Decision<br />

to restrict<br />

access<br />

to ferry<br />

terminal<br />

met with<br />

petition<br />

• By Sarla Donovan<br />

AN ONLINE petition calling<br />

for better public access to the<br />

Diamond <strong>Harbour</strong> ferry terminal<br />

has attracted 170 signatures in<br />

one week.<br />

Set up by the Diamond <strong>Harbour</strong><br />

Residents Association, the<br />

petition calls on the city council<br />

and Environment Canterbury to<br />

“ensure that within 100m of the<br />

Diamond <strong>Harbour</strong> ferry terminal,<br />

there is adequate bus parking<br />

on the Lyttelton wharf and that<br />

there is a drop-off/pick-up zone<br />

for private vehicles.”<br />

It follows a decision by the<br />

Lyttelton Port Company to<br />

reduce bus parking spaces from<br />

three to one and not provide a<br />

pick-up/drop-off zone.<br />

The Banks Peninsula Community<br />

Board is to have an urgent<br />

meeting with the LPC, ECan and<br />

the city council on Monday, to<br />

discuss the changes.<br />

FROM<br />

THE<br />

EDITOR’S<br />

DESK<br />

THE PRESSURE continues to<br />

build on the authorities over public<br />

access to the Diamond <strong>Harbour</strong><br />

ferry terminal in Lyttelton.<br />

We report on page 1 today an<br />

online petition over the issue has<br />

attracted 170 signatures in a week.<br />

The Diamond <strong>Harbour</strong><br />

Residents Association isn’t overly<br />

chuffed with what’s happening on<br />

the Lyttelton side and are showing<br />

they are willing to fight.<br />

The petition is targeted at the<br />

city council and Environment<br />

Canterbury as a way of circumnavigating<br />

some of the port company’s<br />

plans.<br />

What the residents’ association<br />

now needs is for the community<br />

board to stand alongside them and<br />

ensure the changes to the terminal<br />

are passenger friendly.<br />

As I said previously, the ferry<br />

terminal at Lyttelton is a shocker,<br />

and well overdue for a revamp.<br />

Critical to that revamp is making it<br />

passenger-friendly. – Barry Clarke<br />

Maori village goes to the dogs<br />

• By Bridget Rutherford and<br />

Sarla Donovan<br />

THE FERRYMEAD site that<br />

was once home to the failed<br />

Christchurch Maori Village<br />

could be turned into a dog park.<br />

City councillor Yani Johanson<br />

and the Linwood-Central-<br />

Heathcote Community Board<br />

have asked city council staff to<br />

prepare a<br />

report on<br />

whether the<br />

site could<br />

be used as a<br />

dog exercise<br />

area.<br />

The village<br />

was set up<br />

financial issues.<br />

Several larger buildings<br />

at the park were dismantled<br />

and transported back to the<br />

company’s Rotorua base after<br />

its closure in 2012, while huts<br />

and fencing from the replica Pa<br />

were sold to the Ko Tane Living<br />

Maori Village at Christchurch’s<br />

Willowbank Wildlife Park.<br />

The former landfill was remediated<br />

by the city council as part<br />

of its agreement with Tamaki<br />

Heritage Experiences.<br />

In 2014, the city council<br />

sought registrations of interest<br />

but failed to attract anyone.<br />

Cr Johanson said the site<br />

would be suited to a dog park.<br />

“There is a shortage of dog exercise<br />

areas in the bay harbour<br />

area. You’ve got the beaches but<br />

there’ve been restrictions put on<br />

Reserve.”<br />

There were dedicated dog<br />

exercise spaces in other parts of<br />

the city, including The Groynes,<br />

Victoria Park and Halswell<br />

Quarry.<br />

“This area and the central city<br />

are the two that stand out as not<br />

having a dedicated dog park.”<br />

PLAN: A report on whether<br />

the former Maori village<br />

site in Ferrymead could be<br />

turned into a dog park is<br />

expected before Christmas.<br />

they had to extract the biker by air<br />

banning it.<br />

RSA exploring options for clubrooms<br />

• By Sarla Donovan<br />

THE Sumner-Redcliffs RSA<br />

has been caught in no-man’s<br />

land since the February 22,<br />

2011, earthquake destroyed its<br />

Wakefield Ave clubrooms.<br />

Builder Ian Caldwell, 47, died<br />

when boulders from a cliff face<br />

crashed onto the RSA and a<br />

building site next door.<br />

The building was red-stickered<br />

and subsequently demolished in<br />

2014.<br />

Since then, the club has been<br />

without a headquarters and there<br />

are no current plans to rebuild.<br />

“We can’t,” president Bill Joines<br />

told the <strong>Bay</strong> <strong>Harbour</strong> News. “We<br />

don’t have any land.”<br />

Though the club has been looking<br />

at different options, there’s<br />

nothing concrete on the horizon.<br />

“We’re sounding out different<br />

places at the moment. We’ve had<br />

an insurance payout, but I don’t<br />

know if it will go to the extent of<br />

rebuilding.”<br />

Sumner-Redcliffs RSA was<br />

started in 1932, as a sub-branch<br />

of the Christchurch RSA.<br />

Early activities in the first year<br />

involved smoko, a social evening<br />

attended by the mayor and the<br />

club’s first annual dance.<br />

However, the new club looked<br />

after more than just social events.<br />

With high unemployment at<br />

that time, it was called upon to<br />

to 100.<br />

With no base, the regulars now<br />

meet at Sumner’s Village Inn on<br />

Thursdays at 5pm.<br />

Kitty Fenton is one of them –<br />

she says there’s usually about a<br />

dozen people there.<br />

“We meet and have a bit of a<br />

yarn, a catch up and a drink.<br />

Then at 6pm, the president says<br />

the Ode of Remembrance, ‘Lest<br />

We Forget.’”<br />

She says after six years, she’s<br />

got used to not having a building.<br />

Mr Joines, who served in the<br />

SAS from 1955-58, said one of<br />

the options they would consider<br />

was joining another local club,<br />

similar to what the New Brighton<br />

RSA had done.<br />

It’s now linked with the New<br />

Brighton Bowling Club with<br />

which it shares a room, becoming<br />

the New Brighton Bowling Club<br />

and RSA.<br />

Sumner Bowling Club secretary<br />

Colin Thompson said the<br />

idea had been brought up informally<br />

in the past, but no formal<br />

approach had been made by the<br />

Sumner RSA.<br />

Mr Thompson wouldn’t comment<br />

on whether the club would<br />

be open to the idea, saying it<br />

would be up to the committee.<br />

The bowling club’s Richmond<br />

Hill Rd clubrooms are being<br />

rebuilt next year, with work<br />

expected to start in April.<br />

Meanwhile, two 1947 bronze<br />

plaques commemorating the Anzacs<br />

– placed on stone columns at<br />

the entrance to the former RSA<br />

clubrooms – are to be brought<br />

out of storage and the columns<br />

rebuilt.<br />

The city council is working<br />

with stonemasons on the project<br />

and will look at reusing some<br />

of the original stone, which<br />

was salvaged and stockpiled in<br />

Lyttelton.<br />

Rawi Joines said she was looking<br />

forward to the columns being<br />

completed before next year’s<br />

Anzac day commemorations.<br />

Working group to look<br />

at future of Scott Park<br />

• By Sarla Donovan<br />

A WORKING group looking<br />

at the layout and future<br />

development of Scott Park in<br />

Mt Pleasant will meet next<br />

Wednesday.<br />

The group was set up after<br />

Coastal Pathway Group chairman<br />

Scott Babington last month<br />

raised concerns about public access<br />

to the Scott Park foreshore<br />

near the Ferrymead Bridge.<br />

Mr Babington said the meeting<br />

next week would be a chance<br />

to start developing an overall<br />

masterplan for park users. “We<br />

want to know what it’s going to<br />

look like in 10 years time.”<br />

The working group will<br />

include Linwood-Central-<br />

Heathcote Community Board<br />

chairwoman Sally Buck and<br />

board members Tim Lindley<br />

and Darrell Latham. The Coastal<br />

Pathway Trust, Mt Pleasant Residents<br />

Association, Windsport<br />

Association, Christchurch Yacht<br />

Club and the Mt Pleasant Scouts<br />

have also been invited.<br />

Mr Babington last month told<br />

the board fenced-off planting<br />

between the Coastal Pathway<br />

and the Mt Pleasant Yacht club’s<br />

new boatshed was making water<br />

IMPOSING:<br />

Mt Pleasant<br />

Yacht Club’s<br />

new boat<br />

shed is<br />

substantially<br />

larger than its<br />

predecessor.<br />

access difficult for the public.<br />

The boatshed was built this<br />

year to replace one damaged in<br />

the Canterbury earthquakes.<br />

With a footprint of 486m2<br />

and maximum height of 7.3m,<br />

it is substantially larger than the<br />

building it replaced, which was<br />

275m2 and approximately 4m<br />

high.<br />

A condition of the build,<br />

which wasn’t publicly notified,<br />

required the club to plant and<br />

maintain totara trees between<br />

the building and the coastal<br />

pathway.<br />

Dr Latham said he wanted to<br />

get a better overview of the issues<br />

relating to Scott Park.<br />

“I’m particularly interested<br />

in the access to the public boat<br />

ramp and jetty below the Ferrymead<br />

Bridge footpath and to<br />

the legal paper road that goes<br />

right along the foreshore in front<br />

of the shed and clubhouse.”<br />

He said it was curious that<br />

the Coastal Pathway ran along<br />

the edge of Main Rd rather than<br />

along the foreshore.<br />

Mr Babington said the group<br />

had wanted the Coastal Pathway<br />

to go beside the water but were<br />

put off during the design development<br />

stage.<br />

“We were very keen to go<br />

along the foreshore but one of<br />

the city council employees spoke<br />

very strongly . . . that yachting<br />

sports needed priority.”<br />

The meeting would provide<br />

the opportunity to “seek clarification<br />

on a range of issues,” Mr<br />

Babington said.<br />

GINGER CAT Mandu has a new<br />

home.<br />

Mandu featured in the <strong>Bay</strong><br />

<strong>Harbour</strong> News last month after<br />

he made friends with residents of<br />

Edith Cavell Lifecare in Sumner.<br />

A resident, Denise Brown,<br />

wanted to make sure he had a<br />

home, so she put out the call for<br />

the owner to get in touch.<br />

But no-one came forward to<br />

claim the ginger tom, so he’s now<br />

been adopted by the daughter of<br />

90-year-old Ed Cotter, who was<br />

one of his favourite residents at<br />

the rest home (hence the name,<br />

short for Kathmandu.)<br />

George Lowe, Earle Riddiford<br />

and Ed Hillary.<br />

Ms Brown said she very pleased<br />

Mandu had found a stable home<br />

with Jacqui Cotter, who lives in<br />

Brighton.<br />

“He went off quite happily<br />

on Saturday; he’s already been<br />

micro-chipped and the vet said<br />

he was two-years-old and a lovely<br />

cat.”<br />

Although some residents were<br />

upset to see him go, “one of the<br />

cooks cried,” Ms Brown said<br />

people were pleased he’d found a<br />

place to call home.<br />

as high principles clash bloodily with friendship, loyalty and<br />

love, and Ned soon finds himself on the opposite side from the<br />

girl he longs to marry, Margery Fitzgerald. Then Elizabeth Tudor<br />

becomes queen and all of Europe turns against England. The<br />

shrewd, determined young monarch sets up the country’s first<br />

secret service to give her early warning of assassination plots,<br />

rebellions and invasion plans. The true battle pitches those who<br />

believe in tolerance and compromise against the tyrants who<br />

would impose their ideas on everyone else - no matter the cost.<br />

kIDS bOOkS & AcTIvITIES<br />

The Thunderbolt Pony<br />

By Stacy Gregg<br />

A dramatic and emotional story about one girl’s determination to stand<br />

by her beloved animals – and her refusal to give up, even in the face of<br />

impossible odds. When a devastating earthquake hits Evie’s hometown<br />

of Parnassus on New Zealand’s South Island, she and the rest of the<br />

town are forced to evacuate. Evie’s injured mum is one of the first to be<br />

rescued by helicopter and Evie will be next. But when she realises that<br />

she will be forced to leave her beloved pony, Gus, her dog, Jock, and<br />

her cat Moxy behind, she is determined to find another way. Before the<br />

rescue helicopter returns, Evie flees with Gus, Jock and Moxy in a race<br />

against time across difficult terrain to reach the port of Kaikoura, where<br />

she has heard that people will be evacuated by ship in three days’<br />

time. Surely there will be space for her, Gus, Jock and Moxy there?<br />

But the journey is harder than Evie could ever have imagined, and<br />

with aftershocks constantly shaking, Evie will have to draw on all her<br />

bravery, strength, and resilience to bring her and her animals to safety<br />

... and hope that they reach the boat in time.<br />

The Wonderling By Mira Bartok<br />

In this extraordinary debut novel with its deft nod to Dickensian heroes<br />

and rogues, Mira Bartók tells the story of Arthur, a shy, fox-like foundling<br />

with only one ear and a desperate desire to belong, as he seeks his<br />

destiny. Welcome to the Home for Wayward and Misbegotten Creatures,<br />

an institution run by evil Miss Carbunkle, a cunning villainess who<br />

believes her terrified young charges exist only to serve and suffer. Part<br />

animal and part human, the groundlings toil in classroom and factory,<br />

forbidden to enjoy anything regular children have, most particularly<br />

singing and music. For the Wonderling, an innocent-hearted, one-eared,<br />

fox-like eleven-year-old with only a number rather than a proper name -<br />

a 13 etched on a medallion around his neck - it is the only home he has<br />

ever known. But unexpected courage leads him to acquire the loyalty of<br />

a young bird groundling named Trinket, who gives the Home’s loneliest<br />

inhabitant two incredible gifts: a real name - Arthur, like the good king<br />

in the old stories - and a best friend. Using Trinket’s ingenious invention,<br />

the pair escape over the wall and embark on an adventure that will take<br />

them out into the wider world and ultimately down the path of sweet<br />

Arthur’s true destiny.<br />

Bid to manage harbour gullies<br />

City council<br />

investigates<br />

committee’s<br />

request<br />

• By Sarla Donovan<br />

MORGAN’S GULLY and<br />

Sam’s Gully could be included<br />

in the Diamond <strong>Harbour</strong><br />

Reserve Management<br />

Committee brief.<br />

The Banks Peninsula<br />

Community Board has asked<br />

city council staff to investigate<br />

the possibility after a request<br />

from the committee last week.<br />

Though neither is a legal<br />

reserve, committee member<br />

Thomas Kulpe told the<br />

board it made sense to take<br />

responsibility for managing<br />

the gullies, as it meant the<br />

committee could officially<br />

commit resources to their<br />

development and maintenance.<br />

“It would (also) provide<br />

a democratic forum where<br />

the principles of the reserve<br />

committe can be applied. The<br />

problem at the moment is<br />

there’s no agreed principles<br />

and no vision for the amenities<br />

(which have been developed).<br />

RESPONSIBLE: The Diamond <strong>Harbour</strong> Reserve Management Committee wants Sam’s<br />

Gully (above) and Morgan’s Gully to come under its brief.<br />

There’s no co-ordination<br />

between organisations and no<br />

single point of contact.”<br />

The gullies sit in the<br />

middle of a 38ha block of city<br />

council-owned land, orginally<br />

purchased by a previous<br />

council to provide land for<br />

housing.<br />

Community groups have<br />

extensively planted both gullies<br />

and developed a footpath<br />

linking Diamond <strong>Harbour</strong><br />

School to Waipapa Ave.<br />

THANK YOU FOR<br />

YOUR SUPPORT<br />

Thank you to everyone who<br />

supported me and the National<br />

Party during the election<br />

campaign. I look forward to<br />

continuing to work hard for you as<br />

the National List MP based<br />

in the Port Hills.<br />

Authorised by Nuk Korako, 6/950 Ferry Rd,<br />

Ferrymead, Christchurch<br />

Previous attempts at having<br />

the gullies reserved have<br />

been rejected by the city<br />

council.<br />

Mr Kulpe said they weren’t<br />

trying to “gain reserve<br />

status by stealth”, but by<br />

improving the amenity value<br />

of the area it “may increase<br />

the attractiveness of the<br />

surrounding residential land in<br />

the future”.<br />

A city council property<br />

review currently under way<br />

has put a question mark over<br />

the future of the land-block the<br />

gullies sit within, along with<br />

about 30 other city councilowned<br />

properties across Banks<br />

Peninsula.<br />

However, community<br />

board chairwoman Christine<br />

Wilson, board member John<br />

McLister and Deputy Mayor<br />

Andrew Turner have all said<br />

they wouldn’t support any land<br />

being sold if it went against<br />

community wishes.<br />

Terminal plan met with petition<br />

•From page 1<br />

<strong>Bay</strong> <strong>Harbour</strong> News reported last<br />

week the community board had<br />

asked for the meeting after the<br />

newspaper revealed two weeks<br />

ago the LPC’s decision to reduce<br />

bus parking spaces to one and not<br />

provide a pick-up/drop-off zone.<br />

Diamond <strong>Harbour</strong> Residents<br />

Association chairman Richard<br />

Suggate told a board meeting last<br />

week that the LPC’s refusal to<br />

provide a drop-off zone would<br />

force the infirm, disabled or<br />

with heavy parcels, to walk from<br />

Norwich Quay.<br />

He said the ferry was the only<br />

link for Diamond <strong>Harbour</strong> residents<br />

if there were road closures<br />

and access should be suitable for<br />

people with disabilities, the elderly<br />

and very young, “including<br />

not having to use steps or walk<br />

long distances.”<br />

Port company chief executive<br />

Peter Davie said LPC staff met<br />

with the Banks Peninsula Community<br />

Board on July 31.<br />

“At that meeting staff showed<br />

board members the plans for<br />

the Diamond <strong>Harbour</strong> ferry<br />

upgrade and changed access for<br />

the buses. Our plans have not<br />

changed since presenting them<br />

to the Community Board in July.<br />

“At the July meeting we explained<br />

to the community board<br />

that there will be a reduction in<br />

space for the buses to park. LPC<br />

• Bag & Bulk - pick up or delivered<br />

David, Carol & Mike<br />

will provide one space for a bus<br />

to safely park and turn around.<br />

We are working with Environment<br />

Canterbury to ensure this<br />

has minimum impact on current<br />

services. This will not affect<br />

ferry users at all.<br />

“An upgrade of the existing<br />

Diamond <strong>Harbour</strong> Ferry<br />

facilities will take place at the<br />

same time as the LPC staff car<br />

park is being built adjacent to<br />

Waterfront House, the new LPC<br />

operations building. The work<br />

should be completed before<br />

Christmas.<br />

“After the upgrade, the existing<br />

ferry facilities will be significantly<br />

better in terms of amenity<br />

and safety. The upgrade also<br />

includes direct stair access onto<br />

the Oxford St overbridge, which<br />

people can use to get to the ferry.<br />

We are delighted to provide this<br />

as we know the community has<br />

been keen on stair access for<br />

some time.<br />

“Currently people cannot drive<br />

to the ferry and we have installed<br />

a sign on the bridge to remind<br />

people that the bridge is for port<br />

traffic and buses only. We are<br />

very happy to facilitate access<br />

for people who need to drop<br />

goods off or who are physically<br />

impaired.<br />

“We will work with Black Cat<br />

Cruises to enable people to have<br />

access. If there are particular<br />

items that require to be around<br />

50m closer to the ferry terminal<br />

than they can achieve via the<br />

stairs, then we will accommodate<br />

them through the port,’’ Mr<br />

Davie said.<br />

Sumner swimming pool<br />

faces funding shortfall<br />

LEAKS IN the Sumner<br />

community pool have been fixed<br />

ahead of the November opening<br />

– but the pool committee is now<br />

nearly $7000 in the red.<br />

An application to the Linwood-<br />

Central-Heathcote Community<br />

Board’s discretionary fund to<br />

help it cover the cost was declined,<br />

as the repairs are considered<br />

capital works and don’t fit<br />

the fund’s criteria.<br />

The pool committee is now<br />

looking for other funding sources<br />

to help cover the $6688 cost.<br />

Most of the running costs for<br />

the community-owned and managed<br />

pool come from key rental,<br />

with about 360 keys available for<br />

local families to rent at $150 a<br />

season.<br />

Committee member Liz Beaglehole<br />

said the leaks had to be<br />

fixed as they were pushing up the<br />

operational costs of heating and<br />

chlorinating water.<br />

She was confident of finding<br />

other avenues of funding.<br />

The pool, which is used by local<br />

school and community groups<br />

and families, is run by a committee<br />

of volunteers.<br />

It opens for the summer season<br />

on November 11 at 7am.<br />

Dimaond <strong>Harbour</strong> pupils have<br />

no trouble with Aladdin show<br />

SCHOOLS<br />

THE DIAMOND <strong>Harbour</strong><br />

School production, Aladdin<br />

Trouble, wowed the crowd at the<br />

Diamond <strong>Harbour</strong> community<br />

hall.<br />

The pantomime-style musical<br />

was filled with puns, corny dad<br />

jokes and, of course, a lot of<br />

singing. Every pupil was involved<br />

from the leading roles by year<br />

7s and 8s to dance routines and<br />

small acting roles for those in<br />

years 0-6.<br />

The leading roles were<br />

performed by Flora Dean as<br />

Scherazarde, Alex Cameron<br />

as the Sultan, Olive Tuipulotu<br />

as the Genie, with the baddie,<br />

Abanazar, played by Adam<br />

Anderson, and eventual love<br />

birds, Aladdin and Jasmine, were<br />

played by Tane Payne and Anna<br />

Clinch.<br />

The show wouldn’t have been<br />

complete without a pantomime<br />

dame – Widow Twankey was<br />

played by the extremely funny<br />

Darcy McMillan.<br />

Deputy principal Fiona Rice<br />

thanked everyone who helped<br />

behind the scenes with props<br />

and costume-making. “It really<br />

wouldn’t work without that<br />

support.” Year 7 pupil Poppy<br />

Kirkwood played one of the<br />

Gems who danced in Alladin’s<br />

cave of wonders.<br />

She said being involved in<br />

Aladdin Trouble was tough<br />

but rewarding. “I loved the<br />

production this year but it was<br />

hard work to keep up with school<br />

work and choreograph dances,<br />

plus learn my lines. But overall it<br />

was really fun.”<br />

The 52nd annual Lyttelton /Titahi <strong>Bay</strong> trip was another<br />

successful event. This year the Lyttelton U13’s travelled<br />

to Titahi <strong>Bay</strong>/Norths to play for the Challenge Shield and<br />

then hosted the Titahi <strong>Bay</strong>/Norths team two weeks later.<br />

Although the Lyttelton team were beaten in both games,<br />

the games were played in good spirit with Lyttelton playing<br />

adventurous rugby right to the end, although out played by<br />

a better team.<br />

Special thank you must go out to all our sponsors and<br />

supporters for their support towards this historic annual<br />

trip.<br />

Without your support this trip would not continue. As trip<br />

organiser I, Clinton Norris would like to make special thanks<br />

to Linda Preddy (Junior Club Captain) and Jodie Goodmanson<br />

(Club Treasurer) for their outstanding efforts in making this<br />

Port urged to leave<br />

ferry service alone<br />

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

resident and Banks<br />

Peninsula Community<br />

Board Mt Herbert<br />

representative, Felix<br />

Dawson, is unhappy<br />

with proposed<br />

changes to the ferry<br />

terminal<br />

Lyttelton Port Company is currently in<br />

the process of upgrading the Diamond<br />

<strong>Harbour</strong> ferry terminal services. This<br />

includes a re-configured waiting area,<br />

replacement of the previously removed<br />

pedestrian bridge and reduction of the bus<br />

parking area. The reduced bus area will<br />

exclude the opportunity for car drop-offs<br />

on the wharf, and possibly remove the bus<br />

pick-up service, relocating it to Norwich<br />

Quay. So the ferry upgrade involves a<br />

reduction in service.<br />

Black Cat has recently advised the<br />

Banks Peninsula Community Board<br />

that the ferry service provides more than<br />

100,000 passenger trips annually. This<br />

is made up of residents and visitors. For<br />

Diamond <strong>Harbour</strong> residents, the alternative<br />

transport option is a 35min winding<br />

drive. A recent slip off the side of the road<br />

in Church <strong>Bay</strong> has reduced the road to<br />

one lane. Any more slippage and the road<br />

is gone, with the only alternative a back<br />

road – little more than a badly paved stock<br />

route currently littered with sink holes,<br />

arising it would seem from a poorly laid<br />

sewer. If these roads become unusable –<br />

which is possible – the ferry becomes the<br />

only access to Diamond <strong>Harbour</strong>.<br />

The ferry service matters.<br />

LPC is currently proposing to reduce the<br />

service to “make better utilisation of the<br />

land”. That is, to provide car parks for its<br />

staff who are being shifted into their new<br />

offices about 400m away. So is the best utilisation<br />

car parking for about 100 people<br />

or public transport for 100,000?<br />

What is it with LPC? When it applied for<br />

a 40ha land reclamation consent, it argued<br />

that among other benefits, it would enable<br />

logs to be shifted from in front of Norwich<br />

Quay. It has reclaimed about 10ha which<br />

is now covered in newly-imported parked<br />

cars. LPC recently advised the board that<br />

moving the logs is 10 years away.<br />

On day one of the harbour dredging<br />

consent, the first question to LPC from the<br />

commissioner, fresh from reading about<br />

the new cruise ship berth to be built, was:<br />

Is the dredging required for the cruise<br />

ships?<br />

The LPC representative smoothly advised<br />

the panel that the answer was no, as<br />

the cruise ships have a shallow draft. We<br />

are now told that the appeal on the granting<br />

of the dredging consent will delay the<br />

cruise ship berth. Sorry local businesses.<br />

Now we have a multi-million dollar<br />

must-have office build without adequate<br />

parking, and for the sake of one bus park<br />

the poor old commuters will have to walk.<br />

Come on LPC – you guys are paid the<br />

big bucks. Do the job, do the right thing.<br />

Start talking to the users.<br />

Retain the current ferry service.<br />

Sixty Seconds<br />

You can never go back - but can you forgive?<br />

by Jesse Blackadder<br />

Inspired by the author’s own family experience.<br />

The Brennans - parents, Finn and Bridget, and their sons, Jarrah and Toby<br />

- have made a sea change, from chilly Hobart to subtropical Murwillumbah.<br />

Feeling like foreigners in this land of sun and surf, they’re still adjusting to<br />

work, school, and life in a sprawling purple weatherboard, when one morning,<br />

tragedy strikes.<br />

In the devastating aftermath, the questions fly. What really happened? And who’s to blame?<br />

Determined to protect his family, Finn finds himself under the police and media spotlight.<br />

Guilty and enraged, Bridget spends nights hunting answers in the last place imaginable.<br />

Jarrah - his innocence lost - faces a sudden and frightening adulthood where nothing is<br />

certain.<br />

Sixty Seconds is a haunting, redemptive story about forgiveness and hope.<br />

‘A beautiful work. One of the most moving and artistically satisfying endings I’ve read in a<br />

long while’ Susan Johnson, Courier Mail<br />

‘An unflinching but tender exploration of what happens when the worst happens, this<br />

achingly beautiful novel broke my heart. And then put it back together’ Wendy James,<br />

author<br />

‘Powerful and captivating - a novel you will not forget’ Eliza Henry-Jones, author.<br />

What does this button do?<br />

by Bruce Dickinson<br />

The first print run of the UK hardback edition will have black sprayed edges. In order to<br />

guarantee your copy, pre-order before the 19th <strong>October</strong>.<br />

‘I was spotty, wore an anorak, had biro-engraved flared blue jeans with “purple” and<br />

“Sabbath” written on the thighs, and rode an ear-splittingly uncool moped. Oh yes, and I<br />

wanted to be a drummer…’<br />

Bruce Dickinson – Iron Maiden’s legendary front man – is one of the world’s most iconic<br />

singers and songwriters. But there are many strings to Bruce’s bow, of which larger-than-life<br />

lead vocalist is just one. He is also an airline captain, aviation entrepreneur, motivational<br />

speaker, beer brewer, novelist, radio presenter, film scriptwriter and an international fencer:<br />

truly one of the most unique and interesting men in the world.<br />

In What Does this Button Do? Bruce contemplates the rollercoaster of life. He recounts – in<br />

his uniquely anarchic voice – the explosive exploits of his eccentric British childhood, the<br />

meteoric rise of Maiden, summoning the powers of darkness, the philosophy of fencing,<br />

brutishly beautiful Boeings and firmly dismissing cancer like an uninvited guest.<br />

Bold, honest, intelligent and funny, this long-awaited memoir captures the life, heart and<br />

mind of a true rock icon, and is guaranteed to inspire curious souls and hard-core fans<br />

alike.<br />

REAL ESTATE<br />

Your own slice of heaven on Scarborough<br />

50 Scarborough Road, Sumner<br />

Auction: Thursday, 19 <strong>October</strong> <strong>2017</strong> Unless Sold Prior<br />

2 bedrooms | 1 bathroom | 1 toilet | 1 living room | 1 office/study | 1 car-garage | Listing #FM5250<br />

Every second of every day reveals the<br />

ever changing wonder below this classic<br />

Scarborough home. Set in a private pocket<br />

on the mid slopes of Scarborough Hill, time<br />

seems to slow as you are forced to appreciate<br />

your surroundings and the broad expanse<br />

beyond, with views spanning from Sumner<br />

township and esplanade right across the city<br />

to the mountains and across Pegasus <strong>Bay</strong>.<br />

The house consists of two bedrooms<br />

on the main level, with another bedroom<br />

below, equipped with its own shower. The<br />

main bedroom has incredible views out over<br />

Sumner, with a sliding door opening out to the<br />

huge balcony. Part of the balcony is covered,<br />

enabling outdoor living and a connection to<br />

the views even on a rainy day.<br />

This connection to the outdoors and the<br />

view is maintained in the incredible living<br />

room with a 2m x 4m window that showcases<br />

the movement and life beyond. A low<br />

emission log burner provides all the warmth<br />

and ambience you need, with another large<br />

window connecting to the garden and<br />

trees outside. The modern kitchen, which<br />

also connects to the balcony and views is a<br />

pleasure to be in, with ample storage and<br />

bench space... making work feel more like<br />

relaxation.<br />

Below the house an established and very<br />

thoughtfully planned garden sprawls on<br />

numerous levels with interconnecting paths,<br />

and secret spots to relax in. A private patio<br />

area is ideal for entertaining or enjoying<br />

the late afternoon sun above the Alps. The<br />

Latest Christchurch news at www.star.kiwi<br />

property has had all retaining walls and stone<br />

walls replaced, including some paths and<br />

shares a double garage with on-street drive<br />

in access, as well as another large storage a<br />

similar size below this, meaning that your<br />

storage worries are more than covered.<br />

Opportunities like this are few and<br />

far between to grab your very own slice<br />

of heaven, and with further potential to<br />

reconfigure or extend, you’ll soon realise the<br />

true possibilities.<br />
