Red zone plan close
• By Julia Evans
THE DRAFT plan for the
future of the red zone is
expected to be made public
before the end of the year.
In its quarterly report,
Regenerate Christchurch
revealed the draft Otakaro
Avon River Corridor
Regeneration Plan would
be made public by late-
December.
“Regenerate Christchurch
advises the draft
Regeneration Plan is forecast
to be publicly notified
between mid-November
and late-December,” the
report said.
Once released and public
feedback gathered, the
draft plan will then be
approved by Minister for
Greater Christchurch Regeneration
Megan Woods
before it is finalised.
It comes after The Star
revealed Regenerate had
spent nearly $500,000
on the exhibition used to
gather public feedback
which will develop the
draft plan.
“There are always costs
involved with public
engagement but, given
the scale and long-term
significance of our work,
REVEAL: Regenerate Christchuch’s draft plan
for the future of the red zone will be released in
November or December. (Inset) – Ivan Iafeta.
we believe this investment
is important to ensure
our work is informed by
the views and aspirations
of the community,” chief
executive Ivan Iafeta said.
He said the five-week
exhibition and engagement
was one of the “most
significant” public
engagements since the
earthquakes.
The money was spent on
interactive displays, the
design and printing of the
panels, lease and fit-out
of the exhibition space
in Cashel St, an online
version of the exhibition,
the travelling exhibition,
printing and advertising,
project management, and
ambassadors.
It is estimated developing
the red zone would cost
$800 million over 30 years.
That includes $153
million for the 11km green
spine, which emerged as
the favourite option from
the exhibition. The red
zone is expected to bring
billions of dollars in to the
economy.
