Flex and stretch for big yoga event<br />

Sumner yoga teacher Jess Smith will lead a pre-run stretch at the South Island’s first Wanderlust global lifestyle event at<br />

St Leonard’s Park, Sumner, on December 2. More than 1000 people are expected to take part in the 5km run/walk followed<br />

by group outdoor yoga, guided meditation and a range of workshops. Ms Smith, who is originally from Santa Cruz, California,<br />

said the run was aimed at people exercising together and getting endorphins going before dropping into the yoga. “That’s when<br />

the body relaxes; and they’ll have food and music and workshops.” She’s thrilled the organisers chose Sumner. “It’s the bee’s<br />

knees! We’ve got the hills, the ocean, it’s got that beach vibe, it’s got yoga – that whole chilled out feel. It seems like on a hot<br />

day everybody goes out there – flocks to the beach. It’s the Byron <strong>Bay</strong> of Christchurch.” She hopes a whole range of people will<br />

come and give yoga a try. “Mums, dads, teenagers, the local neighbourhood come and just give it a go.” ​<br />

Little River<br />

fire tanker<br />

least March<br />

• By Sarla Donovan<br />

LITTLE RIVER Fire Brigade’s<br />

30-year-old fire tanker won’t be<br />

replaced until after this summer<br />

– leaving firefighters and residents<br />

worried property could be put at<br />

risk.<br />

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

week that when Fire and Emergency<br />

New Zealand replaced the<br />

New Zealand Fire Service on July<br />

1, the city council took back Little<br />

River’s almost new water tanker,<br />

swapping it for a smaller, slower<br />

vehicle.<br />

Residents and Little River brigade<br />

chief fire officer David Irving<br />

are concerned the change would<br />

limit the brigade’s capacity in an<br />

emergency.<br />

Birdlings Flat resident Barb<br />

Gaeth has started a petition<br />

in response to community concerns.<br />

It was put up at a community<br />

breakfast event on Sunday, where<br />

it collected “quite a few” signatures,<br />

and has since been placed<br />

in the Little River library and the<br />

craft store.<br />

FROM<br />

THE<br />

EDITOR’S<br />

DESK News......................3-5, 10-13<br />

LITTLE RIVER residents and<br />

their fire chief are starting to get<br />

fairly agitated over the fact they<br />

won’t get a new tanker until after<br />

summer (see page 1).<br />

Last week we revealed the city<br />

council took back the brigade’s<br />

new tanker and replaced it with<br />

an older, slower tanker with less<br />

water capacity.<br />

Today we reveal the tanker<br />

won’t be replaced until March at<br />

least.<br />

The wet winter, which has<br />

prompted a lot of spring growth,<br />

combined with a potentially hot<br />

summer means we could be in<br />

for a dangerous fire season.<br />

So the people of Little River<br />

and beyond who are serviced<br />

by the fire brigade have every<br />

reason to be worried.<br />

A petition has been started<br />

and Little River fire chief David<br />

Irving continues to sound the<br />

alarm.<br />

Light phase overhaul likely<br />

• By Sarla Donovan<br />

ALL THE light phases at<br />

the problematic St Andrews<br />

Hill intersection could be<br />

resequenced.<br />

The troublespot was the focus<br />

of public consultation earlier<br />

this year, with the city council<br />

presenting three options to try<br />

and solve some of the problems.<br />

Though more<br />

than 600 submissions<br />

were<br />

received, none<br />

of the three<br />

options were<br />

green-lighted.<br />

Instead, the<br />

Ruth Dyson<br />

Linwood-Central-Heathcote<br />

Community Board opted in July<br />

to trial changing the Main Rd<br />

light phasing.<br />

But the trial never went ahead,<br />

after city council staff decided<br />

reprogramming the Main Rd<br />

left arrow light for city-bound<br />

traffic would create congestion.<br />

“The delays that would<br />

be incurred by vehicles on<br />

Main Rd and Ferry Rd would<br />

significantly increase queue<br />

lengths in the peak hours. The<br />

benefits to St Andrews Hill Rd<br />

(users) were minor and did not<br />

outweigh the dis-benefit to the<br />

main traffic flows,” said city<br />

council transport planning<br />

and delivery manager Mike<br />

Jacobson.<br />

He said another option to<br />

change the phasing sequence<br />

was being considered and they<br />

would inform the board about<br />

it this month. It would affect all<br />

phases of the lights at the Ferry<br />

Rd/Main Rd/Bridle Path Rd<br />

intersection.<br />

But Heathcote Ward city<br />

councillor Sara Templeton<br />

said the original intent of the<br />

board resolution to change the<br />

phasing sequence of the light<br />

was misunderstood, and staff<br />

investigated a timing change<br />

instead.<br />

“I was really disappointed.<br />

I’m hoping that the new<br />

assessment will be quickly<br />

done, so that we can go ahead<br />

with the trial and improve<br />

the movements and safety<br />

of residents coming down St<br />

TRICKY:<br />

Changes<br />

to all of the<br />

light phases<br />

at the St<br />

Andrews Hill<br />

intersection<br />

are being<br />

considered.<br />

PHOTO:<br />

MARTIN<br />

HUNTER ​<br />

Andrews Hill onto Bridle Path<br />

Rd.” Port Hills MP Ruth Dyson<br />

said she found the city council’s<br />

response frustrating.<br />

“They agreed that they would<br />

trial changing the phasing of<br />

the turning traffic signals at<br />

very little cost with a view to<br />

reducing the significant delays<br />

caused to traffic coming off<br />

the hill. For them to now say<br />

that the benefits would be<br />

outweighed by the negative<br />

consequences is puzzling.”<br />

LAND GIFTED TO MUSEUM<br />

A vacant site in the heart of<br />

Lyttelton could become home to<br />

a multi-million dollar museum<br />

as soon as 2020 after the city<br />

council agreed to gift the land at<br />

33-35 London St to the Lyttelton<br />

Historical Museum Society. The<br />

decision means the society can<br />

move ahead with plans to build<br />

a new museum, which it believes<br />

will become a major tourist<br />

attraction.<br />

COASTAL GIVE WAY SIGN<br />

A give way sign will be installed<br />

on the coastal pathway where<br />

it intersects with Scott Park’s<br />

Main Rd entrance. The Linwood-<br />

Central-Heathcote Community<br />

Board approved the sign at its<br />

meeting on Monday in response<br />

to safety concerns. It means<br />

walkers and cyclists will need<br />

to stop for vehicles entering or<br />

leaving the park.<br />

Part to play in climate change<br />

The city<br />

council is<br />

making<br />

headway in<br />

its push to<br />

reduce carbon<br />

emissions,<br />

writes<br />

Heathcote<br />

Ward city councillor Sara<br />

Templeton<br />

Last week the city council set<br />

itself the target of becoming a net<br />

carbon neutral organisation by<br />

2030; a key part of our strategic<br />

direction of climate change<br />

leadership.<br />

So, why is this important? Internationally,<br />

cities account for 75<br />

per cent of carbon emissions and<br />

it is up to each city to do its part to<br />

mitigate their impacts on the environment.<br />

Christchurch is a low<br />

lying, coastal city and is already<br />

feeling the impacts of climate<br />

change with increased extreme<br />

weather events and sea level rise.<br />

In the <strong>Bay</strong>s area, our<br />

communities are very aware<br />

of these impacts, with coastal<br />

inundation and erosion a hot<br />

topic over the last few years. The<br />

new Coastal Hazard Assessment<br />

Report from Tonkin and Taylor<br />

was released on Friday and a real<br />

conversation now needs to be had<br />

about how we are going to cope<br />

with these impacts as a city.<br />

As well as adapting to climate<br />

change, however, it is in our best<br />

interests to try and stop the effects<br />

being as bad as they could be by<br />

lowering our carbon footprint as<br />

individuals and as a city.<br />

The new Government has<br />

expressed an intention to legislate<br />

national targets for carbon neutrality<br />

and this will involve some<br />

major challenges and opportunities<br />

for our economy.<br />

While we are a small country,<br />

we need to play our part in the<br />

same way that larger countries<br />

do. All of the smaller countries<br />

(under one per cent of emissions)<br />

put together make up 23 per cent<br />

of global emissions, China is at 24<br />

per cent and the United States 15<br />

per cent.<br />

If we abdicate our responsibility,<br />

we would have no moral ground<br />

to ask others to act and let<br />

down future generations of New<br />

Zealanders.<br />

While we have only just set the<br />

target, we are already making<br />

progress to lower our emissions<br />

as a city council. We have just<br />

boosted the transition to LED<br />

street lights, with 7000 going in<br />

over the next year.<br />

The installation is cost-neutral,<br />

but will save ratepayers significant<br />

money in maintenance and<br />

electricity costs over the next<br />

decade. We will also have an<br />

electric small vehicle fleet by the<br />

end of the year and there is a clear<br />

push from the city council to have<br />

a better public transport system.<br />

Now that the city council has set<br />

its target, we are starting work to<br />

put a framework together to enable<br />

the city as a whole to move along<br />

this path, too, and play our part in<br />

the international goal to limit the<br />

impacts of climate change.<br />

Beachville Rd<br />

finally cleaned up<br />

• By Sarla Donovan<br />

THE UNSIGHTLY mess on<br />

the Beachville Rd esplanade<br />

is gone.<br />

Last week, <strong>Bay</strong> <strong>Harbour</strong><br />

News reported concerns from<br />

Redcliffs Residents Association<br />

secretary Pat<br />

McIntosh about “unsightly”<br />

landscaping<br />

next to the new $4.6<br />

million seawall.<br />

Dr McIntosh wrote<br />

to the city council on<br />

October 13 to complain<br />

about the overgrown<br />

and weed-ridden area,<br />

but hadn’t heard anything<br />

back.<br />

“What used to be a pleasant<br />

grassed area used for picnics<br />

and play is currently shin high<br />

in weeds with bare patches in<br />

between and is quite useless<br />

and very unsightly,” she said.<br />

Her letter was prompted by<br />

an email from the city council<br />

in June, when infrastructure<br />

rebuild liaison manager, Ross<br />

Herrett, said landscaping<br />

work would be rectified by<br />

the Stronger Christchurch<br />

Zoe Fidler<br />

Infrastructure Rebuild team<br />

in early spring.<br />

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

understands city council<br />

maintenance teams visited the<br />

area on Thursday and mowed<br />

the grass.<br />

Dr McIntosh said<br />

they still hadn’t done<br />

any remediation work<br />

on the bare patches of<br />

dirt, or replaced the<br />

picnic tables that were<br />

removed from the<br />

area during seawall<br />

construction and<br />

subsequently damaged<br />

beyond repair.<br />

However, the area did look<br />

tidier, she said.<br />

Nearby resident Zoe Fidler<br />

who featured in a photo of the<br />

overgrown grass last week,<br />

said she’d had a number of<br />

people let her know it had<br />

been cleaned up. “I’m very<br />

happy,” she said. “Great<br />

work.”<br />

The residents association<br />

will meet with the Coastal<br />

Pathway Group this week to<br />

discuss future landscaping<br />

along the esplanade.<br />

We said:<br />

Firefighters and residents<br />

are worried the Little River<br />

Fire Brigade won’t have<br />

enough water to fight blazes<br />

this summer<br />

You said:<br />

Jane Hoult – Our Little River<br />

Volunteer Fire Brigade provides<br />

a vital service in our wide and<br />

sometimes difficult to get to community.<br />

They should be given all<br />

the resources possible to enable<br />

them to do the jobs they train so<br />

hard for – saving lives, homes and<br />

our beautiful Banks Peninsula. No<br />

good if a doesn’t start, or if it can’t<br />

get up the hill and it runs out of<br />

water before the fire is put out.<br />

Basic needs of a fire service is to<br />

be effective if you ask me. Read<br />

the article, email the editor, complain<br />

– get behind our fire brigade<br />

before something tragic happens<br />

unnecessarily.<br />

Then Project Lyttelton want<br />

you to give them a call. The<br />

non-profit group is building<br />

towards opening its Library<br />

of Tools and Things early next<br />

year. It will be a collection of<br />

specialised equipment that library<br />

members can take home<br />

on loan.<br />

Members would pay an<br />

annual subscription to use the<br />

service.<br />

Trevor Best, of Governor’s<br />

<strong>Bay</strong>, is behind the project. He<br />

wants to see more men and<br />

women connect with their<br />

communities by offering a<br />

good selection of high quality<br />

tools, while helping to cut<br />

down on consumption.<br />

Project Lyttelton co-manager<br />

Lucette Hindin said it was hoping<br />

to have all the main items<br />

sewing machines.” She hopes<br />

that some will come directly<br />

from the community, while<br />

others may be donated by retail<br />

outlets, manufacturers, or be<br />

funded by “various bodies”.<br />

“We’re talking to the city<br />

council about locating the<br />

library at the Lyttelton Recreation<br />

Centre, where it would<br />

be operated by volunteers for<br />

four or so hours each week for<br />

issues and returns,” said Ms<br />

Hindin.<br />

So if you do have items you<br />

Tahu, Environment<br />

Canterbury,<br />

Christchurch City<br />

Council, and the<br />

Lyttelton Port<br />

Company signed a Memorandum of<br />

Understanding committing to work together<br />

to create an action plan for restoring the<br />

cultural and ecological health of Whakaraupō/<br />

Lyttelton <strong>Harbour</strong>, we wanted it to be a plan<br />

that all those who live in the area and use the<br />

harbour could see themselves contributing to.<br />

So in the past few weeks we have held a<br />

series of meetings to present the initial draft<br />

plan to key stakeholders in the area. We<br />

wanted to make sure we were on the right<br />

track and that the plan aligned with what the<br />

community expected of it.<br />

We were excited to hear the initial draft was<br />

easy to read and understand, and people<br />

appreciated the story that flowed through<br />

the plan.<br />

The Lyttelton Port Recovery Plan gave us the<br />

conceptual requirements to base the plan<br />

around mahinga kai and Ki Uta Ki Tai (from<br />

the mountains to the sea) whole of catchment<br />

management, and it has been important to<br />

stay true to these values.<br />

One way we have tried to do this is by placing<br />

a metaphorical korowai over the catchment,<br />

where the species weaved into the korowai<br />

are the kaitiaki (guardian) species of the<br />

health of our natural environment and our<br />

engagement and impact on the landscape.<br />

The plan is written using a series of pou - or<br />

guiding principles- which include:<br />

•“Change Making” – the idea that everyone<br />

can be a change-maker with the power to<br />

influence the future of Whakaraupō/Lyttelton<br />

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

•“Mō tātou a mo kā uri a muri ake nei” (for us<br />

and our children after us);<br />

•and “Collaboration” – the idea that<br />

change will come about with Whakaraupō<br />

communities working together to create real<br />

and sustainable change.<br />

This plan belongs to the community and we<br />

want you to journey with us as we turn it into<br />

a reality.<br />

Thank you to all those who made the time<br />

to attend these meetings and providing your<br />

thoughts and feedback.<br />

We received some great feedback from<br />

those who attended the initial meetings and<br />

our team spent last week incorporating that<br />

feedback into the draft plan.<br />

In the coming weeks, the plan will be available<br />

for public consultation on our website<br />

healthyharbour.org.nz.<br />

We will also have information hubs around<br />

the harbour with staff available to answer any<br />

questions you may have about how you as<br />

an individual or group can get involved in the<br />

plan an input into the health of Whakaraupō.<br />

So please keep an eye out for details and we<br />

look forward to hearing from you.<br />

Tanker replacement<br />

•From page 1<br />

Christchurch principal rural<br />

fire officer Darrin Woods said<br />

a purpose-built bespoke tanker<br />

had been requested from FENZ,<br />

which was likely to arrive<br />

between March and June next<br />

year.<br />

“It’s definitely a<br />

high priority. We need<br />

confirmation of capital<br />

expenditure budgets<br />

before we can give a<br />

time frame for arrival.<br />

It won’t be this summer,<br />

unfortunately, but will<br />

be before the end of our<br />

financial year on June<br />

30. It will be a bespoke rural<br />

appliance, which takes up to six<br />

months to build.”<br />

Mr Woods was “absolutely<br />

confident” the current tanker<br />

had the capability required,<br />

even though it was slower and<br />

only carried 3000-litres of water<br />

instead of the previous vehicle’s<br />

4000-litres.<br />

“It’s ex-military and one of the<br />

most capable off-road vehicles<br />

that we have. It’s been performing<br />

the function of a dedicated<br />

rural fire capability for as long<br />

as the city council has had it.”<br />

But Mr Irving said while he<br />

understood it would take time<br />

to build a new truck, it didn’t<br />

resolve the immediate situation.<br />

“It’s the delay factor – that’s<br />

Tori Peden<br />

the concern. Sometimes you can<br />

get to a small fire and put it out.<br />

That small fire can become large<br />

within 10 or 15 minutes and if<br />

you haven’t done the business it<br />

becomes a large fire very quickly.<br />

It’s about time factors. I’ve<br />

been fighting fires for 24 years. I<br />

know that you can whip<br />

in and put something<br />

out quickly that if left<br />

for another five or 10<br />

minutes can become a<br />

major headache.”<br />

“You go from a truck<br />

that could do 70 or<br />

80km/h up a hill compared<br />

to one that struggles<br />

to do 40km/h – and you<br />

have to empty the water out of<br />

it – you’re talking about a 20min<br />

difference. And again, that<br />

could be the difference between<br />

saving a house or not.”<br />

“I work for the community –<br />

I’m a community member and I<br />

see the extra risk that we’ve been<br />

put in, and I object.”<br />

Banks Peninsula Community<br />

Board member Tori Peden said<br />

it was “scary” to hear it would<br />

be a six-month wait for a new<br />

tanker, especially as a long, hot<br />

and dry summer was predicted.<br />

“People in the community are<br />

quite concerned and it’s not only<br />

coming from the community<br />

it’s coming from the brigade<br />

themselves.”<br />

Xmas campaign for kids<br />

THE LITTLE Ray of Giving campaign<br />

is back.<br />

The gift drive aims to put a smile on<br />

may need some extra cheer at this time<br />

Ray White Ferrymead partners with<br />

Sumner, Redcliffs and Mt Pleasant<br />

schools and the Christchurch City<br />

Mission to help disadvantaged children<br />

who may need a little extra light in their<br />

festive season.<br />

“This is the third year that we’ve run<br />

A Little Ray of Giving and we want <strong>2017</strong><br />

to be our biggest yet,” said operations<br />

manager Nancy Vincent Parr.<br />

“In our first year, we collected the<br />

most gifts of any Ray White branch in<br />

the country, which shows how much<br />

our community gets involved.”<br />

She said the aim was for 500 gifts this<br />

year.<br />

Those who wish to donate just need to<br />

inform the Ray White team whether the<br />

gift is for a boy or girl, and nominate an<br />

age group from babies to teenagers.<br />

“As much as it’s nice to donate your<br />

old gifts to friends or families, or the<br />

local charity shop, these are for a special<br />

day, so we politely ask for new gifts only.<br />

“All you need to do is wrap up your<br />

new present and drop it under the tree<br />

HAVE YOU ever wondered what<br />

ghosts and goblins eat?<br />

If so, the answer was there for<br />

all to see at Lyttelton on the night<br />

of Halloween when a constant<br />

stream of ghouls, ghosts, goblins<br />

and witches made their way to<br />

the Lyttelton Bakery.<br />

There they feasted upon<br />

Halloween-themed donuts and<br />

cupcakes in a cavern created<br />

especially for the night.<br />

The idea was the inspiration of<br />

Bree Scott from Glamour Cakes<br />

and Vicki McSherry from Vic’s<br />

Bakery.<br />

Both women had experienced<br />

cyberbulling at very extreme levels.<br />

Rather than let this get them<br />

down and impact on their mental<br />

health they decided to respond<br />

in a positive way by playing on<br />

their creativity to raise funds for<br />

charity.<br />

The idea for the Halloween<br />

fundraiser emerged from this.<br />

The pair decided to put their energy<br />

into staging a special event,<br />

which saw their acclaimed products<br />

given a special Halloweeninspired<br />

twist.<br />

Cakes and donuts were transformed<br />

into tasty themed treats<br />

to tempt all who were about on<br />

Halloween night. The event also<br />

provided an opportunity for local<br />

children to dress up, put on the<br />

face paint and live the fantasy.<br />

development in Church <strong>Bay</strong><br />

has forced a rethink on how<br />

it will look<br />

Kathie Smith – ‘Beauty is in<br />

the eye of the beholder.’ So too<br />

is how we view our lifestyle. Recently,<br />

Church <strong>Bay</strong> and Diamond<br />

<strong>Harbour</strong> have been described<br />

as sleepy and rural. These views<br />

were expressed in opposition to<br />

the proposed<br />

commercial<br />

development<br />

at Church <strong>Bay</strong>.<br />

When I bought<br />

a section here<br />

nearly 15 years<br />

ago I did not<br />

expect to be sleepy. I considered<br />

I had bought harbourside and<br />

urban in an area renowned for its<br />

many clubs and in an environment<br />

that motivates activity.<br />

Like many retirees, I am<br />

constantly busy and sociable. My<br />

section was in an undeveloped<br />

subdivision, indicating there<br />

would be change. Change is one<br />

of life’s guarantees – it keeps us<br />

alert, energised, motivated and<br />

growing. When I moved into my<br />

new home there were about six<br />

vehicle movements a day past<br />

my driveway. Now there are 100.<br />

Great – a lot of people sharing<br />

and enjoying this wonderful<br />

place. From conversations with<br />

other retirees and young families,<br />

we are looking to the future<br />

with additional services and<br />

choices.<br />

Green MP<br />

Eugenie Sage<br />

welcomes the<br />

challenges that<br />

come with her<br />

new ministerial<br />

portfolios<br />

I AM humbled and privileged<br />

to be the new minister of<br />

conservation, minister for land<br />

information, and associate<br />

minister for the environment.<br />

I’ve spent much of my life<br />

working to protect New<br />

Zealand’s native species, our<br />

special landscapes and our rivers,<br />

lakes and aquifers. I welcome the<br />

challenge.<br />

It was wonderful to be at<br />

Banks Peninsula’s Hinewai Reserve<br />

on a sparkling day on Sunday<br />

to celebrate Hinewai’s 30th<br />

anniversary and honour Maurice<br />

White. An accountant and business<br />

person with a keen interest<br />

in birdlife, Maurice’s vision and<br />

generosity led the Maurice White<br />

Trust to buy the original 109ha<br />

Hinewai block in 1987 and, four<br />

years later, the 870ha Otanerito<br />

Station with help from the nature<br />

heritage fund.<br />

Thirty years ago, neighbours<br />

and local farmers puzzled at legendary<br />

botanist Hugh Wilson’s<br />

plan to allow nature to heal itself<br />

and have scrubby, gorse-covered<br />

hills regenerate into native forest.<br />

With help and hard work by volunteers<br />

to get rid of the browsers<br />

(goats, wild sheep, possums)<br />

and in the absence of bulldozers,<br />

stock, and herbicides, those<br />

dreams have come true.<br />

The forest is regenerating<br />

throughout Otanerito Valley. In<br />

parts of Hinewai, native trees<br />

have completely smothered<br />

blocks of gorse once fire and<br />

stock were removed.<br />

Native wildlife is<br />

flourishing from songsters like<br />

korimako/bellbird and riroriro/<br />

grey warbler to fish like kokopu<br />

and eels, tree weta and a host<br />

of insects. Banks Peninsula’s<br />

hills were once clothed in rich<br />

forest before the fires of human<br />

settlement. Hinewai shows<br />

what is possible when people<br />

work together with purpose and<br />

vision.<br />

We need to do that all across<br />

New Zealand to improve the<br />

prospects for 3000 native plants<br />

and animals threatened with<br />

extinction, and to enable every<br />

Kiwi child to be able to experience<br />

wild nature close to home.<br />

I can hear tui in Auckland and<br />

ruru/morepork in Wellington<br />

but not in Christchurch because<br />

both species are extinct in the<br />

city. We can change that if we<br />

Local<br />

News<br />

Now<br />

New minister up for the challenge<br />

ANNIVERSARY: Banks Peninsula’s Hinewai Reserve celebrated its 30th anniversary on Sunday.<br />

Fire rages, homes at risk<br />

have a vision similar to that of<br />

Hugh and Maurice and people<br />

like Colin Meurk, who protected<br />

the now magnificent Travis<br />

swamp from diggers and subdivision.<br />

Many enjoy nature in the back<br />

country – in the mountains and<br />

headwaters of rivers like the<br />

Rakaia and Rangitata.<br />

We need more spaces for<br />

nature in Christchurch that are<br />

close to home, and that children<br />

can have easy access to for play.<br />

That’s why proposals for a forest<br />

sanctuary using some of the<br />

residential red zone land are<br />

exciting.<br />
