Body corporate chairman Mike White said the group had gone into mediation with IAG and EQC on February 20, and signed off on a deal with IAG on February 2 – coincidenta ly seven years to the day after the February 2, 20 1, earthquake. However, they are waiting for EQC to sign the agr ement. “Given that EQC actua ly drafted the agr ement, there’ l be no problem with them doing that.” The apartment suffered damage in the February and June, 20 1, earthquakes and were demolished in late 2012. In 2016, IAG’s offer of the difference betw en indemnity value, $10 mi lion, and the sum insured, $16 mi lion, was rejected by the body corporate. The mediation agr ement prevented Mr White from disclosing the se tlement amount, but he said it involved the two parties paying “a bit more money than they’d wanted to earlier.” •Turn to page 6 Page 7 Page 10 Fishin’ for w eds Children’s event at risk if The Groynes’ lakes not cleaned up Pedaling acro s NZ Stroke survivor finishes long journey TUESDAY, APRIL 10, 2018 www.star.kiwi Loca ly Owned www.denturesouth.co.nz ca l 32 4 04 TexT 027 537 0567 230 Ba ringTon sTr eT Mobile Service Available A NEW 60km/h sp ed limit and double ye low lines wi l be in place on Dyers Pa s Rd by early May.

Body corporate chairman Mike White said the group had gone into mediation with IAG and EQC on February 20, and signed off on a deal with IAG on February 2 – coincidenta ly seven years to the day after the February 2, 20 1, earthquake. However, they are waiting for EQC to sign the agr ement. “Given that EQC actua ly drafted the agr ement, there’ l be no problem with them doing that.” The apartment suffered damage in the February and June, 20 1, earthquakes and were demolished in late 2012. In 2016, IAG’s offer of the difference betw en indemnity value, $10 mi lion, and the sum insured, $16 mi lion, was rejected by the body corporate. The mediation agr ement prevented Mr White from disclosing the se tlement amount, but he said it involved the two parties paying “a bit more money than they’d wanted to earlier.” •Turn to page 6 Page 7 Page 10 Fishin’ for w eds Children’s event at risk if The Groynes’ lakes not cleaned up Pedaling acro s NZ Stroke survivor finishes long journey TUESDAY, APRIL 10, 2018 www.star.kiwi Loca ly Owned www.denturesouth.co.nz ca l 32 4 04 TexT 027 537 0567 230 Ba ringTon sTr eT Mobile Service Available A NEW 60km/h sp ed limit and double ye low lines wi l be in place on Dyers Pa s Rd by early May.
