Apartment plan fizzles 

• By Andrew King 

PLANS TO build a $20 million 

waterfront apartment complex in 

New Brighton have fizzled. 

New Brighton Business and 

Land Owners Association 

spokesman Paul Lonsdale said 

market research had indicated 

apartments are not desirable in 

the area at the moment. 

The Beach on Brighton project 

had been tipped as a turning 

point for the suburb. It promised 

Powering 

away to 

a solid 

finish 

40 apartments from studio to 

three-bedroom size, plus a gym, 

cafe and private garden. 

The project gained resource 

consent in 2015 but the developers 

have been unable to get 

would-be buyers to sign up and 

pay deposits. 

The canning of the project 

comes as Development Christchurch 

Ltd, the city councilowned 

entity charged with 

rejuvenating New Brighton, 

presented a report to the city 

council last Thursday. 

The report outlines what 

potential sites would need to be 

purchased to kick-start projects 

for New Brighton. 

The confidential report was 

presented to city councillors 

behind closed doors. 

New Brighton’s commercial 

core covers 5ha between Marine 

Pde, Hawke St, Shaw Ave, Union 

St and Beresford St. 

In December the city council approved 

$19 million for an upgrade 

to the Whale Pool Playground and 

New Brighton Surf Life Saving 

Club and to build hot salt water 

pools – one of four key projects. 

There are also plans to implement 

the New Brighton Centre 

Master Plan, the North Beach 

promenade and working with 

the community on quick initiatives 

to encourage rejuvenation. 

The promenade is currently in 

its draft stage, Coastal-Burwood 

Community Board chairwoman 

Kim Money said. 

DCL chief executive Rob Hall 

said there will be a series of 

briefings over the next two weeks 

with the city council about the 

strategy. 

“Then funding will be resolved 

in the annual plan, and that will 

go out for public consultation,” 

he said. 

He said the reason for secrecy 

is so it doesn’t compromise the 

commercial position of those 

involved in the negotiations.

WELL BLOW me over with a 

feather. 

New Brighton won’t be getting 

its planned $20 million apartment 

complex. 

It was an ambitious project in 

the first place that unfortunately 

had little chance of getting off the 

ground. 

We’ve seen a lot of grandiose 

plans for Brighton but they are a 

long way off. 

We reveal on the front page today 

Development Christchurch Ltd 

has decided on potential sites that 

need to be purchased to build on. 

The city council has approved 

$19 million for an upgrade to the 

Whale Pool Playground and New 

Brighton Surf Life Saving Club and 

to build hot saltwater pools – but 

they will take a long time. 

Let’s hope the new business and 

landowners association man, former 

city councillor Paul Lonsdale 

can fight the good fight.

Stories from past sought to shape future 

• By Gabrielle Stuart 

THE AGENCY which will 

decide the future of the red zone 

is hunting for stories from its 

past. 

Regenerate Christchurch today 

launched a new “community 

research” tool which allows people 

to publicly share comments, 

stories, videos or pictures about 

the red zone. 

They will be used to shape 

plans for the land, which covers 

about 535ha along the Avon 

River. 

Residential red zone general 

manager Rob Kerr said 

the things people shared would 

genuinely make a difference. 

“The more we know and 

understand about the land and 

the stories and what it means to 

us, the more we can understand 

what is the best way to use the 

land,” he said. 

They are looking for anything 

from stories from former red 

zone residents, to research on the 

red zone. 

It would become a reference 

point for designers, Mr Kerr said. 

“With creative designers, one 

of the things it’s really important 

to do is almost literally pour information 

and ideas and stories 

into their heads, and then they 

find a creative expression for 

those,” he said. 

The red zone land where 

Regenerate Christchurch 

has decision-making 

power. 

IMAGE: REGENERATE 

CHRISTCHURCH 

Regenerate Christchurch 

was sent up as a Crown and 

city council joint agency with a 

five-year lifespan, tasked with 

driving regeneration in the red 

zone, the central city and New 

Brighton. 

Almost a year after it was 

established, it has just finished 

consulting the public on the 

scope of its red zone work, which 

covers things such as the area 

covered and how people will be 

involved. 

About 100 people made 

submissions during the consultation, 

which closed on Tuesday. 

Mr Kerr acknowledged people 

in Canterbury had already been 

through many consultation 

processes since the earthquakes, 

and being involved took a lot of 

effort. 

He said he had spent the last 

year meeting regularly with 

community groups, and said one 

of the questions he was most often 

asked was how people could 

be involved in the process.

Veterinary practice 

Miracles do happen…. 

Misty is a 14 year old Rough Coated 

Collie ( lassie dog) lovingly owned by 

my parents. She’s never been a hugely 

energetic dog but has the gentlest, 

sweetest nature. She has had the odd 

health issue and is currently taking 

ongoing medication for arthritis of 

multiple joints. She’s not a complainer 

though and will still slowly walk around 

my parents farm, her favourite pastime 

being flushing out rabbits and doing 

cattle work with my dad. Shes always 

enjoyed a visit from Lola. 

Very sadly late last year, Misty was 

accidentally run over. My devastated 

parents flew to the clinic where Steve 

and our nurses immediately took 

charge. Luckily they live very close. She 

was remarkably alive and seemed in 

minimal shock, not like my poor mum 

and dad. Our nurses were fabulous – it 

was like triage in a hospital ER room. 

Whilst she was checked over for shock, 

bleeding and fractures, the nurses were 

placing an IV line in her, were pulling 

bloods to check her internal organs and 

organizing shock and pain medications. 

I had to consult as it was a usual busy 

Saturday clinic. I can tell you its very 

hard to carry on as normal, when a dog 

you know and love is at risk of dying 

and I couldn’t be there to support my 

mum and dad. I’m very thankful to my 

husband Steve for arriving when he did 

and taking full control of the situation. 

Within 30 minutes of arriving Misty 

actually looked improved. She wasn’t 

wanting to stand, but her vital organs 

were all confirmed fine from her 

blood tests and her heart and lungs 

sounded fine. She was on IV fluids and 

we wanted to give her a little time on 

fluids before we had to sedate and 

xray her abdomen, chest and bones. 

She was an incredible little patient, 

never whimpering nor complaining 

once. Miraculously Misty had broken 

no bones – I was worried her pelvis or 

worse her lower lumbar spine could 

have fractured. 

Misty was discharged later that night 

into my parents care on a variety of 

medications to ensure she was pain

free and comfortable. She certainly 

wasn’t out of the woods but was better 

than any of us could have believed. 

She could walk, just, and was eating 

and had urinated. Misty continued to 

improve slowly over the coming days 

becoming stronger and more mobile 

but my dad had noticed what looked 

like crusty scabs under her dense coat. 

We discovered many of these blackened 

areas and after shaving her back end it 

became obvious that a large area of her 

skin was “dying”, due to vascular ( blood 

vessel) damage suffered at the time of 

the accident. 

Over the next 4 months a massive effort 

was undertaken by my mum and dad 

and Misty herself, to help heal these 

very extensive skin wounds, comparable 

to what you would see in burns victims. 

The area of skin that sloughed off 

initially was about 30cm by 20cm. The 

wound has had to be cleaned, kept 

moist and protected by bandaging for 

the past 4 months. She was monitored 

24/7 and kept inside a lot to protect 

the bandages from slipping. Keeping 

flies away was also a difficult task. She 

has been so brave allowing us all to 

clean and dress it for her but finally the 

healing is nearly complete. 

There were times when my mum wasn’t 

sure we were getting anywhere and 

whether we were doing the right thing 

by her. She is an elderly dog and her 

ongoing care required by my parents 

was huge. But that aside, I could see 

Misty wanted to push through and keep 

going – she wasn’t ready to depart this 

world. Plus she was so dearly loved by 

my parents. It also helped that my mum 

was a registered nurse so could easily 

cope with large wounds and their care. 

Give an animal time, have patience and 

faith and show lots of love and miracles 

can happen. Every day I thank the 

higher powers that I am the one chosen 

to care for all the animals.

Petrol tax for road repairs 

and the benefits of diversity 

City

and the importance

I have always had the 

view that central Government

petrol to help fix Christchurch’s 

streets. 

I have never said or 

supported any proposal 

to have any additional tax

already and I would 

not support this.

Reward offered after horse attacked 

• By Andrew King 

OUTRAGE AND disbelief over 

a brutal attack on a horse in 

Burwood has led to a givealittle 

page being set up to fund a 

reward. 

Gus, a seven-year-old standardbred, 

suffered horrific 

wounds that a vet said were most 

likely inflicted by hitting fences 

as he tried to flee attackers. 

Police were called out on Saturday 

morning after reports two 

men were chasing the horses, 

and found Gus in a terrible state.

THere was some heroic work

been overwhelming,” she said. 

She said a vet has offered to 

look after the other two horses’ 

medical needs until they are 

fighting fit again. 

“It is absolutely amazing,” she 

said. 

Mrs Romeyn bought Gus 

about eight months ago to help 

her “get back on the horse” so to 

speak. 

“I had a big fall [off another 

horse] in 2014, where I broke my 

pelvis, back and neck . . . Gus was 

helping me recover. Every time I 

was down, or in pain, I would go 

and hug him and it would be all 

right,” she said. 

She had taken him for a few 

rides after having two surgeries 

to repair her neck. 

Her children, Monet, 17, and 

Loughton, 16, and niece Claudia 

Anstice, 21, are all traumatised

He was such a lovely natured

didn’t deserve this,” she said.

South Brighton falters to Dunedin club 

SPORTS 

SOUTH BRIGHTON finished 

second at the weekend’s Southern 

Regional Championships on 

New Brighton Beach. 

The reigning surf life saving 

champions couldn’t do enough to 

retain their title, with Dunedin’s 

St Clair taking the overall points 

win. 

South Brighton were the best of 

the Christchurch clubs claiming 

23 individuals titles. 

The event hosted more than 

260 athletes competing in 20 

events over four different age 

groups. 

Extra hype surrounded this 

year’s event with the championships 

acting as a prelude to the 

national championships, which 

will be held at New Brighton 

from March 17 to 19. 

“It was great to see the number 

of clubs that were involved this 

year. The weather on Saturday 

was great, and Sunday definitely 

added another challenge, but 

the on-water conditions were 

still really good for racing,” 

said southern region life saving 

and education manager, Henry 

Lawson. Waimairi (11 titles) and 

Spencer Park (eight titles) also 

had good showings.

AVERAGE weather didn’t

singers and dancers to

getting your friends to leave!

New after-hours service 

provides flexibility for patients 

A new after-hours medical service has 

been launched in Christchurch with the 

aim of providing a better and more readily 

accessible service for patients outside 

normal medical centre hours. 

Dr Martin Seers, a GP at the Selwyn 

Medical Centre in Selwyn Street, says a 

group of GPs are testing this new model for 

out-of-hours medical service that enables 

people to book a specific time to see a 

doctor, rather than having to sit in an afterhours 

waiting room. 

He says anyone seeking medical assistance 

after hours should first call their own GP’s 

phone number, from where they will be 

connected to the Home Care Medical line. 

As with the Health Line phone service, a 

nurse will ask a set of questions to ascertain 

whether the person needs to see a doctor, 

and if not the nurse will advise on how the 

person can take care of themself at home. 

Should they need to see a doctor they 

then go online to the website AfterhoursGP. 

co.nz, answer a few simple questions, then 

book an appointment at a time that suits. 

“This a totally new model and it’s not 

available anywhere else in Canterbury,” Dr 

Seers says. 

“It saves people money by providing selfcare 

advice for those who don’t need to see 

a GP, and for those who do, it doesn’t waste 

their time.” 

The service is currently run out of 

Selwyn Street Medical Centre, which is 

conveniently located just off Brougham 

St, but the service is set up to be venue 

agnostic, so patients in future could be 

seen in any of the medical centres involved 

in the service, Dr Seers says. A key point of 

difference from the traditional after-hours 

surgery system is that it gives people the 

flexibility of choosing their appointment 

time. 

“It’s much more comfortable for people 

to wait at home until their appointment 

time, rather than sitting in a waiting room 

with other unwell people, and not knowing 

when they will be seen. 

“Another point of difference is that 

the service is designed as an ultralow 

bureaucracy system with minimal 

overheads. Using the facilities of existing, 

fully equipped medical centres means it’s 

free or less expensive,” Dr Seers says. 

The service is available Monday to 

Friday from 6pm-11pm and on weekends 

and public holidays as required. It is free 

for under-13 year-olds and $73 for most 

adults, which is cheaper than other afterhours 

services in Christchurch. For non- 

New Zealand residents the cost is $95.
