quarry 

plan hits 

stumbling 

block 

• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding 

FULTON HOGAN’S plan to 

open a controversial quarry near 

Weedons has hit a major road block. 

But the company is confident it 

can address the concerns raised 

by experts on its proposed 170ha 

Roydon Quarry. 

The district council and 

Environment Canterbury are 

recommending the application to 

open the quarry is declined unless 

changes are made. 

Independently prepared Section 

42A reports for the two authorities 

were released on Monday ahead of 

the quarry hearing due to start in 

November. 

Traffic issues, hours of operation 

and unclear plans on how Fulton 

Hogan will reduce major air 

pollutant PM10 are key reasons 

behind the recommendation for 

the application to be declined. 

But Fulton Hogan South Island 

general manager Craig Stewart 

said he is confident any technical 

concerns raised about traffic, 

hours of operation and dust can be 

addressed to the satisfaction of the 

community and decision-makers.

SELWYN TIMES 

THERE IS some good news – and maybe 

not so good news – for people trying 

to stop Fulton Hogan’s planned quarry 

between Weedons and Templeton (page 1). 

Environment Canterbury and the district 

council are recommending the application 

to open the quarry is declined unless changes are made. 

They relate to the number of truck movements and air quality. 

Fulton and Hogan is confident it can do that. 

So if that happens it might take the sting out of objections 

ECan and the district council have over the application to build 

the quarry. 

That is the bad news for residents. They don’t want a quarry 

on their doorsetp at all, quite reasonable considering what a 

quarry will potentially do to their quality of life and property 

values.

Keeping stock off the 

roads a focus of bylaw changes 

• By Devon Bolger 

RULES AROUND stock 

droving may be tightened in a 

bid to keep animals off roads. 

The stock droving bylaw was 

first implemented in 2008 and 

was reviewed this year. The 

review follows a series of crashes 

involving cattle over the past 

two years. 

Last year former Selwyn 

mayor Bill Woods and his 

two passengers were lucky to 

escape serious 

injury after his 

Mercedes-Benz, 

travelling at 

about 100km/h, 

collided with a 

cow. A week later, 

Pat 

McEvedy 

a 27-year-old 

motorist suffered 

serious injuries 

when she collided 

with a cow in Burnham. 

The review has led to 

proposed amendments to the 

bylaw which are considered 

of ‘significant interest’ to the 

community. They include: 

• Stock can only graze on the 

verge of a road that has a speed 

limit of 60km/h or less. 

• A stock underpass must

In a report presented 

to district councillors,

staff,” he said. 

District councillor Pat 

McEvedy said the changes will 

pose a challenge for farmers. 

“I think they need to be 

very aware of what this bylaw 

actually means to them and that 

it is important and does affect 

them,” he said. 

Cr McEvedy urges all farmers 

in the district to read up on the 

amendments and the bylaw 

in its entirety to ensure they 

understand the changes. 

The amended bylaw is due to 

be tabled at a district council 

meeting today and councillors 

will vote on adopting it for 

public consultation. 

A ‘special consultative 

procedure’ will be followed 

when handling the consultation 

due to the significance of the 

amendments. 

This means all submissions 

and meetings will be open to the 

public, and submitters will be 

given a reasonable opportunity 

to be heard. 

A subcommittee, consisting of 

two councillors appointed after 

the October local body elections, 

will consider submissions and 

report back on any changes for 

adoption.

HAVE YOUR SAY: Do you think residents should get a say on Fulton 

Hogan’s proposed changes to its Roydon Quarry plan? Email your 

views to georgia.oconnor@starmedia.kiwi 

Traffic concerns highlighted 

•From page 1 

In a new development on top 

of the release of the reports, 

residents are unhappy some 

submitters will not have a say on 

the changes made last month by 

Fulton Hogan to its original application. 

The changes include amending 

its proposal from 1500 heavy vehicle 

movements a day to a daily 

limit of 800 heavy vehicles. 

ECan and the district council 

will only accept submissions on 

whether the changes to the quarry 

application are significant enough 

that it should 

be treated as a 

completely new 

process. 

All submissions 

are 

required to be 

authored by 

legal counsel 

and are due on 

Simon Moore 

September 17. 

Only those who chose to speak at 

the hearing before the changes were 

made will have a chance to do so. 

Quarry opponent Simon Moore 

said it was “unfair” submitters 

who will not speak at the hearing 

will not have an opportunity to 

have a say on the changes. 

But he said if ECan and the 

district council are recommending 

the application be 

declined, it is a good outcome. 

ROCKY: Environment Canterbury and the district council have 

recommended consent for Fulton Hogan’s planned quarry in 

Templeton be declined. 

PHOTO: MARTIN HUNTER 

His views were backed by 

Templeton Residents’ Association 

treasurer Jolene Eagar, who said 

the biggest thing to come out of 

the report was the traffic concerns 

highlighted. 

As part of the Section 42A 

report, the district council’s 

recommendations were made 

by Andrew Henderson from 

independent engineering consultant 

Beca, while Incite resource 

management consultant Hannah 

Goslin was contracted by ECan. 

Mr Henderson said the application 

needs to have appropriate 

measures to avoid adverse effects 

arising from trucks queuing 

between the main trunk railway 

crossing and Main South Rd. 

This is a result of Fulton Hogan 

proposing to provide a vehicle access 

point from Jones Rd into the 

quarry, which is adjacent to Main 

South Rd. 

Mr Henderson’s other key 

concern is all activities proposed 

to occur between 8pm and 6am at 

the quarry need to be removed. 

Incite resource management 

consultant Hannah Goslin said 

she has not been provided with 

enough information to show 

Fulton Hogan can reliably reduce 

the discharge of PM10 (a major air 

pollutant). 

“At this time, I do not consider 

the applicant is able to comply 

with Regulation 17(1) of the National 

Standards for Air Quality,” 

she said. 

Mr Stewart said it is going over 

the detail of expert opinions and 

will be addressing this in their 

evidence, ongoing conversations 

and at the hearing.

A PROJECT to turn a pit in 

Springfield into recreation 

space is under way. 

The Springfield Township 

committee plans to create an 

area at the corner of Tramway 

Rd and Tawera Lane to bring 

the community together. 

The final concept plans for 

the project were approved by 

the committee at a meeting last 

week. 

They include a bike trail, a 

walking track and a fitness station 

as well as family-friendly 

barbecue areas. 

The plans also include native 

plantings and a nature play area 

for children. 

Committee chairman Graeme 

Dawson said he hopes the 

project unites the community 

and brings everyone together. 

“We’ve spent the last 12 

months working on these plans 

SELWYN TIMES 

and we are pretty excited to see 

them finalised,” he said. 

District council Reserves 

operations manager Jonathan 

Crawford said council staff supported 

the committee in putting 

together the proposal for 

the project and have provided 

$10,220 for it. 

Mr Dawson said they have 

cleared the pit and are now 

ready to start on the next stage 

of the project. 

“That will involve tidying up 

and then we can start planting 

and planning the tracks which 

we want the community to be 

involved in.” 

Community planting days 

will be held regularly and are 

open for all to join in and get 

involved, Mr Dawson said.

Tai Tapu piper bags 

titles at big meeting in Scotland 

• By Claire Booker 

VICTORY ON the world stage 

is no longer a pipe dream for 

Campbell Wilson. 

The 16-year-old Tai Tapu 

bagpiper won the under-18 

piobaireachd and under-18 

march, strathspey and reel 

events at the Northern Meeting 

at Inverness, Scotland. 

In the piping world, the annual 

meeting is the most prestigious 

competition for solo pipers. 

Since Campbell began piping 

when he was nine, he has 

achieved a long list of highlights 

in his career. 

He made history at the 

Hastings Highland Games 

in April when he became the 

youngest ever winner of the 

New Zealand gold medal for 

piobaireachd. 

Campbell was named New 

Zealand young piper of the year 

in 2018, and is the youngest 

ever winner of the silver chanter 

march, strathspey and reel event. 

Now he can add the two 

wins at Inverness to his already 

impressive resumé. 

Campbell said the win 

still feels surreal, and being 

surrounded by like-minded 

people was amazing. 

“I never thought I’d do so well, 

I was just there to perform to my 

potential,” he said. 

Competitors from Scotland, 

England, the United States, 

Canada and New Zealand took 

PIPES: 

Campbell 

Wilson won

piobaireachd 

and under-18 

march, 

strathspey 

and reel 

events at 

the Northern 

Meeting in 

Scotland. 

part in the annual competition. 

Campbell’s father Greg Wilson 

is one of the top pipers in the 

world – and doubles as his 

son’s tutor. Mr Wilson’s success 

includes winning 14 gold clasp 

piobaireachd competitions – an 

event which pipers can only 

compete in if they have won the 

New Zealand gold medal for 

piobaireachd. 

“My dad is very proud of my 

success. He has put in so much 

time and effort for me to be of a 

reasonable standard to compete 

in Scotland, and it definitely paid 

off. I am very appreciative of 

him, I couldn’t succeed without 

him,” Campbell said. 

He practices at least six times 

a week for 90min each session, 

and also has a lesson with his 

father every Sunday. 

“There isn’t a secret to my 

success, only that I put the work 

in and it pays off,” he said. 

Campbell will face off against 

his father at the end of next 

month in the annual Labour 

weekend competitions, and he is 

looking forward to the challenge. 

But he said his goals for the 

future are not based around 

results, as they aren’t always 

achievable – he is more focused 

on playing well. 

“It’s definitely achievable to 

have a good performance or even 

a phenomenal performance. And 

from there, results may come, 

they’re just a bonus,” he said.

WASTEWATER REPORT 

A report into costings and funding 

solutions for wastewater systems at 

Upper Selwyn Huts will be tabled 

at a district council meeting today. 

The district council voted in May 

that residents would have to pay in 

full for a new wastewater scheme 

when its current scheme expires 

in June 2020. The two wastewater 

options proposed by the council 

would cost $2.9 million and $6.2 

million. The report has been 

conducted by a working party 

comprising the mayor, the chief 

executive, the three Springs Ward 

councillors and residents.

SELWYN TIMES 

Transform 

your garden 

with a natural timber sauna 

For those seeking the ultimate in garden lifestyle, 

the answer can be found at Canterbury Saunas, says 

business owner Mark Smith. As he explains, a Finnish 

barrel sauna turns a garden into a sanctuary of 

relaxation, refreshment and rejuvenation. 

The barrels come from Finland and 

are made by a passionate family 

company, who live, breathe and 

sleep sauna, Mark says. They are 

handcrafted from Thermowood, a 

very slow-growing Nordic Spruce 

that has been heat-treated at 205 

degrees celcius for two days. The 

timber is free of resin, durable, and 

not prone to warping, so is perfect 

for sauna. Thermowood is also 25 per 

cent more thermally efficient compared to 

cedar. 

“Similar-looking saunas are available elsewhere. 

However, at Canterbury Saunas we use 45mm-thick 

timber to ensure longevity and we offer many upgrade 

options, such as windows and different lengths and 

widths. 

”People were taken aback at the recent Canterbury 

Home Show, at the quality of the ball-and-socket 

joinery and how many growth rings were on the timber 

walls – people kept coming up and stroking them,” 

Mark says. 

Unrivalled in size and options for customisation, 

Canterbury Saunas also exclusively offers 

the Huum heater range, from 4.5kw to 

18kw. The standard model holds 55kg 

of stones, which produces fabulous 

steam, and with an upgrade option 

the heater can be controlled 

remotely with a smart phone. 

For a more rustic feel, clients can 

also upgrade to a traditional woodburning 

heater, perfect for people in 

remote locations. 

Mark says sauna compares well to a 

conventional spa pool, without the need to 

run the heater constantly. He has used his St Albans 

sauna several times a week for over a year and has 

found that the electricity costs are about $2 a session. 

Virtually maintenance free, there are no slippery steps, 

filters to be changed or harsh chemicals to add to the 

sauna – a quick sweep out and wipe down every few 

weeks is sufficient. Oiling the outside of the timber 

once a year is also recommended. 

Published studies from the University of Bristol, which 

used very large study groups over 20 years, have 

come back with some interesting findings, Mark says. 

Regular use of Finnish-style saunas can reduce blood 

pressure and the chance of stroke. It also benefits 

skin condition and eases breathing problems. Soft 

tissue aches and pains are also eased in the heat of 

sauna. Finally, the barrel shape and quiet environment 

combine to create a feeling of peace and sanctuary 

away from the hectic pace of life.

Ease aches and pains away with a Scandinavian

1. Saunas only use power when in use. 

2. Saunas aren’t noisy. 

3. Easier to keep clean with no need for chemicals. 

4. Enjoyable in any weather, cocooned from

5. Safer – no slippery steps, level floor, and easy to get

6. Lower maintenance because there’s only one 

working part, the heater.

Quake survivor hit by thieves 


CHEEKY THIEVES are stealing 

plants from a West Melton 

couple’s roadside stall. 

More than $200 of plants 

home-grown by Brian and Helen 

Coker have been stolen from 

their Stoneycrop stall on Halkett 

Rd. 

“We are very disappointed. 

I like to think it’s a part of our 

Kiwi culture that we have these 

roadside stalls and the majority 

of people are honest but some 

just ruin it for everyone,” Mr 

Coker said. 

It’s the fourth time the stall 

has been targetted this year, the 

Coker’s have previously had their 

honesty box taken on several 

occasions. 

Mr Coker lost both his legs 

in the Christchurch earthquake 

on Feburary 22, 2011. He 

was pinned under concrete 

in the collapsed Pyne Gould 

Corporation building. 

Later Mr and Mrs Coker 

began a project to create a dream 

garden at their home. 

Mrs Coker took on the majority 

of the work and they won 

Garden of the Year in 2015. 

The plants from the stall come 

directly from that garden and 

mean a lot to them, Mr Coker 

said. 

“When you’ve spent so much 

time growing and nurturing 

them and to have somebody just 

take them, it really isn’t a great 

feeling,” he said. 

After all of the thefts, the couple 

have begun questioning if it’s 

worth carrying on. 

“We still want to keep going 

but to lose this amount of plants 

in one go is very disheartening 

and it does make you think. 

“Its disappointing people 

aren’t honest,” Mr Coker 

said. 

The couple said they will look 

into installing security cameras 

to ensure it doesn’t happen again 

The thieves took two trays 

totalling around 40 plants and 

other specific plants of more 

value. 

“They were quite selective with 

what they took so I suspect it was

Mounted games 

to take place 

in Ellesmere 

ELLESMERE WILL host the 

South Island’s first international 

mounted games competition next 

month. 

Teams from South Africa, 

Australia, Canada, United States, 

Pakistan and New Zealand will 

battle it out in the fast-paced 

equestrian sport. 

The competition will be held at 

the Ellesmere A&P show on October 

19 at Leeston showgrounds. 

Mounted games is a branch of 

equestrian sport in which games 

are played by people on ponies up 

to a height of 15 hands. 

West Melton resident Leah 

Zydenbos, 17, will compete in the 

national team for the event. 

In 2017 she was named NZ’s top 

under-17 individual rider and is 

one of only two Cantabrians on 

the team. 

Canterbury Mounted Games 

Association president Sue Robertson 

said they are delighted to 

be hosting the 2019 Nations Team 

Championship. 

“It’s no accident Canterbury 

was chosen as the destination 

for the competition. Our small, 

but enthusiastic committee 

loves to hone talent and create 

opportunities for our riders across 

all ages,” she said.

THE ROLLESTON Central 

Probus Club is up-and-running 

and looking for members. 

Club member Lisa Paget said 

the group caters for retired and 

semi-retired people in the community. 

“Our new Probus club is well 

on its way, but we still would love 

to see more new members and 

are welcoming everyone to come 

along to our next meeting,” she 

said. 

At the group’s last meeting they 

had a great turn out and special 

guests, Ms Paget said. 

“We had a fantastic, humorous 

and very interesting speaker 

Richard Blakeborough who told 

us about his journey after suffering 

from a heart attack.” 

The club also has regular outings, 

the first was to the Silver 

Dollar for lunch which was much 

enjoyed by all, she said. 

Meetings of the Rolleston 

Central Probus Club are held 

on the third Tuesday of every

Group gets $2500 to trap predators 


KIRWEE RESIDENTS are 

being given the chance to get on 

top of pest numbers in the area. 

Predator Free Kirwee, 

formally Kirwee Trappers, has 

received $2500 from the district 

council to buy rat traps. 

The group is beginning with 

rats as they 

are the most 

common pest 

and are the 

easiest traps 

to use. 

A particularly 

bad 

Nicci Dillon 

mast season 

has seen pest 

numbers rise across the country. 

“This year has seen the biggest 

mast season for many years and 

the abundant seed is fuelling 

rodent breeding through the 

winter,” a Department of Conservation 

spokesperson said. 

A mast occurs when trees and 

plants produce high amounts 

of seed and fruits that attract 

predators. 

Group member Nicci Dillon 

said they’re excited the plan is 

going ahead. 

“The head of the group, Kelvin 

Sewell, and I have been working 

hard to secure funding for the 

traps and are delighted that the 

‘I went home and thought that’s bloody it, we’re gonna get 

rid of some of these critters.’ – Nicci Dillon 

council has come on board to 

supply them,” she said. 

The vision is to get the community 

involved in backyard 

trapping to eradicate pests in 

Kirwee. 

‘I have a lifestyle block near 

the Waimak and a while back I 

had a ferret run across my lawn 

with a rabbit in its mouth and 

then a week later I was walking 

in a reserve and a stoat ran out 

in front of me. 

“I went home and thought 

that’s bloody it, we’re gonna get 

rid of some of these critters.” 

CAUGHT: A rat and a weasel 

trapped by Predator Free 

Kirwee as part of a bid to 

manage pest numbers in the 

area. 

District council biodiversity 

co-ordinator Andrew Spanton 

said protecting native wildlife is 

incredibly important. 

“Given that there are many 

native restoration and enhancement 

planting projects going 

on – with the notion of creating 

habitat for native birds – then we 

need associated and joined up 

actions to rid the sites of predators,” 

he said. 

The group will now make and 

source the traps before reaching 

out to residents. 

“We’re gonna start in the 

community itself, concentrating 

on getting rap traps into every 

house,” Ms Dillon said. 

•Predator Free Kirwee will 

have a tent at the Courtenay 

A&P show on November 

23 to give information to 

the community about the 

project and how to trap

Storage King 

recognised for 

fundraising 

A ROLLESTON business 

has been recognised for its 

contribution to the community. 

Storage King won the 

community engagement award 

at the Self Storage Industries of 

Australasia awards last week. 

The business has been actively 

involved in fundraising for 

organisations. 

It also sponsors Rolleston 

rugby, the Rolleston Warriors, 

Rolleston softball, Rolleston 

netball, the Waikirikiri Hockey 

Club, and Selwyn United’s first 

kicks programme. 

Manager Chris O’Brien said it 

couldn’t have done it without the 

Selwyn community’s help. 

“Selwyn has a highly-engaged 

community that loves to be 

part of initiatives, not-for-profit 

organisations and supporting 

local. We identified this quickly 

and were able to work alongside 

community individuals and 

groups to help achieve the kind of 

engagement normally seen only 

after years of work,” he said. 

“We want to say thanks for 

their amazing contribution 

towards receiving such an award 

and we very much look forward 

to serving the communities of 

Selwyn for many more years to 

come.” 

Help schools play together 

LEMONWOOD Grove and 

Waitaha schools need the 

community’s help to build a 

shared playground so the pupils 

to play together. 

The two schools share a site at 

Rolleston. 

Lemonwood Grove opened 

in 2017 and Waitaha School, 

a special education facility, 

opened a year after with 50-60 

students aged from five to 

21-years-old. 

Waitaha School principal 

Maureen Allan said the 

playground will allow the pupils 

to build relationships with each 

other. 

“We decided to collaborate on 

this project because we want a 

shared space for the learners to 

play alongside one another,” she 

said. 

The playground is expected to 

cost about $70,000 with the bulk 

of the money going towards 

special requirements like safety 

matting and fencing. 

Lemonwood Grove principal 

Sean Bailey said he is excited 

about the project and the 

opportunities it will provide. 

In a bid to raise the money, the 

schools have been fundraising, 

and the Lemonwood Grove 

LINK committee (PTA) will run 

a quiz night with the Waitaha 

School Board. 

SHARE: Pupils at Lemonwood Grove and Waitaha schools may soon be sharing a new 

playground, but need help to get the planned facility (below) up and running. 

Fundraising co-ordinator 

Cherie King said she has 

enjoyed collaborating on the 

project and bringing the two 

school communities together. 

The quiz night will be held on

Underdogs co-operate ahead of semis 

SPORT 

• By Jacob Page 

LINCOLN A and Greenpark

training run on Thursday night 

to help each other win their 

respective Selwyn premier

Lincoln A beat Southbridge

Lincoln A coach Dawn

beneficial for both teams as they 

try to prevent Greenpark A and

second straight final. 

“When we have pushed the top 

teams. We’ve done it with a fast

Rolleston teen on the road 

to Youth Olympics gold rush 

• By Jacob Page 

ROLLESTON College 

cyclist Nick Rush has lofty 

goals and he knows hard 

work is the best way to 

achieve them. 

Even on a rainy Sunday, 

he is on his bike for a 

training ride up Summit 

Rd. 

The 14-year-old, who has 

competed at both road and 

mountain bike nationals 

in the past 12 months, 

wants to make the Youth 

Olympics on the road in 

2022. 

“Most of my mountain 

biking helps my hill work 

and then on the road I 

mostly ride on the flat.” 

Nick dominated the 

Canterbury secondary 

schools cycling Southern 

Tour in Blenheim last 

week. 

Not only did he win 

the overall under-15 

yellow jersey category, he 

also won the time trial, 

hill climb, king of the 

mountain and sprint titles. 

“I was expecting to do 

well but I wasn’t expecting 

to win everything. The hill 

climb win was really good, 

because I’m quite solid and 

there are others with better 

body types to go quick up 

inclines. 

“A result like that always 

gives me confidence.”

North at the end of the 

month and the mountain 

bike nationals are in 

Dunedin a week later. 

Last year he finished 

third for his age on the 

road and fifth in the points 

race. Nick trains eight to 

10 hours a week – half 

on the road and half on a 

stationary bike at home. 

“There are some good 

20min climbs up the 

Summit Rd and while it’s 

tough, it really pushes me 

to do better.” 

Nick said strong 

performances on the 

national stage will put 

him on the pathway to his 

Youth Olympics dream.

Walking Festival puts 

spring in step 

Foster Park in bloom 

Thousands of daffodils are bringing a bright splash of colour to 

Foster Park. 

The wildflower daffodil garden of 20,000 daffodils planted by 

volunteers and Council staff at the park is blooming. People are 

encouraged to enjoy the flowers while they last, but please don’t 

pick them. 

Spring is here and with it the opportunity to get out and explore more of the beautiful countryside 

around the district. 

The annual Breeze Walking Festival is offering guided walks to discover and enjoy of some of 

Selwyn’s beautiful walk trails. 

Four great walks throughout the district will be part of the festival from at the start of October. 

From a tramp to enjoy 360 degree mountain views, to a quick sneak through one of the only 

places in New Zealand where you can see the muted swan, or an introduction to the history of 

Māori pathways through the land and spectacular flora and fauna at Kura Tawhiti/Castle Hill, 

there’s something for all ages and interests.

Motorcycle Awareness Month 

September is Motorcycle Awareness Month and people are being reminded to look twice for motorcycles. 

September marks the start of the riding season for many motorcyclists in New Zealand. It is the month 

when over half of all motorcyclists get their bikes out of the garage, get back on the road and look 

forward to the long summer of riding. It’s an important time for all motorists to know that they’ll see 

more motorcycles on the road. The Council is supporting the national campaign, reminding people to 

look twice, especially at intersections and before changing lanes, and to check blind spots. 

Make it click! 

Not only is it the law to wear a 

seatbelt, it’s a really good idea. 

Find out about Council 

election contenders 

With just over a week to go until voting opens in the 2019 local 

elections, it’s time to start getting to know the candidates. 

Voting packs will be delivered to all enrolled voters from 20 

September. The election is held by postal vote, and voting papers 

must be received by the Council before 12 midday on Election Day, 

Saturday 12 October 2019. 

Your voting pack will include a booklet with profile statements from 

all candidates – but you can find out who the candidates are and 

view their profile statements now, on the Council’s elections web 

page at selwyn.govt.nz/elections. 

Altogether, 25 nominations were received for the 17 vacancies in the 

upcoming Council elections. 

Elections will be required in all Council Wards, but will not be 

required for the Malvern Community Board (Tawera and Hawkins 

subdivisions), where the number of nominations received matched 

the number of vacancies. 

Deputy electoral officer Stephen Hill says it’s pleasing to see 

the number of people putting their hands up to be involved in 

local democracy. 

“It’s especially encouraging to see several first-time candidates who 

are standing to represent their local wards,” he says. “Now it’s up 

to the people of Selwyn to have their say. We hope people take the 

time to find out about their local candidates, and return their voting 

papers in plenty of time.” 

Selwyn District Council is participating in Local Government New 

Zealand’s Vote 2019 campaign, which aims to lift nationwide voter 

turnout in local elections and increase people’s engagement with 

their local council. 

Meet the candidate evenings 

Public ‘Meet the Candidate’ meetings are expected to be held in a 

number of locations across the district during the election period. 

These meetings are not organised by the Council. They are generally 

organised by local community groups. Anyone organising public 

meetings, which are open to all candidates, can send the event 

details to electoral.officer@selwyn.govt.nz and we will endeavour to 

list these in Council Call and on our website. 

Upcoming meet the candidate meetings are being held at 

these locations:

New garden expo offers opportunities 

Green-fingered Selwyn residents are being offered the opportunity to join a giant expo showcasing the 

best of gardening in the district. 

West Melton Garden Club will be running the Selwyn Garden Expo at the West Melton Community 

Centre on Sunday, 1 December. 

The club is seeking expressions of interest from those who may be interested in having a stall at the event. 

It is the first time the club has run the expo. Club president Anne Finch says the idea came about after 

securing a visit from broadcaster, author and former New Zealand Garden editor Lynda Hallinan. 

“We had Lynda coming and thought it was a chance to give others 

the opportunity to hear her too. We’re aiming to showcase the many 

different garden related activities and businesses in Selwyn and 

nearby areas and promote gardening.” 

The expo has already attracted interest from a wide range of groups 

in addition to the usual gardening businesses, she says. 

“Anything we can relate to gardening we’ve got coming. We have 

many producers in the area like walnut growers, saffron, truffles, 

homemade Italian cheeses. We have at least one winery, an 

overseas garden tour organiser, garden sculptures, pots and plant 

markers, landscapers, and plants galore, to name a few. We’re quite 

open to considering anyone who is interested.” 

The expo will also feature music, and food and drink stalls, along 

with three or four demonstrations or talks in addition to the 

presentation by Lynda Hallinan and the club is open to people who 

are interested in making a presentation, Mrs Finch says. 

Anyone interested in taking part in the expo can email 

selwyngardenexpo@gmail.com or call Anne Finch on 027 436 5156.

Backyard Critters 

Earthworms matter 

Mike Bowie is an ecologist who specialises in 

entomology (insects and other invertebrates). 

Each week he introduces a new species found in 

his backyard at Lincoln. His column aims to raise 

public awareness of biodiversity, the variety of 

living things around us. Check out the full list of 

invertebrates found at http://naturewatch.org.nz/projects/ 

backyard-biodiversity-bugs-in-lincoln 

CHARLES DARWIN’S work on 

earthworms is not as well known 

as his significant publications on 

the origin of species by means of 

natural selection. 

However, he did recognise the 

importance of earthworms in the 

role of breaking down organic 

matter and drainage of soils. 

Earthworms in New Zealand 

also provide a food source for 

many birds, including our iconic 

kiwi, and also large carnivorous 

snails plus many species of 

flatworms. 

New Zealand has 23 exotic 

and more than 200 endemic 

earthworm species. Many of our 

endemic species would likely 

have become extinct with land 

and wetland clearance. Exotic 

earthworms introduced from 

Europe have largely replaced 

native species on farmland 

and in some cases have been 

intentionally released to increase 

production. New Zealand’s 

largest documented earthworm 

is 1.3m and is relatively short 

compared to the 5m giant 

found in Australia. One of New 

Zealand’s more common exotic 

species in disturbed habitats is 

Lumbricus terrestris (above), 

sometimes called the night 

crawler. This reddish earthworm 

typically reaches 20-25cm in 

length. Adults are identified by 

the reproductive organ called 

the clitellum, a lighter-coloured 

thickening on their body nearer 

to the head end. The location of 

the clitellum along the body can 

be used to distinguish between 

endemic and exotic earthworms. 

Earthworms are hermaphrodites 

and use their clitellum in 

reproduction. Contrary to 

common belief, earthworms cut in 

half do not grow into two worms. 

Only sections containing the head 

and clitellum can survive; the rear 

end will not survive. 

Bidding farewell to Italy 

OUR FINAL days here in Italy 

have arrived in what seems like 

a flash. 

Now we’re faced yet again with 

saying goodbye to friends and 

relatives, with hopeful boasts of 

returning again in three years. 

There’s also the upcoming long 

flights with Vittoria. 

We’ve wisely included a fourday 

stopover in Brisbane to catch 

up with people and re-adjust our 

body clocks to the Antipodean 

cycle. 

To be honest, due to the magic 

of international time zones, 

newspaper deadlines and my 

inability to write these while 

chasing my daughter around a 

metal tube with wings 30,000ft 

above the ground – we’re likely 

already in Australia as you read 

this. 

We’ve managed to fit quite a 

bit into our last week, including 

taking Vittoria on her first train 

rides. 

Over three days we forged a 

rough triangle around northwest 

Italy to visit some of Laura’s 

relatives who live in Turin and 

Pisa (obligatory Leaning Tower 

photo time). 

The trip was particularly 

special as it was the first time 

said relatives had met Laura, let 

alone Vittoria. 

Vittoria was great with them, 

OPEN SPACE: Vittoria at 

Piazza San Marco in Venice. 

and like all her family here, she 

warmed to them quickly and 

was soon rushing to them for 

cuddles after only knowing them 

for a matter of hours. 

Fortunately my wee darling 

even behaved herself on the up 

to four-hour train journeys, 

giving us the confidence needed 

to take her to Venice on Friday. 

I was fully against letting her 

out of her pram there as the 

headline “Kiwi toddler rescued 

from Venetian canal” practically 

writes itself. It also goes along 

VITTORIA 

& Matt 

SELWYN TIMES 

with the phrase “father’s 

decisions questioned”. 

Lucky for me, Vittoria seemed 

to agree, and was content to 

watch her parents sweat to death 

under the baking sun while we 

carried her pram over the city’s 

billion or so canal bridges on the 

two-hour expedition to Piazza 

San Marco. 

She was so relaxed that she fell 

asleep briefly as we arrived in the 

famous square. 

However, against my better 

judgement, we let her out there 

(after she woke up) so she could 

take a run about the place I 

asked her mother to marry me. 

In another fit of good luck, 

grapes worked as a bribe to get 

her back in for the return trek 

and the only downside of the 

adventure was a scrapped knee. 

I hope such luck holds out for 

the return home.

lebanese cucumber, unpeeled, 

shaved into ribbons 

1 green mango, peeled, shaved 

into ribbons 

1 small bunch coriander leaves 

1 small bunch Thai basil leaves 

2 wing beans, finely sliced 

Squeeze of lemon juice 

Pinch of sugar 

Olive oil 

Directions 

Season the fish with salt and 

pepper and a drizzle of oil. 

Place the soaked dried chillies 

and garlic in a food processor 

and blend until a fine paste. 

Heat two tablespoons of oil in 

a small saucepan over medium 

heat, add the shrimp paste and 

mash with a wooden spatula. 

Cook for 1min until the shrimp 

paste becomes fragrant and 

starts to toast. 

Add the chilli garlic paste 

and continue to cook, stirring 

frequently, until fragrant. 

Add the gula melaka and cook 

until dark, glossy and sticky. 

Slowly pour in the tamarind 

puree. Cook until slightly 

thickened, then stir in the lemon 

juice and sprinkle on the kaffir 

lime leaves. Remove from heat 

and set aside. 

Heat a non-stick fry pan over 

high heat. Place the fish pieces 

skin side down evenly around 

the pan and cook until crisp and 

golden. 

To ensure that the skin is 

evenly crispy, you may need to 

gently press with a spatula to 

keep the skin flat on the pan. 

Turn over, and cook the other 

side until three-quarter cooked. 

Pour over the tamarind chilli 

sauce and toss very gently to just 

coat. Be careful not to break up 

the fish pieces. 

Combine the salad ingredients, 

and dress with lemon juice, 

sugar and olive oil just before 

serving. 

Transfer the fish to a serving 

plate along with all the sauce 

and top with the green mango, 

cucumber and herb salad. 

Sprinkle with crispy shallots and 

serve immediately. 

Note: Adjust the quantity 

of the large, red dried chillies 

according to your taste. Also, 

leave the seeds in if you like 

the dish extra spicy, otherwise, 

deseed them. 

In any case, soak the chillies in 

hot water until softened before 

using them.

PhysioSteps is rebranding 

PhysioSteps, located in West

with Caitlin and Shaun Clark, has

whole person, rather than just 

applying a ‘band aid’ to the 

sore area” Kayla says, “We like 

to assess the injury and offer 

a clear diagnosis with a full 

explanation so you know what 

is happening and what we suggest. 

We also then give you advice on how 

to prevent this happening again.”

Tips for checking a diesel vehicle 

If taking your vehicle in for its regular 

service keeps getting shelved or it only 

gets a quick look over, you might be 

have an expensive repair bill in the 

future. The same situation could occur, 

if you purchase a diesel vehicle without 

thoroughly checking it over. 

Phil Thompson, co-owner of Diesel Fix 

in Rolleston has provided a list of things 

you can do yourself before purchasing a 

diesel vehicle. Following these tips will 

also help you keep an eye on your vehicle’s 

condition over time. 

1. Examine the exhaust to see if there is 

any excessive build-up of soot. This usually 

means there is a problem with the engine 

combustion or in the exhaust itself. 

2. Check the colour of the oil on the 

dipstick. If a white or milky substance, it is 

an indication of internal engine problems 

Modified pump and injectors. 

so best to avoid the vehicle and look for a 

better buy. 

3. Look underneath for any signs of oil 

leaks and around the engine compartment 

for any hint of oil or coolant leaks. These 

are more clues of an unhealthy engine. 

4. A common problem with diesel 

vehicles is they are notoriously bad starters 

in chilly weather so try starting the vehicle 

from a cold start. There are a number of 

reasons for a long delay in starting and it 

is wise to get these diagnosed before they 

turn into more serious and expensive 

issues. 

5. The coolant inside the radiator should 

be clean and have little ‘gunk’ in it. Where 

the coolant is contaminated, the vehicle 

has issues. 

6. While the car is running, take a 

look at the exhaust fumes. A light black 

colour is good but if it is too thick or is of 

a white colour, there is a problem within 

the engine. It may be that the fuel/air 

ratio is incorrect due to faulty injectors, 

low compressions, incorrect timing, or 

incomplete combustion. 

7. Take the vehicle out for a test drive to 

see how it handles, noting any excessive 

smoke or undue engine noise. Feel for any 

vibrations; how the steering feels; whether 

there is any hesitation in the power; and 

how the engine performs. 

8. Make sure there are no check-lights 

remaining on, on the dashboard. 

If you have any questions about your 

own diesel vehicle or one you are looking 

to buy, Phil who is a qualified Automotive 

and Diesel Fuel Injection Engineer is 

happy to advise you. 

If you already own a diesel vehicle, 

regular servicing will go a long way to 

keeping it on the road so call 0274 368 

154 or 03 347 7108 today, to book your 

vehicle in for a full service.

Mercedes-Benz puts boot into A-Class 

Motoring 

Ross Kiddie 

I HAVE A certain amount of 

affection for the Mercedes-Benz 

A Class. When that model first 

appeared in 1998 it was the first 

car from that company I had a 

chance to evaluate. 

It also stood out for controversy, 

Scandinavian drivers were 

very sceptical of the A-Class, it 

was claimed it didn’t pass the local 

elk test – an evasive manoeuvre 

procedure. However, as you 

would expect from Mercedes- 

Benz, evolving safety systems 

have long put that rationale to the 

bin. 

The A-Class has been a solid 

seller in the small hatchback 

market, and I’ve come to really 

like the entry-level vehicle into 

this luxury car brand. It must also 

be said that I’m even more excited 

about the range for it now includes 

a sedan and, what’s more, 

it’s a beauty in terms of practicality 

and driveability. 

Sure, the basic fundamentals of 

the A-Class haven’t been interfered 

with, however, it is a little 

longer at 4549mm compared for 

4419mm for the hatchback, but 

that is marginal, and for the extra 

versatility I’d certainly throw my 

hat in the ring for one. 

It also looks special, I’ve made 

MERCEDES-BENZ A200: Available in hatchback or sedan. 

no secret of my desire for the 

traditional, and the A-Class sedan 

looks sporty and almost sits apart 

from the hatchback it is based on. 

The fundamental mechanicals 

are also still the same, the engine 

sits transversely under the bonnet 

and drive is sent to the front 

wheels. 

The A-Class sedan lands here 

with two turbocharged engine 

options – A180 and A200. Effectively, 

it’s the same four-cylinder 

engine other than varying power 

outputs; the A180 gets 100kW 

and 200Nm, the A200 gets higher 

turbo boost, lifting the ratings to 

120kW and 250Nm. 

Interestingly, the engine is just 

1.3-litre, but if you are thinking 

it’s a little underwhelming then 

you had better think again. 

I’ve recently evaluated the B180 

which shares the 100kW engine 

and it punches well above its 

weight in terms of performance. 

Forcing an extra 20kW and 

50Nm through the system, the 

A200 feels feisty and lively, the 

engine is one of the sweetest you’d 

ever get a chance to experience, 

and it delights in meeting throttle 

request. 

Power is directed through a 

seven-speed dual-clutch transmission 

– effectively you treat it 

as an automatic, there is no clutch 

pedal. The gearbox is characterised 

by quick shifts and ratios 

which extract the power well and 

provide the economy an A-Class 

buyer would be searching for. 

Mercedes-Benz claims a 5.7-litre 

per 100km (49mpg) combined 

cycle average for the 1332cc unit. 

During my time in the evaluation 

car the fuel usage readout 

was constantly listing around 

7l/100km (41mpg), while a 

4.5l/100km (63mpg) figure is on 

offer instantaneously at 100km/h, 

the engine turning over at just 

1800rpm. 

On the subject of figures, the 

A-Class sedan claims an 8.1sec 

standstill to 100km/h time, 

while it will also complete an 

overtaking manoeuvre (80km/h- 

120km/h) in 5sec. 

All of these figures stack up to 

provide wallet-friendly motoring 

along with satisfactory performance. 

What’s more, the A-Class 

is a darn nice thing to drive, it is 

quiet, comfortable, and provides 

a feel that initiates confidence and 

security within the car. 

When presented with a few 

tight corners, the A-Class steers 

with precision. Grip in the first 

instance is provided by Hungarian-moulded 

Hankook tyres 

which measure 225/45 x 18in, 

even though their profile is a little 

low ride comfort isn’t jeopardised, 

the fully independent suspension 

is all class, ruts and bumps 

are willingly absorbed, while the 

firming is such that body balance 

stays controlled. 

At just over 1.4m tall the A- 

Class sedan doesn’t move much 

over the suspension and because 

there’s not a lot of weight in the 

car (1350kg), gravitational force 

doesn’t work against balance. 

The A-Class sedan is what I 

• Price – Mercedes-Benz 

A200 sedan, $62,900 

• Dimensions – Length, 

4549mm; width, 1796mm; 

height, 1440mm 

• Configuration – Fourcylinder, 

front-wheel-drive, 

1332cc, 120kW, 250Nm, 

seven-speed automatic. 

• Performance – 

0-100km/h, 8.1sec 

• Fuel usage – 5.7l/100km 

would call realistically priced. 

At $62,900 in standard form it 

comes complete with much of 

the kit that I’d be comfortable 

with. There’s a huge option list 

and buyers will no doubt explore 

that willingly. The evaluation car 

had a few extras added in such as 

driving assistant and seat comfort 

packages, which added just over 

$3k to the list price. 

There’s no doubt that Mercedes- 

Benz will have to market the 

A-Class sedan well. Sedans aren’t 

selling in large numbers any more 

and those that are in the market 

are all quality and compete on 

largely equal terms. The A-Class 

sits $14k above what you’d pay for 

say a Mazda3 Limited, that being 

the case, it needs to be good, and 

I can safely say that it is. 

If you also look at the bigger 

picture and are thinking of 

buying into one of the world’s 

greatest luxury/sporty brands, 

you can do that for a smidgeon 

over $60k, that in itself has much 

appeal.

We have officially hit Spring! 

September can be an up and down 

month weather-wise so don’t feel like you 

need to rush out and get all your planting 

done right away. Weather predictions 

are showing some uncertainty with what 

we may get over the next few weeks so 

we suggest you look to raise seeds and 

seedlings inside before planting them out 

later this month and into October. 

GrowinG from Seed 

SPrUCinG UP YoUr GArdenS 

This is a great activity to get you started and give 

you a head start on the growing season without 

risking your hard work being undone. Late frosts 

and heavy rain can not only dampen your soil, but 

also your spirits if you have planted out and then 

lose your plants to bad weather.

Your health is your biggest asset so you want to 

protect it as well as you can. Gardening has many 

health benefits, but safety measures should be 

taken to protect yourselves from the sun as well 

as Legionnaires Disease. The old saying slip, slop, 

slap and wrap applies here, and we also suggest to 

slip on some gloves and slap on a mask. For more 

detailed information head to our website for our 

safety guide.

You can start sprouting seed potatoes now, ready 

to plant out into garden plots, raised beds or pots 

and containers. 

We have a handy 6 pack or a larger 2kg bag of 

Agria, Jersey Benne and Haylo in store and online. 

Head to our website for a handy guide to growing

Organic Compost and Sheep Pellets can 

be mixed through existing soils now to 

give them a boost of nutrients. 

If you are creating new garden beds, 

Garden Soil Mix is excellent for this as 

it contains 50% screened soil and 50%

Veggie Garden Mix for creating raised 

beds. This mix comes ready to go with a 

controlled release fertiliser that will give 

your plants the nutrients they need for 

healthy growth.

Weeds love competing with your plants for space and 

nutrients in the garden. You will need to keep on top of

establishing themselves. When removing them, make 

sure you remove the roots as well, being careful not to 

spread any seeds at the same time.

Gardening 

Sunshine brings up the soil temperature 

SPRING HAS finally arrived. 

Temperatures will still be a bit 

up and down this month, but 

overall, they are on the rise. There 

is plenty for gardeners to do, 

especially preparing vegetable and 

flower gardens for planting. 

Vegetable garden 

Harvest the remainder of your 

winter veges and remove any that 

have finished. Improve the soil by 

adding plenty of new compost. 

Where soils are not too wet, you 

can now plant hardier vegetables 

for summer harvesting, these 

include; asparagus, beetroot, 

cabbage, cauliflower, carrots, 

onion, radish, silverbeet and 

spinach. 

Flowering annuals and 

shrubs 

Begin preparing for your summer 

flower garden. It’s a little 

early to plant traditional summer 

annuals, so start with good 

all-rounders; such as alyssum, 

calendulas, cornflowers, lobelia, 

pansies and violas. 

You can raise your own summer 

annuals seedlings by sowing 

seeds into fresh seed raising mix 

now. It’s important to use fresh 

mix to ensure healthy, diseasefree 

seedlings. Place pots or trays 

in a warm north-facing spot 

indoors or outdoors in a greenhouse, 

and water regularly to 

ensure even germination. New 

seedlings should be ready for 

planting around five-six weeks. 

Give flowering winter shrubs 

that have finished flowering, like 

azaleas and camellias, a light ‘tidy 

up’ prune where needed. 

Bulbs 

Mark the position of your late 

winter/early spring flowering 

bulbs if you want to grow annuals 

and perennials in the same area 

over summer. It will save the 

heartache of accidentally digging 

them up when planting, Allow 

any bulbs that have flowered 

brilliantly to naturalise (growing 

and seeding as they would naturally 

in the wild) in your garden, 

especially freesias, hyacinth, iris, 

lachenalias, muscari, narcissus 

and watsonias. 

Roses 

New Zealand spring and early 

summer is a marvellous time for 

roses with masses of stunning 

blooms, and plants are typically 

disease free. If you do notice signs 

of disease or pests – spray immediately. 

Remember once you commit 

to spraying, you must follow 

a regular regime throughout the 

season. Apply rose fertiliser every 

five to six weeks from late September 

(always avoid fertilising 

over the hot summer months). 

Fruit trees and 

strawberries 

Stone fruit are in full flower, 

as are pip fruit like apples and 

VULNERABLE:

of your late 

winter/early 

spring flowering 

bulbs so you 

don’t accidentally 

dig them up. 

pears. Fingers crossed for favourable 

weather conditions (sunny 

days and no strong winds) as it’s 

critical for pollination by bees. 

Unfortunately, heavy rain and 

strong winds can have a major 

impact on pollination resulting in 

limited fruit. 

Early strawberry varieties are 

beginning to set fruit. Keep a 

good layer of pea straw or hay 

(mulch) around the plants to 

keep berries clean and healthy. 

With other berry plants such as 

raspberries and boysenberries, 

apply a copper oxychloride spray 

to help prevent the occurrence of 

summer disease. 

Herbs 

Plant your new seasons herbs. 

Because many herbs are Mediterranean 

plants, they prefer a warm, 

sunny position in well-drained 

soil and will struggle in dark, 

shady locations. You can easily 

grow herbs from seed; try basil, 

borage, chives, coriander, dill, 

fennel, parsley, rosemary, sage 

and thyme. They can also grow 

from cuttings, especially thyme, 

sage, rosemary and tarragon. 

Container gardens 

It’s changeover time for flowering 

annual displays. Violas and 

pansies and ‘potted colour’ varieties 

make excellent displays during 

spring before you plant traditional 

summer annuals. Always 

clean pots between seasons and 

use fresh container mix. 

Lawns 

You will notice new season 

grass growth beginning. Apply 

lawn fertiliser from late September 

and avoid mowing too ‘close’ 

initially in spring – you don’t 

want to ‘scalp’ the lawn. Check 

your lawn mower blades are 

sharp to make the cut cleaner; 

otherwise they can tear out the 

grass and damage growth. 

Top tip: As the soil warms in 

spring, mulch new and existing 

plants in the garden or pots to 

help suppress weeds and aid water 

retention over the dry summer 

months.

SELWYN TIMES 

Gardening 

Plant hardy veges for summer harvest 

TASTE: Find a dry piece of soil and get onions in the ground now. 

IT’S TIME for gardeners to 

celebrate. 

Temperatures are on the 

rise, producing signs of spring 

throughout the garden. 

September can be a wet and 

windy month so ensure you still 

protect plants where need be. It’s a 

busy but very enjoyable time, with 

colour and scents slowly coming 

back into the garden. 

Final harvesting and removal of 

winter maturing vegetables gives 

plenty of material for the compost 

bin. By staggering planting times, 

hopefully these vegetables have 

supplied you with continuous 

supplies over winter. 

Where conditions allow, ie soil 

not too wet and temperatures 

rising in your area, you can plant 

the hardier vegetables for summer 

harvesting. Remember the more 

traditional summer vegetables 

will be planted next month. 

Those veges can include; asparagus, 

beetroot, cabbage, cauliflower, 

carrots, onion, radish, silverbeet 

and spinach. Improve existing 

vege plots with plenty of compost 

before planting the new seasons 

vegetables. Keep a wary eye for 

slugs and snails as they emerge 

when temperatures increase. 

Time for preparing your summer 

flowering garden. Winter annuals 

are now coming to an end 

of their flowering. While it’s still a 

little early for planting traditional 

summer annuals, there are some 

that ‘transcend’ the typical growing 

seasons and are very useful at 

this time of year. 

These include alyssum, calendulas, 

cornflower, lobelia, pansies 

and violas. If you wish to grow 

your own summer flowering 

annuals, seed should be sown 

now either in a glasshouse or in 

a warm, north facing enclosed 

patio. 

Sow and water regularly to ensure 

even germination. Seedlings 

should be ready for transplanting 

into the garden six to eight weeks 

after sowing. 

Carefully mark the position of 

your winter and spring flowering 

bulbs as you may wish to grow 

other plants in the same area over 

summer months. 

Where the bulbs have performed 

well, allow them to 

naturalise where they are growing. 

This applies especially to 

crocus, freesias, hyacinths, iris, 

lachenalias, muscari, narcissus, 

and watsonias. 

Stone fruit such as apricots, 

cherries, nectarines, peaches and 

plums are all in bloom now, as are 

pip fruit such as apples and pears. 

Hopefully, weather conditions 

allow for pollination by bees. Last 

year’s heavy rainfall had a major 

impact on pollination. 

Rose growth is finally under 

way. Spring/early summer is the 

best time for roses with masses of 

blooms and plants usually disease 

free. The addition of compost 

around the base of existing plants 

is beneficial for plant health. 

Start feeding roses from October 

onwards with fertiliser. 

Cut lawns regularly in early 

spring, avoiding close mowing 

initially. First lawn fertiliser can 

be applied in late September/early 

October.

Your guide to all things Real Estate 

in the Selwyn District 

Looking at a 

lifestyle property 

Mike Goatley 

Living in the country away from 

neighbours with land for the family 

and pets, may be appealing. To 

ensure a lifestyle property is the 

right choice, step back and separate 

the dream from the commitment 

involved. 

“Many people have a romantic 

view of country living and I, like 

many others love the lifestyle”, says 

Mike Goatley, Principal of One 

Agency Real Estate Specialists. 

“If looking to buy a larger property, 

weigh the size of the block against the 

potential time it will take to maintain 

it as well as the distances involved in 

commuting to your day-to-day activities.” 

Mike lives on a lifestyle property and 

says the quality of a lifestyle block’s 

infrastructure is significant. 

Factors to consider include: access and 

cost of providing services; existence of 

and need for shelter belts for protection 

from prevailing winds; quality of fencing 

and stock management; and access ways 

around the property. 

The further the driveway, power and 

communication networks must go to 

the home, the greater the expense to 

install and maintain. A sewerage system 

must also be installed for waste water 

management with septic systems and 

disbursement fields for waste water 

adding $15,000 to 25,000 (depending on 

the system’s size). 

“Water is usually not plumbed to a 

town supply so a groundwater system 

will involve drilling a well, and installing 

a suitable pump and storage capacity 

to maintain a safe quality supply to the 

house,” advises Mike. 

Historically, Canterbury wells went 

down 15 to 30 metres. With dropping 

water table levels, wells now need to be 

deeper. Many shallow wells are being 

replaced with new wells penetrating 55 to 

60 metres to assure a stable water supply. 

A well and pumping system adds around 

$20,000 to $30,000. You will also need 

water storage for sufficient water through 

the seasons, including hot dry summers. 

Another factor is the quality of the 

land. Is it suitable for growing or grazing? 

Heavier soils retain moisture so are good 

for crops. If low lying, water may pond. 

Sandy soils dry out quickly and are not 

as fertile so plant growth is slower. A 

simple cost effective soil test should 

be undertaken when considering the 

intended use for a particular block of 

land. 

The infrastructure on older lifestyle 

blocks can be substandard if maintenance 

has been deferred or not upgraded. 

Shelter belts if not maintained can leave 

boundary tree fencing susceptible to 

wind damage or blowing over in high 

winds. Poor fencing can threaten stock 

security. Old concrete tanks could mean 

poor water quality. 

A lifestyle property in need of work 

offers an opportunity for an energetic 

and suitably skilled purchaser, who is 

willing to do the work and invest in 

infrastructure to improve and lift the 

value of the land. 

Mike has sold numerous rural 

properties from lifestyle to small farms. 

He emphasises the importance of doing 

due diligence on the quality and type 

of infrastructure on new and existing 

lifestyle blocks. He is happy to advise 

anyone considering purchasing a lifestyle 

property.
