PAGE 2 Wednesday October 17 2018 BAY HARBOUR Latest Christchurch news at www.star.kiwi from the reporter’s desk REDCLIFFS AND Southshore residents will be pleased to see steps being taken towards a resolution on high flood hazard management area issues by Christmas (see page 1). On Monday, the city council approved a draft proposal to Greater Christchurch Regeneration Minister Megan Woods to change the wording of the District Plan. The new wording will make it easier for residents in those areas to get consent to build new houses or renovate existing ones, something that has been almost impossible before. A final proposal will come back to the city council on or before November 14. The speed that this draft has come to council and the way the time line going forward looks, has changed the tune of Darrell Latham. The once critical Dr Latham now says the city council is making the right moves. – Matt Salmons get in touch GENERAL INQUIRIES Ph 379 7100 CLASSIFIED ADVERTISING Ph 379 1100 Star Media, a division of Allied Press Ltd PO box 1467, Christchurch starmedia.kiwi NEWS Matt Salmons Ph: 021 902 729 matt.salmons@starmedia.kiwi ADVERTISING Dalton Dalley Ph: 364 7452 dalton.dalley@ starmedia.kiwi Danté Fyfe BCom, GDipPM, CMT Rob Davison Ph: 021 225 8584 rob.davison@ starmedia.kiwi news Check out the new Sportsman 470 Range TODAY Flu epidemic recalled An exhibition at the Lyttelton Library remembers an era when flu killed half as many New Zealanders as World War 1.

Wednesday October 17 2018 News Seventhwave moves back home • By Matt Salmons WELL-KNOWN wetsuit manufacturer Seventhwave has returned home, bringing its entire operation back to its original Ferrymead site. The company moved to a site on Dyers Rd, Bromley, the day before the September 4, 2010, earthquake. Managing director Sarah Armstrong-Park said the refitted shop opened on Monday morning. She said the staff were excited to move the manufacturing plant, showroom and headquarters back to the company’s original home. Sumner surfer Paul Zarifeh founded the company in 1987 as the Canterbury Wetsuit Company. Mr Zarifeh died of pancreatic cancer on November 23 aged 60. Three weeks later, his son Sam Zarifeh died after falling from a raft on the West Coast’s Landsborough River. The two were commemorated by a sculpture on the Esplanade which was installed in July. Said Mrs Armstrong-Park: “Paul was a lovely guy and even though we weren’t there [when Seventhwave was in Ferrymead] ourselves, it’s still like going home. For our staff, who’ve been HOME AGAIN: Sarah Armstrong-Park outside the Seventhwave shop in Ferrymead. here for a long time, they’re so excited.” Mrs Armstrong-Park and Leif Park took ownership of the company three years ago, and briefly considered whether it was feasible to continue manufacturing locally. “We decided that, really, that’s what the brand is, keeping it Kiwi. Taking it home really aligns with that.” She said the feedback from the surfing community has Latest Christchurch news at www.star.kiwi up to 30 % off Resene Premium Paints, Wood Stains, Primers, Sealers and Wallpaper plus 25% off Decorating Accessories and Cleaning Products been positive. “Everyone’s really excited about us coming back.” “It’s a nice easy location to get to and easy to find. We’re making it easier for our customers to find us.” She said the Bromley site had served them well in the postearthquake years. “Now it’s time to bring Seventhwave back home to Ferrymead to a more central location for our loyal water-sport enthusiasts.” Dyers Road Landscape & Garden Supplies • Barks • Peastraw • Composts - we supply the best available • Aggregates - Chip, Round and Basecourse • Pavers & Schist products • Pungas • Decorative Stones & Landscaping Rocks • Trailer Hire first hour free with purchase • Bag & Bulk - pick up or delivered David, Carol & Mike FOUNDER: Seventhwave was founded by the late Paul Zarifeh (right), whose son Sam died three weeks after his father last year. Mrs Armstrong-Park said the location is “perfectly positioned” for surfers, paddleboarders, lifesavers, swimmers and boaties to drop-in. She said the signs on the refurbished site have been modelled off Mr Zarifeh’s original signs. “Just with a few tweaks.” The shop has been completely remodelled and the factory area is different. “We’ve got an awesome new women’s summer range which we’re excited about.” On Saturday, the company will host an open day and barbecue at the shop at 1063 Ferry Rd from noon. Tours of the factory will run from 4pm. •Surf championships, p18 We will deliver! BAY HARBOUR Local News Now In Brief SOIL AND HARDFILL DUMPING PAGE 3 Fire rages, homes at risk SUSPICIOUS JETTY FIRE Firefighters say a small fire on Governors Bay Jetty on Thursday morning was suspicious. Passersby reported seeing smoke coming from the middle of the jetty but no flames. The Governors Bay Volunteer Fire Brigade found smouldering planks. Chief fire officer Andrew Norris said there was no obvious cause and the jetty was blocked off by a 1.8m fence, which led him to believe it was deliberately lit.
