Flex and stretch for big yoga event
Sumner yoga teacher Jess Smith will lead a pre-run stretch at the South Island’s first Wanderlust global lifestyle event at
St Leonard’s Park, Sumner, on December 2. More than 1000 people are expected to take part in the 5km run/walk followed
by group outdoor yoga, guided meditation and a range of workshops. Ms Smith, who is originally from Santa Cruz, California,
said the run was aimed at people exercising together and getting endorphins going before dropping into the yoga. “That’s when
the body relaxes; and they’ll have food and music and workshops.” She’s thrilled the organisers chose Sumner. “It’s the bee’s
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
day everybody goes out there – flocks to the beach. It’s the Byron Bay of Christchurch.” She hopes a whole range of people will
come and give yoga a try. “Mums, dads, teenagers, the local neighbourhood come and just give it a go.”
Little River
fire tanker
won’t be
replaced
until at
least March
• By Sarla Donovan
LITTLE RIVER Fire Brigade’s
30-year-old fire tanker won’t be
replaced until after this summer
– leaving firefighters and residents
worried property could be put at
risk.
Bay Harbour News revealed last
week that when Fire and Emergency
New Zealand replaced the
New Zealand Fire Service on July
1, the city council took back Little
River’s almost new water tanker,
swapping it for a smaller, slower
vehicle.
Residents and Little River brigade
chief fire officer David Irving
are concerned the change would
limit the brigade’s capacity in an
emergency.
Birdlings Flat resident Barb
Gaeth has started a petition
in response to community concerns.
It was put up at a community
breakfast event on Sunday, where
it collected “quite a few” signatures,
and has since been placed
in the Little River library and the
craft store.

FROM
THE
EDITOR’S
DESK News......................3-5, 10-13
LITTLE RIVER residents and
their fire chief are starting to get
fairly agitated over the fact they
won’t get a new tanker until after
summer (see page 1).
Last week we revealed the city
council took back the brigade’s
new tanker and replaced it with
an older, slower tanker with less
water capacity.
Today we reveal the tanker
won’t be replaced until March at
least.
The wet winter, which has
prompted a lot of spring growth,
combined with a potentially hot
summer means we could be in
for a dangerous fire season.
So the people of Little River
and beyond who are serviced
by the fire brigade have every
reason to be worried.
A petition has been started
and Little River fire chief David
Irving continues to sound the
alarm.

Light phase overhaul likely
• By Sarla Donovan
ALL THE light phases at
the problematic St Andrews
Hill intersection could be
resequenced.
The troublespot was the focus
of public consultation earlier
this year, with the city council
presenting three options to try
and solve some of the problems.
Though more
than 600 submissions
were
received, none
of the three
options were
green-lighted.
Instead, the
Ruth Dyson
Linwood-Central-Heathcote
Community Board opted in July
to trial changing the Main Rd
light phasing.
But the trial never went ahead,
after city council staff decided
reprogramming the Main Rd
left arrow light for city-bound
traffic would create congestion.
“The delays that would
be incurred by vehicles on
Main Rd and Ferry Rd would
significantly increase queue
lengths in the peak hours. The
benefits to St Andrews Hill Rd
(users) were minor and did not
outweigh the dis-benefit to the
main traffic flows,” said city
council transport planning
and delivery manager Mike
Jacobson.
He said another option to
change the phasing sequence
was being considered and they
would inform the board about
it this month. It would affect all
phases of the lights at the Ferry
Rd/Main Rd/Bridle Path Rd
intersection.
But Heathcote Ward city
councillor Sara Templeton
said the original intent of the
board resolution to change the
phasing sequence of the light
was misunderstood, and staff
investigated a timing change
instead.
“I was really disappointed.
I’m hoping that the new
assessment will be quickly
done, so that we can go ahead
with the trial and improve
the movements and safety
of residents coming down St

Andrews Hill onto Bridle Path
Rd.” Port Hills MP Ruth Dyson
said she found the city council’s
response frustrating.
“They agreed that they would
trial changing the phasing of
the turning traffic signals at
very little cost with a view to
reducing the significant delays
caused to traffic coming off
the hill. For them to now say
that the benefits would be
outweighed by the negative
consequences is puzzling.”

LAND GIFTED TO MUSEUM
A vacant site in the heart of
Lyttelton could become home to
a multi-million dollar museum
as soon as 2020 after the city
council agreed to gift the land at
33-35 London St to the Lyttelton
Historical Museum Society. The
decision means the society can
move ahead with plans to build
a new museum, which it believes
will become a major tourist
attraction.
COASTAL GIVE WAY SIGN
A give way sign will be installed
on the coastal pathway where
it intersects with Scott Park’s
Main Rd entrance. The Linwood-
Central-Heathcote Community
Board approved the sign at its
meeting on Monday in response
to safety concerns. It means
walkers and cyclists will need
to stop for vehicles entering or
leaving the park.
BEACH SHOWER IN AKAROA
Akaroa should have a shower
at the beach for swimmers to

The board is waiting to hear back
from the city council on whether
a shower can be installed this
summer.

for the summer.
If you’re contemplating
heading to the seaside with

areas are all affected.
Dogs can pass through
the prohibited areas only if
they are on a short leash.
“It’s important to follow
the rules as enforcement

holiday period, so dog
owners can expect a fine
if they bring their dogs to
these spots,” city council
animal management

Part to play in climate change
The city
council is
making
headway in
its push to
reduce carbon
emissions,
writes
Heathcote
Ward city councillor Sara
Templeton
Last week the city council set
itself the target of becoming a net
carbon neutral organisation by
2030; a key part of our strategic
direction of climate change
leadership.
So, why is this important? Internationally,
cities account for 75
per cent of carbon emissions and
it is up to each city to do its part to
mitigate their impacts on the environment.
Christchurch is a low
lying, coastal city and is already
feeling the impacts of climate
change with increased extreme
weather events and sea level rise.
In the Bays area, our
communities are very aware
of these impacts, with coastal
inundation and erosion a hot
topic over the last few years. The
new Coastal Hazard Assessment
Report from Tonkin and Taylor
was released on Friday and a real
conversation now needs to be had
about how we are going to cope
with these impacts as a city.
As well as adapting to climate
change, however, it is in our best
interests to try and stop the effects
being as bad as they could be by
lowering our carbon footprint as
individuals and as a city.
The new Government has
expressed an intention to legislate
national targets for carbon neutrality
and this will involve some
major challenges and opportunities
for our economy.
While we are a small country,
we need to play our part in the
same way that larger countries
do. All of the smaller countries
(under one per cent of emissions)
put together make up 23 per cent
of global emissions, China is at 24
per cent and the United States 15
per cent.
If we abdicate our responsibility,
we would have no moral ground
to ask others to act and let
down future generations of New
Zealanders.
While we have only just set the
target, we are already making
progress to lower our emissions
as a city council. We have just
boosted the transition to LED
street lights, with 7000 going in
over the next year.
The installation is cost-neutral,
but will save ratepayers significant
money in maintenance and
electricity costs over the next
decade. We will also have an
electric small vehicle fleet by the
end of the year and there is a clear
push from the city council to have
a better public transport system.
Now that the city council has set
its target, we are starting work to
put a framework together to enable
the city as a whole to move along
this path, too, and play our part in
the international goal to limit the
impacts of climate change.
Beachville Rd
finally cleaned up
• By Sarla Donovan
THE UNSIGHTLY mess on
the Beachville Rd esplanade
is gone.
Last week, Bay Harbour
News reported concerns from
Redcliffs Residents Association
secretary Pat
McIntosh about “unsightly”
landscaping
next to the new $4.6
million seawall.
Dr McIntosh wrote
to the city council on
October 13 to complain
about the overgrown
and weed-ridden area,
but hadn’t heard anything
back.
“What used to be a pleasant
grassed area used for picnics
and play is currently shin high
in weeds with bare patches in
between and is quite useless
and very unsightly,” she said.
Her letter was prompted by
an email from the city council
in June, when infrastructure
rebuild liaison manager, Ross
Herrett, said landscaping
work would be rectified by
the Stronger Christchurch
Zoe Fidler
Infrastructure Rebuild team
in early spring.
Bay Harbour News now
understands city council
maintenance teams visited the
area on Thursday and mowed
the grass.
Dr McIntosh said
they still hadn’t done
any remediation work
on the bare patches of
dirt, or replaced the
picnic tables that were
removed from the
area during seawall
construction and
subsequently damaged
beyond repair.
However, the area did look
tidier, she said.
Nearby resident Zoe Fidler
who featured in a photo of the
overgrown grass last week,
said she’d had a number of
people let her know it had
been cleaned up. “I’m very
happy,” she said. “Great
work.”
The residents association
will meet with the Coastal
Pathway Group this week to
discuss future landscaping
along the esplanade.
We said:
Firefighters and residents
are worried the Little River
Fire Brigade won’t have
enough water to fight blazes
this summer
You said:
Jane Hoult – Our Little River
Volunteer Fire Brigade provides
a vital service in our wide and
sometimes difficult to get to community.
They should be given all
the resources possible to enable
them to do the jobs they train so
hard for – saving lives, homes and
our beautiful Banks Peninsula. No
good if a doesn’t start, or if it can’t
get up the hill and it runs out of
water before the fire is put out.
Basic needs of a fire service is to
be effective if you ask me. Read
the article, email the editor, complain
– get behind our fire brigade
before something tragic happens
unnecessarily.

Library needs you to fix it up with spare tools
Do you have tools you don’t
use any more? An old hammer,
a spanner, screwdriver or saw?
Then Project Lyttelton want
you to give them a call. The
non-profit group is building
towards opening its Library
of Tools and Things early next
year. It will be a collection of
specialised equipment that library
members can take home
on loan.
Members would pay an
annual subscription to use the
service.
Trevor Best, of Governor’s
Bay, is behind the project. He
wants to see more men and
women connect with their
communities by offering a
good selection of high quality
tools, while helping to cut
down on consumption.
Project Lyttelton co-manager
Lucette Hindin said it was hoping
to have all the main items

people use frequently. “Garden
tools, drills, saws, bike tools.
Perhaps also camping gear and
sewing machines.” She hopes
that some will come directly
from the community, while
others may be donated by retail
outlets, manufacturers, or be
funded by “various bodies”.
“We’re talking to the city
council about locating the
library at the Lyttelton Recreation
Centre, where it would
be operated by volunteers for
four or so hours each week for
issues and returns,” said Ms
Hindin.
So if you do have items you
don’t use – a sewing machine
or your granddad’s old drill
– or you have connections

Future-proofing
Whakaraupo/Lyttelton Harbour
Photo: Kelvin McMillan
This plan belongs to the community and we want
“you to journey with us as we turn it into a reality
“
Yvette Couch-Lewis
Kia ora koutou katoa.
When Te Hapū o
Ngāti Wheke, Te
Rūnanga o Ngāi
Tahu, Environment
Canterbury,
Christchurch City
Council, and the
Lyttelton Port
Company signed a Memorandum of
Understanding committing to work together
to create an action plan for restoring the
cultural and ecological health of Whakaraupō/
Lyttelton Harbour, we wanted it to be a plan
that all those who live in the area and use the
harbour could see themselves contributing to.
So in the past few weeks we have held a
series of meetings to present the initial draft
plan to key stakeholders in the area. We
wanted to make sure we were on the right
track and that the plan aligned with what the
community expected of it.
We were excited to hear the initial draft was
easy to read and understand, and people
appreciated the story that flowed through
the plan.
The Lyttelton Port Recovery Plan gave us the
conceptual requirements to base the plan
around mahinga kai and Ki Uta Ki Tai (from
the mountains to the sea) whole of catchment
management, and it has been important to
stay true to these values.
One way we have tried to do this is by placing
a metaphorical korowai over the catchment,
where the species weaved into the korowai
are the kaitiaki (guardian) species of the
health of our natural environment and our
engagement and impact on the landscape.
The plan is written using a series of pou - or
guiding principles- which include:
•“Change Making” – the idea that everyone
can be a change-maker with the power to
influence the future of Whakaraupō/Lyttelton
Harbour;
•“Mō tātou a mo kā uri a muri ake nei” (for us
and our children after us);
•and “Collaboration” – the idea that
change will come about with Whakaraupō
communities working together to create real
and sustainable change.
This plan belongs to the community and we
want you to journey with us as we turn it into
a reality.
Thank you to all those who made the time
to attend these meetings and providing your
thoughts and feedback.
We received some great feedback from
those who attended the initial meetings and
our team spent last week incorporating that
feedback into the draft plan.
In the coming weeks, the plan will be available
for public consultation on our website
healthyharbour.org.nz.
We will also have information hubs around
the harbour with staff available to answer any
questions you may have about how you as
an individual or group can get involved in the
plan an input into the health of Whakaraupō.
So please keep an eye out for details and we
look forward to hearing from you.
Yvette Couch-Lewis is the Chair of the
Whakaraupō/Lyttelton Harbour Catchment
Management Plan Governance Group.

Tanker replacement
•From page 1
Christchurch principal rural
fire officer Darrin Woods said
a purpose-built bespoke tanker
had been requested from FENZ,
which was likely to arrive
between March and June next
year.
“It’s definitely a
high priority. We need
confirmation of capital
expenditure budgets
before we can give a
time frame for arrival.
It won’t be this summer,
unfortunately, but will
be before the end of our
financial year on June
30. It will be a bespoke rural
appliance, which takes up to six
months to build.”
Mr Woods was “absolutely
confident” the current tanker
had the capability required,
even though it was slower and
only carried 3000-litres of water
instead of the previous vehicle’s
4000-litres.
“It’s ex-military and one of the
most capable off-road vehicles
that we have. It’s been performing
the function of a dedicated
rural fire capability for as long
as the city council has had it.”
But Mr Irving said while he
understood it would take time
to build a new truck, it didn’t
resolve the immediate situation.
“It’s the delay factor – that’s
Tori Peden
the concern. Sometimes you can
get to a small fire and put it out.
That small fire can become large
within 10 or 15 minutes and if
you haven’t done the business it
becomes a large fire very quickly.
It’s about time factors. I’ve
been fighting fires for 24 years. I
know that you can whip
in and put something
out quickly that if left
for another five or 10
minutes can become a
major headache.”
“You go from a truck
that could do 70 or
80km/h up a hill compared
to one that struggles
to do 40km/h – and you
have to empty the water out of
it – you’re talking about a 20min
difference. And again, that
could be the difference between
saving a house or not.”
“I work for the community –
I’m a community member and I
see the extra risk that we’ve been
put in, and I object.”
Banks Peninsula Community
Board member Tori Peden said
it was “scary” to hear it would
be a six-month wait for a new
tanker, especially as a long, hot
and dry summer was predicted.
“People in the community are
quite concerned and it’s not only
coming from the community
it’s coming from the brigade
themselves.”

Xmas campaign for kids
THE LITTLE Ray of Giving campaign
is back.
The gift drive aims to put a smile on
the faces of children and families who
may need some extra cheer at this time
of year.
Ray White Ferrymead partners with
Sumner, Redcliffs and Mt Pleasant
schools and the Christchurch City
Mission to help disadvantaged children
who may need a little extra light in their
festive season.
“This is the third year that we’ve run
A Little Ray of Giving and we want 2017
to be our biggest yet,” said operations
manager Nancy Vincent Parr.
“In our first year, we collected the
most gifts of any Ray White branch in
the country, which shows how much
our community gets involved.”
She said the aim was for 500 gifts this
year.
Those who wish to donate just need to
inform the Ray White team whether the
gift is for a boy or girl, and nominate an
age group from babies to teenagers.
“As much as it’s nice to donate your
old gifts to friends or families, or the
local charity shop, these are for a special
day, so we politely ask for new gifts only.
“All you need to do is wrap up your
new present and drop it under the tree
into our office reception,” Ms Vincent-
Parr said.

HAVE YOU ever wondered what
ghosts and goblins eat?
If so, the answer was there for
all to see at Lyttelton on the night
of Halloween when a constant
stream of ghouls, ghosts, goblins
and witches made their way to
the Lyttelton Bakery.
There they feasted upon
Halloween-themed donuts and
cupcakes in a cavern created
especially for the night.
The idea was the inspiration of
Bree Scott from Glamour Cakes
and Vicki McSherry from Vic’s
Bakery.
Both women had experienced
cyberbulling at very extreme levels.
Rather than let this get them
down and impact on their mental
health they decided to respond
in a positive way by playing on
their creativity to raise funds for
charity.
The idea for the Halloween
fundraiser emerged from this.
The pair decided to put their energy
into staging a special event,
which saw their acclaimed products
given a special Halloweeninspired
twist.
Cakes and donuts were transformed
into tasty themed treats
to tempt all who were about on
Halloween night. The event also
provided an opportunity for local
children to dress up, put on the
face paint and live the fantasy.

approximately 25% of arrivals (landings) into Christchurch.
The trial will gather data to be used in the progressive upgrade from
procedures based on radars to a network guided by satellites.
The new navigation procedures are more accurate and allow for shorter,
more direct routes, as well as more efficient take-offs and landings.
Collectively, they reduce fuel burn, airport and airspace congestion, aircraft

Community concern over
a proposed commercial
development in Church Bay
has forced a rethink on how
it will look
Kathie Smith – ‘Beauty is in
the eye of the beholder.’ So too
is how we view our lifestyle. Recently,
Church Bay and Diamond
Harbour have been described
as sleepy and rural. These views
were expressed in opposition to
the proposed
commercial
development
at Church Bay.
When I bought
a section here
nearly 15 years
ago I did not
expect to be sleepy. I considered
I had bought harbourside and
urban in an area renowned for its
many clubs and in an environment
that motivates activity.
Like many retirees, I am
constantly busy and sociable. My
section was in an undeveloped
subdivision, indicating there
would be change. Change is one
of life’s guarantees – it keeps us
alert, energised, motivated and
growing. When I moved into my
new home there were about six
vehicle movements a day past
my driveway. Now there are 100.
Great – a lot of people sharing
and enjoying this wonderful
place. From conversations with
other retirees and young families,
we are looking to the future
with additional services and
choices.

Eugenie Sage
welcomes the
challenges that
come with her
new ministerial
portfolios
I AM humbled and privileged
to be the new minister of
conservation, minister for land
information, and associate
minister for the environment.
I’ve spent much of my life
working to protect New
Zealand’s native species, our
special landscapes and our rivers,
lakes and aquifers. I welcome the
challenge.
It was wonderful to be at
Banks Peninsula’s Hinewai Reserve
on a sparkling day on Sunday
to celebrate Hinewai’s 30th
anniversary and honour Maurice
White. An accountant and business
person with a keen interest
in birdlife, Maurice’s vision and
generosity led the Maurice White
Trust to buy the original 109ha
Hinewai block in 1987 and, four
years later, the 870ha Otanerito
Station with help from the nature
heritage fund.
Thirty years ago, neighbours
and local farmers puzzled at legendary
botanist Hugh Wilson’s
plan to allow nature to heal itself
and have scrubby, gorse-covered
hills regenerate into native forest.
With help and hard work by volunteers
to get rid of the browsers
(goats, wild sheep, possums)
and in the absence of bulldozers,
stock, and herbicides, those
dreams have come true.
The forest is regenerating
throughout Otanerito Valley. In
parts of Hinewai, native trees
have completely smothered
blocks of gorse once fire and
stock were removed.
Native wildlife is
flourishing from songsters like
korimako/bellbird and riroriro/
grey warbler to fish like kokopu
and eels, tree weta and a host
of insects. Banks Peninsula’s
hills were once clothed in rich
forest before the fires of human
settlement. Hinewai shows
what is possible when people
work together with purpose and
vision.
We need to do that all across
New Zealand to improve the
prospects for 3000 native plants
and animals threatened with
extinction, and to enable every
Kiwi child to be able to experience
wild nature close to home.
I can hear tui in Auckland and
