 2.6 metres 1.6 metres
400V/230V (low voltage) 1.5 metres 0.5 metres
Note:
V = Volts; kV = kilo Volts ie 1,000 Volts
1) These distances are from the power line, not the power pole
2) These distances are a minimum and apply in all conditions including high wind or snow
3) In most instances the power lines that go to a house or building are low voltage power
lines. Power lines that go down a street may be low or high voltage.
Trimming trees near power lines
Trimming trees near power lines can be extremely hazardous and the dangers should not
be underestimated. Contact with a power line can cause:
• injury or death to yourself, family or passers by
• injury or death to livestock
• damage to property and other trees
• damage to electrical appliances
• damage to power supply facilities
• damage to third parties.
We recognise that the public is not always experienced in tree trimming, so we are happy
to advise you on this. We can arrange for trees near power lines to be trimmed at your
cost. If, however, you prefer to arrange your own tree trimming, we recommend you hire
professionals with the necessary expertise and safety procedures to competently carry out
this work.
If you or someone working for you intends to work within 4 metres of power lines, a close
approach consent is required from Orion before you start. As a tree owner you may be liable
for any damage caused by carrying out trimming or felling of trees.
A hazard warning notice alerts the tree owner that the tree has encroached the notice zone
and that if it encroaches the “Growth limit zone” (see Tree “B” in the diagram) a cut or trim
notice may be immediately given to the tree owner (see above).
The growth limit zone is the area around a power line which trees must not encroach even
in windy or snow conditions. The notice zone is a distance one metre beyond the growth
limit zone.
What is a cut or trim notice?
If we become aware that a tree has encroached on the “Growth limit zone”, we will give
notice in writing to the tree owner that the tree must be cut or timed to maintain the
distances prescribed in the regulations, and the timeframes for action.
If no action is taken Orion may then trim the tree and seek to recover costs.
Who pays for the cut or trim?
Orion is responsible for the first cut of trees near power lines, where the first cut is on a
property basis, not owner basis. We have already met this obligation by completing a first cut
of vegetation on all our lines.
The tree owner will need to organise and pay for any subsequent and future cuts or trims.
We are happy to provide tree owners with a list of approved arborists who can carry out this
work, and also advise the best solution given the circumstances.
What fines can be imposed?
A tree owner commits an offence where a cut or trim notice is given, and without reasonable
excuse, the tree owner fails to have the tree cut or trimmed and/or fails to advise us of the
time and location of the cut or trim.
A person who commits such an offence is liable on summary conviction to a fine not
exceeding $10,000. If the offence continues, that person is also liable for a further fine of
not more than $500 for every day or part day during which the offence continues.
Contact us if in any doubt about your tree
We aim to work with tree owners to ensure safety is maintained and power outages are
minimised. We will actively work with tree owners to see trees are trimmed or cut before
regulatory powers are applied. However, as we wish to ensure the safety and security of the
public, we will use the regulations where necessary.
Please contact us or an approved Orion tree trimming contractor to help with your trees,
or to discuss your options.
