Residents<br />
have to<br />
stump up<br />
for tree<br />
removal<br />
• By Jess Gibson<br />
GRAEME AND Diane Barber are<br />
a step closer to having problem<br />
oak trees removed from next to<br />
their property after a 10-year<br />
battle.<br />
But it’s going to cost them<br />
nearly $2000 to do it.<br />
The Harewood residents can<br />
now apply for resource consent to<br />
have the six 16m trees removed<br />
after their request was approved<br />
by the Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewood<br />
Community Board.<br />
However, they will have to foot<br />
the $1800 bill for the process,<br />
which is required as the trees are<br />
protected by the city council.<br />
There is no guarantee it will be<br />
successful.<br />
Shortly after Mr and Mrs<br />
Barber moved into their Cam Pl<br />
property in 1983, the city council<br />
planted the trees in Pasadena<br />
Reserve, which block the sun.<br />
City council head of resource<br />
consents John Higgins said the<br />
$1800 fee is only a deposit.<br />
“The final fees are the actual<br />
costs of processing [the removal]<br />
so there is potentially a refund or<br />
a further invoice.”<br />

THE CRANFORD Basin is going to look<br />
spectacular in the years to come.<br />
On page 3 today we reveal a great plan for<br />
the area – up to 40,000 native trees will be<br />
planted in the basin.<br />
It is all part of project called Matariki Tu Rākau, a nationwide<br />
initiative launched last year to mark the 100-year anniversary of<br />
the end of World War 1.<br />
The aim is to have 350,000 trees planted across New Zealand<br />
by 2020.<br />
Ten hectares of the 125ha basin will be planted with kahikatea.<br />
Given it is a flood basin the trees should grow very quickly.<br />
Another 25ha will also be planted in native bush, but not part<br />
of the Matariki Tu Rākauproject.<br />
More trees the better, I say.<br />

40,000 trees for Cranford Basin<br />
• By Jess Gibson<br />
UP TO 40,000 native trees will<br />
be planted in the Cranford<br />
Basin to recognise the service of<br />
military personnel.<br />
The city council will receive<br />
funding from the Ministry of<br />
Primary Industries for the project<br />
as part of Matariki Tu Rākau<br />
until 2020.<br />
Matariki Tu Rākauwas<br />
launched last<br />
year to mark<br />
the 100-year<br />
anniversary<br />
of the end of<br />
World War 1,<br />
with the aim to<br />
have 350,000<br />
planted across<br />
New Zealand<br />
Steve Bush<br />
by 2020.<br />
Currently,<br />
the basin on<br />
the west side of Cranford St acts<br />
as a natural stormwater collector.<br />
Of the 125ha that the basin<br />
covers, 10ha will be used for the<br />
plantation of Kahikatea trees.<br />
An additional 25ha will be<br />
used for the additional plantation<br />
of native bush, but not as part of<br />
the current project.<br />
Trees for Canterbury<br />
volunteers have been collecting<br />
Kahikatea seed from Riccarton<br />
Bush and planting them in the<br />
basin in the lead up to the first<br />
FOREST: Up to 40,000 native trees will cover 10ha of the Cranford Basin.<br />
significant plantation of 3500<br />
seeds next year.<br />
The following plantation of<br />
36,500 trees is planned for 2020.<br />
Manager Steve Bush said the<br />
wetlands are “perfect” for the<br />
plantation of Kahikatea.<br />
Mr Bush said he hopes schools<br />
and community members will<br />
jump on board for the plantation<br />
days.<br />
“It will be an ideal opportunity<br />
for people within the city limits<br />
to be involved a single planting<br />
that represents something so<br />
special,” said Mr Bush.<br />
Kahikatea was chosen for<br />
planting as they provide many<br />
ecological benefits and are<br />
expected to provide a hub for<br />
native bush bird around the city.<br />
Once trees have grown, Cranford<br />
Basin will be the largest<br />
area of native forest on the low<br />
Canterbury plains.<br />
A report outlining the<br />
project said that Cranford<br />
St is a “distinctive feature of<br />
Christchurch” and provides<br />
the last rural experience for<br />
motorists entering the city from<br />
the north.<br />
If the basin was not acquired<br />
for forestation, the land and soils<br />
would have continued to<br />
degrade.<br />

IMPROVING ROAD SAFETY<br />
New flexible road safety barriers<br />
that help stop head-on crashes<br />
and save lives are being installed<br />
on QE II Dr between Innes and<br />
Burwood Rds. The barriers<br />
are part of a $2.5 million New<br />

Footpaths<br />
could be<br />
sealed<br />
• By Jess Gibson<br />
RESIDENTS WHO use St James<br />
Park may soon have a smoother<br />
experience.<br />
The Papanui-Innes Community<br />
Board requested the city council<br />
investigate whether the current<br />
gravel footpaths can be sealed at<br />
the park on St James Ave.<br />
It has allocated funding to the<br />
levelling and shingling of the<br />
footpaths within the Long Term<br />
Plan, but it will now look at using<br />
that budget, with additional<br />
money, for asphalt. There are four<br />
sides to the track and the path on<br />
the east side is sealed, but is used<br />
heavily by cyclists as part of the<br />
Papanui Parallel Cycleway.<br />
Board member John Stringer<br />
said cyclists “rip through” the<br />
track, which is unsafe<br />
“Lots of kids, dogs, elderly,<br />
prams, rollerblades and skateboards<br />
use this park,” said Mr<br />
Stringer.<br />
He said the gravel paths are<br />
almost unusable during or after<br />
wet weather as puddles form.<br />
He said that tree roots are<br />
pushed up through the gravel<br />
paths.<br />
“It’s full of trip hazards,” he<br />
said.<br />
Residents must stump up bill<br />
•From page 1<br />
Mr Barber said he understands<br />
that the city council is usually<br />
reluctant to remove protected<br />
trees, especially if they are<br />
considered to be in “good health”<br />
like the oak trees in the reserve.<br />
He said he will work with<br />
other affected residents and get<br />
advice from community board<br />
members to figure out the best<br />
way to move forward.<br />
“We need to look at the process<br />
and navigate our way through it<br />
before we commit to making an<br />
application. I’m not quite sure<br />
how we will go about that at this<br />
stage,” said Mr Barber.<br />
“We haven’t won anything.<br />
The only thing we’ve won is<br />
the chance to take it to the next<br />
level,” he said.<br />
“Who would pay money with<br />
no guarantee of success in the<br />
initial resource consent process?<br />
Even if the trees are going to<br />
be removed and we have to pay<br />
for it, it feels like it’s our fault<br />
and that we are having to fix<br />
a problem that was caused by<br />
somebody else.”<br />
Four board members went<br />
with the city council’s second<br />
option, which was to support the<br />
removal subject to an application<br />
for resource consent.<br />
City councillor Jamie Gough<br />
said it was a complicated decision<br />
BATTLE: Graeme and Diane Barber think it is unfair that they<br />
must foot the bill for a $1800 resource consent to have oak<br />
trees removed beside their property.<br />
as the board went against staff<br />
recommendation, which was not<br />
to let the Barbers apply to have<br />
the trees removed.<br />
“I love trees, we’re the garden<br />
city. It’s something that we try<br />
not to do in normal situations<br />
but this isn’t a normal situation,”<br />
said Cr Gough.<br />
But he thought the city council<br />
should be the ones paying for the<br />
trees.<br />
“Personally I would like to see<br />
the fees waived or covered by the<br />
council as they are council trees<br />
and the trees’ potential removal<br />
and replacement would also rest<br />
with the council.”<br />
However, Mr Barber said<br />
he understood that the board<br />
wanted the best outcome for the<br />
residents.<br />
“We appreciate the board’s<br />
support. Everyone recognised<br />
the human impact of those trees<br />
being planted in the wrong place<br />
which was fantastic,” Mr Barber<br />
said.<br />
Separate tree problems have<br />
emerged in Casebrook.<br />
The city council will investigate<br />
the removal of five oak trees in<br />
the Creedon Glen after residents<br />
raised concerns over the 8-12m<br />
tall trees in the reserve next to<br />
their property.<br />
As the trees were planted close<br />
together, the residents say they<br />
now block the sun and shade the<br />
residents’ property.<br />
They also raised concerns over<br />
tree root damage to the path,<br />
which is potentially unsafe for<br />
elderly users.<br />

think affected residents<br />
should be responsible for<br />

Fire rages, homes at risk<br />

www.fourseasonstreecare.co.nz<br />
• By Jess Gibson<br />
PARKING restrictions are<br />
being considered on an<br />
upmarket street near Russley<br />
Golf Club.<br />
Residents believe vehicles<br />
have only recently started<br />
using the all-day parking on<br />
both sides of Stableford Green<br />
because<br />
of its close<br />
proximity to<br />
the airport.<br />
Resident<br />
Trevor<br />
Keeley said<br />
he thinks it<br />
is because<br />
Steffan<br />
Thomas<br />
Stableford<br />
Green is<br />
safer to park<br />
on than<br />
Memorial Ave.<br />
When parks are full, the 8m<br />
wide street becomes almost as<br />
narrow as a single lane, which<br />
has caused safety concerns.<br />
A letter to the Fendalton-<br />
Waimairi-Harewood<br />
Community Board addressing<br />
the issue was signed by<br />
residents of 17 homes and the<br />
golf club.<br />
City council manager<br />
transport operations Steffan<br />
Thomas said staff are now<br />
investigating the issue.<br />
As the entrance to the golf<br />
club is on Stableford Green,<br />
the street is heavily used by<br />
vehicles, including large trucks<br />
which make deliveries to the<br />
club and rubbish trucks.<br />
Cars enter at speed when<br />
they come in from the 60km/h<br />
Memorial Ave.<br />
Resident Shirley O’Leary said<br />
she is amazed at the danger on<br />
her street when vehicles park<br />
on both sides.<br />
“If you open the door, it<br />
wouldn’t even be a single lane.<br />
In a tiny little side street it’s just<br />
ridiculous,” said Mrs O’Leary<br />
Residents have also asked<br />
the city council to check the<br />
distance between the yellow<br />
lines on Memorial Ave and the<br />
entrance of Stableford Green,<br />
as it is unsafe to “manoeuvre”<br />
around parked vehicles and<br />
into the street.<br />
CONGESTION:<br />
The city council<br />
is considering<br />
parking<br />
restrictions on<br />
Stableford Green<br />
after residents<br />
raised concerns<br />
over a recent<br />
influx of vehicles<br />
parking on both<br />
sides of the<br />
street.<br />
Community board chairman<br />
Sam MacDonald said he is<br />
hopeful that the impacted<br />
residents can get a “timely<br />
resolution.”<br />
“It’s great that all of the<br />
residents concerned have got<br />
together and raised this issue,”<br />
said Mr MacDonald.<br />
Mr Thomas said staff will<br />
aim to get a decision in June<br />
which will then go out for<br />
public consultation.<br />

Aratupu provides total family support<br />
It’s mid-morning and a teacher at Aratupu Preschool &<br />
Nursery is reading a popular book to a group of children.<br />
She’s animated and her enthusiasm is infectious. Sitting<br />
on the mat, the children know the story so well they join<br />
in.<br />
Elsewhere, children play puzzles, read books, build<br />
towers and “feed” baby dolls. Later, there’s singing,<br />
dancing and time for blowing bubbles. In a room next<br />
door, parents and caregivers have come together over<br />
a cup of coffee to share ideas on raising children and<br />
Aratupu’s whānau support worker helps resolve any<br />
problems the families face.<br />
Outside, children run around, chase each other,<br />
climb the fort, and clamber in and over the playground<br />
equipment. A little garden of flowers and vegetables is<br />
the product of their efforts to plant and tend them.<br />
Early childhood education takes an array of forms at<br />
Aratupu.<br />
It is a small, welcoming, secure place for tamariki, run<br />
on a not-for-profit basis by the Christchurch Methodist<br />
Mission. Aratupu offers complete child care for children<br />
from birth to six years of age.<br />
Manager Katie Parks says Aratupu fosters creativity<br />
and curiosity, as well as a love of learning that will stay<br />
with children for life.<br />
“We’ve got a really good variety of experiences<br />
for tamariki to be immersed in and plenty of<br />
opportunities for fun and creativity. Our team<br />
of professionals support children to be active<br />
and adventurous learners within our safe and<br />
nurturing environment.”<br />
Fees are low and group size small. Learning<br />
is based on the national early childhood<br />
curriculum, Te Whāriki. In addition, a hot meal<br />
is served each day.<br />
Aratupu’s point of difference is that it offers<br />
total family support. The whānau support<br />
worker is on hand to help support and advocate<br />
for families and provide opportunities to develop<br />
a sense of community and connectedness. The<br />
model is unique to north-west Christchurch.<br />
It’s a philosophy that has brought generations of<br />
children through Aratupu. Some families have placed<br />
their trust in Aratupu for years and over several<br />
generations, sending their children to Aratupu, as they<br />
themselves had been. Two former parents went on to<br />
become qualified early childhood teachers and are now<br />
employed at Aratupu.<br />
Aratupu is located at 97 Harewood Rd, Papanui.<br />
If you’re interested in giving your child an Aratupu<br />
education, please phone Katie on 352 6816 or email<br />

Ping-pong table and no seats<br />
• By Jess Gibson<br />
A SHIRLEY resident is<br />
questioning why ratepayers’<br />
money was spent on a $5000<br />
ping-pong table.<br />
Don Gould has spoken out<br />
over the Papanui-Innes Community<br />
Board’s decision to buy<br />
a concrete table tennis table for<br />
the Shirley Community Centre<br />
after they were<br />
supposed to<br />
be looking at<br />
seating options.<br />
“When you<br />
ask for a picnic<br />
table, you get<br />
Don Gould<br />
a ping-pong<br />
table and a<br />
$5000 bill,” Mr<br />
CHOSEN: A lack of seating will remain at the Shirley Community Centre for now, as a decision<br />
was made to purchase a concrete ping-pong table (similar to the one pictured), instead.<br />
Gould said.<br />
In November, Richmond resident<br />
Jennifer Dalziel’s concerns<br />
over a lack of seating in the area<br />
prompted the community board<br />
to investigate possible options for<br />
picnic tables.<br />
The community board considered<br />
four options, ranging<br />
from $104 for a standard wooden<br />
picnic table from Mitre 10 to almost<br />
$5000 for a multi-use table<br />
tennis table and seating.<br />
The chosen concrete table itself<br />
was valued at $3175 and two concrete<br />
seats at $449 each – but because<br />
the estimated cost of $1500<br />
for installation on a concrete pad<br />
would bring the total cost above<br />
$5000, the seats were scrapped.<br />
Ms Dalziel said she “couldn’t<br />
believe it” when she heard what<br />
decision had been made.<br />
“It’s turned into a huge thing<br />
which has been going on for five<br />
months and there’s still no extra<br />
seating,” said Ms Dalziel.<br />
The decision was 3-2 – board<br />
chairwoman Ali Jones, member<br />
Jo Byrne and city councillor<br />
Pauline Cotter voted for the<br />
most expensive option, whereas<br />
member John Stringer and city<br />
councillor Mike Davidson were<br />
against the decision. Deputy<br />
chairwoman Emma Norrish was<br />
absent for the vote.<br />
Ms Byrne said she voted in<br />
favour of the more expensive option<br />
as she believed it would be<br />
“more cost-effective in the long<br />
term.”<br />
She said that the concrete was<br />
a good option as there is an issue<br />
with fire in public areas.<br />
“We were looking at something<br />
fire resistant and durable,”<br />
said Ms Byrne.<br />
She said that she has contacted<br />
Ms Dalziel to say that the board<br />
will discuss seating for either side<br />
of the table at the next meeting.<br />
But Mr Gould said that the<br />
decision not to include seating<br />
in the $5000 budget was “just a<br />
little raindrop” in questionable<br />
spending of ratepayers’ money.<br />
“This is chump change but it<br />
makes me wonder what we miss<br />
on a daily basis,” said Mr Gould.<br />
Mr Stringer was in favour of<br />
the $104 option “on the basis of<br />
safety and cost.”<br />
Mr Stringer said that he<br />
believed the decision would “go<br />
down like a cup of cold sick”<br />
with the public.<br />
He said that the concrete table<br />
would be a safety hazard for<br />
young children who could slip<br />
and bang their head.<br />

Feedback<br />
on pump<br />
track plan<br />
Fire rages, homes at risk<br />
CONSULTATION on a proposed<br />
pump track at the site of the<br />
former Shirley Community<br />
Centre will now go ahead.<br />
The city council approved a<br />
$87,850 grant for a relocatable<br />
track for bikes, scooter and skateboards.<br />
It came after the Papanui-<br />
Innes Community Board was<br />
approached by Shirley Primary<br />
School pupil Shannon Smith, who<br />
organised a petition for a bike or<br />
skate park.<br />
Board chairwoman Ali Jones<br />
said it was important to get the<br />
funding before consultation.<br />
She said there had been cases in<br />
the past where consultation has<br />
been completed only to find there<br />
was no money available.<br />
“Consulting on something<br />
creates an expectation in a community<br />
and we did not want to<br />
do that if there was no money<br />
available. In fact, as this is temporary,<br />
I am advised that we aren’t<br />
required to consult but this isn’t<br />
about what’s required, this is<br />
about talking with and listening<br />
to our community about activating<br />
a site that has not been used as<br />
a community space for more than<br />
eight years.”<br />
Safety barriers<br />
save lives<br />
Calling for exhibitors<br />
We’re putting flexible road safety barriers down the middle<br />
of State Highway 74 (QEII Drive) between Innes Road and<br />
Burwood Road.<br />
The new barriers will help stop head-on crashes.<br />
We’re also widening the road and adding side barriers and new road<br />
markings to make this road safer.<br />
There will be a new road layout and speed restrictions in place while<br />
the work is underway, so please leave an extra five<br />
minutes to get through.<br />

Feedback<br />
for park<br />
upgrades<br />
• By Jess Gibson<br />
A NEW pavilion and practice<br />
nets are on the cards for Elmwood<br />
Park.<br />
The city council is seeking<br />
feedback on a new lease for the<br />
Old Boys Collegians Cricket Club,<br />
which will allow new facilities to<br />
be built.<br />
The current pavilion was<br />
partially demolished due to<br />
earthquake damage and portable<br />
buildings were used as changing<br />
rooms until new facilities could be<br />
considered.<br />
The club has proposed to move<br />
the practice nets from alongside<br />
the main pedestrian path, which<br />
is presenting pedestrian safety<br />
issues. A concept design for a<br />
pavilion bu<br />
ilding has been developed to<br />
provide shade and shelter for the<br />
batting team, first aid, kitchen<br />
facilities and storage.<br />
It will also be able to be used by<br />
football teams during winter.<br />
Some changes to the layout of<br />
the sports fields are being planned<br />
by the city council, and the new<br />
pavilion and the nets have been<br />
positioned to avoid conflict with<br />
these.<br />

Training with the best in Spain<br />
AN UNDER-16 squad from<br />
Christchurch United Football<br />
Club has arrived in Spain where<br />
they will be hosted by the famous<br />
Valencia FC academy during a<br />
17-day trip.<br />
Valencia FC is one of the<br />
glamour clubs in the primera division<br />
and a regular in the UEFA<br />
Champions League, but the<br />
club is also famous for its player<br />
development work.<br />
The travelling party includes<br />
players from St Bede’s College,<br />
Burnside High School, St<br />
Thomas of Canterbury College<br />
and Christ’s College, who will<br />
train with the Valencia academy<br />
coaches for two weeks and play<br />
four matches against Spanish<br />
opposition.<br />
“This is a unique trip for<br />
young footballers as they will<br />
experience a professional club<br />
environment in one of the best<br />
academies in Europe,” said<br />
Christchurch United academy<br />
director Colin Williamson.<br />
The touring party spent the<br />
first few days getting over jet lag,<br />
exploring the city and playing<br />
beach football under the Mediterranean<br />
sun.<br />
Over the weekend, they also<br />
watched Valencia FC beat Levante<br />
in the primara division in<br />
the famous Mestalla Stadium,<br />
as well as watching some of the<br />
Valencia academy team matches.<br />
Christchurch United player<br />
Zach Bennett said he noted that<br />
the Valencia younsters were playing<br />
a similar style as his own<br />
team, “but the speed and the<br />
timing was very different”.<br />
Thomas Chao was mainly<br />
impressed by the size of the<br />
players compared to the New<br />
Zealanders.<br />
“They were so big and strong,<br />
they seem to be selected on their<br />
physical size,” he said.<br />
The New Zealand players<br />
were invited to Valencia after<br />
Christchurch United president<br />
Slava Meyn last year stayed with<br />
the Spanish giants to research<br />
their academy structures while<br />
he completed an international<br />
diploma in academy management.<br />
Aside from trainings and<br />
matches, the Christchurch<br />
youngsters will also watch<br />
Valencia FC play in the UEFA<br />
Europa League and travel to<br />
Barcelona to watch Lionel<br />
Messi’s team take on Real<br />
Sociedad in the famous Nou<br />
Camp stadium.<br />
“As far as a football trip is<br />
SPORT<br />
NOR’WEST NEWS<br />
SUMMER<br />
VIBES:<br />
Christchurch<br />
United junior<br />
footballers<br />
are enjoying<br />
the Spanish<br />
climate. <br />
concerned, things don’t get much<br />
better than watching Messi play<br />
in Nou Camp,” said Williamson.<br />
“The players will experience so<br />
many special moments, on and<br />
off the field, but also by watching<br />
the stars play, that will help and<br />
inspire them for years to come,”<br />
he said.<br />
