SELWYN TIMES Tuesday July 26 2016 9 Your Local Views Readers respond to last week’s article on $12 million that has been put into cleaning up Te Waihora/Lake Ellesmere. Phillip Marcs, of Prebbleton – The money for cleaning the lake is not nearly enough. I haven’t lived in Selwyn for very long, only several years, and I am told that it was once a beautiful place that was clean and full of life. The lake is one of the biggest in New Zealand, $12 million is clearly not going to be enough to get it back to what it once was. I would love to take my family there and be able to use it for recreational use. It needs a serious look at and for someone to actually make the health of the lake a priority. It’s a real shame to see something that like this go to waste. How much beneficial work can be done over decades? Will it even be noticeable? It needs a serious cash injection and proper work needs to be done quicker than ‘decades’. I don’t want to see it deteriorate further and become worse. Things need to change. K Partridge, of Leeston – Yes, clean up Lake Ellesmere. This lake can be so beautiful to look at some days but the fact it is so unhealthy is common knowledge. With a clean-up the lake could look and be so healthy and a great place to enjoy. I sometimes go there, not to get in the water, but just to enjoy the sight and scenery and I think it is such a shame more people don’t use it. I think $12 million is the right start but how long will it take to make it like it was? They say decades and that’s a really long time. The place needs to be fixed now. Readers respond to last week’s article on a pig farm operation that has upset neighbours Rose Daniels, of West Melton – I feel for the people living near that pig farm. I certainly wouldn’t want one to move in near me either. The smell must be horrible and I can’t imagine what the dust must be like. The other people who were living there first didn’t buy their land or house expecting a pig farm to go in near them with no warning. It’s just rude. I’m glad the district council seem to actually be doing something about this problem and making them remove the pigs. It will be interesting to see if they listen to them. Good on the homeowners for speaking up and not letting it continue. Isaac Andrews, of Rolleston – I can’t imagine what living next to a pig farm must be like. I understand the need for them but to set one up without letting the people near by know what’s going on is not good enough. Setting up an operation like this leads to a whole load of problems. The noise, dust and mainly the smell. I certainly would complain too if I lived near it. How back and forth from the district council though. They get complaints from the neighbours about it make the farm owners get an abatement notice and apply for consent then grant them the consent. Where is the consistency? Now they’re telling them they have to get rid of the pigs. Must be confusing for all the parties involved.
