its new building at the corner of
Anzac Drive and Wainoni Rd
on Thursday.
It is one of seven fire stations
to be built post -earthquake as
part of a $50 million project
announced under the National
Government.
Senior station officer Shane
O’Brien said the Anzac Fire
Station will house the first
“composite” station in the city,
with both a 24/7 career crew
and volunteer brigade.
Following the earthquakes, a

Rawhiti
Domain
sports
facility
goes to
hearing
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding
A 10-YEAR plan to open a $2.2
million sports facility in New
Brighton has taken a major step
forward.
A city council hearings panel
was scheduled to meet yesterday
which could give the green light
for the Eastern Community
Sports and Recreation Inc to
lease the land it needs in Rawhiti
Domain for the facility.
But a stumbling block to work
starting continues to be money.
The group has raised $675,000
for the project. Chairman Peter
Burley said yesterday he hoped
the project would start early next
year and would look how the
shortfall could be made up.
It plans to relay the current
tennis and netball courts with
astro-turf and a put a purposebuilt
canopy over them. The
canopy set to cost $1.3 million.
Mr Burley said he would be
“pretty stunned” if the hearing
panel did anything other than
support the facility.

IT LOOKS like there is overwhelming
support for the new sports facility in
Rawhiti Doman (see page 1).
The bulk of the submissions were in
favour.
And why would’t there be. The sports
complex is a no-brainer.
The project has been 10 years in the making and yesterday a
hearings panel was scheduled to meet (it was after our deadline)
to give the thumbs up or thumbs down for land to be leased for
the project.
But a stumbling continues to be money.
The Eastern Community Sports and Recreation Inc has raised
only a third of the $2.2 million they need.
They have an ambitous plan to start work early next year. Lets
hope it happens.

Landmark could be floodlit
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding
THE ICONIC New Brighton clock
tower could be floodlit.
The city council is investigating
the possibility of illuminating the
historical landmark built in the
1930s.
The idea was suggested at a

tower “some life in

“Lighting can just enliven and

The city council started work on

completed by September.
City council staff are also following
up on controlling weeds

Plans to rebuild yacht club revealed
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding
PLANS FOR the long-awaited
rebuild of the Pleasant Point
Yacht Club have been revealed.
A new club house, toilets,
changing rooms, start box, committee
room and general storage
area will be included in the
buildings.
Two relocatable classrooms the
club purchased from Canterbury
University will be converted into
the facilities.
It is estimated to cost about
$600,000 which the club has
been fundraising for since 2012.
A new boat shed is also in the
plan, but the club is prioritising
the other two buildings and will
reassess how much additional
money may need to be raised in
the future.
The club has been without
proper facilities for more than
seven years after its old building
at Rat Island was destroyed in
the earthquakes.
In the interim, it has been
using five shipping containers as
makeshift facilities at South New
Brighton Park.
Club commodore Alastair
Burgess said once the buildings
are completed it will be a far

more attractive proposition for
the public than going to a yacht

The classrooms are due to arrive
at South New Brighton Park
at the end of August after the
foundations have been laid.
Sewerage, power and water
services have been installed and
are ready to be connected to the
classrooms when they arrive.
Yacht club committee
member Dan O’Sullivan said it
will be a luxury to have electricity
after going without for so
long.
The road to the
club’s rebuild has
been a long one,
with its temporary
facilities targeted
by a suspected arson
attack in 2016.
The club’s

containers have
also had several

Mr O’Sullivan said the locks
were alarmed and nothing was

were left behind.
He said while the club has
“beefed-up” its security, it would
like members of the public to
keep an eye out for suspicious
activity.

Volunteers earn awards
PROVIDING MUCH needed
services to the community has
led to several residents and
organisations being recognised
for their volunteer work in the
eastern suburbs.
They were presented at the
Volunteer Canterbury volunteer
recognition awards last night.
Avebury House Community
Trust’s Andrea Grieve, of Richmond;
the Linwood Avenue
Corner Trust; Shirley Community
Trust’s Lynley Teague; The
Champion Centre’s Margaret Giertz,
of Burwood; and the Delta
Community Support Trust’s van
driving team in Richmond were
recognised.
The recipients were nominated
for the awards by a range of community
not-for-profit organisations.
A founding member in 2002,
Ms Grieve’s commitment to
Avebury House Community
Trust remains. She is involved
with a comprehensive stock-take
and cataloguing of the contents
of Avebury House’s history
room, ensuring the community
of Richmond’s past is preserved
for future generations.
The Delta Community Support
Trust van driving team was
recognised for ensuring rescued
food and bread is picked up, veggie
packs are delivered around
the city, and the vehicles are
always ready to go.
The Linwood Avenue Corner
Trust was described as developing
a “philosophy based on the
privilege of service”. It provides
free programmes to improve
health and provide companionship
for the lonely, isolated and
vulnerable.
Mrs Teague has been volunteering
at the Nail Care Clinic
which is a meeting place for
older people and those with disabilities.
Mrs Giertz volunteers her time
to care for pre-school siblings of
children who attend early intervention
sessions at The Champion
Centre. She was described
in her nomination as providing
“many hours of enjoyment”.
The awards are held annually
as part of National Volunteer
Week.
Bright new banners for Marian
Brightly coloured new banners can now be found at Marian
College. They include Maori kowhaiwhai and mamanu
Samoa versions of the Marian College logo. They were
designed by former student Naisina Lui, who is studying to
become a flight attendant. The signs were made by Simply
Signs and funded by the Marian Foundation.

The New Brighton Volunteer
Brigade continued to operate
out of their original premises on
Hawke St.
“We have been sharing a site,
not necessarily a building and
now we have all come together as

Mr O’Brien said.
He said in a major event
the station is built to be self -

“I can’t speak highly enough of

A public open day for the new

next few weeks.
The station will house two
fire engine pumps, two support
vehicles to act as “troop carriers”
and a four -wheel-drive rural unit

inaccessible areas.
The building itself has LED

MORE THAN 500 people
calling for safety improvements
at a “dangerous” pedestrian
crossing on Stanmore Rd could
now lose it all together.
The city council has
recommended the crossing be
removed after determining it is
“not the correct type of facility”
for the location.
But city council transport
operations manager Steffan
Thomas said there are no firm
proposals to remove the zebra
crossing.
It comes as more than
500 signatures collected by
Richmond resident Gillian
Sheard was presented to the city
council infrastructure, transport
and environment committee on
Wednesday.
Ms Sheard was lobbying for
the pedestrian crossing to either
be raised or have traffic lights
placed at the Stanmore Rd/
Avalon St corner.
She also wanted the speed
on Stanmore Rd reduced from
50km/h to 30km/h.
However, a city council report
said changes to the crossing
do not rank highly against
competing priorities for limited
funds.
It said council staff have
investigated safety concerns
and the volume of pedestrians
observed is “well below the
required warrant to install a new
zebra crossing.”
Staff surveyed people using
the zebra crossing in August
with the highest observed
usage being 14 pedestrians per
hour.
The owner of Stanmore Rd’s
The Sideline Sports Bar, Nikki
Bradley, accused the city council
of trying to find a cheap way to
solve the problem.
It is “absolutely ridiculous,” she
said.
“The first death will be on
their hands . . . people are still
going to have to cross that road
and if there is not going to be a
crossing at all there is going
to be accidents galore,” she
said.
Miss Bradley said you don’t
solve a problem by “wiping it
out” and the recommendation
makes her “quite angry.”
She said near misses happen
“basically every day.”
But Richmond Residents
and Business Association
chairwoman Hayley Guglietta
said the petition has had the
opposite affect.
She said it will annoy a lot of
people including herself if the
crossing is taken away because
she lives close by and it will be
an “inconvenience.”

Five submissions indicated

no longer take the bus to New

new proposed route, I am told
I will have to catch the 60 bus
to the corner of Rookwood and
Bower Aves, get off the bus and
walk to QE II, and catch the 80
from there, which will no doubt
take me 40-50min to get to New
Brighton and the same back with
shopping. Not a good service.
Especially as there is a call for
people to support the shops in
New Brighton. It will also be
difficult for young mums with
prams and children.

article about the ongoing
roadworks at North Avon
Rd which continue to put
pressure on Richmond
businesses
Mr Burley said the state of the
courts was “not that bad”, but the
organisation wants a better quality
facility.
He said the only “caveat” is
Jane Ross – Thank you for
your article about Richmond
Village. Those businesses have
tried hard to keep the village
feel and it seems with no
compensation for their business
disruption. As the long-time
butcher who closed last time
said, they still had to pay their
full rent with no customers. The
city council has allowed the
works to proceed at the least cost
to it. The businesses definitely
should have been compensated.
The disruption has happened
repeatedly and for too long each
time. Protecting the livelihoods
of people after the earthquake is
just as important as repairing the
infrastructure.

negative carbon environmental

City in a very positive vein.
It is imperative therefore that
this concept is promoted at every
juncture. Cycleways, improved
footpaths and pedestrian
crossings, while commendable,
are minimal and leave a void in
the overall status of required
cycleway upgrades along Dyers
Rd.
Traffic volume, inclusive of
trailers with often insecure loads,
is a factor that should have been
considered with the sanctioning
of the 2017 $3.2 million Dyers
Rd widening. It should also
have been inclusive of advanced,
separate cycleways, a sentiment
reiterated by city councillor Yani
Johanson.
Within this context,
submissions made by cyclists to
the Long Term Plan pertaining
to this issue must be scrutinised
and appraised.
The original plans by NZTA
opposing Dyers Rd cycle lanes
should be redressed, reviewed
and overturned.
This is paramount for Dyers
Rd to become an integral part
of the New Brighton to Sumner
cycle route along the Coastal

Future criteria for NZTA

Richmond to get new
housing complex
• By Georgia O’Connor-
Harding
CONSTRUCTION is
under way for a new
housing complex in
Richmond.
Housing New Zealand is
building a 23-unit, three -
level complex to help meet
the one and two-bedroom
state housing demand
across the city.
The development, to
be located at Eveleyn
Couzins Pl, will comprise
of 23 one -bedroom
units on the side of the
site, which is due for
completion next month.
The other development
includes 14 two-bedroom
units across two storeys
and will be completed in
October.

• By Georgia O’Connor-

A PLAN to market
Stanmore Rd’s restaurants
and takeaways as an
international smorgasbord
could be the solution to
Richmond’s commercial
woes.
Resident Joanna Gould
has formed an idea to promote
Stanmore Rd’s food
businesses under a new
brand called Kai Town
which she hopes will create
an identity for the area.
She is hoping it will
address the number of
untenanted commercial
properties in the area. It
comes as the road works at
North Avon Rd continue
to put pressure on Richmond
businesses.
Mrs Gould said the
former Movieman Video
Shop, the Uniform Centre
and former Richmond
Electrical shop were three
obvious places where there
could be restaurants.
DEVELOPMENT: Housing New Zealand is
developing a 23 unit, three- level complex to be
located on Eveleyn Couzins Pl.
area manager Fraser
Benson said the new
warm, dry homes will
replace the six older homes
previously located on the
site.
“We expect a mix of
singles, couples and
families will live in this
complex,” he said.
Stanmore Rd has a
wide range of food outlets,
including Chillax Cafe &
Restaurant, Taj of India,
North Avon Fish Fry
and the Persian Kitchen.
Mrs Gould is planning to
discuss her ideas with the
newly-formed Richmond
Residents and Business
Association to get business
owners on board.
She will also consider
presenting her ideas to
the Linwood-Central-
Heathcote Community
Board. The Kai Town idea
was prompted by her interest
in Richmond’s Maori
and British heritage.
She said it was about understanding
the area’s history
before learning about
the different nationalities
coming to live and work in
the area.
“There is more to Richmond
Village than just the
shops on Stanmore Rd; we
need help to tell our story,”
Mrs Gould said.
She is also calling for a

Idea to make Stanmore Rd
an international smorgasbord
Richmond Village website
and a master plan similar
to the Edgeware Village
master plan.
She suggested the plan
could include street lighting
with colourful flags of
the different nationalities
living in the community,
an outdoor seating/picnic
space and a “walkable
centre”.
City councillor Deon
Swiggs said he loves the
ideas and would welcome
Mrs Gould to present
them at the community
board.
“I am fully supportive
. . . but it is going to be
tricky because, economically,
there are some challenges,”
he said.
Richmond Residents
and Business Association
chairwoman Hayley
Guglietta said it is one of
many good ideas coming
from the community. The
association is interested in
establishing a heritage trail
for the area.

FOCUS ON HEALTH
Supporting Your
Bowel & Digestive
Function Helps
Prevent Disease
It is most important to keep the whole
digestive & elimination systems of the
body working efficiently. Otherwise toxins
that have not been eliminated set the stage
for disease. Many diseases have been linked
with micro-organisms (virus) or a bacterial
component. Generally these microorganisms
or bacteria can only survive
due to the fact that the environment they
are in is suitable for their survival. Non
eliminated toxins are probably one of the
main causative factors for their survival.
We know that when the digestive system
& bowel function are poor we have many
more health problems. These include
arthritis, digestive problems like reflux &
stomach pain, bladder infections, chronic
skin conditions such as eczema, psoriasis &
rashes, poor eyesight, pain & inflammation,
tumors & a weakened immune system just
to name a few.
Nature’s Sunshine LBS II contains a
highly effective blend of natural herbs to
support the whole digestive system & it is
especially effective at cleansing the lower
bowel & intestinal tract. It is commonly
used for arthritis, constipation, diarrhea,
digestive problems, dry stool, fever, colds &
influenza, flatulence, gallstones, gout, skin
conditions like eczema & psoriasis, urinary
infections, liver dysfunction, Candida,
weakened immune function & for people
who want to keep their health as good as
possible.
The herbs in LBS II help stimulate the
production of digestive fluids & bile for
efficient digestion. This alone may help
prevent many diseases as a properly working
digestive system will itself neutralise many
disease causing organisms before they
have a chance to cause any problems. LBS
II also stimulates peristaltic action of the
colon effectively cleansing the colon of any
accumulated build-ups of waste material. It
also relaxes abdominal cramping & spasms,
enhances liver function, purifies the blood,
neutralizes acidic conditions, helps destroy
intestinal parasites & worms, & fights
infection.
Keeping your digestive system & bowels
functioning efficiently is definitely &
important step in obtaining & maintaining
good long term health.

1 in 2 people
deficient in B12
Emerging research has shown as many as 50% of older adults
& as many as 25% of younger adults are deficient in vitamin B12.
Scientists at Rush University Medical Center found those most
deficient in vitamin B12 to have the smallest brain mass & the lowest
scores on tests measuring short-term memory, concentration &
brain performance. Another study showed that older people with
higher levels of B12 in their blood have bigger, healthier brains &
score higher on cognitive tests than those with lower levels. Yet
another recent landmark study showed that B12 supplementation
slows the accelerated rate of brain shrinkage & declining cognitive
function. B12 is essential for energy production, cell health,
regulation of mood & sleep cycles, nerve health & repair, &
prevention of homocysteine a serious cardiovascular risk factor
that is known to cause damage & plaque in the blood vessels. It can
also increase the chances of a stroke. Harvard researchers found a
34% decrease risk of vision loss in a study of participants aged 40+
who supplemented with B12. Another study linked a higher risk
of hearing loss in subjects in their 60’s who were low in B12.
The reason so many people lack B12 appears to be our body’s
ability to absorb it declining with age as the digestive system
becomes less efficient. Anti-reflux medication & other drugs
further reduce B12 absorption. The good news is B12 in
the form of Methylcobalamin
sublingual tablets that are
dissolved in the
mouth & thru
bypassing the
digestive tract have
been shown to
effectively raise B12
levels in the body.

Fresh air
in your home
Get the right
choice for winter
All houses require air exchange in order
to stay fresh and dry. No one likes to live
in a stuffy, smelly, damp home. Indoor air
quality is important for the health of the
occupants. Houses can have many sources of
contaminants, such as bathrooms, kitchens,
pets, smokers, and even furnishings. Opening
the windows can refresh the air, but is not
always an option for security reasons and can
also lead to heat energy being lost to outside.
Although older houses have small gaps
around windows and doors, you want to be
able to control the flow of air. You don’t want
air coming in to the bathroom or kitchen and
pushing the soiled air around the house. It
is better to expel the air out of kitchens and
bathrooms to outside. This will draw air in
from the rest of the house to replace the air that
has been removed.
Modern houses are very airtight and
theoretically require a source of incoming air
to allow kitchen and bathroom extraction to
work optimally. Ventilation systems should be
low air velocity and low air pressure so as not
to cause draughts.
There are two main types of ventilation
system: Positive pressure and Balanced
pressure. Positive pressure systems, such as the
Dry-Matic, bring filtered, warmed attic air into
the house, which then percolates through the
rooms, pushing the damper stale air out.
Balanced pressure systems bring in a
similar amount of air to the amount they
exhaust. Balanced pressure systems with Heat
Exchange, such as the HEX390, use the heat
of the outgoing air to warm the incoming
air from outside. These are the most energy
efficient systems available, as they recover up
to 80% of the energy in the air, rather than
losing it to outside. Heat exchangers work just
as well cooling incoming air when the house is
cooled in summer.
The NZ building code has recommended
air exchange rates for houses. To ascertain
the required airflow for your home, please
contact Smooth-Air on 0800 SMOOTH
(0800 766 684), who will also be able to
recommend a solution if your ventilation
doesn’t yet meet the New Zealand standard.
Every year around about
now people start to plan
ahead for their winter
heating needs. High on
most people’s ‘must have’
list is a Heat Pump. They
have naturally become
extremely popular because
of their cheap heat and
“touch of a button”
convenience.
Heat pumps are
however a significant,
long term investment, so
it’s important to make the
right choice.
New Zealand properties tend to be of
unique design and have many features that
greatly affect their heating requirements.
Factors such as location, orientation to
the sun, room volume, heat loss surface
area, and room air flow characteristics, etc.
all play a major role. This means that the
heat pump that is right for your friend or
neighbour is not necessarily right for you.
Add to that the fact that all manufacturers
claim to have the best, quietest, most energy
efficient, and have a multitude of constantly
updating models; finding out which heat
pump is best is not so straightforward.
Getting the right heat pump for your
home is a combination of accurate
calculation of the space to be heated, taking
into account all property characteristic,
plus an up to date knowledge of the
performance specifications of all makes
and models available.
This is where the local company Heat
Pump Guys can help. They are fully
independent heat pump specialists, and are
accredited agents for all top brands. They
offer an obligation-free home survey and
completely unbiased advice on which heat
pump is best for you.
So if you are considering getting a
heat pump this year, give them a call on

HOME & HEATING
Choosing the right heat
pump for your home
Whether it be a new build, or a retrofit,
most homes include at least one heat pump,
if not a whole heating solution. They can
provide cheap, clean heat and are much
more convenient than a log burner as you
just need to press a button. But how do you
decide what is best? Choosing the right
sized heat pump is key to ensuring optimum
comfort levels. Every situation varies and
it is therefore important to get professional
advice from heat pump experts.
The range varies from wall mounted high
walls, floor mounted systems, multi systems,
ceiling cassettes, right through to ducted
central heating systems allowing you to have
a very discreet way of heating your whole
home to a constant temperature
throughout.
Firstly, you must select a heat
pump that is suitable for the size
of the space you wish to heat.
Usually a site visit is the best
way to ascertain this. Not only
is the size of the area taken into
consideration but also, insulation,
building orientation, windows
and ceiling space. There are a wide
range of heat pumps available
with different heating outputs
so it is important to select the
correct size for your requirements
that will handle the job but not be
unnecessarily overpowered.
Secondly, the location of your heat
pump is also extremely important. The
cheapest installation is a back to back where
the outdoor unit is positioned directly
behind the indoor unit however this is
not necessarily always the best option. It is
vital that the indoor unit is positioned in a
place that will not be constantly blowing on
you. Also important, is the location of the
outdoor unit. Most people do not want their
outdoor unit sitting directly in their outdoor
entertaining area or right outside their
bedroom window.
Choose a brand you can trust. Many
brands have come and gone over the years
but there are a number of manufacturers
who provide reputable and reliable products.
All brands vary in their energy efficiency,
quietness of systems and price, so it depends
on your application as to which will be most
suitable. Major brands such as Panasonic,
Fujitsu, Mitsubishi, Daikin, Toshiba and
Hitachi are all reliable brands backed up by
good technical after sales service.
Ensure your heat pump is installed by an
accredited installer. This will not only ensure
correct installation of your heat pump, but
also validate the manufacturers warranty.
Other things to consider when choosing
a heat pump are time clocks, ease of use of
the remote controllers, air filtration and also
wifi capabilities.
Heating is a major investment
in your home and it is vital to get
the right advice.
Enviro Master Ltd specialise
in the supply, installation and
servicing of all major brands
of heat pumps. Our salesmen

quality, unbiased advice as to
which system will suit your
application the best. Enviro

Had the money for central heating.
→ Hardest decision – forgoing a bath. Switching
Beaven’s ShadowClad spec for cedar.

home: glass, cedar, plywood, steel, concrete

T
he firs time I woke up with a cold nose in my brand
new home, I wa shocked. How could this be? The
cool, calm, collected one and I had planned for our
home to be well insulated against Canterbury’s
cold winters. Turns out, not well enough. We’d
even a sured a we l-meaning friend we had ample
insulation (yes, Duncan, you were right). I’ve worked out where we
fe l short in hindsight. Our home was designed by highly respected
Christchurch architec the late Peter Beaven, for a magic little
Port Hill site, where he planned to live in with his wife Lesley.
Sadly Peter died before realising his plans. We bough them and
employed Archology in Sydney, where we were living a the time, to
prepare the construction drawings and specifications. Compared to
Australia, the R values for insulation would have looked high. Our
talented young builder, Sam McCarthy, would never have queried
the levels because they were standard practice around town. So it
wasn’t until we were living in the house and I consulted Council’s
eco design advisor Julie Vi lard about how we could warm it up that
we discovered, while we unwittingly thought we had exceeded New
Zealand standard, we had merely met Code. And that ain’t going to
cut it in our climate.
Fortunately Julie had plenty of ideas on how we could improve
the situation and we have easy acce s to our underfloor to top-up
the insulation. Julie Villard, an architect from France, is on a mi sion
to transform building best practice here and you can read abou the
groundbreaking idea she’s applied to her own brand new build on
page 20.
I’ve shared the highs and lows of building with the other home
builders and renovators I interviewed and, like Diane (page 36), would
relish doing it again. I wa struck by how all the home owner said
wha they most valued was the ability of their designer or builder to
“really listen” to their wants and needs. I was also impre sed by how
much Christchurch people love a good garage! We’ve got some ideas
for some top of their cla s cars to complement yours on page 81 and
how to quickly establish a lawn on page 72.
We review a l the lates trends in everyone’s favourite room –
the kitchen (page 48), and share an easy yet impressive recipe for
entertaining friends in your fabulous new home on page 77.
I hope Peter Beaven would be pleased with how the cool, calm,
co lected one and I realised his dream. Go chase yours people!

Speaking to the NZ Institute of Architects about ‘bespoke
architecture’ being a ‘minority pursuit’ not long before his death
Peter said “I am going to try to prove that it’s possible to build
modestly and cheaply with a little house for ourselves. It’s going to
be sustainable and it’s going to be beautiful and it’s going to be just
cheap – no more than an ordinary spec house. I’ l prove that it can
be done, and it might be the las thing I prove.”
