Costly
severance
payments
to council
employees
• By Devon Bolger
THE DISTRICT council spent more
than $165,000 on severance payments
to employees over the last year.
Three separate payments were made
between June this year and last totalling
$132,635, $25,208 and $7875. The
district council also incurred $32,000
in legal fees dealing with the matters.
Chief executive David Ward said the
mediated severance payments relate to
employment relations processes conducted
with three individuals.
He said they are unable to provide
any information relating to the payments
because of this.
“Council is legally bound by its obligations
under the Privacy Act 1993 and
the Employment Relations Act 2000
not to reveal any severance information
that would identify any individual
or make public their personal and
private employment matters,” he said.
The district council made no severance
payments in the previous year.
The information was released in
the district council’s Annual Report
that summarises its performance and
activities over the last year.
The Local Government Act 2002
requires the district council to disclose
any staff severance payments to the
public.

Nora Guise, 6, has begun a journey to beat cancer. She travelled
to Texas recently to start potentially life-saving treatment.
The family was initially told they would need to meet the
full cost of treatment ($220,000) before anything would start.
However, they were notified recently they could opt into a
payment plan and come up with the rest later.
It is incredible to see the efforts of the community to help
raise the funds Nora needs and we have dedicated all of page 3
to the Rolleston resident.
There is some positive news to share as well with Nora being
back at school now.
The family is feeling hopeful and excited and will head back
to the United States next month where the treatment will
commence and we intend to follow their journey.

Nora’s first step
to beat cancer completed
• By Devon Bolger
SIX-YEAR-OLD Nora Guise
has got over her first hurdle in a
bid to get potentially life-saving
cancer treatment.
A successful first trip to the
United States means the Rolleston
resident will begin treatment
for her Hepatoblastoma, a rare
cancer of the liver, on November
11.
Nora has been accepted into a
CAR T cell trial in Texas which
is her last chance for a cure.
The family has been fundraising
for the $210,000 needed for
the treatment and have raised
more than $180,000 so far.
The financial team in Texas
has allowed them to use a payment
plan so they could begin
work on the CAR T cells.
The family recently returned
from their first trip to the United
States and Mrs Guise said it was
a success.
“We had a blood test and then
they will create the T cells from
that. I recieved an email last
week telling us they have begun
the testing phase and a tentative
treatment date could be made.”
BRAVE: Six-year-old Nora Guise travelled to Texas to
prepare for the treatment she will begin next month.
On November 11, Nora
will begin four days of
lymphodepleting chemotherapy
which lowers her white blood
cell count, she said.
“On November 15, the cells
will go in and they will boost
those white blood cells back up.”
The family will spend about
five weeks in Texas for the treatment
including chemotherapy.
Mrs Guise said they are feeling
incredibly hopeful and excited.
“While it does feel like we are
just waiting, it is nice to be home
and feeling normal again for a
little bit.”
It was Nora’s first time in
America and she had a lot of
fun, she said.
“It was nice to get our bearings
so when we do go back and we
are there for a month, it’s not all
brand new and also trying to

navigate a city I know nothing

A few days after the Guises
got back, Nora started back at
Clearview School.
“She loved it. She loves school
and it is such a nice safe place for
her. She can just be normal and
not the sick kid anymore.”
Army theme
to fundraiser
CLEARVIEW SCHOOL is
banding together in an epic
fundraising day for one of their
own – Nora Guise.
The school has planned
Nora’s Army Day where pupils
will go dressed in army-themed
clothing and will get a visit
from Burnham Military Camp
soldiers.
All funds raised from the
event will go towards the cost
of Nora’s CAR T cell treatment
in Texas.
Clearview School will also
host an auction in the evening
with nearly $40,000 worth of
donated goods.
Principal Rob Rush said:
“Raising the level of money
that’s required for Nora won’t
take a group of people, it’ll take
an army. We are all coming together
to leverage the size of our
school community so Nora can
get the treatment she needs.”
•Nora’s Army Day will be
held on November 1. The
auction will take place at
Pemberton in Prebbleton
from 7 to 10pm. Tickets cost
$40 and are available at the
Clearview School office.

Evidence for quarry hearings released
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding
EXPERT evidence supporting
submitters’ views on the
hotly-debated plan to open a
quarry near Weedons has been
released ahead of next month’s
hearings.
Environment Canterbury
has published 27 reports
from some of the individuals,
businesses and community
groups set to present evidence for
and against
the proposed
quarry.
Evidence
has been
provided by
submitters
including the
city council,
Christchurch
Jolene Eagar
Airport,
New Zealand
Transport
Agency, Templeton Residents’
Association and Yaldhurst Rural
Residents’ Association.
The hearings on Fulton
Hogan’s application to
open a quarry on Dawsons,
Jones, Maddisons and
Curraghs Rd will start on
November 18.
Evidence has been released
from groups in support of
the quarry, including Aggregate
and Quarry Association of
New Zealand and Allied
Concrete.
Templeton Residents’
Association treasurer Jolene
Eagar is due to speak at the
hearings on behalf of the
association’s ‘no quarry subcommittee’.
The committee’s
evidence says if the quarry
application is approved, it will set
a “dangerous” precedent for the
future.
“The TRA received a very
strong message from residents
and businesses of Templeton and
its surrounding area, they were
here first and they have worked
hard to build happy, peaceful
lives. They do not want the proposed
quarry.”
The committee’s evidence
highlighted several concerns,
including the quarry’s potential
impact on water quality and
property values, as well as traffic
and noise.
However, evidence provided
by Aggregate and Quarrying
Association of New Zealand
The expert
evidence can
be viewed
on the ECan
website at
https://bit.
ly/2MOAUCK
chief executive Wayne Scott
said the quarry will benefit
Canterbury.
“Fulton Hogan is proposing
the best practice mitigation
measures for the site and has
developed a detailed quarry
rehabilitation plan. AQA is
supportive of Fulton Hogan’s
commitment to going beyond
compliance.”
Fulton Hogan has already
made a number of changes to its
plan before the hearings start.
They include no processing of
aggregates before 7am or after
8pm and there will be a limit of
800 truck movements per day.
The NZTA evidence covered a
range of issues, including traffic
congestion in the Dawsons Rd
area. It suggested installing electronic
signs warning motorists
not to use certain roads.
On behalf of the Canterbury
District Health Board, Stephen
Gordon Chiles’ evidence said
the proposed conditions do not
adequately
manage
noise from
off-site
trucks. He
made recommendations
including
imposing
a consent
condition
prohibiting Wayne Scott
trucks with
audible engine brakes from
entering the site.
Meanwhile, the number of
people speaking at the hearings
is still to be finalised. An ECan
spokeswoman said a schedule
will be available a week before
the hearings.
The hearings are due to take
place on November 18-22,
December 2- 6 and December
9-13.

Booth’s fight to get better
mental health services not over yet
• By Devon Bolger and Georgia
O’Connor-Harding
GEOFF BOOTH is not giving up
on his fight to get better mental
health services in Canterbury.
THe Greendale resident was
unsuccessful in his bid for a seat
on the Canterbury District Health
Board at the local body elections.
For nearly two years, he has
been battling to seek answers from
health authorities after losing his
21-year-old son Liam to suspected
suicide in 2017.
But his fight to get better mental
health care and to raise awareness
about suicide will continue.
Mr Booth is now planning to
create a national political party to
advocate for families who have lost
loved ones to suicides.
He said the party would be made
up of families affected by suicide.
Over the next couple of months,
Mr Booth will be looking at a
strategy, multi-media platforms to
launch the party on and securing
financial backing.
Mr Booth said if he can get the
political party “off the ground” he
believes he will have a good chance
at running at the next CDHB elections.
Mr Booth said he felt the reason
he wasn’t elected was due to not
having a large enough profile –
compared to well-known elected
members Jo Kane and James
Gough.
“It was a tough ask but it was
worth trying to see whether I
could get in. I am certainly keen to
have another try,” he said.
He said this term the CDHB
needs to get more services and facilities
in place so people can get the
wrap-around services they need.
“The time for talk is over, they
need to put boots on the ground.”
It was reported in August the
number of suicides in New Zealand
has reached its highest-ever
level, with 685 people dying in the
year to June 30.
The statistics released by Chief
Coroner Judge Deborah Marshall
showed an increase in the number
of young people dying – especially
those aged 15 to 19-years-old as
numbers rose from 53 to 73.
FIGHT: Geoff Booth has been
unsuccessful in his bid for a
place in the CDHB but is now
planning a national political
party to advocate for families
who have lost loved ones to
suicide.

Patti Mackay responds to last
week’s Selwyn Times article
on traffic lights planned at the
Lowes Rd and Tennyson St
intersection in Rolleston
It seems a waste of money to
install traffic lights at a roundabout
that works perfectly well.
There are so many business
and domestic driveways in and
out that would be affected and
this will only create a backlog of
motor vehicles, which will create
some very impatient driving.
Perhaps create a right-ofway
for pedestrians to cross if
deemed necessary. There are
other intersections which need
improving and money is better
spent on those.
Janet and Hugh Macleod
respond to last week’s Selwyn
Times article on the 54 objections
made to a liquor store
application in Tai Tapu
We strongly object to the
liquor store as we feel it is not
required, there are already two
liquor stores in Lincoln and
one in Halswell as well as liquor
available at the supermarkets

Overconfidence and scraped nose
CONFIDENCE IS a wonderful
thing.
Vittoria’s certainly getting that
in spades and it’s impacting our
walks.
For example, when she and
I took Mum’s dogs for a beach
walk on Saturday, she was happy
to walk one of the dogs both
there and back by herself without
complaint.
Good right?
However, that same level of I’ma-professional-walker
confidence
led to some serious grumpiness
and a decent scrape on her nose
on Sunday.
We all spent that night in
Akaroa and we’d managed to
arrive before it stated raining, so
we took the chance to wander the
Francophile waterfront before it
got all grey and wet.
Walking up to the lighthouse
was perfection. Vittoria sat calmly
in her pram, made excited noises
at passing dogs and seemingly
enjoyed the view.
By the time we arrived, her
composure was slipping and she
was practically jumping out in
desperation to walk on her own
feet.
As soon as I got her out though,
she turned and sped off too fast.
She barely got two feet before
tripping over her own boots and
faceplanting into the concrete. A
scaring me kind of faceplant.
Although her poor wee

nose got all scraped up and
bloody, I’m glad that was the
worst of it.
In spite of that, she was more
than happy to sprint about
concreted areas and then run
downhill and give me more heart
attacks.
Trying to hold her hand
was no good, she’d just
growl at me and do her best

washing machine impression
before stamping off as if to
say: “No, I can do it!”.
An ultimatum was just met
with more running away, so I just
had to wrestle her back into the
pram. Literally.
Let’s see if a scab on her nose
will chill the over confidence. I
doubt it.
So, quick update on the cot and
potty training efforts before we go.
The potty is still terrifying, so
no real movement there (ha, see
what I did there?)
On the other hand, the cot
training is going great guns. I’m
getting a whole night sleep without
tiny limbs in my eye socket
or ribs.
On Tuesday morning Vittoria
jumped out of bed, wandered
over to me and Laura’s bed, and
jumped up for a cuddle before
getting up. It’s cute when I’m
already awake and it’s not 3am.
To be 100 per cent honest, I
kind of miss the co-sleeping.

Exhibition Awards Announced
A very high calibre of artwork attracted over
1000 visitors to Darfield’s Rec Centre for the
38th annual exhibition. The coveted Orion
Premier Award went to Darfield resident Soon-
Lee Spicer for her linocut “Chrysanthemum and
Quinces”. Judge Fiona Simpson praised it as an
“exquisitely rendered still-life…reminiscent of
traditional Japanese woodcuts”.
Ms Spicer commented: “To win this award is
an incredible encouragement to my art, and
hopefully all artists here. Thank you to Orion,
to the organisers, volunteers, and supporters
of Darfield Artweek, and to this community who
has been so encouraging and positive about my
work”.
David Atkinson’s “Jar” won the MCAC Friends
Award combining its “subtle colouring,
significant form and striking salt glaze to create
a very elegant sculptural work”. Auckland artist,
Gavin Chai received the Darfield Dental Award
for his “small yet sophisticated work that draws
the viewer in with subtle colours and a strong
composition”. Last year’s Premier Award winner,
Henry Turner, received the Local Businesses
Award for his watercolour, “Yellow Arches”.
The Survus Consultants Award went to Steve
James for his “Spring Snow”, an oil painting “in
the tradition of Canterbury landscape painters
such as Archibald Nicoll and AA Deans”. Other
award winners include Darfield resident Jan
Mitchell, West Melton artist Helen Stevenson,
Christchurch artist Philip Beadle, and Tai Tapu
printmaker/photographer John Maillard.
The Hon. Amy Adams, MP for Selwyn, officially
opened Darfield Artweek for an appreciative
crowd of approximately 150 artists and friends
of the Malvern Community Arts Council on Friday,
11 October, who had first viewing of 298 exhibits
by 138 artists.
“Our thanks for the success of Darfield Artweek
go to many local volunteers and supporters,
our Premier Award sponsor, Orion, and a large
group of business sponsors, including Survus
Consultants and Darfield Dental”, Malvern
Community Arts Council Chair, Philip Baldwin
said. “In particular the Artweek Committee, ably
chaired by Lorraine Natusch, did a fabulous job
of organising the whole event.”

1000 natives planted
on Sheffield dairy farm
A SHEFFIELD dairy
farm got a hand from 70
volunteers to transform
the property into a
sanctuary for native
biodiversity.
Dairy farmers Jack
and Joanne van der Salm
hosted the team of volunteers
at their 190 hectare
farm last weekend.
The group included staff
from Landcare Research,
Antarctica New Zealand,
ESR, Aqualinc and My
Milk.
The volunteers planted
a carefully selected range
of 1000 native plants along
the banks of a stream
running through the van
der Salm’s farm.
It was the first of a
number of planting events
planned at the farm which
will see the length of the
stream planted with natives
over the next three
years.
The event was organised
by the Te Ara Kākāriki
Trust which is working to
restore native vegetation
in the district and create
corridors of plantings that
will attract more birdlife
to the area.
Mr van der Salm said
he has always wanted to
carry out planting along
the waterway, both to
beautify the farm and to
create a habitat for birds
and insects.
Trust ecologist Alan
Macdonald said as well
as providing an attractive
habitat for birds, the planting
will help to improve
the stream’s ecosystem by
cooling the temperature
which will increase as the
plants grow.
“All the plants added to
the farm are native plants
that would previously
have naturally occurred
in this area. The plants are
eco-sourced from local
nurseries meaning they
will be tolerant to the
weather conditions here,”
he said.

Shane Epiha
Pedalling new pathways through
Leeston’s Shane Epiha
has secured himself a
seat representing the
Ellesmere Ward at the
district council table.
The new councillor
talked to Devon Bolger
about his life and interest
in politics
Tell me about your family?
I live in Leeston with my wife
Anna and our two children.
Amiria who is about two and a
half and Hana who is six-anda-half-months
old. My youngest
from my first marriage, Lilly,
who is 13 also lives with us. I
do have two older girls who live
in Whangarei, Alisa, 17, and
Jade, 15. Lilly, actually moved in
with us recently and started at
Ellesmere College on Monday
How long have you lived in
Selwyn for?
I have lived here for about twoand-a-half-years
now.
Where were you living before
then?
I was living in Perth, Australia.
I was working in mining and
development. I then started my
own business in commercial
tyres and ran that for five years.
That’s where Anna and I met.
She is originally from Leeston
PASSION: Shane Epiha at SuperTyre where he works as a business development manager.
so we had our youngest Amiria
and then decided to move back
there to raise our family I did
some local contracting work
and then went on to become a
business development manager
for a company in Christchurch,
SuperTyre, where I still work
today.
What do you like about living
in Selwyn?
Well, I didn’t at first. It was
cold getting off that plane from
Perth. I did end up going to
work for a local contractor here
in Leeston. I learned some skills
on the digger and quickly got to
meet a lot of the locals. I actually
worked across the whole district
in the year I worked there and
got to meet a lot of the people
and fell in love with the land
and how hard people work
here.
Why did you decide to enter
politics?
It was really the opportunity
to further develop initiatives
that I’m currently doing. It was
my wife Anna who kind of said
to me: ‘You would be good at
this Shane because you’re
already working with youth,
you’re already developing
pathways for them.’ What
I found valuable about
volunteering my time is that I
got a hell of a lot out of it too. I
am hoping that the skills I got
from that and also the good
feelings I got from that will
carry through to the council.
Getting on to a platform where
I can help more people is really
the reason why I put my hand
up to be a councillor. I have also
been on the executive committee
in region four for the Road
Transport Association NZ. I
have been involved in transport
over the last six years so I am
actively promoting road safety
and education for all road users.
It is something I am hoping to
continue with at the council.

a seat on district council
What are some of the
initiatives?
I am currently in discussions
with Ellesmere College about
helping to fill the network
and forming pathways for
the students in their gateway
programme. I’m in discussions
at the moment about bringing
them through into my network
in the transport industry. The
plan there is you get them in for
some work experience and give
them a taste of the industry. It’s
so important at a young age to
do that so they can see if they
actually do like it and whether
it could be a potential career
for them. That’s my intention
anyway. I give motivational
talks at the Ministry of Social
Development to job seekers in
Ashburton, Hornby and Shirley.
I also talk to young people on
the LSV courses they have at
Burnham Military Camp and
attend the expo they put on there.
Outside of work and politics,
what are your interests?
Family is the main thing at
the moment. Cycling was a big
passion of mine when I came
to Canterbury to live. I loved it.
It’s just a great team sport, it’s
not dependant on anyone’s size
or shape. I even started a youth
cycling team here in Leeston
a few years ago. So yes it was
cycling but now the number one
is family because I have less time
now and any spare time I do have
will be mostly spent with them.
Can you tell me more about
the cycling team?
I started the team when I first
moved here, it was a junior team.
There were about 12 or 13 kids
involved and we got some help
from the local club who gave us
a van. We borrowed grandad’s
trailer and every weekend we
would throw the bikes on the
trailer, put the kids in the van

and go bike ride around the
district. I did that for about a
year and really enjoyed it. There
are a lot of themes within a
cycling team that directly relate
to life. That’s what I teach the
young people, that a 16km lap
around Leeston is essentially
like a 16km map of life. They
struggle at the start and they’re a
bit uncomfortable but then their
confidence builds and when they
finish they get this feeling of
jubilation because of what they
have accomplished.
What are you looking forward
to most about getting started on
the council?
I don’t want to just give a
generic answer but it is about
helping the community first
and foremost so I would say
I am looking forward to the
opportunity for professional
development to be able to further
help my community. I am also
looking forward to continuing
the initiatives I have begun
already.
What do you want to
achieve?
I have three main focuses –
jobs for our kids, road safety and
community well-being. Those
are the three things that I am
currently working on and I feel
they flow directly into my new
position as a councillor and it
gives me a better platform to
help more people. I care about
community development and the
welfare of those living within it
and I intend to be a voice for the
people.

Darfield beaten by Cheviot after batting collapse
• By Jacob Page
CHEVIOT HELD on to beat
Darfield by 34 runs at Ohoka’s
Mandeville Sports Grounds as
rain continued to interrupt the
first few weeks of the Canterbury
Country premier 45-over
competition on Saturday.
Only one of the four scheduled
games was possible after heavy
rain on Friday night left many
grounds too wet for play for
week three fixtures.
Ironically, it was Darfield’s
first game of the season and after
winning the toss and electing to
field they restricted Cheviot to
168 for nine from their 45 overs.
A battling 50 for Cheviot’s
Will Smith had propelled his
team from 113 for 7 to the eventual
total.
He found good support from
No 9 batsman Scott Burnett,
who added 23.
The Darfield bowlers found
earlier success but lacked the big
wicket which would have made
their chase much easier.
Nick Jenkins was the best of
the Darfield bowlers taking 3
for 27 while Liam Foulkes also
chipped in with two wickets.
Darfield’s chase started wellenough
with opener Robbie
Foulkes making 39.
At 74 for two, Darfield had
their chance to push for victory
but the middle-order offered little
substance.
The only meaningful contribution
was Toby Kars’ 26 at No 5
as all his teammates after him
could not make double figures.
Darfield lost their final eight
wickets for 60 runs.
Cheviot’s right-arm quicks
Jack Hyde and Charlie Sidey
each took three wickets.
Darfield captain Mike Pauling
said dropped catches, including
dropping Smith twice did not help
while some soft dismissals with
the bat hampered their chase.
“There was definitely some
rustiness there and things we
can improve on.
“It felt like that game got away
from us,” he said.
Week four fixtures
Lincoln v Darfield at Lincoln
Domain
Southbrook v Cheviot at
Southbrook Domain
Leeston-Southbridge v
Oxford at Mandeville Sports
Grounds
Weedons v Seefton at

Points: Cheviot 20, Southbrook
16, Weedons 16, Oxford
12, Darfield 8, Leeston-Southbridge

FRUSTRATION: Darfield captain Mike Pauling said the team
was rusty druing their 34 run loss to Cheviot at Ohoka’s
Mandeville Sports Grounds on Saturday.

SPEED: Lincoln’s Jacob
Douglas made the
most of his time in Italy
coming away with a win.
Win for cyclist Christie
Silverware for young karters
• By Gordon Findlater
LINCOLN KARTER Jacob
Douglas and his Canterbury
teammate Louis Sharpe returned
home from Italy with silverware.
Jacob, 14, and Louis, 12,
were two of eight New Zealand
karters who joined over 400 of
their contemporaries from 35
countries at the 17th annual
ROK Cup Superfinal event at the
Lonato track in the north-east of
the country.
The event is organised
each year by Italian engine
manufacturer Vortex.
New Zealand has been
represented at the event for the
past six years but Douglas’ win
in the Junior ROK class B final –
the Bridgestone Trophy race – is
a first.
This year it was a case of
third time lucky for Jacob who
competed in the Mini Rok class
in the previous two years, in
spite of the young Lincoln ace
just missing out on a place in the
A final – the cut-off was 34 and
after the heat races Jacob was
ranked 37.
He soon worked his way to the
front in the Bridgestone Trophy
final race before racing away to a
sizable advantage which saw him
cross the finish line more than
2sec in front of Australian Luke
Pink.
Meanwhile, Louis was to
continue a strong campaign in
Italy after a breakthrough win of
his own in the Mini ROK class
B final at the Autumn Trophy
meeting at the same venue a
week earlier.
LINCOLN CYCLIST Henrietta
Christie made the most of her
rival’s misfortune to claim the
Calder Stewart cycle series
during the final round at
Leeston on Sunday.
Lying third going into Sunday’s
Hell of the South 108km
women’s race Christie (Velo
Project) needed to finish in the
top five to have a chance of overall
series victory.
Women’s series leader Kate
McIlroy was absent due to work
commitments and her Lightworkx
Development teammate
Amy Hollamby who was lying
second was ill, resulted in her
not racing on Sunday and losing
her chance to ride for the series
title.
Hollamby, who had been in
Bali last week for a work-related
conference opted not to race
after becoming unwell in Saturday’s
race with a heart rate that
that was very high even when
she wasn’t exerting herself. It
was won by Hannah Bayard.
With a serious chance of overall
series success Velo Project
women’s team manager Andrew
Williams was very pleased with
the way Christie and the team
rode. “It’s a great result for the
team and Henrietta,” he said.
“As a team we’ve worked really
hard together through the
series to help put Henrietta in
the position she was in, so it was
great to see her and the team
deliver today.”
The women’s Hell of the
South was won by Christie’s
Velo Project teammate Elyse
Fraser with an impressive solo
ride, going alone early on and
finishing almost 5min ahead of

second placed Jojo Bauer (Cycle

Christie won the bunch
sprint to claim third and claim
the overall series to add to her
under-19 series jersey, coming
home 5min after Bauer.
McIlroy held onto her series
jersey while Velo Project was
the women’s series winning
team.

2019 Triennial
Election Results
Final results have confirmed Selwyn Mayor Sam Broughton has been returned for a second term
following the 2019 Selwyn District Council elections.
Three new councillors have been elected and eight councillors from the previous council have been
returned.
Mr Broughton says he’s excited about the opportunity to continue leading on behalf of the district
and welcomed the three new councillors.
“It’s cool to have three new faces around the Council table for the life that they will bring and the
outside voices they will contribute to the discussions we have been having.”
The new Council’s priority is to meet and get to know each other and to deliver on the major
projects the Council has committed to on behalf of the community, he says.
“Through the election all elected members receive a lot of feedback on how we’re doing. It’s good
to know we all love living in Selwyn and we will continue to look to improve in areas where people
see that need.”
Fresh water management and provision of safe drinking water to communities will continue to be a
focus, he says.
“We will be meeting government legislative requirements, however we will continue to uphold our
Selwyn identity and support finding local solutions to local problems.”
The final result for the Selwyn District Council elections held on Saturday 12 October is as follows.
Rebuilding bikes and lives
A new lease of life for old bikes is helping Selwyn school students,
prisoners and people reintegrating on release from prison.
The Council has been working with Pathway—a Canterbury charity
that works with people in prison and helps them reintegrate on
release— and with Selwyn high schools to give old bikes a new life.
The Council’s solid waste team provides bicycles that have been
taken to the Pines Resource Recovery Park to Pathway, which
teaches people in the youth unit at Christchurch Men’s Prison to
refurbish them. The bikes are then gifted to people Pathways Trust
works with after their release.
The Council has given around 60 bikes to Pathways. A further 14
bikes have also been given to Ellesmere College and Lincoln High
School for students to work on.
“Being able to have the bikes repaired and reused, instead of being
shredded for scrap metal recycling was a preferred outcome in line
with Council’s aims in our Waste Minimisation Plan to reduce waste
and reuse items,” Council Solid Waste Manager Andrew Boyd says.
“And the positive social outcome with prisoners was the icing on
the cake.”
The bicycle project is a great way to help people in prison learn
transferable work skills, purpose and self-esteem, Pathway
employer and volunteer coordinator Renee Jones says.
“The guys love taking something which could’ve been thrown away
and bringing it back to life and giving it a second chance.”
The bikes help people on release to get to medical appointments,
job interviews and work placements, reconnect with family and
friends or just get to the supermarket, Ms Jones says.
The Council has also worked with container company and Council
supplier Royal Wolf, which has given Pathway a special Wolf Lock
security container to store the bikes and parts.
“It was our way of giving back. What Pathway does helping
rehabilitate prisoners coming out of prison, it’s such a worthy cause.
They were in need of a container and that was something we could
do to help out.”

Wine
Chardonnays to keep an eye out for
• By Mark Henderson
THIS WEEK’S assortment is a
group of 2017 chardonnays.
With Mr McLaren away travelling,
McLaren jun joined my
regular panelist, Mr Collins, and
me to taste through a range from
across the regions.
A grapefruit note came up in
one of the early wines, and once
that character was identified,
I kept finding it in most of the
wines.
The power of suggestion? A
character of the vintage? Or perhaps
my succumbing to cognitive
bias?
More study will be needed.
2017 Mahi Alchemy Single
Vineyard Marlborough
Chardonnay
Price: $39.90
Rating: Excellent
Gunflint, struck match, powerful
peach and melon fruit, citrus
with time. At first, playing in the
sweet and sour spectrum with
grapefruit in focus and biscuity/
oatmeal notes, but this fattens up
nicely, aeration adding a wisp of
buttered popcorn.
All the while, there’s delicious
drive and crispness with a
delightfully long, fresh and tangy
finish.
www.mahiwine.co.nz
2017 Hunters Offshoot
Marlborough Chardonnay
Price: $34.99
Rating: Very good to excellent
Grapefruit, struck match, fresh
baguette, a little toastiness. Powerful
in the mouth, the lemony
citrus notes play off grilled nuts
and toasty elements, with stonefruit
and apple joining in with
aeration. Crisp, salivatory, there’s
a real lip-smacking element to
the acidity.
Tightens a little over time,
but a good swirl helps to coax it
back.
www.hunters.co.nz
2017 Tohu Whenua Awa
Single Vineyard Awatere
Valley Chardonnay
Price: $39.99
Rating: Very good to excellent
Struck match, burnt toast,
warm baguette, grapefruit.
Showing its youthful side, yet
also its richness, texture and
supple acidity. Grilled nuts,
caramel, some fruit pith bittersweet
elements and a petrol-like
note.
This becomes more zesty with
aeration but seems to be holding
its cards close to its chest.
www.tohuwines.co.nz
2017 Craggy Range Les
Beaux Cailloux Gimblett
Gravels Chardonnay
Price: $150
Rating: Excellent
Bonfire smoke, spices, peach
almost a deeper register, developing
perfume and struck
match. This could be perceived
as underpowered but there’s
quiet depth in the mouth. This
grows in texture, picking up
notes of orange peel, spice and
toffee, enlivened as the acidity
becomes more racy.
Elegant and with potential.
www.craggyrange.com
2017 Mahi Marlborough
Chardonnay
Price: $29
Rating: Good to very good
A little wild funkiness, wild
yeast, matchstick and spice lead.
Full and creamy entry with
toasty oak in support and just
when you think it might be a
little soft, the racy acidity floods
in, giving this a mouth-puckering
lift.
Quite linear through the
mouth — as the matchstick subsumes
a little cheesiness grows
— though just a little short on
the finish.
www.mahiwine.co.nz
2017 Pegasus Bay Waipara
Chardonnay
Price: $43
Rating: Very good to excellent
Powerful struck match, wood
smoke and toast notes, adding
lactic hints and white peach. Real
acid drive to this giving brisk
freshness, leading with a bittersweet
citrusy element reminding
me of grilled grapefruit.
Fragrant top notes and a long,
mellow finish.

Beautiful lawns
make a difference
to how your
home looks
A beautiful new lawn can really set off
your home and makes a huge difference to
how it looks.
Canterbury Lawns are specialists in great
looking lawns whether it is an instant rollout
lawn or hydroseeding. Their roll-out
lawns use top quality products and are
locally sourced.
Hydroseeding is a cost effective option
and can still be applied during the cooler
months but may take longer to germinate
depending on the location and how much
sun the area gets, and of course, the weather.
Spring is the perfect time of year to get your
new lawn for summer!
Hydroseeding is a spray-on application
of water, grass seed, wood fibre mulch,
fertiliser and tackifier (a glue which holds
the mix to the surface it is sprayed on). This
method give the best chance for the seeds
to germinate and become your beautiful
green and luscious lawn.
Canterbury Lawns owners Zac and
Ashley Swale live locally and can give the
best advice on growing the perfect lawn.
Watering is key and Zac recommends
having an automated irrigation system
installed to make the job easier, more
convenient and more efficient in terms of
water use. He is happy to provide advice
regarding the best type of sprinklers for
your property’s needs and provide a quote.
You can also catch Ashley in the office
working behind the scenes.
The services of Zac and his team are wide
and varied and can cater for all your needs
just enquire today and we can organise a
time for a free quote.
Canterbury Lawns not only works close
to home on residential properties but also
specialise in commercial and larger-scale
work, bringing to any job a high level of
both expertise and enthusiasm.
Zac and the team are also specialists
in erosion and dust control for both
commercial and residential areas. This is
perfect for this time of year keeping the
dust down in the nor’west winds!
Their hydroseeder can hold large
quantities at a time making the job more
efficient and they can source top quality
products to suit each job.
For more information phone the team
at Canterbury Lawns on 027 456 7777
or 03 347 4000. You can also visit their

Gutter guard
extends the life of
your spouting
Developed in Australia more than 20 years
ago, Gumleaf Gutter Guard has been
providing a quality and effective solution in
New Zealand for the last decade.
The Gumleaf Gutter Guard also helps
with preventing birds from nesting in the
spouting during spring. The eggs and young
chicks attract vermin which can then get
inside roof cavities and rats and mice can
then chew through wiring creating a fire
hazard, he says.
Gumleaf Gutter Guard is an effective way
of preventing birds from making nests in
the spouting, and perching on the spouting
and soiling walls and windows with their
droppings, while also protecting tank water
from being contaminated, ensuring the
safety and quality of the water supply.
“By having a gutter guard installed, the
life of the spouting is extended to the life
of the roof.”
Snow can also damage spouting, and
again Gumleaf Gutter Guard will protect
the spouting by spreading the load, Rohan
says.
Developed in Australia more than 20
years ago, Gumleaf Gutter Guard has been
providing a quality and effective solution
in New Zealand for the last decade, Rohan
says. Much of his work comes from repeat
business, with customers happy with both
the product quality and the service he
provides.
Customers requesting a quote will receive
it within 24 hours, and Rohan says he will
“go anywhere to provide a quote”.
He is also available anytime if customers
need to speak with him.
“Even if I am working on a job, I will talk
to anyone who calls me,” he says.
Once a quote is accepted, the job is
started within 10 days, with installation on
an average sized house taking one to two
days. Rohan also does any necessary minor
repair jobs on the roof at the same time.

Styling for
outdoor living
With the warmer weather, the outside beckons and it is a great
opportunity to create what essential is an additional room over
summer and a becomes focus for entertaining and family time.
Making your outdoor area just as stylish
as your interior is a matter of choosing the
best furniture solutions depending on how
you see the space being used.
The main things to consider are fairly
obvious – space, types of furniture, style
and materials and storage options.
First up is space and size. Outdoor
furniture needs to be sized to the space
you have available. A small courtyard or
veranda can look even smaller with large
furniture while a larger deck looks best
with larger settings.
Measure how much space you have
before you shop as furniture and include
plenty of room to move around.
Once you have established the size of
your new outdoor furniture you need to
identify what type of furniture you need for
the space depending on how you think it
will be used.
There are plenty of options for outdoor
furniture and, if you have a larger space,
you might want to divide it up into different
areas, for example, two chairs and table for
that morning coffee, a dining table, sofa
and comfortable chairs or a hammock.
Bean bags are a flexible option and can
bring a splash of colour or pattern into
your outdoor space. There are plenty of
shapes and sizes of outdoor beanbags
available, from ottomans and loungers to
the traditional teardrop shape.
Style-wise any outdoor furniture should
ideally blend with what you have in your
home and can enhance your indooroutdoor
flow. So if you have a modern home
then look for something that has similar
clean lines. Or it may be the opportunity
to use bright colours that you would not
choose for your
interior.
To make sure your
outdoor furniture
lasts for a long time,
choose the right
materials. Rattanstyle
furniture, for
example, is now
made with a poly resin which means it is
weather-resistant and can stay outdoors all
year round. Look for dense woods like teak
which are easy to maintain and durable.
Powder coated metal furniture is both UVresistant
and rust proof.
There are plenty of outdoor furniture
options available so take the time to make
sure you have exactly what suits your needs
and then you can sit back, relax and enjoy
the sunshine.
To make sure
your outdoor
furniture lasts
for a long time,
choose the right
materials.

A garden haven
It’s spring! The perfect time to look at how
you could enhance your garden’s appeal and
spend more time outside relaxing after an
enjoyable day spent working in the garden.
Outdoor lighting can be used to set the
right mood for you and your guests to
enjoy al fresco dining on the deck, patio or
in outdoor garden rooms.
Lighting can also be used to add structure
to your garden, and enhance trees,
sculptures, spa, pool and seating areas.
Whether you love the look of hanging
lanterns or more traditional lighting, there
is something to suit everyone’s style and
budget.
The Juice Electrical team recommend
to look for styles where you can use longlife
and energy efficient LEDs. Low voltage
LEDs can be safely installed under bark,
mulch or weed mat with no digging or
trench needed.
Spring is also a great time to install that
spa pool you have always wanted. While
size and style is important to consider it is
also critical to get some information on the
power requirements. Some spa pools cost
more to install, while others have a sting in
the tail when the power bill arrives as they
cost more to run. The Juice team can offer
pre-purchase advice as well as install.
Juice Electrical love their community,
and offer great service without any added
mileage or admin fees for our Rolleston
customers who pay only for the time we
spend on the job.
Give life to your garden ideas, and
bring Juice in on your plans. We can help
to enhance your garden for the warmer
weather ahead.

Recarpeting your home may be one of the biggest

comes to updating your décor.
It is one thing to view carpet and hard flooring

Perfect time to explore
heating options
It’s a perfect time of the year to plan a
summer project, to research home heating
options and choose a fire well in advance of
next season.
Not only are you likely to “snag” a great
deal on an end of season special offer, but
also the pressure’s off, so a new fire can be
installed relatively quickly.
Nothing beats the comfort and ambience
of a fire. We can all relate to stepping into a
deliciously warm home and backing up to a
real wood flame.
If “no mess, no fuss, just great heat”
appeals and fits your lifestyle, then a stylish
pellet fire is the answer. The Italian Ravelli
pellet burners are exclusive to Heatstore
and feature the latest technology from one
of Europe’s leading manufacturers. The
new 2019 Dual & Natural 7 models take
convenience to another level.
These fires are exceptionally efficient,
whisper quiet, available with or without
a convection fan, self-cleaning and are
fully controllable to a seven-day timer/
thermostat. The “icing on the cake” for tech
savvy folk is optional Wi-Fi which enables
all the Ravelli models to be easily operated
remotely via a mobile phone or tablet.
Modern log burning fires have also
recently improved in leaps and bounds. The
Blaze King catalytic combustion burning
fires from Canada are exclusively supplied
and installed by Heatstore and are second
to none.
These fires were designed in direct
response to the Canadian Air Plan
Regulations over 30 years ago, are capable of
achieving burn times of 15 - 20 hours from
a single load of wood, whilst producing
thermostatically “controlled heat, all night
long”.
Heatstore have been installing these fires
for approximately 18 months and have
received unprecedented feedback from
many happy customers.
Heatstore is an accredited provider to
both the ECan Healthier Homes loan
and also the EECA Warmer Kiwi Homes
grant schemes, although not too many
homeowners are aware of the options
available.
An ECan Heathier Homes loan is
available for approved heating, insulation
and ventilation products enabling a
homeowner to borrow up to $6000 which
is repayable via your rates.
The new EECA Warmer Kiwi Homes
grant scheme is for eligible homeowners,
living in older homes built before 2008.
Grants of up to $2875 are available for
qualifying homeowners to assist with the
purchase of approved heating. Conditions
apply so ask Heatstore for assistance or,

The start of a blooming garden
THE JOY of spring is that there
are plenty of jobs to do in the
garden, especially now the soil is
warming up.
Towards the end of October,
early season varieties of
strawberries will begin to ripen.
Check plants regularly for signs
of grey mould (botrytis), and
remove any affected leaves and
fruit.
Add pea straw, hay or clean
bark mulch around the plants
to provide a clean ‘nest’ for
developing strawberries.
Raspberries, boysenberries,
loganberries and blackberries
should be growing at a very fast
rate as we move through the
month.
Train canes on a wall or a
wire framework. It may be
necessary to remove some
surplus canes where growth is
exceptional. Mulch with compost
to suppress weeds and conserve
soil moisture, and fruit and berry
fertiliser.
Lawns are now in very active
growth and require regular
mowing. Fertilise with lawn
fertiliser and repeat every four to
six weeks.
This is the last month for
‘easy’ laying of a new lawn or for
patching and existing lawn.
It’s a great time to plant up
BEST DISPLAY OF YEAR: Roses should now be coming into bloom.
your container gardens with
ornamental annuals, perennials
or herbs, and even small green
salad veges.
Always start with fresh
container mix and ensure the
containers are well drained.
Summer annuals that thrive in
containers include dwarf cosmos,
marigolds, petunia, portulacas,
salvias and zinnias.
If you are establishing a new
herb garden or restoring an
existing one, try and position the
herb garden close to the kitchen
so it’s easy to access.
Ideally, herbs prefer a sunny,
well-drained position. You may
need to plant more of the herbs
you frequently use for example
basil, chives, parsley.
Roses will now start coming
into their own.
The first blooms are the best
display of the year before the
dreaded blackspot and rust
appear.
Fertilise them every four to
six weeks with rose fertiliser as
this enhances regular and ‘strong’
flowering.
Mulch with compost to help
retain soil moisture and ‘dead
head’ (the removal of old flowers)
regularly to help promote
continuous flowering.
Take precautions
to keep safe
SPRING IS a time when
working in the garden is the
place to be.
However, there are hidden
dangers and one of those is
developing legionnaires’ disease.
Here are some guidelines to
avoid that happening
•Minimise the amount of dust
present when working in the
garden.
•Water gardens and indoor
plants using a gentle spray.
•Read the warning label on
bagged composts or potting
mix.
•Wear gloves.
•Wear a mask so that any dust
is filtered out before you can
breathe it in.
•Dampen potting mixes
before use.
•Open bags of soil products
slowly, away from the face.
•Make sure the working area
(for example, the glasshouse or
potting shed) is well ventilated.
•See a doctor if you develop a
flu-like illness that seems to be
worsening.
•Wash hands thoroughly
after gardening or handling soil
products.
These are simple, easy and
natural steps that all gardeners
can take to reduce risk while
continuing to enjoy their
garden.

Ford Focus continues tradition of old
Motoring
Ross Kiddie
WHEN I LOOK back over time
I simply can’t understand why I
let two of my favourite cars go to
new owners, I made some very
bad decisions.
They were both three-door
Escorts, a Mk 1 and Mk 2 Sport.
Today I’m hankering to own
an Escort again, but prices are
astronomical and they don’t often
come up for sale.
The Escort of eras gone by
represented honesty and sporty
performance, depending on the
model. Over the years it morphed
into various shapes and designs,
its concept retained in today’s Focus
– the natural successor to that
incredibly successful nameplate.
The Focus has just been transformed
for 2019, there are four
models for New Zealand, three
hatchbacks and a wagon. The
latter has a 2-litre diesel engine,
but all the others share a threecylinder
petrol driveline. There
are three levels of specification, a
Trend opens the series at $31,990,
ST-Line adds around $5000,
while a Titanium variant lists at
$41,990. This evaluation focuses
on the latter (pardon the pun).
For interest’s sake, the Trend
wagon is listed at $37,990.
The Titanium is plush, it is very
well specced and a value choice. It
is a compact car but it will easily
cater for four, or even five when
necessary. Each occupant gets a
respectable amount of head and
leg room, even in the rear. Load
space is also on a par with what
you would expect from a mid-size
hatchback, but those interested
in more cargo carrying ability
could well be interested in the
entry-level wagon, it would be my
choice in the series.
Under the bonnet sits the
delightful three-cylinder, 1.5-litre
engine. It must be said that threepotters
are different in the way
they sound and react, not that
that is a problem, but there are
harmonics which the occupants
can pick up. I’m a big threecylinder
engine fan, they develop
strong low down torque, and that
FORD FOCUS: Three-cylinder enigne.
is what you want in any engine,
and if you add in turbocharged
boost then the Focus feels feisty
and decisive when asked to perform.
Ford claims a very impressive
134kW (6000rpm) and
240Nm power outputs from the
twin-camshaft unit. The torque
output is delivered low in the rev
band at 1600rpm with a long,
broad stretch to 4500rpm and
that contributes to the feeling of
willingness and urgency. Sure,
a standstill to 100km/h time of
8.9sec isn’t earth-shattering, but
the Focus in this form does have
punch through the mid-range
and that’s what is important, it
will easily make a 5sec 80km/h to
120km/h overtaking manoeuvre.
Drive is channelled through an
eight-speed automatic transmission
and it harnesses the available
power beautifully, the proximity
of ratios means the engine never
goes off song and the correct gear
is always selected for each moment.
The gearing is such that it also
makes economic use of fuel. Ford
claims a 6.1l/100km (46mpg)
combined cycle average. The fuel
usage readout on the evaluation
car was mostly listing around
7.6l/100km (37mpg) with tempting
4.6l/100km (61mpg) available
instantaneously at 100km/h, the
engine turning over leisurely at
1600rpm.
Like its predecessors, the Focus
has quality handling. I’ve long
admired the way European Fords
tackle tight and twisty terrain,
• Price – Ford Focus

240Nm, eight-speed
automatic.
• Performance –
0-100km/h, 8.9sec
• Fuel usage – 6.1l/100km
the Focus steers with precision
and accuracy. The Titanium-spec
Focus does sit a little firm on the
road and that has a lot to do with
the low profile tyres (235/40 x
18in), however, the ride isn’t compromised
greatly, there is compliance
within the suspension.
Ford of New Zealand, and the
dealerships, must still be happy
with their position in the marketplace.
Ranger is still the number
one seller nationwide, and the rest
of the Ford line-up is ticking over
consistently.
The Focus is there to tempt
the small-to-mid hatchback
(or wagon) buyer and it is very
capable in all conditions. And
with petrol sitting at around $2.20
a litre, that wee engine is a real
money-saver.

Buying a property at auction
If you’re keen on a property that’s going
to auction, preparation is everything. A
successful bid means you are immediately
committed to buy the property; you cannot
seek legal advice, arrange finance or even
get the property valued or inspected when
the auction is over.
That means you need to do all your due
diligence in advance of auction day. Before
the auction (usually after you’ve viewed the
property), the real estate agent working for
the seller should provide you with a copy
of the terms and Contract of Sale, which
sets out what chattels will be included with
the property. This document will also tell
you the amount of the deposit to be paid
by the successful bidder, and when the
balance of the payment must be made.
These documents should be checked by
your lawyer.
You should consider having the property
checked (preferably by a qualified inspector
who has professional indemnity insurance
and carries out their work in accordance
with the New Zealand Property Inspection
Standards and obtain an up-to-date Land
Information Memorandum (LIM) from
the local council. It’s a good idea to get a
valuation of the property, especially as
you are likely to require one if you need a
loan. Some websites provide free estimated
market values that may be useful.
There’s a lot to take in at an auction and
it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. If you can,
go along to one as an observer to see how
the process works before you actually want
to buy. Remember that the auctioneer is
working for the seller and they want to get
the highest price possible for the property.
At an auction, the auctioneer will read the terms and
conditions of the sale aloud and announce if a reserve
price has been set. They must also state whether the seller
has reserved the right to bid during the auction. This is
called ‘vendor bidding’ and it is only allowed under strict
circumstances, such as when the property being auctioned
has a reserve price; when the reserve price has not yet been
met; and the auctioneer has made it clear that the bid being
made is a vendor bid. They must do this by saying, ‘this is a
vendor bid’ rather than using any jargon.
Auctioneers sometimes use vendor bids as a way to
start off the bidding, or to move the bidding towards the
reserve price. Vendor bids can be made by the auctioneer,
or another person working on behalf of
the seller, such as a real estate agent. An
auctioneer can also use a pre-auction offer
to start the bidding.
The auction continues until there is only
one bidder left. At that stage, if the reserve
price is reached or beaten, the highest
bidder will be the successful buyer. If the
reserve price isn’t reached, the seller can tell
the auctioneer to stop the auction without
selling the property.
If the auction is stopped without a sale, the
highest bidder may have the opportunity to
negotiate with the seller (via their agent)
after the auction. If this happens, the terms
and conditions of the auction no longer
apply and you can negotiate new ones.

Your guide to Show Homes & New Sections
in the Selwyn District
A home to relax in
New to Lincoln’s Te Whāriki showhome village is
a very appealing 216sqm house by Orange Homes.
Throughout, this home has many striking features,
colours and textures.
Earthy tones in the living precinct instil a desire to
sink into a couch and relax. The kitchen’s timber look
cabinetry is offset by its near black island cabinetry and
white 30mm engineered Tri-stone bench tops. Darker
(stoney colour) Divino timber style vinyl plank flooring
finishes the look, giving the galley style kitchen a touch
of class. An island sink complete with tower Fawcett,
allows interaction with family or guests while prepping
a meal with a pantry handily positioned nearby.
Tucked into one end of the living area is a study
nook. At the other end, pull back cavity sliders allow a
lounge/media room to become a quiet space to watch
a movie, for a tête-à-tête or to gaze over the wetlands
beyond, as sun streams through the large window.
A sliding door allows natural indoor/outdoor flow
from living area to garden offering the perfect family
living and entertaining scenario. With floor to ceiling
windows in this area light abounds along with plenty of
natural heating from the sun.
The décor throughout this home marries soft earthy
tones, white walls and a touch of black to create a
calming environment where you will want to stay a
while. Wallpaper makes a statement in both
the lounge and master bedroom. Within the
latter, there is a generous walk-in robe fitted
out with a customised wardrobe system in
grey ash joinery.
Plush is the best way to describe the
ensuite where the floor and two walls
including behind the large glass corner
shower are fully tiled. A wide hanging
vanity and toilet complete this spacious
and light room. Tiles are also a feature in
the main bathroom where they surround
and cover the wall behind the fitted bath.
This room also has a curved shower,
hanging vanity and generous mirror. There
is a separate toilet complete with a small
washbasin next door.
Storage is generous in this home with double
wardrobes in bedrooms two and three, a small storage
cupboard in one corner of the garage, and a full height
and wide cupboard in the separate laundry, where there
is space for a washing machine and under-bench dryer.
The double garage is a true 6x6 metres, accessible to
the home through the entry way. There is also a door
leading out to be backyard.
You will find Orange Homes’ new showhome at156
Southfield Drive, Te Whāriki in Lincoln. It is open
Wednesdays to Sundays, 12pm until 4pm.

That doesn’t appeal to the villa crowd.
But many people dream of a home in a
new suburb.
There are many other advantages --
such as being able to customise the home
before it’s built. Buyers love it that their
build guarantee covers most things and
there’s little maintenance to do for the first
10 years.
There are a long list of reasons some
people dream of buying new.
They include:
• Current Building Code requirements
specify a higher standard of insulation
and glazing than you can expect in an
older home, which makes your new home
warmer in winter and cooler in summer,
meaning cheaper to run. In addition
there has been a vast improvement in the
quality and technology of construction
materials over the last decade.
• New homes are designed for modern
lifestyles with walk-in wardrobes, double
or triple car garaging, en suites and heat
pumps.
• Internal access garaging.
• Indoor-outdoor flow. Home builders
before the 1970s rarely thought about this.
EVERY WEDNESDAY inside Selwyn Times
• Automatic pool covers and electric
curtains are included in a lot of new
homes, he says.
• In a new subdivision you’re not going
to have five cross-leased small homes next
door to your architecturally designed fivebedroom
dream home, he says.
• New purpose-built shopping and
service centres cater for the modern life.
• New schools can be popular. New
schools are being designed with “Modern
Learning Environments”, which are
considered better layouts for 21st-century
learning.
Another important factor is it’s easier
to get a mortgage. New Reserve Bank of
New Zealand loan to value (LVR) ratio
restrictions from October 1 don’t relate
to new homes. Likewise the KiwiSaver
HomeStart grant is doubled for first time
buyers.
When it comes to new apartment
buildings they’re built to a higher
standard of earthquake/fire proofing and,
hopefully, are no longer leaky.
There are, of course, disadvantages to

buying new. Not everyone wants to wait
six or 12 months to move into their home.
Other downsides include:
• Borrowing to cover the progress
payments is more complex than taking
out a mortgage on an existing property.
• Builders and developers can go broke,
leaving the buyer in an awkward position.
• With some new homes the buyer
effectively needs to become a project
manager.
• You have to deal with council for
building and sometimes resource consent.
• The location may be further from the
centre than you wanted.
• If it’s infill housing you might have a
cross lease situation that some people find
tricky.
• There are often teething problems with
a new build.
• You won’t get a quaint tree-lined
street.
• Your section will most likely be
smaller than that of an existing home.
• Fences, paths and landscaping might
need to be added at a cost.
