youth group member Zara
Graham took this photo of the
harbour after a workshop with
professional photographers.
During the school holidays,
you might have noticed 10
fledgling photographers from
the youth group snapping
portraits, landscapes and
other creative shots using rock
towers, splashing water and
spider webs.
Diamond Harbour professional
photographers Kerri-
Ann Cameron and Kirsten
Aldridge ran a holiday workshop
with the teens, teaching
them how to use their digital
SLR cameras on some of the
more advanced manual settings
and providing an introduction
to the theory of light and photographic
composition.
Taking advantage of the sunshine,
the group spent time in
Morgan’s Gully and Diamond
Harbour beach, practising
their new skills. Ms Aldridge
said it was fantastic to see how
engaged and enthusiastic the
students were.
“I was particularly delighted
to see that many of them went
home and kept practising their
skills.”

Lucky
escape
after crash
down 5m
bank in
Rapaki
THE OCCUPANTS of a small
four-wheel drive were lucky
to walk away without injuries
after their vehicle slid on ice and
rolled 5m down a bank near the
settlement of Rapaki on Thursday
morning.
The accident happened between
7.30am and 8am on Governors
Bay Rd between Lyttelton and
Governors Bay.
Police, ambulance and the Lyttelton
fire brigade attended.
Lyttelton Volunteer Fire Brigade
chief fire officer Mark Buckley
said when the car rolled over the
bank, it landed on its side on large
“springy” bushes, which saved it
from travelling any further down
the hill.
Mr Buckley said while the two
female occupants did not sustain
any injuries, they were transported
to Christchurch Hospital
to be checked.
He said they were lucky the car
had not rolled further down the
hill.
The vehicle sustained some
damage, but “not a heck of a lot in
comparison to what you thought
it might have,” said Mr Buckley.

THOUSANDS UPON thousands of
Cantabrians would have had an Ice Cream
Charlie over the decades.
I remember my father taking us kids to
the one in Lichfield St and then to other
locations when it moved around the central
city. The taste has never changed.
Today on page 7, we pay tribute to Ken Barnes, the city’s third
Ice Cream Charlie, who passed away recently aged 94.
Reporter Bridget Rutherford spoke to Ken’s daughter, Pam
Richardson, who is the Banks Peninsula Community Board
chairwoman.
Pam said he worked long hours in the iconic Vanilla Ices
cart, and also was very active with the Lions Club of South
Christchurch over the years. And he had a saying: The customer
is king. Not wrong there.

Clock tower danger warning
PEOPLE attempting to
break into the earthquakedamaged
Scarborough clock
tower are putting themselves
in a potentially dangerous
situation, the city council is
warning.
The heritage clock tower
is currently surrounded by
scaffolding and has fencing
around it, but that has not
stopped some people from
trying to gain entry.
“The reason why the
clock tower is fenced off is
because we’ve had engineers
working to determine how
much damage it sustained
in the earthquakes and what
needs to be done to fix it,’’
said city council head of parks
Andrew Rutledge.
“The assessment shows while
the clock tower is structurally
sound, it requires extensive
repairs. Some of the surface
masonry is loose and could
fall off if we got another strong
quake.
“It is not safe for the public
to be in the clock tower which
is why we have got it fenced off.
Our concern is that if someone
does try to break in while
the repair work is under way,
they could find themselves
in a potentially dangerous
situation,’’ Mr Rutledge
said.
The repairs to the clock
tower are likely to take
several more months to
complete and will involve
removing all the clock faces
so they can be restored by
specialists.
The scaffolding on the
Scarborough tower was
installed in March and is
costing $280 a week.
It is believed to be the first
time the clock faces have been
restored since being built in
the 1930s.
People have also tried to
gain entry to New Brighton’s
damaged clock tower.
DANGEROUS: People
trying to gain entry to clock
towers at Scarborough and

200 sign to save Redcliffs Park
Plan to send
petition to
Parliament
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding
NEARLY 200 signatures have
been collected in a bid to return
Redcliffs School to its former
Main Rd site.
The electronic petition, organised
by Friends of Redcliffs
Park, closed on
Monday and is
planned to be
presented to
Parliament.
It calls for
urgent legislation
enabling
Chris
Doudney
the school to
reopen on its
former Main Rd
site and to spare Redcliffs Park
and Redcliffs School from being
demolished.
But the Ministry of Education
confirmed demolition at
Redcliffs Park began earlier this
month and is expected to be
completed early next month.
The table tennis hall and
toilets are being demolished and
the playground is to be dismantled
for relocation.
The tender for the Redcliffs
School demolition closes next
Friday, and work is expected to
commence later next month.
Friends of Redcliffs Park
spokesman Chris Doudney said
the next step will be arranging
for a MP to take the petition to
Parliament.
“The unfortunate thing of
course is the Ministry of Education
demolished the community
pavilion, which the city council
was going to put $100,000 for
us to restore for the local community,”
he said.

GONE: The community pavilion at Redcliffs Park was

almost 16km

starting point
after he
began walking
when he was
separated
from friends.
Long walk alone
failed to see a message scrawled
into dust on the back windscreen:
“Started walking.”
The three alerted police and
began planning how to look for
their friend.
Said Senior Constable Johnson:
“Luckily a lady driving along the
Summit Rd saw this guy walking
about 5.30pm and stopped. He
said his mates were coming to
pick him up and she thought it
was a bit odd so she notified the
police and we put two and two
together.”
The friends were reunited after
they followed the police vehicle
to their lost companion trudging
along the roadside.
The incident was a good reminder
to wait for your friends
if you got separated rather than
wandering off, Senior Constable
Johnson said.

AT WORK: Ken Barnes working in an early Vanilla Ices cart.
Ice Cream Charlie
farewelled;
legacy lives on
• By Bridget Rutherford
THE CUSTOMER is king.
That was one of the lessons
Ken Barnes taught his
children when they helped
him man his iconic ice
cream stall, Vanilla Ices.
Mr Barnes was the city’s
third Ice Cream Charlie,
running the Christchurch
institution for years when
it was based on Lichfield
St, behind Farmers, and
later in its current
location at Victoria
Square.
He passed away
on July 15 at
Anthony Wilding
Hospital. He was
94.
Mr Barnes, who
was trained as a
fitter and turner,
was also heavily involved
in the Lions
Club of Christchurch
South for
more than 20 years.
Daughter Pam Richardson,
who is the Banks
Peninsula Community
Board’s chairwoman, said
her father was a special
man who loved his job.
“He loved serving
customers chatting away
to them listening to their
stories of where they came
from.”
Mrs Richardson said he
worked long days.
Pam
Richardson
“As youngsters we spent
many hours standing on a
box beside the cart washing
and drying glasses or
inside standing beside father
collecting the money
and giving the change.
We learnt to look after the
customer – the customer
was king,” she said.
“Look after the customer
and he will return time
and time again. And they
did for their weekly treat
– a dish of ice
cream with raspberry
topping all
made at home
in the factory in
Clarkson Ave.”
The first Ice
Cream Charlie
was Sali Mahomet,
who set up a
cart in Cathedral
Square in 1903.
When Mr
Mahomet died in
1943, Vic Wilkinson, who
ran Vanilla Ices, was given
the name.
Mr Wilkinson owned
a dairy farm and used
the milk to make his ice
cream.
Then his daughter Joan
married Mr Barnes, who
grew up in Cheviot, and
they started running the
cart, with the help of Mr
Wilkinson. Their son Max
later took over later.
Mr Barnes’ funeral was

Barnes used when he owned the business.
held on Monday at St Augustine’s
Anglican Church
in Cashmere.
Mrs Richardson said
people travelled from all
over town to get an ice
cream from the cart at the
end of the week.
“Victoria Square, the latest
of his [Mr Barnes] sites,
was an amazing setting for
an ice cream cart.”
Lions Club of Christchurch
South secretary and
friend Barry Scott said Mr
Barnes was an honest and
clever gentleman.
He was the convener of
the annual magic show and
part of the Santa’s Workshop
team that built toys to
donate at Christmas.
“Any working bee
through the Lions, Ken
would be there, and he
would be there with his
basket and his coffee. He
always had enough for
himself and anyone else
there.”
Mr Scott said Mr
Barnes and his late wife
Joan attended most Lions
events.
“When we asked him
what was in his ice cream,
he would say ‘I’m not telling
you that’. That was his
life there for quite a few
years,” Mr Scott said.
“He was certainly a
magician when it came to
dishing out the ice cream.”
Vanilla Ices has been
owned by George and
Raewyn Taylor since 1999.
Mrs Taylor said she had
heard Mr Barnes passed
away, but did not know
him personally.
Mr Barnes is survived
by his children Pam, Max
and Lynne, along with his
grandchildren and greatgrandchildren.

Akaroa firefighters
turn out to
smoking chimneys
• By Sarla Donovan
THE AKAROA Volunteer Fire
Brigade has been called to two
chimney fires in Duvauchelle over
the past week.
An elderly woman phoned
the brigade at about 8.30am on
Monday morning when her house
filled with smoke. The woman had
begun lighting her woodburner
when smoke began billowing out.
Chief fire officer Mark Thomson
said the woman had done “all the
right things” by closing doors and
going outside.
The brigade took 10min to arrive
and there was no damage to the
house, however the house needed
to be ventilated.
Mr Thomson said the chimney
was clean and the cause was
likely to be atmospheric conditions
causing a back draft to blow back
down.
A similar situation triggered a
call out to the Duvauchelle Hotel
last week. Smoke detectors were
triggered when the fire was lit and
smoke filled the room.
“I think what happens is when
they turn the Xpelair on in the
kitchen, if they don’t have a
window open it sucks the smoke
back down the chimney,” said Mr
Thomson.
By the time the brigade arrived
the smoke had already been cleared.

Satellites pinpoint 8000 springs
• By Stacey Bryan
RESEARCHERS HAVE used
satellite imagery to discover
more than 8000 springs on
Banks Peninsula – far more
than the 42 previously recorded.
The communities of Banks
Peninsula are completely
reliant on rain
water, which is
absorbed into
the ground and
comes to the
surface at the
springs.
Canterbury
Fiona Nicol
University
lecturer Sam
Hampton presented his research
on the hydrogeology of the peninsula
in Lyttelton last week.
Dr Hampton worked with a
team of students from Frontiers
Abroad Aotearoa and other
university scientists, mapping
the geology and hydrology of
the peninsula.
Environment Canterbury
had previously mapped only
42 springs in the area, but
the local community always
thought there were a lot more
than that.
ECan’s chief scientist Tim
Davie said Dr Hampton’s
research had substantially
improved their understanding
of water sources on Banks
Peninsula.
His findings gave a “better
idea of how to protect water
quality in the source area of
the spring water so that we can
maintain really good water
quality for Banks Peninsula.”
As well as coming up with
an accurate map of springs,
the researchers also found that
springs located in forested areas
had higher flow rates than those
in grassy areas, and suggested
ways to improve and protect
spring water sources.
The springs are fed by rain
water and Dr Hampton said
where there was more forest
cover, there seemed to be more
precipitation and therefore more
recharge.
“What we’re potentially seeing
here is [that] deforestation has
had a massive influence in terms
of the flow rate and output of
the springs.”
Given the findings, Dr
Hampton said springs could be
a secure, good-quality source of

about its 25th
anniversary
celebration next month
THE SUMNER Ferrymead
Foundation will celebrate its
25th anniversary next month
and look back on the financial
contributions it has made to
many groups and individuals
within our community.
Since its launch in 1993,
many have benefited, including
donations for education, music,
youth, arts and entertainment,
the environment, health
and welfare, and sport and

Richardson, Felicity Backhouse, Daryl Sayer and Seb Johnson.
recreation.
Funds are derived from returns
on invested funds which
are held in perpetuity and, after
considering an application,
the trustees make donations
within the “catchment area”.
Donations have been made towards
rebuilding the Mt Pleasant
Community Centre, the Heathcote
and Mt Pleasant school
pools, the Sumner Lifeboat
Institution, the Sumner Theatre
Group and Sumner Bridge Club,
the hockey, yacht and cricket
clubs, and numerous students.
Last year some representatives
of groups and individuals who
had recently received assistance
met with trustees. Seb Johnson,
who represented New Zealand at
the world surf lifesaving champs,
Francesca Beaton, a student who
attended an Otago University
summer research programme,
the Sumner Volunteer Fire Brigade,
the Sumner Cricket Club’s
Ray Steele, Sumner and Redcliffs
libraries’ Denny Richardson and
Felicity Backhouse all used donations
to purchase equipment
and materials.
The objectives of the foundation
are to support and enhance
the community for the future
and this is made possible by the
generous donations or bequests
from groups and individuals.

Readers respond to an
article on Birdlings Flat
residents opposing the
city council’s plans to
replace 90 per cent of the
streetlight network with
brighter blue/white LED
lights within the next three
years
Ian Orchard – The city
council needs a wake-up call –
blue-white LEDs are the wrong
colour for street lights. The excessive
blue component disrupts
melatonin and sleep patterns
and creates unnecessary glare for
motorists. It is also possible that
they actually use more electricity
than the sodium lamps they
are replacing (haven’t checked
this, hopefully they have). If the
majority of ratepayers don’t want
(LED lights) to protect their dark
skies, it can be a big saving in
electricity and installation and
maintenance costs.
Frances Malcolm – We live
in Birdlings Flat and love the
natural feel of it here. We love
how dark it is at night, especially
when we get a clear night and
can see all the stars and also
hear the waves crashing down
STAR-GAZING: The Milky Way
over Birdlings Flat, where the
majority of residents want to
see less street lighting.
the beach. We would be very sad
to lose this unique feel through
the addition of street lighting.
As can be seen already, the
bright amber street lights down
the southern end of Birdlings
Flat do not enhance the natural
surroundings, but rather make
that end of the village feel less
in tune with nature and less
attractive. I am hugely in support
of preserving our dark sky
zone with no lighting in most
places here. However, if there is a
need for lighting in more public
zones like the playground/carpark/community
centre area, I
would like to see the lighting be
a means to enhance and attract
people to the area, but not impose
on the dark sky zone. Low
boulevard-style lighting like they
have in Tekapo would be much
better than tall street lights.
Kathy Kise – The dark skies
of Birdlings Flat is one of the
many reasons why my family
and I moved to Birdlings Flat.
This “place” provides a more
natural experience while living
amidst our natural world under
threat. What we have at Birdlings
Flat is precious and rapidly
diminishing worldwide. My
home at Birdlings Flat has no cell
phone reception either, which I
hope to safeguard as well. For
the past four years I have been
working on my PhD on ‘how
people and things produce
subjective well-being (it’s longer
than this, but I gift you the short
version).’ Particular to well-being
is “place” and this place has all
the right appeal for reconnecting
with the basic and fundamental
elements of our natural world
with all its
raw, uncomplicated
and
complex
brilliance.
Currently,
this can be
experienced
‘both day
and night’
from my side
of the village
(with no
street lights
and no cell
phone coverage).
This “place” provides all the
‘wonder and awe’ that produces
the serotonin that uploads our
biological systems toward wellbeing
when we nightly view
our relative position within the
entire universe. Many nights, the
dark sky takes me to my knees
out of respect for what is already
here without us. This place needs
no artificial light, simply the recognition
of “our place” in whatever
“place” we find ourselves in.
(Abridged)
Kyra Xavia – I’m an active
member of the Dunedin Dark
Skies Group and I’m delighted
that residents in Birdlings Flat
are lobbying
against the
introduction of
new, disruptive,
white blue-rich
LED streetlights.
Current
LED streetlights
recommended
by the New Zealand
Transport
Agency are inappropriate
and unfit
for purpose for
many reasons. As
you are aware,
lighting is complex, there are valid
justifications why people need
to be concerned about existing
LED technology, and much is at
stake. It’s our responsibility to
consider the broader, long-term
negative costs of LEDs that far
outweigh energy, maintenance
and operational savings.

Dyson presents special award
Labour MP for
the Port Hills
Ruth Dyson
writes about
the work
undertaken
by Special
Olympics New
Zealand
THE BAY Harbour News recently
featured local audiologist Jeanine
Doherty being a recipient of the
Paul Harris Fellowship from the
Rotary Club of Ferrymead – an
important recognition of her
community work.
The work is primarily focused
on the work she does with
Special Olympics NZ.
Well, this week I had the privilege
of presenting Jeanine with
yet another prestigious award –
the Golisano Health Leadership
Award, the highest award given
by Special Olympics.
It was a pleasure to be joined
by representatives from both the
Rotary Club of Ferrymead and
the Lions organisation which
are huge supporters of Special
Olympics.
Many people get Special
Olympics and Paralympics confused
but they are very different
organisations. Special Olympics
provides sporting opportunities
for people with intellectual disability
and operates with a very
small team of paid staff and a
huge network of volunteers.
It runs serious coaching sessions
for a range of sports, and
alongside that goes the fun and
friendship associated with involvement
in sport.
But Jeanine is part of the
SPECIAL: Audiologist Jeanine
Doherty was awarded the
Golisano Health Leadership
Award, the highest award
given out by Special Olympics
New Zealand.
Special Olympics team that does
so much more than this – even
though the sporting work is
huge.
As an audiologist, she provides
free hearing health checks for
the special Olympians. Others
provide vision, dental and feet
health checks. This is amazing
work that links a large number
of people with access to health
checks that they are often otherwise
unable to access.
It is a sad fact that many in
our communities don’t access
services that many others take
for granted. People like Jeanine
use their expertise to bridge that
gap. It is a generous contribution
of their skills to improve the lives
of others.
We should all be grateful that
we have people like Jeanine
living in our community. Big
thanks for this great work.

COMPOSED: Jordan Halligan plays a ball in midfield.
IN FLIGHT: Bays’ keeper Max Collingwood is it full stretch to make a save.
Late goals save Ferrymead Bays
SPORTS
• By Gordon Findlater
FOR THE second time in as
many games a 90th-minute
goal has kept Ferrymead Bays’
Southern League title hopes
alive.
With 25min remaining in
their match against Dunedin
Technical on Sunday Bays
found themselves down 0-1.
However, an equaliser from
Nikolai Molijn and winner
from Sho Mathieson in the final
15min saw bays return home
with three points.
Playing into a strong wind in
the first-half Bays coach Danny
Halligan says his side were unlucky
not to hold an advantage
with two goals ruled out by
offside.
In the second half Dunedin
Tech started the stronger of
the two and took the lead after
55min.
With their league hopes on
the line Bays upped the ante and
produced a memorable finish to
the match.
A scramble following a Bays
corner after 75min saw Molijn
roof the ball into the back of
the net. They would carry that
momentum into the dying stages
of the match which saw Mathieson
get his head on the end of a
launched free-kick from 50m out
by Sam Ford.
“We continued to press and
knew we would eventually score
but had to hope we score quickly
twice,” said Halligan.
“It was a great result and one
we felt we deserved.”
The win means that Bays
are now two points off leaders
Cashmere Technical. Bays next
match will see them host Nelson
Suburbs at English Park this
Sunday.
Nelson secured their first win
in the Southern League at the
weekend when they defeated
Queenstown AFC 5-0.
“We know them well, they’re
a quality side and will be full
of confidence after a big win,”
WINNER: Sho
Mathieson’s late
header secured
three points
for Ferrymead
Bays on Sunday.

said Halligan.
Bays will also hope that the
trio of Chris Murphy, Shawn
O’Brien and Mark Peers can
shake off knocks picked up during
Sunday’s match. O’Brien and
Peers are battling with ongoing
niggles while Murphy picked up
an ankle injury.
Sumner’s metro campaign comes to abrupt end
• By Gordon Findlater
SUMNER COACH Martin
Dodgson says he will have
a huge pebble in his shoe
bothering him over the
summer after Sumner’s
premier metro rugby
campaign came to an end
on Saturday when they were
defeated 7-36 by Marist Albion.
After starting the season in
historic fashion by recording
their highest ever finish in
the opening round robin
(third), Sumner failed to fire
in the top-six Hawkins Trophy
competition.
The fall in form was
compounded at St Leonards
Park on Saturday when Marist
eliminated Sumner in the
Hawkins Plate semi-final –
played for between the bottom
two finishers in the top six
competition and top two
finishers in the bottom six
competition.
“We were beaten by a better
team,” said Dodgson.
“We actually had a lot of
fight. We had most of the ball
to start the game but they were
great on defence and grew in
confidence the more they held
us off.”
After taking an early 7-0 lead
the momentum quickly turned
in Marist’s favour.
The home side also found
themselves down a man late in
the game after Ollie Niessen
was sent to the side-line
following a second yellow card
offence.
With Sumner’s season now
over coach Dodgson pointed
out his side’s 19-40 loss to New
Brighton in June as the turning
point.
“Whoever won that game
was almost assured of
making the semi-finals,”
said Dodgson.
“We will be sitting on that
result for a while, it was a
tough pill to swallow.”
Sumner’s premier team will
have a formal end to their
campaign on August 8 when
the club hold their annual end
of season awards.

You Left Early: A True Story of
Love and Alcohol
by Louisa Young
This brutal, beautiful memoir from award-winning novelist
Louisa Young is a heartbreaking portrayal of love, grief and
the merciless grip of addiction.
Louisa first met Robert Lockhart when they were both 17. Their stopstart
romance lasted decades, in which time he became a celebrated composer
and she, an acclaimed novelist. Always snapping at their heels was Robert’s
alcoholism, a helpless, ferocious dependency that affected his personality before
crippling and finally, despite five years of hard-won sobriety, killing him.
There are a million love stories, and a million stories of addiction. This one is truly
transcendent. It is at once a compelling portrait of a unique and charismatic man;
a bittersweet reflection on an all-consuming love affair; and a completely honest
and incredibly affecting guide to how the partner of an alcoholic can possibly
survive when the disease rips both their lives apart.
This is a hugely important book – raw and unflinching but also uplifting and
elegiac, it should be essential reading for anybody who’s ever lost someone
they loved.
Boy Swallows Universe

language. Babytimes is an interactive
programme including
rhymes, songs, stories and play.

An utterly wonderful novel of love, crime, magic, fate and coming of age, set in
Brisbane’s violent working class suburban fringe - from one of Australia’s most
exciting new writers.
Brisbane, 1983: A lost father, a mute brother, a mum in jail, a heroin dealer
for a stepfather and a notorious crim for a babysitter. It’s not as if Eli’s life isn’t
complicated enough already. He’s just trying to follow his heart, learning what it
takes to be a good man, but life just keeps throwing obstacles in the way - not
least of which is Tytus Broz, legendary Brisbane drug dealer.
But Eli’s life is about to get a whole lot more serious. He’s about to fall in love.
And, oh yeah, he has to break into Boggo Road Gaol on Christmas Day, to save
his mum.
A story of brotherhood, true love and the most unlikely of friendships, Boy
Swallows Universe will be the most heartbreaking, joyous and exhilarating novel
you will read all year.

Negotiation over $939,000 plus GST (if any)
5 bedrooms | 2 bathrooms | 1 living/dining room | 3 car garage | 21.2440ha freehold land | Listing #6459
The interior of this extraordinarily
appealing home has been largely crafted
using the enduring beauty of native timber,
resulting in superb spaces for those who want
a whole lot more than a strictly utilitarian
box in a suburban setting. It offers all the
rustic charm you want with all the comfort
you need, combining all day sun with
beautiful views and superb living spaces,
solar hot water panels, two water tanks, a log
burner on wetback and gas cooking.
The cleverly designed floor plan allows
for many options. Live on one side of the
home with three double bedrooms upstairs
with one of these opening onto its own
balcony and a spacious sun drenched open
plan kitchen/lounge opening to the deck
and garden. Along with all of this, two tile
and timber detailed bathrooms all make for
good family living or, in the unlikely event,
you want to share your piece of paradise
with others this will, of course, make for
a wonderful Airbnb proposition, with 2
bedrooms and 2 bathrooms with its own
open plan kitchen and living areas opening
onto the balcony. Tucked away, a short walk
from the main house must be the ultimate
romantic retreat in the form of a candle
lit cabin with an outdoor bath over a fire.

WORKSAFE NEW Zealand
has b en a proached in a bid to
fina ly repair the potholes in New
Brighton’s Hawke St car park.
Coastal-Burw od Ward city
counci lor David East wants
WorkSafe to pre sure the car
park’s private owners into
repairing the potholes which are
a “trip and vehicle” hazard.
WorkSafe chief inspector
a se sment southern Da ren
Handforth said it may be able to
take action under the Health and
Safety at Work Act 2015, “as a
person conducting a busine s or
undertaking.”
Mr Handforth said WorkSafe
is aware of the concerns raised by
Cr East abou the car park.
“WorkSafe has completed
an a se sment visi to the site
and is engaging with the owner
to advise them that it is their
responsibility to manage their
risks a propriately.”
Different parts of the car park
are owned by various people
and the Coastal-Burw od
Community Board recently
wrote to them about its concerns
around health and safety.
Cr East said the bi gest i sue
in the past has b en ge ting in
touch with the landlords and
owners and ge ting them to
agr e to anything. “The board
a preciates that multi-ownership
of the parking space may present
a difficulty in co-ordinating
repair/resurfacing but felt obliged
to pa s these concerns onto you,”
said the le ter.
One reply has b en received so
far from an owner who is wi ling
to discu s the i sue. However, a l
the owners would have to agr e
to undertake work.
Cr East said there had b en
a “number of incidences” in
the car park of people injuring
themselves which had gone
unreported.
“I’ve always though that it
has b en quite amazing that we
haven’t had any serious a cidents
or senior citizens perhaps
tri ping in those potholes and
doing themselve some damage.”
He is confiden the new
a proach wi l bring results.
“I think the WorkSafe
involvement may prove to be the
lever that we are l oking for.”

THE PAPANUI-I nes
Community Board has taken the
rare step of starting a petition
to figh the city council over
funding.
Signatures are being co lected
in a bid to get funding for a community
facility in Shirley.
It comes after the city council
removed funding for the centre
pla ned for Shirley Rd, near the
intersection with Hi ls Rd. This
was the site of the former community
centre, which was badly
damaged in the February 2,
20 1, earthquake.
The removal o funding
prompted community board
chairwoman Ali Jones to threaten
to stand down, citing it as her “die
in the ditch” project.
Ms Jone said the board’s role
is to represen the community,
and by gathering signatures from
residents, it was fulfi ling that
role.
“One of the roles of a community
board is to represent and act
as advocate for the interests of its
community and this is what we
are doing. The LTP and a nual
plans are a l about lo bying the
council.”

Cave Rock
Apartments’
owners
expect EQC
sign-off
this week
• By Sarla Donovan
THE OWNERS of Sumner’s Cave
Rock Apartments ar expecting the
Earthquake Commi sion to sign-off
on a se tlement agr emen this w ek.
Body corporate chairman Mike
White said the group had gone
into mediation with IAG and EQC
on February 20, and signed off
on a deal with IAG on February
2 – coincidenta ly seven years
to the day after the February 2,
20 1, earthquake. However, they
are waiting for EQC to sign the
agr ement.
“Given that EQC actua ly drafted
the agr ement, there’ l be no
problem with them doing that.”
The apartment suffered damage
in the February and June, 20 1,
earthquakes and were demolished in
late 2012. In 2016, IAG’s offer of the
difference betw en indemnity value,
$10 mi lion, and the sum insured,
$16 mi lion, was rejected by the body
corporate.
The mediation agr ement
prevented Mr White from disclosing
the se tlement amount, but he said it
involved the two parties paying “a bit
more money than they’d wanted to
earlier.”

A WOOLSTON butcher proved
to be a cut above the rest in an

New World Fe ry Rd butcher
Jeremy Garth and his team, the
Pure South Sharp Blacks, recently
came second a the World
Butchers’ Cha lenge in Northern

It was the firs time Mr Garth

how the team performed.
“We produced some top quality
products and came away
with a g od result so we’re very

The preparation for this year’s
World Butchers’ Cha lenge was
intense as the team members
met in Auckland every two
months for lengthy w ekend
practices.
Mr Garth, who has b en a
butcher for 14 years, said the
competition brought back his
pa sion for the job.
“Doing a l thi stuff and
m eting new people, s eing new
ideas, it just brings that flair
back for you,” he said.
Mr Garth hopes to own a
butcher shop of his own someday
but says for now he wi l focus
on ge ting mor experience
and on the 2020 cha lenge.
“In two years’ time, we’ l be
going back to try and win the

A CRACKDOWN on mobile
traders acro s the districts could

However, the public has li tle
interest in having input into the
i sue.
Only eight submi sions were
received for a potential bylaw
aimed at regulating commercial
activities in public places.
The district council wi l be
holding a hearing for the Public
Places Bylaw and Policy on Commercial
Activities and Events in
Public Places.
A hearing i scheduled to be
held on Thursday.
The bylaw comes as an increasing
number of mobile traders
are s eking to operate in Selwyn,
especia ly during the summer
months.
In the past year, the district
council has received five inquiries
about se ting up a mobile busine s
on private or public land.
A report said there are two

coff e cart is parked beside the
railway in Ro leston, and a pi za

Pupils learn about role of war horses
GR ENDALE SCHOOL pupils

The New Zealand Mounted
Rifles Charitable Trust president
Mark A pleton and member
Mike Donaldson t ok their
horses to the sch ol on Monday,
in a bid to educate pupils on the
sacrifice their ancestors made in
World War 1 and World War 2.
Mr A pleton and Mr Donaldson
a rived a the sch ol dre sed
in World War 1 uniforms while
their horses Tommy and Kruze
wore 1 0-year-old sa dles donated
to the trust.
The presentation is a prelude
to the Gr endale Recreation Reserve
Management Commi t e’s
upcoming Anzac Day service.
As a tribute to those who
served, members of the trust wi l
ride horseback to the service.
Mr A pleton said it was
important children were
educated on what soldiers
wen through during World
War 1 and World War 2.
But he said the presentation
didn’t go into t o much detail
and was more of a “show and

the soldiers l oked like.
Children were shown the type
of kits horses were required to
wear in the war.

Mr Winder and his team, the

He said the cha lenge started

The preparation for this

said coming second against 1
other countries was a “fantastic”

“To get second behind Ireland
was a huge achievement and to
be ahead of Australia is an
even bi ger thing for us,” he
said.
But Mr Winder admires the
Australian team.
“Those guys over there
[Australia] are on top of their
game, they do a g od job,” he
said.
“And it just showcases that
New Zealand has got some
of the best butchers in the
world,” he said.

IT COULD be some time before
charges are laid in relation to the
fatal hit-and-run in Dallington.
Detective Senior Sergeant Greg
Cottam said yesterday the vehicle
involved in the crash last week
was still being examined.
He said there was still a lot of
work to do to gather all the information
and finish police inquiries
before any charges would be laid.
“They can take some time,” he
said.
“We’ve got six months to lay
charges in relation to traffic offending
– it certainly won’t take
that long.”
Steffan Pearce-
Loe (right), 30, was
hit by a vehicle
near the Gayhurst
Rd bridge while
walking his dogs at
about 2.30am last
Thursday.
He died in hospital
from his injuries on Friday.
His funeral was held on Tuesday.
Police found the vehicle
involved, which had damage
consistent with the crash, on Saturday.
A detective saw it parked
up a driveway.
The vehicle’s owner, who was
driving, has been interviewed by
police.
Detective Senior Sergeant Cottam
remained tight-lipped about
the driver. •Turn to page 6
