Wednesday September 11 2019 News Latest Canterbury news at starnews.co.nz BAY HARBOUR PAGE 5 Residents voice crime concerns at meeting •From page 1 Senior Sergeant Appley was at the meeting and said residents were mainly concerned about crimes like property theft and damage. In response to residents’ concerns, he said police will work on having a “high profile”. “We intend on working with the community to prevent as many crimes as possible.” Police will also meet more regularly with the community board, help explore the option of security cameras and look at how police and the community can work better together. The Lyttelton Police Station is only staffed between 8am and 5pm – after that calls are taken at the Christchurch Central Police Station. Private security company Tactical Response Team has been patrolling the streets at night to bridge the gap in police presence. Its operations director Shannon Mudge said TRT is now discussing the possibility of becoming affiliated with the community patrol, as it has a good working relationship with police. City to Sumner Community Patrol chairman Allan Bain said if the patrol is able to get •From page 1 During the incident, witnesses pulled Mr Imrie out of the vehicle, but it was swept away before they were able to rescue Mrs Imrie. The memorial seat, which has a plaque paying tribute to Mrs Imrie, has been an idea of Mr Imrie’s since shortly after the crash. However, he had to wait until the section of the Christchurch Coastal Pathway was approved by the city council before it could go ahead. He has visited the site every week since the crash and hopes he will have a sense of closure now that the seat has been installed. Four flags are embellished on the plaque – the Welsh flag which represents Mrs Imrie’s birthplace and the English, Australian and New Zealand flags which symbolise the countries she lived in throughout her life.

If people are willing to, we can get them signed up,” he said. •HAVE YOUR SAY: Are you satisfied with the outcomes reached at the meeting on Sunday?

But she said it will not just be up to the police to make the difference. “I’m happy now. Hopefully it will be there forever,” he said. “We were together for 58 years, so it means a lot to me.” The Coastal Pathway is a community-driven project directed by a committee with help from the city council. The 6km path from Ferrymead to Scarborough Beach will cater for children, pedestrians, cyclists, skateboarders, and people using scooters and wheelchairs. Ms Tahau-Paton said there was an emphasis at the meeting on residents helping to reduce crimes, such as closing garage doors. “It’s up to everyone in Lyttelton to partake in it, it’s not just one-sided.” Deputy mayor and city councillor Andrew Turner said there is an “understanding on the part of the police that some work needs to be done to restore the confidence of the community. “Equally, there are some things the community can do to work better with the police in terms of reporting crime and protecting property.” •The City to Sumner Community Patrol is seeking volunteers to help out in Lyttelton.
