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 />
A quick U-turn, flashing lights,<br />
and a dangerous unguided missile<br />
was neutralised.<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 />

working party will help<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 />
council forestry block.<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 />

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 />

Phillipson and<br />
Natalie Lilley. (Front<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 />

REQUEST FOR LAND<br />
The Darfield Plunket Toy Library<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 />

Lake Ellesmere<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 />

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 />

leave a message. He will: call back<br />
promptly, visit within a day, provide<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 />

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 />

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 />

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 />

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 />
