Dalziel contacts BP

Compromise

needed

over new

Edgeware

premises

• By Gabrielle Stuart

MAYOR LIANNE Dalziel has

waded into the battle between

the expanded BP Edgeware and

its neighbours.

She has phoned BP executives

in Auckland asking them to

replace the trees they removed

along the boundary with neighbours,

which

would hide the

20m wall of

the expanded

shop.

The neighbours

spent

more than six

Lianne Dalziel

months trying

to fight the expansion

of the

BP, but the plan was approved

at a resource consent hearing

heard by commissioner David

Mountfort.

In his decision, he said the

effect on neighbours would

be “less than minor . . . quite

benign.”

House

Hearing

Residents are now furious at

Mr Mountfort’s belief the effect

would be minor.

A hearing was required as

the service station expansion

breached resource consent rules

by expanding into an area zoned

residential.

The city council had supported

the expansion of the service station.

BP has built its new shop along

the fence of Cornwall St resident

Kazu Kano, where there was

once a row of established trees.

His view now is of a 20m long,

almost 5m high white wall just

behind the boundary fence,

Mr Kano asked BP to repaint

the wall to reduce the glare, and

to replace the plants along the

boundary.

But BP refused.

Local city councillor Pauline

Cotter and city council staff said

last month they could do nothing

about it.

But after articles were published

in the Nor’West News and The

Star, Ms Dalziel has stepped in.

She asked them to reconsider

asked them to repaint the wall.

Ms Dalziel said yesterday BP

would be working towards a

compromise with the neighbours

over the issue.

Mr Kano said the fact Ms

Dalziel had stepped in was good

news for the residents.

“It is very good news for us. I

much appreciate support from

neighbours and Mayor Lianne

Dalziel’s involvement,” he said.

Nor West News also emailed

photos of the new BP to the Mr

Mountfort, and asked if he still

believed the effects on neighbours

were “less than minor

. . . quite benign”.

He replied: “I will never comment

to the media on a decision

I’ve issued.”

Then asked, if he would speak

to the affected residents about his

decision, he said: “Sorry no comments

at all to anyone.”

should have stepped in?

Trust eyes bigger premises

• By Bridget Rutherford

A TRUST that helps get people

into jobs, provides a meeting

space and supports the Shirley

community could get a new

home.

Shirley Community Trust has

been operating out of a oneroom

building in MacFarlane

Park next to the playcentre for

17 years.

But with 230 volunteers

running more than 20

programmes and events and a

cafe, the trust needs an extra

facility.

It and the Papanui-Innes

Community Board are looking

into whether they

could use the

portable facility

currently housing

the St Albans

Community Centre

Graeme

Mitchell

once the new one is

rebuilt next year.

The Shirley

Community

Trust runs a community cafe

on Friday mornings during

school terms, and houses

foot-care clinics, after school

programmes, numeracy and

literary courses, a fruit and vege

co-op and provides a meeting

space.

TOO SMALL: Shirley Community Trust has been run out of

a small building at MacFarlane Park for 17 years, but it needs

more space.

It also runs a programme

to teach people how to make

barista coffee, so it will increase

their chances of getting a job in

2011 earthquake,

stretched.”

“That shoebox is all we have

to run over 20 programmes and

events.”

He said they used to utilise

community halls and churches

in the area, however, they were

damaged in the February 2011

earthquake.

“There are so many things

we can’t offer yet because we

just don’t have the space,” he

said.

“It would be a sign to say that

people care about Shirley.”

City councillor Pauline Cotter

said Lions donated the portable

building to Christchurch

following the February 2011

earthquake.

She said the community board

and city council staff were seeing

whether the association would

like to gift it to the city council,

so it could be used elsewhere.

“The area in Shirley is an area

of high needs.”

The portable building has a

large meeting room, two offices,

a kitchen and toilets.

Land sought

for new

centre

• By Bridget Rutherford

DISCUSSIONS ARE underway

on whether a piece of land next

to St Albans Community Centre

could be bought to provide green

space for the new centre once it

has been rebuilt.

City councillor Mike Davidson

said the city council had spoken

with the owners of the property at

130 Caledonian Rd to see whether

it could buy the section.

However, he said he could not

release any details because it was

“commercially sensitive.”

“It’s not council-owned and we

need to see if it’s going to be able

to be purchased.”

The property is next door to the

Caledonian Rd side of the community

centre site.

Plans to rebuild the centre have

been approved, with construction

to begin in the first half of next

year.

Mr Davidson said the plans

took up most of the current site,

and once car parking was included,

there would be little room

for green space.

“The board believes that piece of

land would be quite beneficial for

the community centre.”

History of Papanui

Stopping the firebugs

Fire Risk Management

Officer Mark Thomas writes

about people lighting fires

with no regard for the

consequences

Without going into details just

in case it encourages those that

think it’s cool or funny to light

fires, there was a skip set alight

this week at one of the city’s

newer attractions. The potential

was quite serious in a town where

re-building our heritage has been

a six-year journey that, so far, has

no end in sight.

The real message I want to

convey is that there are people in

our midst who will do this sort

of thing without regard for the

consequences and, in some cases,

will be well aware of the consequences

and hoping they occur.

Mostly they will take the easy

way. So things like skips and even

rubbish bins that are placed close

to a building with easy access in

the middle of the night are an

open invitation.

It’s not so difficult to overcome

this by locking compounds or

even merely by placing the skip

as far from your building as possible.

The heartache, the clean-up

and the rebuilding are all things

we’ve been through. We don’t

need it again.

Note to travellers: Most New

Zealand backpackers are protected

by smoke alarms that ring

right through the building to

get everybody out. So lighting

incense in your room is not recommended.

Particularly just on

midnight when most are asleep.

As happened in New Brighton

last Sunday.

Murray Williams explains

the background behind his

new book Timber Town to

City Suburb – An Illustrated

History of Papanui, which

he co-wrote with Christine

Grant and David O’Malley

This book is the first to

consider the general history of

Papanui. It references Maori use

of the Papanui bush as a source

of food (native birds) and then

explores the area’s very earliest

days of European settlement as a

timber workers’ town.

Later development as a centre

for small farming and horticulture

is followed in the context of

its transition over the decades

to the thriving Christchurch

suburb we know today.

Early communication between

Christchurch and Papanui

was difficult and expensive,

as the only access was the

swampy track termed Papanui

Rd.

Later in the 19th century, the

development of railway and

tram links tightened the bonds

between the city and the village

that developed around the conjunction

of the North, Papanui

and Harewood Rds.

The history of Papanui

architecture recalls the now

vanished public buildings,

such as the Papanui Memorial

Hall and the Waimairi

Council Chambers, as well as

highlighting the development

of domestic design, especially

the bay villas of the early 20th

century and the arrival of

the famous Californian and

European bungalows.

Luckily, there is still some

evidence of the latter styles, although

the character of Papanui

is changing rapidly and this

process is documented.

Formal education in Papanui

is reviewed starting with the

denominational schools of the

1850s and 1860s and then the

effect of central Government

involvement and the change in

the nature of school buildings

over a century and a half are also

considered.

Papanui’s first church, St Paul’s

Anglican (and its graveyard),

has since been complemented

by a wide range of alternative

denominational options.

This development is explained

along with an analysis of the

evolution of the varying styles of

church design that have added to

the character of the area.

Papanui is well-served with

a range of parks and other recreational

areas and the development

of these is explained and

OLD AND NEW: Papanui

District School (above), 1889

and Paparoa Street Primary

School, 1959. PHOTOS:

PAPANUI PRIMARY SCHOOL

AND THE WILLIAMS FAMILY

COLLECTION

illustrated.

The effect of the recent earthquakes

is also examined, as is the

development of Northlands Mall

as the new focus of the suburb.

A MASTER plan will be made

for The Groynes and nearby

Roto Kohatu Reserve to decide

how they will be used and

managed in the future.

It comes as there is an

increase of people using the

reserves due to the growing

population in the north of the

city.

The city council is asking for

ideas on what people would like

to see in those reserves.

It says it needed to develop a

master plan to consider “how

this reserve land is to be used

now and in the future.”

The master plan would

consider whether recreational

activities were in the best areas,

and if any layout changes

needed to be made.

PRESERVATION:

The city council

will make a

master plan

from community

feedback

about how The

Groynes will be

utilised in the

future.

Plan to manage reserves

It would also make sure the

environment was protected,

and the plan would be best for

all the users of the reserves.

The city council says the important

components of the plan

would be the track linkages

between the two reserves, and

the Waimairi Track to Darroch

Reserve.

Both reserves are widely used

by people walking, picnicking,

as well as for group activities

and competitions.

Public consultation on the

city council’s website will close

on December 12.

All the comments received

will be used to prepare a draft

master plan.

Once the draft is developed

it would go out for more community

consultation in the first

half of next year.

Fundraiser earns $130,000 for Starship’s

STARSHIP’S national air

ambulance service has been

given over $130,000 after a

fundraiser tea party held at

Mona Vale.

It was the second year the

Christchurch Diamonds and

Stars Tea Party has taken place,

an event organised by the

Friends of Starship.

A marquee was set up on the

Iris Lawn and 240 guests attended

on November 27.

Silent and live auctions were

held, with items such as Bruce

Springsteen tickets, a return trip

to Honolulu for two plus five

nights of accommodation, and

swimming lessons up for grabs.

Phil McGoldrick was the auctioneer,

while Jenny Burtt Florist

owner Dale Brown donated the

orchid centrepieces on the tables

that were later auctioned off.

The air ambulance service

flies medical experts to children

in life-threatening emergencies

around the country, and they

treat the children in the aircraft

on the way to Starship.

Sam and Connor Knowles and

Vanessa Pardoe were the guest

GUESTS OF HONOUR: Guest family, Sam and Connor Knowles,

family at the event, who know all

too well the importance of the

service.

Six-year-old Connor was hit by

a car in May and was flown in the

air ambulance to Starship with a

broken pelvis, a brain bleed and

the ligaments holding his head

onto his back bone were torn.

He was in a coma for 10 days

and spent the next two weeks at

Starship.

The tea party was hosted by

Friends of Starship co-chairwomen

Charlotte Smulders and

Gina Satterthwaite, while radio

and television personality Mike

Puru was the MC.

Mrs Smulders said the money

raised was crucial for the service.

“It’s an essential service to fly

our sick and injured children

from the South Island, receiving

critical and world class care as

they fly. The care on board can

make the difference between life

and death.”

Last year, 432 children were

admitted to Starship from the

South Island – more than one

each day.

The Starship Foundation raises

$1.5 million each year to fund

the air ambulance.

Moet & Chandon provided

the champagne for the tea party,

while CoLab, Clive Barrington

Construction, Continental and

EY were the event sponsors.

Get ready for Chch’s iconic fun run

THOUSANDS OF Cantabrians from

all walks of life are starting their

preparations for The Star City2Surf

with Mike Pero on Sunday, March 19.

Entries are now open for the 43rd

running of the event.

In the past, the 14km event (starting

at Centennial Park) has been

seen as for runners only, but with

the introduction of the very popular

Sport Canterbury 6km event (starting

at Hansen Park), this fun run is really

about movement, whether it be running,

jogging or walking.

Both events finish at Ferrymead

playing fields, which will be full of

family entertainment and prizes. The

fun run is also free to participants

under 10-years-old.

Next year’s The Star City2Surf with

Mike Pero is proudly supporting

Aviva family services.

Looking to inspire others to put

on the running shoes and get to the

finish line are the Diaz family.

The family began its journey to a

healthy lifestyle through a Facebook

page Hungry4Hauora. It highlights

the family’s journey of ups and downs

on the way to a healthy lifestyle.

Normally very camera shy, Rudolph

and wife Telena want to inspire others,

especially the Maori and Pacific

community.

After just two months of regular

exercise and nutritious eating, Mr

Diaz says he has already noticed a difference

in his energy levels and skin

health.

Working as a health and well-being

adviser at He Waka Tapu, Mr Diaz

is urging others who are looking to

lose weight and live a healthy lifestyle,

to use The Star City2Surf with Mike

Pero as a vehicle for change.

He Waka Tapu had 600 participants

in the 2016 event and is aiming to

reach 1000 participants in 2017.

The family has already set about

getting active, regularly attending

training circuits with the Hale Compound

Conditioning organisation.

“A big part of the fitness group we

are in is to set goals throughout the

year. City2Surf is the main goal for a

lot of people in our group,” Mr Diaz

said.

Getting fit for the 6km or 14km

event will be just the start for the

family who are looking to get to their

goal weights by next October. Mr

Diaz is hoping to get from 140kg,

which he weighed two months ago,

down to 95kg.

ACTIVE: Rudolph and Telena Diaz are on a

journey to a healthy lifestyle, hoping to promote

nutrition and exercise to their two-year-old

daughter, Te Hiere Oromai, and others.

SPORTS

LEGENDARY BUILD UP: Being clean bowled around your legs isn’t the best

feeling in the world. However, if it’s at the hands of Richie McCaw (batting

above), the blow may be softened somewhat. Christchurch Boys’ High School

first XI captain Ben Donkers knows that feeling after being bowled around his

legs by McCaw during a match against The Willows Cricket Club. Batting first,

CBHS scored 219 before restricting The Willows to 163, winning by 56 runs.

CBHS used the game as a build-up to the Secondary School Boys’ First XI Cup

finals, which are currently taking place in Lincoln this week. CBHS qualified

for the top-six national tournament by defeating St Andrew’s College in the

Canterbury regional final last month and are going for their fourth title.

Student athletes finish on

podium at national champs

THERE WERE a number

of success stories for

north-west athletes

on the weekend at the

NZ Secondary Schools

Track, Field and Road

Race Championships in

Auckland.

One of the highlights

from the national event

was a local podium finish

in the girls’ 1500m senior

final. Ari Graham from

St Andrew’s College took

out the race in a winning

time of 4m 39.17s, with

Burnside High School’s

Charlotte Blair and St

Andrew’s College’s Harriet

Bush second and third

respectively.

St Bede’s College student

Nick Moulai shattered a

nine-year-old national

record when he won the

boys’ 3000m senior final in

a record time of 8m 16.77s.

The 18-year-old took 5.18s

off Dallas Bowden’s 2007

mark set in Wellington.

Just 24 hours later, Moulai

went on to claim his second

gold of the championships,

winning the 800m

senior boys’ title in a time

of 1m 54.43s.

There was also success

for fellow St Bede’s student

RECORD BREAKER:

Nick Moulai runs for the

line in the 800m final 24

hours after breaking a

nine-year-old record in

the 3000m.

Tom Gill. He survived

touching the penultimate

hurdle and a recent shoulder

injury to take a narrow

and dramatic win in the

final of the senior boys’

110m hurdles final in a

time of 14.80s.

The girls’ junior high

jump featured a Christchurch

one-two. Maddie

Wilson from St Margaret’s

College won the title with

a jump of 1.64m, with

Anastasia Naylor from

Christchurch Girls’ High

School finishing in second

just three centimetres

under.

are beloved pets. These furry

friends have all been trained

and tested for health, safety and

temperament. Library staff and

a dog handler will be present

at all times to help facilitate

the sessions. Sessions are 15

minutes long. Bookings are

essential, so phone 941 7923 to
