LYTTELTON’S Collett’s<br />

Corner celebrated the end of<br />

its crowdfunding campaign on<br />

Thursday.<br />

During the five-week campaign,<br />

370 people invested a total<br />

of $504,000 in the project.<br />

Collett’s Corner is New<br />

Zealand’s first crowdfunding<br />

campaign for a commercial<br />

development.<br />

Founding partner of Ohu<br />

Development, the group behind<br />

Collett’s Corner, Camia Young<br />

said the project was about creating<br />

a building the community<br />

could call its own.<br />

“Wealth is power and if we can<br />

all have a little bit rather than a<br />

few people having the whole lot,<br />

that makes for a healthier society,”<br />

she said.<br />

With a floor area of <strong>27</strong>10 sq m,<br />

the building will have a wellness<br />

centre, community concierge,<br />

hospitality, retail, co-working<br />

space and apartments.<br />

The opening has been<br />

pushed back from 2020 to 2022<br />

after the crowdfunding campaign<br />

failed to meet its target of $2<br />

million.<br />

“Because we did not meet the<br />

$2 million target, we cannot<br />

engage the full design team and<br />

Fire rages, homes at risk<br />

MAN BANNED FROM BAR<br />

A Lyttelton bar has banned a<br />

patron after he wrote derogatory<br />

remarks on a noticeboard set up<br />

for messages to remember victims<br />

of the mosque shootings. His<br />

views on Muslim culture were<br />

wiped off the board by bar staff<br />

but the man returned and wrote<br />

the same message again which<br />

resulted in him being barred.<br />

The man then drew a swastika<br />

on the board. A bar spokesman<br />

said the swastika was not directed<br />

at the Muslim community but<br />

at bar staff for “denying him his<br />

freedom of speech.”<br />

SUMNER RD TO REOPEN<br />

The road linking Sumner to<br />

Lyttelton is set to reopen this<br />

Friday at 6pm. Contractors have<br />

spent the past two-and-a-half<br />

years working to reinstate Sumner<br />

Rd, which has been closed to<br />

traffic since tonnes of rocks came<br />

tumbling down onto it from the<br />

surrounding cliffs during the<br />

February 22, 2011, earthquake.<br />

FUNDING FOR FOOTPATH<br />

A new footpath on Richmond<br />

Hill has been allocated $500,000..<br />

Linwood-Central-Heathcote<br />

Community Board member<br />

Darrell Latham said the funding<br />

had been brought forward to<br />

ensure the project aligns with<br />

other work that is planned in the<br />

area.<br />
