Drinking<br />

driver<br />

clocked at<br />

164km/h<br />

Motorist four times the limit<br />

• By Andrew King<br />

A MOTORIST was caught<br />

travelling at 164km/h with four<br />

times the legal breath/alcohol<br />

limit on Saturday.<br />

Senior Constable Andy Williamson<br />

was on his way to a call<br />

in Akaroa when he clocked the<br />

speeding, 40-year-old man on<br />

the Christchurch Akaroa Rd,<br />

SH75, near Motukarara at about<br />

5pm.<br />

Moments before he recorded<br />

him at that speed, Senior Constable<br />

Williamson said the man’s<br />

car was travelling at 172km/h.<br />

When the driver, who was<br />

from Christchurch, got out of<br />

his Volkswagen Golf, Senior<br />

Constable Williamson noticed<br />

the smell of alcohol.<br />

He recorded a breath/alcohol<br />

reading of 1025mcg/l.<br />

The legal limit is 250mcg/l.<br />

“It is absolute madness. It’s<br />

one of the single most reckless<br />

acts of driving I have experienced,”<br />

Senior Constable Williamson<br />

said.<br />

“He is risking himself and<br />

others if he was to crash at that<br />

speed, it would be horrific to<br />

everyone involved. It is suicidal.”<br />

The man was arrested and<br />

charged with driving at a dangerous<br />

speed and excess breath<br />

alcohol.<br />

When asked what his excuse<br />

for driving so recklessly, he said:<br />

“I just put my foot down.”<br />

His licence is suspended for<br />

28 days from the incident and<br />

he had to pay for a tow truck to<br />

collect his car from the side of<br />

the road.<br />

He will appear in the<br />

Christchurch District Court on<br />

June 7.<br />

THAT WAS one heck of a crazy<br />

piece of driving we reveal on page<br />

1 today.<br />

The motorist was going<br />

160km/h-plus and was tanked up<br />

on enough jungle juice to put him<br />

four times the legal drink driving<br />

limit – and in hot water with the<br />

law.<br />

The road between Little River<br />

and Motukarara where he was<br />

stopped is notorious for crashes.<br />

When you are going at the speed<br />

he was and full of booze the<br />

chance of crashing at some stage of<br />

his journey was very, very high.<br />

So luckily for other road users<br />

and the gentleman himself, Senior<br />

Constable Andy Williamson from<br />

the Lincoln police station was<br />

heading to Akaroa on a job.<br />

Group to look at freedom camping<br />

• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding<br />

A WORKING party will be set<br />

up to ensure the district has<br />

facilities in place to cope with<br />

the influx of freedom campers.<br />

It comes as a result of the<br />

district having to deal with large<br />

numbers of freedom campers<br />

due to the Christchurch<br />

City Council<br />

changing its rules<br />

last year.<br />

The decision<br />

for the working<br />

Grant<br />

Miller<br />

party was made at<br />

a public excluded<br />

meeting last week<br />

with the district councillors.<br />

Last year, Christchurch City<br />

Council changed its freedom<br />

camping bylaw to ban campers<br />

without toilets from councilowned<br />

land.<br />

<strong>May</strong>or Sam Broughton, who<br />

is on the committee, said the<br />

district is suffering because of<br />

Christchurch City Council’s<br />

decisions.<br />

He said the working party<br />

will look at facilities for places<br />

including Lake Coleridge,<br />

Chamberlains Ford and Coes<br />

Ford for the following summer.<br />

The details on who will make<br />

up the working party are yet to<br />

be revealed.<br />

District council chief executive<br />

INFLUX: The Coes Ford camping ground is one of the areas to have an increase in freedom<br />

campers over the past year as a result of the Christchurch City Council tightening up its rules.<br />

David Ward said the working<br />

party has not been formed, but<br />

some district councillors have<br />

informally offered to assist.<br />

Recent incidents of people<br />

defecating at the St Mary’s<br />

Anglican Church churchyard in<br />

Springston during summer were<br />

raised at the district council’s<br />

draft <strong>2017</strong>-2018 Annual Plan<br />

hearing last week.<br />

In his submission, Springston<br />

Community Committee<br />

chairman Rupert Tipples<br />

discussed the lack of public<br />

toilets in the township and<br />

requested toilets be established.<br />

Concern was also raised at<br />

the Springston Reserve and<br />

Associated Sports Committee<br />

meeting last week that people<br />

have been defecating in the<br />

reserve.<br />

The committee would like to<br />

see a two compartment toilet<br />

facility – one for able and one for<br />

disabled people in the area.<br />

District councillor Grant<br />

Miller said he does not see<br />

why toilet facilities cannot be<br />

provided in Springston and<br />

there is a need around the entire<br />

district.<br />

“Most ratepayers would<br />

suggest, it is better to have public<br />

toilets than have someone going<br />

in the churchyard,” he said.<br />

Earlier this month, <strong>Selwyn</strong><br />

<strong>Times</strong> revealed that a report on<br />

the impact of freedom camping<br />

in the area was presented to<br />

district councillors.<br />

However, the report may not<br />

be released until August.<br />

think a freedom camping<br />

working party will help<br />

issues in the district? Email<br />

In Brief<br />

FARMER CAMPAIGN<br />

<strong>Selwyn</strong> farmers will be among<br />

those targeted by a campaign<br />

started by Environment Canterbury<br />

last week. It will remind<br />

them of their responsibility to<br />

meet water quality limits and<br />

help them to find out if they will<br />

need a water consent to farm this<br />

year.<br />

RECYCLING FACILITIES<br />

Arthur’s Pass and Castle Hill will<br />

receive new recycling facilities.<br />

Recycling stations using large,<br />

customised shipping containers<br />

will be established in three<br />

locations – two in Arthur’s Pass<br />

and one at Castle Hill. The proposed<br />

system will recover about<br />

40-tonne of recyclable material<br />

per annum. .<br />

RE-ESTABLISHED<br />

CYCLEWAY IN DARFIELD<br />

The Malvern Community<br />

Board was asked at its meeting<br />

yesterday if a triangular block<br />

of trees on the corner of Wards<br />

and Clintons Rds can be used<br />

as a cycle track. The request<br />

was made by Darfield resident<br />

Ken Jorgensen. Mr Jorgensen<br />

discovered an overgrown track<br />

in the area that is estimated to<br />

have not been used for several<br />

years. The land is a district<br />

Key projects highlighted in district’s<br />

• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding<br />

NEARLY 200 residents have<br />

weighed in on the district<br />

council’s Annual Plan.<br />

A health hub in Rolleston,<br />

district-wide rates for stormwater<br />

and plans for an extension<br />

to the <strong>Selwyn</strong> Aquatic Centre<br />

are among the key projects in<br />

the draft <strong>2017</strong>-2018 Annual<br />

Plan.<br />

Consultation for the plan<br />

closed recently.<br />

A hearing panel for verbal submissions<br />

was held last week with<br />

the panel made up of the district<br />

councillors.<br />

Submissions were made<br />

by organisations including<br />

Federated Farmers, the Leeston<br />

Community Committee, the<br />

Malvern Community Board and<br />

Environment Canterbury.<br />

Federated Farmers supported<br />

a district-wide rate for<br />

stormwater and encouraged<br />

consideration of targeted rates<br />

for footpath extensions and any<br />

ongoing maintenance.<br />

It wished to emphasise that<br />

any increased rates burden can<br />

affect ratepayers differently, so it<br />

is important to look beyond the<br />

“average” increase.<br />

Squash Canterbury has<br />

pointed out there is inadequate<br />

Jack Pearcy<br />

facilities to assist their sport in<br />

the district.<br />

“For our sport to<br />

remain relevant, we need<br />

facilities where people<br />

are living,” Squash<br />

Canterbury facilities<br />

representative Scott<br />

Gardiner said in his<br />

submission.<br />

It would like to look<br />

at securing facilities at<br />

Foster Park in Rolleston.<br />

The Kirwee Township Committee<br />

asked for Courtenay Rd<br />

to be widened from State Highway<br />

73 to Wards Rd as a result<br />

of the South Island Field<br />

Days.<br />

The committee’s secretary<br />

Ngaire Kent said in<br />

her submission the huge<br />

amount of traffic from<br />

the event caused significant<br />

damage to the side<br />

of the road.<br />

The Springfield<br />

Township Committee<br />

requested a plot of land<br />

at 1 Tawera Lane to be made<br />

into a native forest reserve for<br />

the benefit of the township, its<br />

visitors and for environmental<br />

biodiversity.<br />

About 10,000 plants would<br />

be needed for the project. The<br />

planting itself would be done<br />

over a five-year period, at 2000<br />

trees per year.<br />

Funds would be sought from<br />

the project through the Lotteries<br />

Environment and Heritage<br />

fund.<br />

Doyleston Community<br />

Committee member Jack Pearcy<br />

said in his submission he was<br />

concerned about the condition<br />

of Leeston Rd between<br />

Irwell Hall and the Irwell<br />

village.<br />

Included in his submission,<br />

he said it was disappointing<br />

to note that the ratepayers of<br />

Leeston will not have their<br />

library opening on Sundays and<br />

their weekday hours are different<br />

from the other libraries in the<br />

district.<br />

Mr Pearcy said work should be<br />

done on making provision for a<br />

new cemetery in the Rolleston/<br />

West Melton area.<br />

He was also supportive of<br />

the inclusion of a dump station<br />

in Leeston (requested by the<br />

Leeston Community Committee)<br />

so that the camper vans have<br />

somewhere to discharge their<br />

wastewater.<br />

The Castle Hill Village Township<br />

Committee discussed a<br />

range of issues in their submission<br />

including asking for the<br />

village’s speed limit to be lowered<br />

to 30km/h and the district<br />

council develops a long-term<br />

plan for waste.<br />

The submission said significant<br />

number of visitors are attracted<br />

to the Craigieburn Basin<br />

due to the three attractions Cave<br />

Stream, Kura Tāwhiti, and the<br />

Craigieburn Trails.<br />

Does the 31 October<br />

Annual Plan<br />

It sought from the district<br />

council $3000 pa for the maintenance<br />

of the tracks and asked<br />

to explore a future plan around<br />

facilities, development and marketing<br />

in the area.<br />

It also covered that the village’s<br />

public toilets are heavily<br />

used and in need of a separate<br />

block and the committee is in<br />

need of developing appropriate<br />

activities and equipment for its<br />

playground.<br />

A large number of non-verbal<br />

submissions were made from<br />

residents, the Lincoln Community<br />

Centre, the Rolleston<br />

Medical Centre and the Lakeside<br />

Soldiers Memorial Hall Committee.<br />

Along with the 185 submissions<br />

made, the council received<br />

241 comments on their online<br />

survey.<br />

The online survey revealed<br />

51.6 per cent of people who took<br />

part in the survey were from the<br />

<strong>Selwyn</strong> central ward.<br />

Fourteen per cent of people<br />

who took part were from the<br />

Springs ward, 11 per cent from<br />

Malvern, nine per cent from<br />

Ellesmere, while 12 per cent were<br />

unsure what ward they lived in.<br />

Key questions asked in the<br />

HOURS: The library at Leeston will not be opening on Sundays.<br />

survey was around if people<br />

would support a standard stormwater<br />

rate of $85 per property in<br />

areas where the council manages<br />

the stormwater.<br />

Overall 45.6 per cent supported<br />

the proposal while 42 per<br />

cent did not. 51.3 per cent of the<br />

<strong>Selwyn</strong> Central ward did not<br />

support the rise while 66.7 per<br />

cent of people in Ellesmere did.<br />

Seventy per cent of<br />

participants were for a new<br />

health hub, about 57 per cent<br />

for the extension to the <strong>Selwyn</strong><br />

Aquatic Centre and 60 per<br />

cent was for extra funding by<br />

sealing sections of 19 footpaths<br />

throughout the area.<br />

A new multi-purpose pool<br />

is also under consideration by<br />

the district council with an<br />

increase in the swimming pool<br />

rate likely to be needed to build<br />

the facilities. Sixty-two per cent<br />

of participants on the online<br />

survey supported the idea.<br />

A GROUP of emerging DJs have<br />

started up a new radio station in<br />

Lincoln.<br />

The Glitch 107.5 was launched<br />

yesterday aiming to be a platform<br />

for people in <strong>Selwyn</strong> to promote<br />

their talents.<br />

The team behind the radio station<br />

is Lincoln High School year<br />

13 students Edgar Paterson, Max<br />

Tattersfield, Anton Phillipson,<br />

Natalie Lilley, Hannah Boniface,<br />

Daniella Judge, Ellen Thompson<br />

and Beverley Cheyne.<br />

The station is part of a new<br />

radio course introduced to the<br />

school this year.<br />

Daniella said the station has a<br />

great line up of talk shows that<br />

cover current events, pop culture,<br />

advice, musicals and the maintenance<br />

of motor vehicles.<br />

Anton will talk on the station<br />

STARTING UP:<br />

The team behind<br />

Lincoln High<br />

School’s new radio<br />

station. (Back row<br />

row) – Hannah<br />

Boniface and<br />

Daniella Judge.<br />

Students on the airwaves<br />

about teenagers owning their<br />

first car and general maintenance<br />

such as changing a car tyre.<br />

“Our team wants The Glitch<br />

to be a get away from the replays<br />

of current music and to help<br />

listeners to discover music they<br />

wouldn’t have been able to find<br />

otherwise,” she said.<br />

She said the students want<br />

the station to be a platform for<br />

the people of <strong>Selwyn</strong> to use to<br />

promote their talents, especially<br />

if musical.<br />

While The Glitch airs in a<br />

10km radius of Lincoln High<br />

School, students are hoping to<br />

have an online platform in the<br />

future for anyone to listen.<br />

Children focus of skate park<br />

• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding<br />

LACK OF space means a skate<br />

park in Lincoln will be aimed at<br />

young teenagers and children.<br />

Designs for the new skate park<br />

in Lincoln have been released<br />

showing it will<br />

predominantly cater<br />

for children and<br />

amateur skaters.<br />

The skate park<br />

Grant<br />

Miller<br />

Malcolm<br />

Lyall<br />

will be sited next<br />

to the children’s<br />

playground where<br />

the barbecue area<br />

is at the Lincoln<br />

Event Centre. The<br />

barbecue area will<br />

be re-sited close by.<br />

<strong>Selwyn</strong> district<br />

councillor Grant<br />

Miller said the size<br />

of the skate park<br />

came down to what space is<br />

available in the area.<br />

“Finding a site within Lincoln<br />

has been very challenging . . .<br />

there has always been a reason<br />

of why not from nearby residents,”<br />

he said.<br />

But a larger skate park similar<br />

to the Prebbleton Community<br />

Park has not been ruled out in<br />

the future.<br />

Deputy <strong>May</strong>or Malcolm Lyall<br />

said, as Lincoln develops with<br />

new subdivisions, a site might<br />

be found.<br />

“Eventually, I would like to see<br />

that in Lincoln, but it is a matter<br />

of having it in the right space,”<br />

he said.<br />

In the district council’s<br />

2015-2025 Long Term Plan, it is<br />

projected Lincoln will reach a<br />

population of 9442 by 2025.<br />

Consultation on the designs<br />

were held last week outside the<br />

event centre.<br />

The skate park is planned to<br />

be about 260m 2 .<br />

District council community<br />

projects and facilities manager<br />

Cameron Warr said it will cater<br />

to all age groups from learner<br />

to medium level ability skaters,<br />

scooter and BMX riders.<br />

A big bowl, a shallow bowl,<br />

skatable seats, new plants and<br />

lighting is in the initial plans.<br />

The existing seating and barbecue<br />

shelter will be relocated to<br />

make way for the skate park and<br />

a new drinking fountain will be<br />

added.<br />

The skate park was initially<br />

planned to be located in an area<br />

behind the Lincoln Rugby Club.<br />

But there was concern about<br />

vandalism.<br />

SET PLAN: The<br />

new location for<br />

the Lincoln Skate<br />

Park will require<br />

the existing<br />

seating and<br />

barbecue shelter<br />

near the Lincoln<br />

Event Centre to be<br />

removed.<br />

The Men’s Shed of Lincoln<br />

Society may now utilise the<br />

space by the rugby club for a<br />

new facility.<br />

The skate park will be close to<br />

the Lincoln Bowling Club.<br />

Club member Isabel Murray<br />

said they were under the<br />

impression it was for under-<br />

10-year-olds.<br />

To view the plan, go to the<br />

district council’s Facebook page.<br />

POPULAR: Springston School pupils learning to grow healthy<br />

food with a volunteer at the Springston secret garden . ​<br />

Volunteers needed to<br />

keep garden in operation<br />

Children dismayed with<br />

amount of rubbish at ford<br />

PUPILS AT Springston<br />

School have spent a<br />

day weeding, collecting<br />

rubbish and testing water<br />

at Chamberlains Ford.<br />

The work was part of<br />

the Serve NZ Anzac Day<br />

project getting pupils<br />

to pledge two hours of<br />

service.<br />

They identified Chamberlains<br />

Ford as their community<br />

project and were<br />

joined by Enviroschools<br />

Canterbury facilitator<br />

Matt Stanford and resident<br />

Mike Glover.<br />

Mr Glover and Mr Stanford<br />

discussed with the<br />

students the environmental<br />

impacts on the natural<br />

environment.<br />

Pupils were dismayed at<br />

the amount of rubbish that<br />

had been collected within<br />

the Chamberlains Ford<br />

perimeter.<br />

Pupils Lilly Maree and<br />

Nina said when they found<br />

out they were going to<br />

spend the day at Chamberlains<br />

they were excited.<br />

“Going to Chamberlains<br />

Ford and seeing all those<br />

weeds around our plants<br />

and so much rubbish lying<br />

on the ground, not to<br />

mention the water quality<br />

still being so bad made me<br />

feel kind of upset because<br />

I love going there,” one of<br />

the pupils said.<br />

The children ripped out<br />

a lot of nasty weed and<br />

collected several bags of<br />

rubbish.<br />

A POPULAR garden with<br />

Springston School pupils is need<br />

of more volunteers to keep it<br />

running.<br />

The Springston Environmental<br />

Community group is calling<br />

out for helpers to maintain its<br />

Springston secret garden or it<br />

may no longer be sustainable.<br />

“We now do not have enough<br />

people to keep the garden going<br />

. . . if we don’t find some extra<br />

helpers soon we might not be able<br />

to keep the garden,” Springston<br />

Environmental Community<br />

Committee chairwoman Dr Sue<br />

Jarvis said.<br />

She said the committee is<br />

looking for as many volunteers as<br />

possible.<br />

Volunteers are needed to help<br />

keep the garden tidy, run programmes<br />

for Springston School<br />

pupils, act as adviser or a overall<br />

co-ordinator.<br />

The garden was so popular<br />

it even had a visit from former<br />

prime minister John Key in<br />

2014.<br />

The garden’s lost its both its<br />

volunteer co-ordinator and adviser<br />

last year.<br />

Dr Jarvis said the loss of the<br />

garden would be a huge shame<br />

for the Springston community.<br />

The garden was first set up<br />

in 2011 in the back section of a<br />

Springston resident and has a<br />

gate into the primary school.<br />

It was named the “secret garden”<br />

by Springston pupils and is<br />

well-used.<br />

Dr Jarvis said the pupils use<br />

the garden with the support of<br />

teachers and community members<br />

to learn how to grow and use<br />

healthy food.<br />

“Having the opportunity to<br />

grow things makes our kids<br />

smarter and gives them opportunity<br />

to show leadership skills.<br />

A practical outside classroom is<br />

an ideal learning environment<br />

for many of our children and<br />

they experience success here,” she<br />

said.<br />

<strong>Selwyn</strong> Waihora Zone<br />

Committee chairman Allen<br />

Lim responds to Mike<br />

Glover’s letter in <strong>Selwyn</strong><br />

<strong>Times</strong> (<strong>May</strong> 16)<br />

While we can always do better<br />

with our communication, I am<br />

surprised that the Te Waihora/<br />

Lake Ellesmere nutrient load<br />

limit is news to Mike Glover<br />

(<strong>May</strong> 9).<br />

It has been discussed with the<br />

community for several years and<br />

the water plan that includes it<br />

(Plan Change 1 to the Land &<br />

Water Regional Plan) was made<br />

operative in early 2016.<br />

Following through on our<br />

aim of restoring the mauri of Te<br />

Waihora while maintaining a<br />

prosperous economy, the <strong>Selwyn</strong><br />

Waihora Zone Committee arrived<br />

at the 4800-tonne level<br />

having listened to the whole<br />

community. This was an open,<br />

transparent and democratic<br />

course of action.<br />

The load limit remained in<br />

place throughout the Resource<br />

Management Act process in<br />

which the public could also<br />

participate.<br />

In the <strong>Selwyn</strong> Te Waihora<br />

catchment, farmers with nitrogen<br />

losses above 15kg per hectare<br />

per year cannot leach more than<br />

their losses between 2009 and<br />

2013.<br />

In <strong>2017</strong>, this loss needs to be<br />

managed in line with industryagreed<br />

good management<br />

practices.<br />

In 2022, farmers will need to<br />

make further reductions; 30 per<br />

cent in the case of dairy.<br />

We are not telling farmers<br />

how to run their businesses, but<br />

they must find a way to meet the<br />

limits.<br />

There will be enforcement<br />

consequences if they don’t.<br />

Further, restoration and<br />

enhancement programmes<br />

such as Whakaora Te Waihora<br />

will lead to improved water<br />

quality in the lake and the wider<br />

catchment.<br />

Sarah Anderson responds<br />

to <strong>Selwyn</strong> <strong>Times</strong>’ article on<br />

the Snake Creek restoration<br />

project<br />

The proposed restoration project<br />

on Snake Creek is an excellent<br />

idea. Furthermore, wouldn’t<br />

it be fantastic to see every drain<br />

and creek around <strong>Selwyn</strong> resuscitated.<br />

We would all be so much<br />

better off, more wetlands,<br />

more creek and riverbed<br />

restoration and management will<br />

make farming more sustainable<br />

and our waterways much<br />

healthier for everyone to enjoy –<br />

most importantly our flora and<br />

fauna.<br />

Lee Brehaut responds<br />

to <strong>Selwyn</strong> <strong>Times</strong>’ article<br />

on the proposed cycleway<br />

between Leeston and<br />

Doyleston<br />

I fully support the development<br />

of a cycleway between<br />

Doyleston and Leeston.<br />

Doyleston and Leeston will<br />

continue increasing their<br />

populations, Doyleston has an<br />

awesome park – including a<br />

(left) and<br />

Snake Creek is<br />

welcomed.<br />

BMX track – more people are<br />

wanting to cycle as a recreation<br />

and are looking for places to ride<br />

in safety, the distance is an easy<br />

ride to access services in Leeston<br />

village.<br />

As a resident of Doyleston, I<br />

have walked home from Leeston<br />

along Leeston Rd. It was not<br />

pleasant in spite of it being<br />

mid-morning and in good<br />

weather.<br />

Two cars (one overtaking)<br />

travelling towards Doyleston<br />

passed together right beside me<br />

as I walked on the side towards<br />

oncoming traffic.<br />

With my back to them I did<br />

not see these two cars coming<br />

so when they passed me at 80<br />

-100km/h. I got a fright and realised<br />

just how unsafe this stretch<br />

of road is.<br />

Because of the berm camber,<br />

it is hard to walk well away from<br />

the road edge. I would never<br />

cycle on this road.<br />

This cycleway is in the district<br />

plan and I believe is an excellent<br />

project to enhance the live, work<br />

and play mantra of the <strong>Selwyn</strong><br />

district.<br />

A community punching<br />

well above its weight<br />

Dunsandel<br />

Community<br />

Committee<br />

chairman<br />

Russell<br />

Dalzell<br />

writes<br />

about<br />

developments in the<br />

area<br />

We live in a vibrant,<br />

small community that<br />

punches way above it’s<br />

weight in pretty much<br />

every aspect of life.<br />

Whether it be school<br />

achievement, sporting<br />

achievement, business<br />

achievement or just good<br />

old family and community<br />

values.<br />

We are in the closing<br />

stages of a seven-year programme<br />

to replace our old<br />

community hall.<br />

This was badly damaged<br />

in the September 4, 2010,<br />

earthquake.<br />

This new facility is going<br />

to be one that we will be<br />

proud of and will serve as<br />

a focal point for the whole<br />

community for many years<br />

to come.<br />

To achieve this we asked<br />

the locals to dip into their<br />

Care Homes<br />

pockets and the response<br />

has been amazing.<br />

Rarely has a project such<br />

as this experienced such<br />

generosity from the local<br />

community.<br />

This community cares<br />

about core values that<br />

make life in Dunsandel the<br />

special place it is.<br />

The grand opening will<br />

at this stage be in late July<br />

or early August and all<br />

locals are invited to attend.<br />

While we have been<br />

busy with the new facility<br />

we have also installed new<br />

tennis/netball courts at the<br />

Dunsandel Domain and<br />

another two are on the<br />

drawing board for 2018/19.<br />

We have a near new<br />

all-weather bowling green<br />

which is well supported.<br />

Small bore rifle shooting<br />

has one of the best facilities<br />

in Canterbury tucked away<br />

inside the existing sports<br />

centre. Rugby, cricket, tennis,<br />

netball, twilight netball<br />

and touch rugby are<br />

all active on our domain.<br />

Once the new facility is<br />

opened we would love to<br />

see the resurgence of other<br />

indoor sports.<br />

The school speaks for itself<br />

with academic achievement<br />

levels up there with<br />

the best.<br />

The township boasts the<br />

world famous Dunsandel<br />

Store, great tea rooms and<br />

a reborn hotel that is<br />

rapidly gaining a great<br />

reputation as a fine place<br />

to dine.<br />

Quirky retail in Che<br />

Bellos and hairdressing for<br />

the ladies and a barber for<br />

the gents.<br />

Also a couple of very well<br />

appointed vet clinics and<br />

the iconic Happers Honda.<br />

The Trinity Church (Anglican<br />

and co-operating) is<br />

strong in a modern, warm<br />

and welcoming environment.<br />

A new subdivision<br />

has been planned on the<br />

north-west of the township<br />

so the future is looking<br />

very bright indeed.<br />

A family-friendly<br />

place to be.<br />

Located in north west Christchurch, Bupa Maidstone<br />

Care Home puts you and your family first, with rest<br />

home, hospital and respite care options available.<br />

SPORTS<br />

STRONG RUN: Thomas Simmers<br />

fends off the opposition.<br />

• By Gordon Findlater<br />

WAIHORA ARE still alive in their<br />

defence of the Combined Country<br />

Cup after sneaking into the<br />

play-offs with a final round-robin<br />

match win over Saracens 20-16.<br />

The match at Tai Tapu Domain<br />

served as a winner take all playoff<br />

berth. Coming into the game<br />

Waihora were in fifth place behind<br />

Saracens, which occupied the final<br />

play-off spot in section 1.<br />

“It was like a finals footy game<br />

and it brought out the best in the<br />

guys,” said Waihora coach Joff<br />

Moore.<br />

The home team held a 10-6 lead<br />

at half-time and were never given<br />

much room to breathe by Saracens<br />

which were also desperate to book a<br />

BATTLE: Waihora’s<br />

Richard Mills pushes<br />

off the tackle of Josh<br />

<strong>May</strong>nard<br />

spot in this weekend’s quarter-final.<br />

“The last five minutes was tense,<br />

they had a lot of the ball but our<br />

defence was able to force errors,”<br />

said Moore.<br />

Waihora will now travel to their<br />

nemesis club Southbridge on<br />

Saturday in a rematch of last year’s<br />

final.<br />

“They’ve gone through the competition<br />

unbeaten and it will be<br />

tough, but they’re in the finals now<br />

and it all starts again,” said Moore.<br />

“There was an issue with the architects<br />

plans which impacted on the noise levels<br />

of the bar and restaurant,” says owner<br />

Murray Davie.<br />

“We had customers kindly bring this<br />

to our attention, which is great because it<br />

means they are really invested in the place<br />

and love calling it their own. As a result<br />

we have gone ahead and remedied the<br />

issue.”<br />

New sound ceiling baffles have been<br />

installed which have made a difference<br />

in reducing the noise for all those who<br />

go there to enjoy a meal, have a coffee or<br />

meet up with friends for a drink.<br />

This is just in time, as the Silver Dollar<br />

started its quiz nights last week which saw<br />

teams take part in the Believe It or Not<br />

quiz – now a weekly feature of the<br />

bar and restaurant.<br />

The Silver Dollar opened earlier this<br />

year after owners Murray and Bernie<br />

Taylor spent two years planning and<br />

developing the establishment.<br />

One thing is clear – the owners really<br />

listen to their customers.<br />

“We are really proud of this place and<br />

we want the people of <strong>Selwyn</strong> to be proud<br />

of it too, so we hope they continue to let<br />

us know of the things they love about it<br />

and the things that need improving. After<br />

all we want this to be the place where our<br />

locals and visitors come and relax and<br />

really enjoy themselves.”<br />

Alpine recycling<br />

station open<br />

The first of three new recycling stations is now operating at Arthur’s Pass. The new station is<br />

open to local residents, holiday home owners, businesses and tourists. Later this year a second<br />

station will be opened at Arthur’s Pass and another is also planned at Castle Hill. The Arthur’s<br />

Pass stations are located within the National Park. An estimated 250,000 visitors pass through the<br />

township each year.<br />

The stations have been funded with support from the Government’s Waste Minimisation Fund.<br />

The fund provides financial support for projects that improve New Zealand’s performance in<br />

waste minimisation. It is funded from a levy which is charged on waste disposed of at landfills<br />

to discourage waste. Over $60 million has been awarded to more than 120 projects across New<br />

Zealand from the fund to date.<br />

The recycling stations are constructed from converted 20 foot shipping containers. The bins<br />

are fitted with kea proof flaps to reduce the risk of the inquisitive birds moving the bin contents<br />

elsewhere or harming themselves by eating recyclables.<br />

The recycling stations can accept clean glass bottles, household plastic containers, aluminium<br />

and steel cans, paper and cardboard.<br />

Protect your home through good<br />

maintenance<br />

For most families, their home is their biggest asset, so maintaining<br />

your home in good condition is important to protect its condition<br />

and value.<br />

While most modern homes are low maintenance, this doesn’t<br />

mean they are no maintenance. Many of the actions you can take<br />

to protect your home are simple and low cost. One of the main<br />

problems affecting New Zealand homes is indoor moisture. Damp<br />

homes create an unhealthy environment and are harder to heat. You<br />

can help reduce damp by:<br />

· insulating your home<br />

· ventilating it by regularly opening windows, using extractor fans or<br />

a dehumidifier<br />

· heating your home<br />

· replacing gas heaters with electric or flued gas heaters.<br />

If you identify your home has a problem with mould, water stains or<br />

musty smells it could be a sign of a more serious problem like leaky<br />

pipes – you can visit www.consumerbuild.org.nz for more information.<br />

For brick veneer homes you need to check that drainage cavities<br />

at the base of walls are clear and don’t have plants or soil blocking<br />

them. For concrete block homes it is important to maintain<br />

the waterproof coating which protects weathertightness. Fibre<br />

cement cladding need more maintenance than other cladding<br />

types and may require regular washing according to the product<br />

manufacturer’s instructions. All homes need to be regularly<br />

inspected and any maintenance items identified should be<br />

addressed promptly to avoid deterioration. Again the consumer<br />

build website has advice on this topic.<br />

Areas you should regularly inspect around your home include the<br />

roof, where you need to check that cladding, chimneys or flashings<br />

are not corroding, lifting or crumbling. You should also trim trees to<br />

prevent leaves from blocking gutters and causing flooding. Balconies<br />

and decks need to be checked to ensure that the area can drain<br />

properly to avoid water creating issues with rotting. For more advice<br />

on home maintenance visit www.consumerbuild.org.nz<br />

On the roads this week<br />

Road stabilising work will take place on Morgans and Zig Zag Roads, the roads will remain open with<br />

traffic controls operating. Footpath reconstruction work is planned on Dawn Place in Kirwee.<br />

Hoskyns Road will be closed from 9am-6pm on Saturday 28 <strong>May</strong> (between Link Drive and Jones<br />

Road) to allow splitter islands to be installed. A detour will operate via Link Drive. This work has been<br />

rescheduled from 21 <strong>May</strong> due to weather conditions. Sewer line installation continues on sections of<br />

Hamptons, Shands, and <strong>Selwyn</strong> Road to the intersection of Springston Rolleston Road. There may be a<br />

reduction down to one lane on these roads with traffic delays possible.<br />

Road widening work is continuing on Jones Road between Weedons Ross Road and the Lyttelton Port<br />

Company until mid-June. The road will remain open, but may be reduced to one lane at times with<br />

traffic delays expected. Maddisons Road is suggested as an alternative route at peak times.<br />

The intersection of High Street and Manse Road in Leeston has reopened.<br />

Christchurch Southern Motorway extension<br />

There will be changes to the traffic setups on both Weedons Ross Road Weedons Road over the next<br />

couple of weeks. Please be alert to changes in the traffic management, follow all on-site signage and<br />

drive to the conditions. Weedons Road from Main South Road through to Levi Road is a one-way<br />

system. Waterholes Road is also a one-way system from Hamptons Road to 833 Waterholes Road<br />

running south towards Robinsons Road with detours in place.<br />

Look out for stock over winter<br />

If you’re moving stock this winter, you’ll need to take care if you’re planning to use local roads.<br />

Any stock moved on State Highways will need a consent from<br />

the NZ Transport Agency. Council consent is needed for roads<br />

with a 70km speed limit and other high volume roads. Cattle<br />

must be moved in mobs smaller than 400 on roads in <strong>Selwyn</strong>.<br />

It’s free to apply for consent from the council but you need to<br />

allow two working days for your application to be processed.<br />

To check the rules visit www.selwyn.govt.nz/stock.<br />

When moving stock high visibility garments, lights and<br />

warning signs are recommended so motorists can see stock.<br />

To improve safety use a direct route and avoid moving stock<br />

at peak driving times. A pilot vehicle is required at the front<br />

and rear of stock at all times to avoid a crash. If you are<br />

approaching animals on the road, slow down and don’t toot<br />

your horn as it may cause the animals to panic.<br />

Aquatic Centre car park extension<br />

Work on an extension to the <strong>Selwyn</strong> Aquatic Centre car park starts<br />

this week.<br />

Most of the current car parking will be available but some areas will<br />

be closed due to construction.<br />

From this date, land between the <strong>Selwyn</strong> Aquatic Centre and<br />

Rolleston College will be used as a temporary car park. During wet<br />

weather the grassed area will not be available for parking.<br />

The temporary parking area will improve public safety and ease<br />

parking constraints over the next few months while construction on<br />

other projects begins. It will be fenced off with plastic safety netting<br />

with adequate spaces along the concrete pathway for customers to<br />

have easy access to the aquatic centre.<br />

Nor West Contracting Ltd, which is working on the car park<br />

extension, will ensure the paddock is returned to its original<br />

condition once the new car park is completed.<br />

Alternative parking will continue to be available opposite the aquatic<br />

centre entrance.<br />

The aquatic centre car park extension is due to be completed by<br />

late July this year. Please take care when driving with the increased<br />

number of contractors and vehicles in the area.<br />

The construction of another car park at Foster Park for park users<br />

will begin soon after the aquatic centre carpark extension has been<br />

completed. This car park will be opposite the centre.<br />

Backyard critters<br />

Speedy little house spider<br />

Mike Bowie is<br />

an ecologist<br />

who specialises<br />

in entomology<br />

(insects<br />

and other<br />

invertebrates).<br />

Each week he introduces<br />

a new species found in his<br />

backyard at Lincoln. His<br />

column aims to raise public<br />

awareness of biodiversity,<br />

the variety of living things<br />

around us<br />

A very distinctive spider in<br />

our backyards or houses is a<br />

small fleet-footed spider with<br />

black and white markings and<br />

orange forelegs.<br />

Until recently, it was known<br />

as supunna picta, but arachnologists<br />

have renamed it nyssus<br />

coloripes.<br />

The species is native to Australia<br />

and was first recorded in<br />

Auckland in 1943, with the first<br />

South Island record in Marlborough<br />

in 1969.<br />

The 7-10mm long spider mimics<br />

other species, such as wasps,<br />

by waving its orange forelegs like<br />

antennae thereby gaining some<br />

protective advantage through its<br />

menacing appearance.<br />

In spite of its orange warning<br />

colour, its bite is not medically<br />

DISTINCTIVE: The fleet-footed spider, also known as nyssus<br />

coloripes prefers dry, sunny and warm spots, which is why you<br />

often see it around the house. ​<br />

significant.<br />

The species does not make a<br />

web, but instead invades webs of<br />

other spiders to eat the captured<br />

insects or host spider.<br />

Its characteristic fast and erratic<br />

movements help it to not<br />

only avoid predators, but also<br />

catch its prey.<br />

It prefers dry, sunny and warm<br />

spots, which is why you often see<br />

it around the house.<br />

Gardening<br />

Essential tips on how to grow<br />

Should you plant on the shortest<br />

day, or is this based on myth<br />

more than merit? Steve Wratten<br />

provides the answers<br />

THERE’S NO doubt about it –<br />

garlic is certainly worth growing in<br />

your vegetable garden.<br />

In fact, our neighbour Sally<br />

plants 52 cloves to produce a head<br />

of the stuff for each week of the<br />

year – sensible Sally.<br />

She probably knows these little<br />

bulbs have antibacterial, antiviral<br />

and anticancer properties and they<br />

even delay the development of<br />

atherosclerosis.<br />

They contain allicin (so do<br />

onions and leeks) that protect<br />

against stomach and colon cancer.<br />

You can always buy the bulbs from<br />

the supermarket, of course, but it<br />

often comes from Mexico or China<br />

and is dry and shrivelled, dusty and<br />

tasteless.<br />

So, let’s explore how to grow<br />

good garlic.<br />

WHERE TO BUY IT?<br />

I get mine from farmers’<br />

markets if possible. It’s likely to be<br />

local and therefore grown under<br />

conditions similar to those of your<br />

garden.<br />

Look for firm heads of the stuff,<br />

ideally with pale lilac-coloured<br />

streaks and fat individual cloves.<br />

Failing that, see if a neighbour had<br />

a good crop last year and can spare<br />

a few that he/she has saved for<br />

planting.<br />

If you do buy some, go to a good<br />

garden centre; some outlets sell<br />

tiny, peeling heads of the stuff,<br />

which can cost $1/bulb, in little<br />

bags of red plastic mesh. Avoid.<br />

You can also plant some of your<br />

own crop from last year.<br />

HEALTHY: When buying your bulbs, look for firm heads with pale<br />

lilac-coloured streaks and fat cloves.<br />

HOW TO STORE IT<br />

I cadge or buy from the<br />

supermarket those gossamer-like<br />

bread bags in which the shop puts<br />

still-warm bread before it goes on<br />

the shelves.<br />

They have hundreds of tiny<br />

perforations to let the steam out<br />

but, when used for garlic storage,<br />

they keep the bulbs aerated (five<br />

or six/bag, I suggest) to minimise<br />

rotting in storage. You could store<br />

them loose in trays in a shed but<br />

the rats get mine. Hang the bags<br />

from the shed roof, away from<br />

direct sunlight, and they stay<br />

aerated and free from rodents until<br />

you need them.<br />

gardening without guesswork<br />

Question:<br />

I have just got some feijoa plants, and I wanted to know how to care<br />

for them with the frosts and snow. Do they need a frost cloth?<br />

Yum! I can smell the delicious<br />

Answer: aroma of feijoa and apple crumble<br />

already! Feijoa plants are quite<br />

hardy, so they do not need to be protected with frost cloth. Our<br />

local expert says that he has not done this before, and his plants<br />

are doing very well. Heavy snow may cause some branches to<br />

break, but the plants will make plenty of new growth in the spring.<br />

If this does happen, they may need a bit of a prune to tidy up any<br />

broken branches but that’s about all that is needed.<br />

good garlic<br />

WHEN TO PLANT IT?<br />

Books and websites keep<br />

copying each other and chant the<br />

meaningless mantra of ‘plant on<br />

the shortest day and harvest on<br />

the longest!’ Don’t they realise<br />

that our garden soil is at its<br />

coldest in July and August? Why<br />

submit rootless and vulnerable<br />

cloves to that challenge by<br />

planting in June?<br />

I wanted to find out what the<br />

professionals do so I phoned<br />

John Murphy of Phoenex Garlic<br />

in Marlborough, for advice. His<br />

first words were “I ignore that<br />

shortest-day advice.” Well, that<br />

was a good start! He plants his in<br />

August or early September – to<br />

get bulbs of an even shape and<br />

good appearance. They may be<br />

a little smaller at harvest but the<br />

market cares more about shape<br />

and appearance.<br />

For home gardeners, he<br />

recommends July. I asked<br />

about varieties – I have never<br />

seen a garlic label giving this<br />

information. John said he<br />

grows ‘Printanor’ (derived from<br />

the French word ‘printemps’,<br />

meaning spring; there’s another<br />

clue as to planting time). He<br />

also grows ‘Presto’, which goes<br />

in around July. In Canterbury,<br />

and further south, late July or<br />

early August would not be too<br />

late.<br />

HOW TO PLANT IT?<br />

I do something which I think<br />

John does not do. I dig a shallow<br />

trench where my garlic is due to<br />

be planted, put some compost in<br />

the trench (I use the cheap stuff<br />

which comes in 25kg bags from<br />

megastores; I paid only $3.80/<br />

bag a few weeks ago), mix the<br />

extracted soil into it within the<br />

trench.<br />

Add some wood ash or bought<br />

potash fertiliser. You will then<br />

have a mound of friable, noncompacted<br />

planting medium in<br />

which to press the cloves so they<br />

are buried at twice their length.<br />

HOW TO GROW IT<br />

First, don’t over-water. If you<br />

do, onion white rot may clobber<br />

your plants. Early yellowing of<br />

the leaves, before the bulbs are<br />

anywhere near the right size, is a<br />

tell-tale sign that something’s up.<br />

Some gardeners dip the cloves<br />

before planting in kitchen bleach<br />

(I suggest a five per cent solution<br />

but it’s a bit of a gamble). This<br />

is supposed to kill the white-rot<br />

spores.<br />

Definitely do not grow your<br />

garlic in the same place as in<br />

previous years – white rot spores<br />

persist in the soil for ages.<br />

So, minimise the threats to<br />

your having a great garlic crop<br />

each year and look forward to<br />

a mildly-garlicky mayonnaise,<br />

stuffed and grilled half-shell<br />

mussels or a garlic chicken<br />

casserole.<br />

WHAT YOU NEED TO<br />

KNOW<br />

When to sow<br />

Plant the single cloves (not<br />

the whole bulb!) in late<br />

winter/early spring.<br />

Where to plant<br />

Full sun, in a slightly raised<br />

bed, for drainage.<br />

Plant spacing<br />

15cm apart.<br />

Time to maturity<br />

Around seven months.<br />

Where to buy<br />

A good garden centre or<br />

a farmers’ market or use a<br />

few good bulbs left over<br />

from the previous season’s<br />

crop.<br />

SYSTEMATIC: Dig a shallow trench and mix in some compost,<br />

along with wood ash or potash fertiliser, before pressing in the<br />

garlic cloves so they are buried at twice their depth.<br />

A solution to<br />

clogged spouting<br />

The Gum Leaf team are likely to be on the job within a week, anywhere<br />

in Canterbury, with installation taking about 1-2 days.<br />

Falling autumn leaves make a pretty<br />

picture. They also clog up spouting, leading<br />

to problems if debris accumulates and<br />

blocks rainwater flowing off the roof, which<br />

can overflow and seep into the house.<br />

“Leaf litter can remain in spouting for<br />

weeks,” says Rohan, owner of Gum Leaf.<br />

As the South Island supplier of Gutter<br />

Guard, Rohan and his team understand the<br />

effect of wet leaves in roof spouting.<br />

“Leaves may be wringing wet after several<br />

weeks of dry weather,” explains Rohan.<br />

“When spouting gets blocked it can rot<br />

and water can seep into the house causing<br />

damage.”<br />

Damage caused in this manner may<br />

not be covered by insurance, if an insurer<br />

deems it is due to a lack of maintenance<br />

that would have prevented such damage; a<br />

requirement of any household policy.<br />

Installing Gutter Guard eliminates<br />

spouting blockages. This expanded steel<br />

mesh product has a cheese grater-like<br />

surface that sees leaf litter and tree debris<br />

slide off.<br />

Produced from Coloursteel, Gutter<br />

Guard will last as long as the roof it is<br />

attached to and can be colour matched so it<br />

blends with the roof, making it aesthetically<br />

pleasing.<br />

Gutter Guard eliminates the need to<br />

clean out spouting and prevents rats and<br />

mice from using your roof as a warm place<br />

to spend winter. They cannot push or eat<br />

their way through Gutter Guard, unlike<br />

some other products on the market.<br />

With no rubbish or vermin in the roof,<br />

your water system is protected from<br />

potential contamination.<br />

Gutter Guard strengthens and protects<br />

spouting from the weight of snow, which<br />

can do serious damage. It also prevents<br />

snow and hail from causing a blockage or<br />

valley, which if followed by rain could lead<br />

to extensive flooding inside a roof.<br />

Gum Leaf installs Gutter Guard<br />

and supply for do-it-yourself, with an<br />

installation video on-line at http://gumleaf.<br />

co.nz.<br />

Rohan is available Monday-Saturday,<br />

on 0800 486 532 or by email: rohan@<br />

gumleaf.co.nz. If he is does not answer,<br />

leave a message. He will: call back<br />

promptly, visit within a day, provide<br />

free no obligation advice, and quote<br />

HOME PROFESSIONALS<br />

SELWYN TIMES<br />

Home improvements made easy<br />

• Carpentry work • Plastering • Painting • Fitting of showers<br />

• Laying of tiles • Decks • Pergolas • Walls • Plus more!<br />

When we love our home and its locale<br />

yet it is just not big enough, adding an<br />

extension or changing its footprint can<br />

solve the problem. Renovating the home<br />

can also give it a new look without the price<br />

tag of a new build while adding value to the<br />

property.<br />

KTM Builders Limited specialise in home<br />

improvements. With over sixteen years’<br />

residential building experience, owner and<br />

operator of the company, Keith Moore has<br />

considerable knowledge in the industry.<br />

Keith has completed many renovations,<br />

transforming older houses into modern,<br />

functional homes. He has lots of ideas and<br />

can suggest ways to make the most of your<br />

floor area, where best to extend, how rooms<br />

can be more functional, and how outdoor<br />

areas can be transformed to appealing,<br />

practical settings.<br />

Keith builds decks, pergolas and walls<br />

that add character while providing sun<br />

shade and shelter from the wind.<br />

Whether taking out or moving a wall;<br />

building a new kitchen or extending a<br />

bedroom or lounge; or updating a kitchen<br />

or bathroom, Keith can do the job. He has<br />

renovated many little rooms and kitchens,<br />

working with designers, directing clients to<br />

affordable kitchen manufacturers, or taking<br />

care of the whole job himself.<br />

As a licensed building practitioner and<br />

Site Safe trained registered builder, Keith<br />

will manage each stage of a project or work<br />

with an appointed project consultant.<br />

KTM Builders Limited is a one-stop<br />

build shop, from the carpentry work to<br />

the plastering, painting, fitting of showers<br />

and laying of tiles. Less sub-contractors<br />

on the job translates to a faster completion<br />

while their own electrical and plumbing<br />

contractors will be on the job in a timely<br />

manner.<br />

Keith and wife, Trish are also active<br />

community members having trained four<br />

young apprentices in the district who<br />

are now carpenters and assisting and<br />

sponsoring Southbridge’s Under-Sevens<br />

rugby team.<br />

If you want advice on how to transform<br />

your home or a competitive quote, give<br />

HOME PROFESSIONALS<br />

Create your own<br />

amazing<br />

outdoor space<br />

Amazing outdoor spaces are possible<br />

with any section size and The Outdoor<br />

Space team have constructed some great<br />

features.<br />

These include a Schist stone gateway<br />

and entrance pillars, with decking<br />

that modernised an older home, and<br />

constructing decks and pergolas, some with<br />

a roof to keep the weather out. One pergola<br />

was an extension of a carport that doubled<br />

as a covered barbeque area, effectively<br />

extending the outdoor living space on a<br />

smaller block of land.<br />

“We work with a variety of mediums<br />

including stone, bricks and timber, as<br />

well as completing soft landscaping, from<br />

laying lawns to planting out,” advises Aaron<br />

Bartlett who with wife, Vicky owns and<br />

operates The Outdoor Space.<br />

Aaron prefers chunky Macrocarpa for<br />

pergolas as it holds its shape better than<br />

pine. He says that laminate timber also<br />

works well. It looks good stained or has<br />

a fresh look when painted to match the<br />

house colours.<br />

Aaron says Kwila timber decks are very<br />

popular, with stainless steel screws used<br />

to fix the planks for a better finish. They<br />

have also constructed Kwila planter boxes<br />

around several decks, some with seating on<br />

the top.<br />

A couple of interesting creations by The<br />

Outdoor Space have been a recycled red<br />

brick wall and a fence from an old house<br />

wall that incorporated a rustic window.<br />

“I really enjoy creating unique and<br />

interesting structures,” says Aaron.<br />

He likes to sit down with clients to discuss<br />

options for their outdoors, bringing their<br />

dreams and ideas to reality; completing<br />

part of all of job to a client’s budget and<br />

timeline, even if it means popping back<br />

when required, until the landscaping vision<br />

is complete.<br />

With lawn sowing season over until<br />

spring, the team are available to lay ready<br />

lawn for those wanting to avoid the<br />

mud over the cooler months. If wanting<br />

assistance with a seeded lawn in spring,<br />

now is also the time to book in, so The<br />

Outdoor Space will have it ready to walk on<br />

by Christmas.<br />

District Arts Co-Ordinator<br />

Located to the south of Christchurch, the <strong>Selwyn</strong><br />

District is the fastest growing community in New<br />

Zealand. We have a fantastic quality of life, great<br />

communities and thriving businesses. It is a great<br />

place to live, work and play. The <strong>Selwyn</strong> District<br />

Council works actively with our residents to<br />

maintain and enhance these enduring qualities,<br />

and to plan for our promising future.<br />

This role is an amazing opportunity for someone<br />

who is passionate about arts and culture as a<br />

resource for developing community wellbeing.<br />

As the District Arts Co-ordinator you will be<br />

responsible for ensuring that arts and culture are<br />

well resourced, encouraged, promoted and valued<br />

as an integral part of the <strong>Selwyn</strong> District. This will<br />

be through encouraging greater community<br />

participation and awareness of arts and culture,<br />

providing opportunities for the <strong>Selwyn</strong> arts sector<br />

to network and develop, offering support and<br />

advice to artists and developing key partnerships<br />

with local, regional and national arts organisations.<br />

The successful candidate will have proven<br />

experience in the co-ordination / promotion of arts<br />

and cultural activities or a relevant tertiary<br />

qualification, along with extensive project<br />

management experience and the ability to build<br />

strong relationships within the industry.<br />

REAA - Understanding real estate jargon<br />

Every industry is full of jargon and<br />

buzzwords that make no sense to anyone<br />

who’s not part of the club. Real estate is no<br />

different, which means it can be hard to get<br />

up to speed. Here’s a handy guide to some<br />

of the most common terms you’ll come<br />

across when buying or selling property.<br />

Agency agreement: If you are using<br />

a licensed real estate agent to sell your<br />

property, you’ll need to sign one of these<br />

agreements - it sets out what the agent will<br />

do and what they will be paid. Remember<br />

you can negotiate the conditions, such as<br />

who pays for marketing and how much<br />

the commission is. Make sure you get<br />

legal advice before you sign, because it’s a<br />

binding document.<br />

BEO or BBO: This stands for ‘Buyer<br />

Enquiry Over’ or ‘Buyer Budget Over’,<br />

which means that price listed on the<br />

advertisement indicates the minimum that<br />

the seller will accept. The seller actually<br />

needs to give serious consideration to any<br />

offer over the BEO, so this figure needs to<br />

be selected carefully.<br />

Deadline Sale or Deadline Private<br />

Treaty: In this kind of sale, a property<br />

is marketed for a set period (with an<br />

advertised end date). The seller can choose<br />

to accept an offer at any stage during the<br />

listing period though it may be stated<br />

in the advertising that ‘no offer will be<br />

accepted prior’. Check the fine print.<br />

LIM: This stands for Land Information<br />

Memorandum, which contains everything<br />

that the local council knows about the<br />

property, such as any issues with drainage<br />

and plumbing, erosion or permits. It will<br />

help you identify if any additions haven’t<br />

got the right consent. A LIM will also<br />

record any unpaid rates.<br />

Sale and purchase agreement: This<br />

is a legally binding contract between<br />

the buyer and seller for the purchase/<br />

sale of a property. It provides certainty<br />

to both parties and it sets out in writing<br />

all the agreed terms and conditions. It’s<br />

essential to get legal advice before you<br />

sign an agreement – and that you read and<br />

understand what it means.<br />

Settlement: This is the end goal in a<br />

property transaction, when the sale and<br />

purchase is completed by the exchange of<br />

property and payment. Settlement occurs<br />

when the seller receives the money for the<br />

sale – the buyer will not receive the keys<br />

until this happens.<br />

RV: This stands for ‘Rateable Value’ – this<br />

is a value used to calculate local body rates.<br />

It should not be assumed to be a market<br />

value for a property when it is for sale as<br />

the rating valuation may be a number of<br />

years old. It is also not responsive to local<br />

market fluctuations and may not reflect<br />

any recent renovations to a property. This<br />

was formerly known as ‘Government<br />

Value’, or GV.<br />

Tender: If a property is for sale by<br />

tender, prospective buyers must submit<br />

confidential written offers by a set date.<br />

Usually there is no minimum price, but<br />

properties are often listed with a BEO or<br />

BBO price. The seller can then choose the<br />

offer that is most acceptable to them, based<br />

on the price and any attached conditions.<br />

The most attractive tender is likely to be<br />

one that combines a good price with few<br />

conditions. Sellers are allowed to negotiate<br />

with any one or more of the tenderers<br />

received after tenders close.<br />

Your guide to Show Homes & New Sections<br />

in the <strong>Selwyn</strong> District<br />

Garages are not all equal<br />

Not all garages are equal. Smaller<br />

townhouses may have a single garage<br />

whereas larger homes are more likely<br />

to have double, triple or even four-car<br />

garaging.<br />

Having more garaging has been more<br />

popular in recent times. It can add an ‘x’<br />

factor leading to a speedier house sale and<br />

potential for a higher selling price.<br />

However, how much garage space do<br />

you really need?<br />

Before committing to an even larger<br />

home, take time to consider the purpose of<br />

your garage. This may avoid the situation<br />

where one or more vehicles is parked up in<br />

the driveway due to there being no room<br />

in the garage after work bench, garden<br />

equipment, bicycles and other items are<br />

packed in.<br />

An outside shed may take out some<br />

clutter, as will moving on unused<br />

possessions, with the result that a standard<br />

double garage may be sufficient.<br />

While a larger garage will add square<br />

metres, extra garage space costs less than<br />

in other areas of a home because there are<br />

fewer features.<br />

At planning stage, map out what will<br />

be stored in the garage. Take account<br />

of the space needed for motor vehicles,<br />

bikes, work bench, tools and gardening<br />

implements, if these will be kept in the<br />

garage.<br />

List all the items, measuring each to<br />

assess how they will fit into the garage.<br />

Allow space for moving around and<br />

getting into and out of the cars parked in<br />

the garage, once bikes, ladders and the like<br />

are stacked against the walls.<br />

Attic trusses with a pull down ladder<br />

could be included; a great way to gain<br />

extra storage space for less used items.<br />

Other features that will reduce clutter<br />

may include built-in shelving and<br />

storage cupboards, hanging devices like<br />

hammocks suspended from the roof,<br />

and bike hooks. These can make a huge<br />

difference to the spaciousness of this very<br />

practical part of the house.<br />

Thinking of the garage doors themselves,<br />

these can be custom made to fit. While<br />

two or three single doors may be attractive<br />

for accessing a larger garage, weigh up<br />

garage door width and their practicality<br />

should a larger vehicle need to be stored in<br />

the garage at any time.<br />

Including one or more windows will<br />

allow natural light without the need to<br />

open the garage door. The glass can be<br />

frosted for privacy while a glass side<br />

or back door will provide access to the<br />

backyard. You might also include a<br />

garage door through to the backyard.<br />

Alternatively, a garage, carport, or parking<br />

space down the side may provide storage<br />

for a caravan, motorhome or boat and<br />

access the yard.<br />

Ensuring sufficient off-street parking<br />

space out front is also often overlooked<br />

and worth the investment.<br />

Single doors into a larger garage are popular.<br />

Three and four car garaging is popular.<br />

Garage doors can be<br />

custom made to fit a<br />

particular space.<br />

Extra garage space<br />

costs less than other<br />

parts of a home.<br />

Buying a property at auction<br />

If you’re keen on a property that’s going<br />

to auction, preparation is everything. A<br />

successful bid means you are immediately<br />

committed to buy the property; you cannot<br />

seek legal advice, arrange finance or even<br />

get the property valued or inspected when<br />

the auction is over.<br />

That means you need to do all your due<br />

diligence in advance of auction day. Before<br />

the auction (usually after you’ve viewed the<br />

property), the real estate agent working for<br />

the seller should provide you with a copy<br />

of the terms and Contract of Sale, which<br />

sets out what chattels will be included with<br />

the property. This document will also tell<br />

you the amount of the deposit to be paid<br />

by the successful bidder, and when the<br />

balance of the payment must be made.<br />

These documents should be checked by<br />

your lawyer.<br />

You should consider having the property<br />

checked (preferably by a qualified inspector<br />

who has professional indemnity insurance<br />

and carries out their work in accordance<br />

with the New Zealand Property Inspection<br />

Standards and obtain an up-to-date Land<br />

Information Memorandum (LIM) from<br />

the local council. It’s a good idea to get a<br />

valuation of the property, especially as<br />

you are likely to require one if you need a<br />

loan. Some websites provide free estimated<br />

market values that may be useful.<br />

There’s a lot to take in at an auction and<br />

it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. If you can,<br />

go along to one as an observer to see how<br />

the process works before you actually want<br />

to buy. Remember that the auctioneer is<br />

working for the seller and they want to get<br />

the highest price possible for the property.<br />

At an auction, the auctioneer will read the terms and<br />

conditions of the sale aloud and announce if a reserve<br />

price has been set. They must also state whether the seller<br />

has reserved the right to bid during the auction. This is<br />

called ‘vendor bidding’ and it is only allowed under strict<br />

circumstances, such as when the property being auctioned<br />

has a reserve price; when the reserve price has not yet been<br />

met; and the auctioneer has made it clear that the bid being<br />

made is a vendor bid. They must do this by saying, ‘this is a<br />

vendor bid’ rather than using any jargon.<br />

Auctioneers sometimes use vendor bids as a way to<br />

start off the bidding, or to move the bidding towards the<br />

reserve price. Vendor bids can be made by the auctioneer,<br />

or another person working on behalf of<br />

the seller, such as a real estate agent. An<br />

auctioneer can also use a pre-auction offer<br />

to start the bidding.<br />

The auction continues until there is only<br />

one bidder left. At that stage, if the reserve<br />

price is reached or beaten, the highest<br />

bidder will be the successful buyer. If the<br />

reserve price isn’t reached, the seller can tell<br />

the auctioneer to stop the auction without<br />

selling the property.<br />

If the auction is stopped without a sale, the<br />

highest bidder may have the opportunity to<br />

negotiate with the seller (via their agent)<br />

after the auction. If this happens, the terms<br />

and conditions of the auction no longer<br />

apply and you can negotiate new ones.<br />

Show homes<br />

the ultimate way to shop around<br />

Across the selwyn district, we are blessed with an<br />

extensive array of very good quality show homes.<br />

Building companies build show homes<br />

to demonstrate their workmanship,<br />

display innovative design ideas and<br />

present a snapshot into a new and<br />

luxurious lifestyle, featuring all the<br />

latest in materials, fittings and fixtures.<br />

A show home can inspire you in a way<br />

nothing else can. You can absorb the<br />

ambiance they present and admire the<br />

innovative techniques, new materials<br />

and technology.<br />

You can ask questions, take notes<br />

and compare. You can see at a glance<br />

features you would love to emulate or<br />

would avoid when building your home.<br />

Best of all, you ;will see the building<br />

companies’ attention to detail.<br />

Show homes are the perfect way to get<br />

a good idea of pricing, discover good<br />

quality and value, learn about superior<br />

use of space, future-proofing, ongoing<br />

maintenance and long-term returns.<br />

So what are you waiting for? Check<br />

out our maps, grab a notepad and<br />

pencil and begin the exciting project of<br />

building your own home.<br />
