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 />
won’t be<br />

until at<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 />
BEACH SHOWER IN AKAROA<br />
Akaroa should have a shower<br />

The board is waiting to hear back<br />

If you’re contemplating<br />

they are on a short leash.<br />
“It’s important to follow<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 />

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 />

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 />

approximately 25% of arrivals (landings) into Christchurch.<br />
The trial will gather data to be used in the progressive upgrade from<br />
procedures based on radars to a network guided by satellites.<br />
The new navigation procedures are more accurate and allow for shorter,<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 />

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 />
