The event, organised by Lo<br />

Cr Johanson said the event had<br />
been a great way to bring things<br />

to see the community<br />
coming together to show<br />
support for this local area.”<br />
He will continue<br />
working with the<br />
Linwood-Central-<br />
Heathcote Community<br />

advocate and work with<br />
Government and the city<br />
council to get support for<br />
the ongoing recovery of<br />
the Linwood Islamic Centre,<br />
the Linwood community and<br />
neighbourhood businesses.”<br />

TREES LIKELY TO STAY<br />
The future of 22 trees at Villa<br />
Grove will be decided today by<br />
the Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton<br />
Community Board. <strong>Southern</strong><br />
<strong>View</strong> reported in September Villa<br />
Grove residents wanted them<br />
removed. The residents presented<br />
a 24-signature petition to the<br />
board, calling for the trees to be<br />
cut do=wn. City council staff have<br />
recommended the trees not be<br />
removed.<br />
NEW CAR PARK PLAN<br />
A new car park could be installed<br />
at the south side of the Halswell<br />
Domain. The proposed car<br />
park would be located along the<br />
Edward Stafford Ave frontage. It<br />
is due to the high use of Halswell<br />
Domain, which has led to parking<br />
pressure. The Halswell-Hornby-<br />
Riccarton Community Board will<br />
look to approve the car park at its<br />
meeting today.<br />
