Panelling protects monument from tags
The Woolston Borough Monument’s protective panelling has been tagged just under three weeks after its installation.
The $23,000 project was implemented after the monument had worn its fair share of graffiti.

plans
frustrate
business
owners
• By Noah Graham
FERRY RD business owners
have been left frustrated by the
city council’s new plans for the
Heathcote Expressway cycleway.
After public outcry over the original
plans for the cycleway, which
included removing 90 per cent of
car parks along the stretch of road,
the city council decided to rethink
the proposed option.
The original idea involved removing
63 of the 70 car parks on both
sides of Ferry Rd.
The city council has now proposed
two new options. The city
council’s preferred option is to have
cycle lanes on both sides of Ferry
Rd, which will leave 10 parking
spaces.
The alternative option is to have a
‘bi-directional’ cycleway along one
side of Ferry Rd that will leave 32
parking spaces.
However, Carey Motors owner
Tony Carey said both new options
would not be good for businesses
because too many parking spaces
would still be lost.
Mr Carey said the city council
needed to once again rethink the
options because he does not feel like
it has listened to what businesses
wanted.

ENOUGH REALLY is enough.
That pile of rubble, which really
was a lovely looking church, needs
to jolly well be shifted.
The Sydenham Heritage Church
was unfortunately reduced to
rubble by the February 22, 2011,
earthquake, in rather controversial
fashion. That was not nice.
But since then it has sat, a mass
of grey rubble. Now there have
been problems, understandably.
But they have been sorted and we
keep being told, in an almost comical
fashion, that it will be cleared
“within weeks.” The latest came in
January. It is now nearly April.
An elderly acquaintance of mine
(who will kick me soundly in the
shins for calling her old, but oh
well) said they would eat their hat
if the rubble was actually gone by
April. I suspect their hat’s in no
danger of being eaten.
Read page 3 and see if you agree.

Church rubble soon to be cleared
• By Noah Graham
IT IS still a waiting game as
to when the pile of rubble of
that was once the Sydenham
Heritage Church will finally be
moved.
Sydenham Heritage Trust
chairwoman Dorothy Haywood
told Southern View in
January it was only a matter
of weeks before the church site
would be cleared after the trust
had signed on with contractors.
However, no progress has
been made on the site and
when asked, Mrs Haywood said
it is still weeks away but will
“definitely be very soon.”
The remains have been on
the corner of Colombo and
Brougham Sts for more than
six years since it was controversially
demolished after the
February 22, 2011, earthquake.
Mrs Haywood said clearing
the site was now in the hands of
the contractor who she declined
to name.
When asked by Southern
View why she would not name
the contractors, Mrs Haywood
said: “It is commercially sensitive
information.”
“People do want to know, I
appreciate that. But there are a
lot of things people want the
answers to but do not get.”
DAMAGE: Sydenham Heritage Trust chairwoman Dorothy Haywood – standing in the ruins of
the church site in 2013 before it was completely demolished – says clearing of the rubble will
‘definitely be very soon.’

Mrs Haywood said the trust
was a volunteer group and they
were doing as much as they
could to move the rubble.
“We are doing the best we
can.”
In Brief
NEW PLAYGROUND PLANS
Plans for a new playground in
Woolston Park are planned to be
presented to the community in
May. The city council demolished
the playground in October last
year, without public consultation.
Te Waka Unua school, Woolston
Residents’ Association and other
community groups will be included
in the concept design ideas before it
goes to public consultation.
CYCLEWAY CHANGES
Changes are being made to the
Ferry Rd section of the Heathcote
Expressway cycleway. Following
concerns from business owners
along Ferry Rd, consultation on the
section of the proposed cycleway
was kept open after the rest of it
was closed. Following submissions
the city council’s design team
are looking at other options and
contacted affected proprieties on
Friday. Further submissions will be
taken until April 14.
CONSULTATION CLOSING
Consultation on the plans for a
cycleway that starts in Cashmere
closes on Monday. The Nor’West
Arc cycleway plans were released
last month. The majority of the
route runs through the south side of
the city before finishing in Papanui.
It is planned to start on Ferniehurst
St, before moving onto Woodbank
and Palmside Sts with a pedestrian
island to be built on Rose St.

Linwood-Central-

Board member
Sara Templeton
talks about one
of Christchurch’s
banes, graffiti, and
how well the community
has responded to it.
ashion
IT WASN’T long after the
earthquakes in 2011 that our
city had a sudden rise in graffiti.
Damaged and vacant buildings
were ripe for tagging and our
public spaces became targets for
vandals.
This was true in Heathcote
Valley where I live, as it was
across the city. So, a group of
us called the city council and
Gardening
joined the Graffiti Volunteers
programme ‘Off the Wall’.
Supplied with hi-vis, brushes
and paint we kept on top of the
local problem, reporting it for
removal by contractors when we
couldn’t do the work ourselves.
The problem soon tapered off as
taggers realised that their marks
otoring
weren’t going stay around for
long, and it’s stayed pretty good
since then.
Graffiti is a problem – it damages
property and makes local

residents feel less safe in
their community. Quick
removal is the key, so
reporting it for removal
as soon as it’s seen is
important. Conversely,
graffiti that is left attracts
more graffiti, and we see
this time and time again.
City council can remove
graffiti on road boundary fences,
lamp posts and other similar
public places, but the green
roadside cabinets are looked
after by their owners – Chorus,
Orion or others and city council
can’t remove graffiti on private
buildings. They will pass on the
details if you call, but contacting
the company directly will have a
quicker result.
The city council does an
annual graffiti survey and the
results are striking. In 2013
there were 11,592 tags spotted
and in 2016 only 1591 tags were
seen across the city during the
same period. Interestingly,
reported graffiti has gone up
over the same time coinciding
with the introduction of the
Snap Send Solve app and
accepting complaints about
graffiti on private property.
These complaints are
registered on our books, but the
removal request is forwarded to
the owner.
We have more than 1000
fantastic volunteers helping keep
their communities graffiti free,
but you don’t have to join to help
out. Phone 941 8999 to report it,
or use the Snap Send Solve app
on your phone.
My favourite saying is apt
here – “I used to think that
somebody should do something
about that; then I realised that I
was somebody.” Aren’t we all?
We said: The city council is
unlikely to lower the speed
from 50km/h to 40km/h
outside three primary
schools that has been
campaigning for lower
speed limits.

Panels protect monument
• By Noah Graham
IT HAS taken less than three
weeks for protective panelling
installed on the Woolston
Borough Monument to be tested.
The monument, on the corner
of Ferry Rd and Richardson Tce,
is no stranger to graffiti, and the
city council’s plan seemed to
have worked.
The $23,000 project to install
panels was completed earlier
this month in an effort to deter
taggers from spray painting the
monument.
The panels are clear with a
film over top of them, which can
be replaced if they are defaced,
keeping the monuments clean.
The panels can be removed entirely
during ceremonies.
Woolston Community Centre
co-ordinator Carol Brown said
it was so disappointing that the
panelling had been tagged so

soon after its installation.
However, she said she was glad
the monument had not been
tagged and the panelling had
done its job.
“All the money spent has been
worth it.”
The monument commemorates
when Woolston became a
borough on July 27, 1893, and is
made of Oamaru stone.
City council could not respond
before Southern View’s deadline.
LIBRARY WORK CONTINUES
Work is continuing on
a new Woolston Library
and Community Facility.
Consultation is open until
March 30 to gain community
feedback over the draft concept
designs for the new Woolston
Village facility which will
replace the earthquake damaged
Woolston Volunteer Library on
689 Ferry Rd.

Cycleway plans frustrate
•From page 1
Said Mr Carey: “Nobody is in
favour of this plan at all because
it still removes too much parking
and could negatively impact
businesses.
“It feels like the council are
trying to put people out of business.”
He said businesses relied on
people being able to park on the
roadside as not all of them have
on-site parking.
after the Port Hills fire, residents
were wanting to know what
other potential hazards hillside
residents could face and how
they could be better prepared
for them.
LANDSCAPING PLAN
THe Linwood-Central-
Heathcote Community
Board approved the proposed
landscape plan for the Linwood
Lower Fields flood mitigation
basin. The basin will store flood
water in heavy rainfall and
slowly release it back to Bells
Creek all to reduce the risk of
flooding. Linwood-Central-
Heathcote Community Board
member Sara Templeton said it
was a fantastic step for the area.
“We are going to fight this as
hard as we can,” Mr Carey said.
Ingear owner Ashok Ganda
said he liked the idea of the
cycleway along Ferry Rd but said
the city council need better options
around parking.
“It would be like having a mall
without a car park,” Mr Ganda
said.

FOCUS ON HEALTH
Need more vitality?
The nutrient balance of the body is critical
for optimum aging. Research has shown
the body performs much better if all the
required nutrients are available in sufficient
quantities. The problem is it is very hard
to obtain enough if any of some of these
nutrients from a normal diet. Boron is one
of the many nutrients with amazing benefits
that is lacking in our diet. A 2014 double
blind placebo controlled human clinical
study of a patented form of the mineral
boron delivered significant reduction in
pain, stiffness and joint comfort with 80%
stopping or reducing medication and 87.5%
saying they had less or no stiffness in just 4
weeks. Boron also helps balance hormones
in both men and woman and can increase
fertility. It helps promote healthy muscle
mass, fights diabetes, strengthens the bones
and increases concentration and brain
function.
Pure Vitality are based on the West
Coast of the South Island. They aim to

Help for
Arthritis and
circulation
problems
When an Otaki woman devised a means
of relieving her husband’s arthritic pain,
stiff joints and swollen ankles, she did not
anticipate the demand that would ensue
for her Aircycle. The inflatable exerciser,
allowed her husband to exercise his finger,
ankle, knee and hip joints while sitting
down. So effective was it that an arthritis
educator requested they be made for others.
A hospital registered it with Medsafe to
use in podiatry and diabetes clinics.
Physiotherapists and rest homes
applauded the results. The gentle exercise
results in improved circulation in hands
and feet. People report swelling in ankles
and night cramps are gone. Leg muscles are
strengthened and, with improved balance,
many advise they are able to walk further.
Joint, lower back and sciatic pain is eased.
People use the Aircycle while watching
TV or having a cup of tea. It assists in
combatting OOS and DVT and ideal for
using while sitting in the office and in a car
or plane. It’s so easy!
See Aircycle’s ad on this page for contact

Natural Joint Support
Just Got BETTER!
As we grow older we want to maintain
our health as much as possible.
Unfortunately for many of us our joints start
to let us down becoming stiff, sore, swollen,
reducing mobility and quality of life. Most
of these joints problems are caused by a
lack of cartilage or damage to the cartilage
which is the soft spongy material in all
joints between the moving bones. The body
continually produces cartilage but various
factors like digestive and health issues, a
lack of enough of the right nutrients in the
diet slow the production of this. If cartilage
wears away quicker than it is replaced
the bone ends can start rubbing together
causing reduced joint movement, pain,
swelling and inflammation of the joint.
PURE Vitality are a small company on
the West Coast of the South Island. They are
committed to producing the most effective
natural life changing health supplements
available.
They therefor have put a tremendous
amount of research into their new JOINT
VITALITY product which contains an
exclusive selection of best scientifically
researched high potency natural ingredients
to provide a multipronged approach to
joint health. As well as a full therapeutic
dose of the more common Glucosamine
and Chondroitin, Joint Vitality contains a
concentrated Deer Antler Velvet Extract
from PURE Vitality’s own Deer farm.
Deer antler velvet extract has astounded
scientists and health professionals with
its health restoring properties. Its natural
growth factors help stimulate the healing
of the body. Another unique ingredient in
JOINT VITALITY is Joint Fluid or megapotent
hyaluronic acid. This has been
shown in clinical trials to be more effective
than glucosamine and chondroitin.
Joint Vitality contains enhanced
absorption Turmeric extract as well as
the highest potency extract of Boswellia
available to reduce inflammation, swelling
and pain which speeds joint recovery and
formation of new cartilage.
The formula also provides antioxidants
from Grape Seed extract to support cellular
joint health as well as effective doses of
Vitamin D3, Zinc, Boron, Manganese,
Copper & Selenium that have all be shown
to be critical to optimum joint health.
This heavy duty comprehensive formula is
designed with the most researched highest
potency extracts available for maximum
fast lasting results. It is recommended
to take 3 capsules daily with food for the
first box or two to obtain the maximum
benefits. One box or 60 capsules is $49.90
with a Free joint cream while stocks last.

The facts about
home ventilation
Balanced Pressure vs Positive Pressure
Under the New Zealand Building Code,
all buildings, including residential, need to
be suitably ventilated, either with opening
windows or forced ventilation. Clause G4.1
states: “The objective of this provision is
to safeguard people from illness or loss of
amenity due to lack of fresh air.” There are
many benefits to forced, or mechanical,
ventilation over opening windows, including
warmth, security, reduction of outside noises
and reduction of condensation.
Traditional domestic ventilation systems
are ‘positive pressure’. They bring air in from
outside via the roof space and force the stale air
out through gaps around windows and doors.
The incoming air from these
systems has to be heated or
cooled to keep the house warm
in winter or cool in summer.
The Smooth-Air HEX390 is
a ‘balanced pressure’ system. It
extracts air from the house and
at the same time brings in fresh
air. These two streams of air
pass through a heat exchanger,
which warms incoming air in
winter and cools in summer if
air conditioning is being used.
This means that up to 80% of
the energy which would be
wasted using a traditional positive pressure
system is recovered, resulting in significant
energy savings and therefore lower heating or
cooling costs.
Until recently, balanced pressure ventilation
systems have been considerably more
expensive than traditional positive pressure
systems. However, with Smooth-Air’s unique
manufacturing capabilities, a HEX390
balanced pressure system can be installed for
a similar price as a traditional positive pressure
system.

Warming winter with
EnviroMaster
Are you struggling with the heat of Summer
or wanting to get organised for Winter? With
the ever changing weather patterns, heat
pumps have the flexibility of being able to

appliance can offer. This represents great
value for your investment as you can use it all
year round. The team at Enviro Master Ltd
can help keep you cool this Summer either at
home or work. Enviro Master supplies, installs
and services all the leading brands including
Panasonic, Fujitsu, Mitsubishi and Daikin.
This means our team can show you which
system and brand will best suit your needs.
We currently have savings up to $600

Would you like to maximise the number
of days you can use your swimming pool?
Heating your pool can do this and one of the
most cost effective ways is with a water heat
pump. Enviro Master Ltd can supply, install
and service you swimming pool heat pump
providing you with a comfortable, extended
swimming season.
Servicing your heat pump is extremely
important to ensure that it is working as
effectively and efficiently as possible resulting
in a healthy, hygienic heat pump, lower power
bills and greater comfort. But beware, not
all cleaning companies are equal. We are
constantly hearing of people being charged
huge amounts for servicing and all they are
getting is a heat pump clean. We at Enviro
Master, are qualified engineers and therefore
are able to fully test and diagnose any problems
you may or may not be aware of with your
heat pump. Also, as we are associated with all
major brands, we are able to repair these under
warranty if they are still within the warranty
period.
It is important to remember, when selecting
an installer, the manufacturer’s warranty does
not cover the installation and consumers could
be responsible for any repair or damage caused
to the system due to poor installation. Enviro
Master’s five-star installation guarantee ensures
correct installation, and a demonstration so
customers have an understanding on how it
will best meet their needs.

RSI, OOS or Gradual process
Injury can be treated!
What causes OOS? The Department
of Labour states: “One of the
favourable explanations for OOS is
that it is caused by muscles being
held tense or tight for too long.’’
These conditions may be caused
by repetitive tasks, forceful exertions,
vibrations, mechanical compression, or
sustained or awkward positions.
The shorter and tenser the muscle, the
harder it pulls on the places it attaches to
(e.g. the bone). When this happens in the
forearm the pull at those attachments and
tendons causes irritation and inflammation
of those areas. This will be noticed as pain in
the elbow and wrist. When this happens in
the neck and shoulder area, it will be noticed
as local pain, stiffness and sometimes
headaches. The nerves run right through
the muscles. Tension on the muscles causes
pressure on the nerves. As the muscles
shorten, the nerves running through them
have a tendency to both shorten and slide
less well. This causes the nerves to radiate
pain throughout the arm.
Triggerpoints are areas in your muscles,
where a few muscle fibres have contracted
in a knot. These knots (the hard and painful
areas in your muscles felt during massage)
weaken and shorten your muscles and can
cause referred pain.
This drawing is an example of pain areas
(the red area), caused by triggerpoints (the
black X).
This is your muscle’s reaction to continuous
irritation. In most cases, there are multiple
causes for this irritation. These could be:
repeated actions without breaks; constant
static posture resulting in constant muscle
contraction; lack of healthy blood flow; bad
posture resulting in continuous high loading
of some muscles, etc.
As you can see, your thumb pain can
originate in your neck. Pain in your little
finger or forearm
can originate in
your chest. This
is the reason that
your therapist
may treat an
area, other than
where you are
experiencing
pain.
In the following
drawing you can
see the painful
areas in the head
caused by the
triggerpoint in the neck. This is often the
result of poor posture.
Physical Sense has been treating
this condition for the last 25 years.
Their experience is:
• Most of the patients who have had their
pain for less than a year leave this clinic free
of pain (but they have to be very careful to
avoid relapses).
• When the OOS pain has been there
for more than a year, that percentage drops
to 60%.
• The other 40% will leave the clinic with
relief of pain and with knowledge about
numerous strategies to relieve and handle
the remaining pain.
Suffering from OOS/RSI/
Gradual Process Injury?
Physical Sense has published the “OOS
Client Information Booklet”. It is full of
handy tips on how to self treat and avoid
this condition.

running
red lights
• By Gabrielle Stuart
CHRISTCHURCH’S growing
red light-running problem is
leaving dozens of injuries in its
wake.
In the past year, there were 65
crashes which left people
injured after drivers ran
red lights, up from 42 the
year before.
At the city’s top 10
worst intersections this
month, almost 5400
drivers ran red lights in a
single day.
That was up 31 per cent from
last year, and 64 per cent more
than in 2014.
They do not include people
turning right across an intersection
on a red light.
The worst for red light-runners
was the intersection of Blenheim
Rd and Mandeville St, where 652
were detected on a single day on
Thursday, December 1.
Police figures have also grown.
In the last year, 1491 people
were ticketed for running red
lights in Christchurch, up from

Canterbury road policing
manager Inspector Al Stewart
(left) said he was disappointed to
see the rise.
“It puts people at risk. They
may get away with it 99
out of 100 times, but it is
that one time which could
leave someone injured or
killed,” he said.
He said police had a
focus last year on bad
driving at intersections,
which included red
light-running, and that would
continue until the numbers
improved.
People often had different
excuses when ticketed for running
red lights, but there was no
acceptable reason, he said.
“A lot of people are simply
focused on other things and
don’t see it, but that is just as
unacceptable as running a light
deliberately, because when driving
you should be focused on the
task at hand,” he said.
