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

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.

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.

been set up to raise money for a

minor injuries and have since
been moved from the paddock.

of support and offers of help have

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
by Gus’ death.
He was such a lovely natured
animal, Mrs Romeyn said.
“He would be the first to the
gate and was so inquisitive. He
didn’t deserve this,” she said.

South Brighton falters to Dunedin club
SPORTS
SOUTH BRIGHTON finished
second at the weekend’s Southern

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.

Talent turns out for New Brighton community concert
AVERAGE weather didn’t
deter crowds of people from
attending the annual market
and community concert in New
Brighton on Sunday.
The Talent Show was a popular
event, with all ages joining
in.
From martial arts demonstrations,
singers and dancers to
a youth three-piece band, the
crowd had plenty to choose
from when placing a vote for the
people’s choice winners.
In the end, it was local all-girl
band Beach Break, made up of
Ella Erikson, Lily Larcombe-
Beaston and Keira Huntley, who
took the winning spot.
Ocean Jones came in second
place with his performance. He
sung a Maori rendition of Hallelujah.
William Peg won MC
Willie McArthur’s choice.
The event was funded by Rotary
New Zealand and the city
council’s Creative Community
Scheme with contributions from
Willie McArthur’s open mic and
Pierside Café and Bar.
STUNNER: There were perfect conditions for the under-19
women’s board race on Saturday..
CHAMPIONS: The Spencer
Park master women’s canoe
crew of Sarah Helmore,
Linda Poulsen, Megan Jones
and Angela Maguire won
both the short and long
course races.

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.
