Festive season shoppers
good for Papanui retailers
• By Bea Gooding
A SHOPPING boom in Papanui
during the festive season made it
one of the suburbs with the largest
retail spending increase across the
city.
A report by economic development
agency, ChristchurchNZ,
revealed spending in December
shot up four per cent city-wide,
and nine per cent in the city
centre, compared to data from the
same month in 2019.
Along with an 18 per cent
increase in Papanui, Lyttelton
and Spreydon also had the largest
growth in spending.
The growth follows a tough
financial year for the city, with
the absence of international tourists,
a lockdown, and alert level
changes.
Garden City Produce on Cranford
St only opened in November
last year. Owner Daryl Morris has
no regrets setting up a new business
in the midst of a pandemic.
The family business saw
demand surge in December,
particularly leading up to
Christmas and has been “steady”
ever since. Berries, he said, were
the most popular purchase.

‘Cycleway won’t destroy
local businesses’ – Dalziel
Have Your Say
What do you think of
the cycleway plan?
Email bea.gooding@
starmedia.kiwi
MAYOR LIANNE Dalziel
has promised a planned new
cycleway won’t destroy local
businesses.
The owners of the Copenhagen
Bakery are unhappy with
the loss of car parks to make
way for the Wheels to Wings
cycleway.
The loss of
parks is due
to a proposal
as part of
the cycleway
to narrow
Harewood
Rd from four
lanes to two.
Dalziel told
Chris Lynch
on Newstalk
ZB they are
Lianne
Dalziel
holding a genuine public consultation
on the plans.
“I have heard people make
comments that this is a slam
dunk, it’s a foregone conclusion,
I just wanted to mention . . . the
Papanui Parallel cycleway from
Northlands Mall to the central
city, more than 80 changes were
made to that.”
Dalziel said she will personally
go and speak to the owners of
the Copenhagen Bakery.
The cycleway is expected to
provide a connection for local
cycling trips in the Harewood,
Bishopdale and Papanui suburbs.
Street parking will be reduced
to three parks outside Copenhagen
Bakery on Harewood Rd.
Owner Donna Thomsen told
PHOTO: NEWSLINE
Lynch elderly customers and
tradies rely on street parking
when the 12 on-site parks are
full.
“Of course the kids need to be
safe and I do love to see bums on
bikes but the democracy of the
process is very disingenuous. We
only got approached last week.
“This will annihilate our business.”
The view of Harewood Rd
from the Copenhagen Bakery
where it is proposed four lanes
be reduced to two.
The removal of on-street parking
is a key part of the wider
plan.
City councillor Aaron Keown
said the exact number of parks
that are expected to be removed
is not known but it is “most”.
Keown said the entire
Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewood
Community Board, which he is a
member of, opposed the plan.
“When you hold up traffic and
keep it on the road for longer, it
uses more carbon so it’s a bit of
a farce when we claim climate
change and say we’re going to
save the planet.
“A big chunk of the population
isn’t going to use the cycleways
so they’re [council] going to try
and force them out of cars and I
think the public is smart enough
to know that that’s the agenda
that seems to be going on.”
Keown said the cost of the
plan, an estimated $20 million,
is far beyond what the community
board was expecting.
“It makes no sense.”
Reader Dianne
Downward responds
to the cycleway plan
I would like all road users to
be safe.
However, I don’t think
turning a busy four-lane road
into a two-lane road to make
way for an over engineered
cycleway, paid for by cars, is the
answer to traffic congestion and
cycle safety.
I strongly feel those who are
pushing for us to cycle and ride
the bus need to lead by example.
This includes the mayor and all
the People’s Choice councillors
and their staff, including the
roading engineer.
There are plenty of cargo
bikes and weather proof trailers
for bikes that will carry any gear
they need that doesn’t fit into a
backpack, or they can take the
bus.
They can be true leaders and
do what they want the rest of
us to do with no complaints
or excuses, starting now,
they can cycle to the public
“consultations’’ on this subject.

Cancer Society shuttle service gets boost
THE CANCER Society’s
Canterbury West Coast division
shuttle service received a boost
recently with a combined
donation of almost $13,000 from
23 South Island-based Lions
clubs.
THe free shuttle service
transports patients staying
in the Cancer Society’s
accommodation, Daffodil
House in Merivale and Daffodil
Lodge in Riccarton, to and from
radiation and chemotherapy
appointments at Christchurch
Hospital.
Janice Porter-Hoare,
fundraising and events manager
for the Cancer Society’s CWC
division, said that the Lions
Clubs’ significant donation was
a huge help towards funding the
$65,000 required to operate the
shuttle each year.
“The shuttle currently operates
from 7.30am until 9pm Monday
to Friday, which translates to
approximately 16,000 individual
patient trips. Given that the
patients we are providing our
service for, come from all over
the South Island it is fabulous
to see local Lions Clubs from a
variety of regions supporting
this Christchurch-based service,”
Porter-Hoare said.
Porter-Hoare acknowledged
that this was the fourth
consecutive year that the Lions
Clubs had donated to the shuttle
service.
“The late John Cramond from
Motueka organised the first
donation in 2017 after having
used the shuttle service himself
while having cancer treatment
in Christchurch,” Porter-Hoare
said.
“Sadly John passed away last
year, but his legacy lives on in
this donation, which is extremely
important to us given that we
anticipate the demand for the
shuttle service to grow even
further during 2021.”
Lions Club representative
Christine Stewart, 1st Vice
District Governor for District
202J, visited Daffodil House to
see the shuttle service in action
and accepted a certificate of
thanks from the Cancer Society
on behalf of the contributing
Lions Clubs.
In addition to providing
accommodation and transport
services, the Cancer Society
provides education and support
services for cancer patients and
their families, as well as coordinating
and funding cancer
research.

Importing delays a concern
• From page 1
Said Morris: “[Demand] is
improving every week – about
10 per cent a week, even with no
advertising. We didn’t know what
to expect.
“It was busy because of Christmas,
but January was actually
busier with more people knowing
where we are.”
In spite of the holiday season
ending, Morris was feeling
optimistic for the year ahead.
“I’m an optimist and always
look on the bright side. I wouldn’t
have opened [the business] otherwise.”
The same can be said at Black
Sheep on Papanui Rd – the
country’s leading retailer of
electric scooters, e-bikes, and
hoverboards.
Owner Luke Ambrose said
there was a “big demand” for
products all year, but December
proved to be different.
He was relieved the business
did not suffer too greatly last year,
however, delays in importing
products overseas were the main
concern currently.
“December was quite busy, last
year was a lot busier than 2019,”
he said.
“People seem to be spending
their money on bikes because
they can’t go anywhere [overseas].
PROMISING: Retailers in Papanui, including Garden City
Produce, experienced a spike in sales during December
last year compared to data from the previous year.

It’s made people realise they want
to get out a bit more.”
The report said, popular items
on the shopping list included
apparel, home and recreational
goods, personal items, groceries,
and alcohol.
However, fuel and automotive
spending decreased by five per
cent – a trend in recent years
following a push for residents to
use alternative transport.
Spending on clothing and
personal items saw the greatest
growth in December, with
domestic visitor spend up 20
per cent compared to the same
period in 2019.
“Across the city, retail spending
was robust in December 2020 as
consumers prepared for Christmas,”
the ChristchurchNZ report
said.
“With December being the
first month of the summer and
holiday season, the impact of
closed borders on the visitor
economy has become more
apparent and will continue to do
so as the season progresses.”
Camera cradles to help
track coastline change
THE PUBLIC will be able to
help track how New Brighton’s
coastline is changing over time.
Camera cradles have been
installed at New Brighton Pier
to encourage people to take part
in the CoastSnap community
science project.
CoastSnap relies on the
public taking photos at the same
locations at different times and
sending them to the city council.
This will help determine
how coastlines are changing
over time due to human activity
and natural processes such as
storms, rising sea levels and
day-to-day changes in the beach
structure.
Cradles have also been set up
at Taylors Mistake to track how
its coastline is changing.
Said city council head of
planning and strategic transport
David Griffiths: “We have set
up camera cradles at Taylors
Mistake and on the New
Brighton Pier in the hope that
visitors to those locations will
take part in the project by
taking a photo and sharing it on
the CoastSnap app, via Twitter
or Instagram, or by emailing
coastsnapchch@ccc.govt.nz
“Using a specialised technique
known as photogrammetry,
CoastSnap turns your photos
into valuable coastal data that
is used by coastal scientists to
understand and forecast how
coastlines might change in the
coming decades.
“The beach and dunes at New
Brighton and Taylors Mistake
are dynamic, natural systems
that are constantly changing.
CoastSnap will help us to better
understand how the beaches
respond to changes in wave conditions,
weather and extreme
storm events.
“Every photo that is taken will
add to a community database
that will be used by scientists and
planners to map shoreline changes.
That information will help
us to improve how we manage
treasured coastal environments,
so please get snapping.
“There’s a sign at each camera
cradle site explaining what you
need to do so it is an easy project
for people to get involved in.’’
The CoastSnap app can be
downloaded from the app store
or Google Play.
CoastSnap is a joint project
involving the city council,
Environment Canterbury and
Canterbury University.

Get ready to dig in at garden festival
CHRISTCHURCH’S homegrown
garden festival, Grow
Ōtautahi, offers a three-day
feast of food, design, outdoor
living and sustainability in

around the region who will
share their culinary skills.
Festival goers will also be
able to sample locally sourced
food, explore innovative
landscape design, take part in

experience gardening through
the eyes of children.
Festival director Sandi
MacRae says that Grow
Ōtautahi has been designed
especially for the garden
city.
“It celebrates our local
community, champions our
environment and supports
education,” she says.
MacRae says that
the festival will appeal
to people of all ages and
interests, offering plenty of
opportunities for exploration.
Along with the cooking
demonstrations and seminars,
the festival will encourage
conversations on food
resilience, water usage and
sustainability.
Jax Hamilton will lead a
team of well-known chefs as
they tackle the plant-based
Meadow Mushrooms Mystery
Box challenge in the Grow
Ōtautahi garden kitchen.
Among those taking part
are Fleur Sullivan (Fleurs
Place), Simon Levy (Inati),
Daniel Jenkins (Kaikoura
Cheese), Alex Davies (Gatherings/Alfred),
Flip Grater
(Grater Goods), Max Perry
and Samson Stewart (Fifth
Street), Andy Bardsley (ex-The
Bicycle Thief), Eeva Torvinen
(The Monday Room) and
Giulio Sturla (ex-Roots).
Working from the Davinia
Sutton-designed garden
kitchen and using herbs and
vegetables from the surrounding
“picking pantry”, the
chefs will take turns to create
dishes from a plant-based
mystery box.

Hamilton says that the
events of the past year have
meant that everyone has had
to refocus on what’s important.

we have to offer,” she says.

Perfect job for an interest in nature
Dean Pendrigh is the
collections curator for
the water garden, azalea
garden and the pinetum in
the Botanic Gardens and
has been working there for
the past 35 years. He talks
to Ella Somers
SKILLED: Dean Pendrigh tends to the plants in the Botanic Gardens. He has always had
an interest in nature.
A PASSION for nature led Dean
Pendrigh to pursue a botanical
career immediately after high
school and he started his
four-year apprenticeship at the
Botanic Gardens in 1986.
His apprenticeship included a
brief scholarship to Melbourne,
on his return he continued working
at the gardens.
Pendrigh said he has “always
had an interest in nature” but it
wasn’t until high school when his
uncle introduced him to orchids
that “really got me interested in
plants and native plants as well.”
He enjoys botanical work
because every season is different
and “something will be far better
one year and not the other,” he
said.
“I like the biogeography and
learning about where plants
come from and how plants react
to other plants and in different
countries.”
As well as maintaining the
collections and keeping careful
plant records, a large part of Pendrigh’s
job includes tasks such as
weeding, pruning, and cutting
hedges.
Watering takes up a lot of time
as well because “a lot of my areas
don’t have any actual automated
irrigation so we do it by hand,”
he said.
Due to the names of plants
changing frequently, updating
and labelling records is a
continual project and can be

frustrating.
“You get to know the name of
a plant and then a botanist will
change it,” Pendrigh said.
“Sometimes you’ll change a
label and then they’ll change it
back to the original name.”
Pendrigh said that while he
gets a lot of good comments
from people who come through
the garden, “a lot of people
don’t realise how much work is
involved,” he said.
In comparison to other trades
as well, it’s not recognised as
much as it should be.
“There is a lot of knowledge
that you need to know, and it
takes a long time to build up that
knowledge, especially that plant
knowledge,” he said.
“The names of plants you have
to learn as well, it’s like learning
another language.”
Pendrigh’s passion for
“everything botanical” has
inspired him to travel to
places across the world where
interesting flora lives, including
Africa.
“They’ve got a very diverse
flora,” he said.
“It increased my interest in
plants even more seeing them in
their natural habitat.”
He doesn’t have a favourite
plant but if he had to name his
favourite plant group, it would be
plants from the southern hemisphere,
New Zealand, Australia,
and South Africa in particular.
“There’s some interesting links
between the floras of those countries,”
Pendrigh said.
“And because I’ve seen them in
the wild, you appreciate them a
lot more.”
One of the most interesting
visitors that the Botanic Gardens
has had in Pendrigh’s time was
a visit from the Dalai Lama in
1992.
“He planted a himalayan pine
tree in my area,” Pendrigh said.
Unfortunately, the tree was
stolen a week after it was planted
and neither the thief nor the
Dalai Lama’s tree were ever
found.
The tree that now grows where
the Dalai Lama’s one used to be
“is one that I actually planted,”
Pendrigh said.

Yacht club to celebrate 100 years
PLEASANT POINT Yacht Club celebrates
its centennial this weekend.
The club, now based in South New
Brighton Park, began in 1921 on the shores
of the estuary just behind where the South
New Brighton School is today. The area was
then known as Pleasant Point Domain.
In 1929 the club moved across to the
western shore to an area of mud flats at the
mouth of the Avon River that would become
known as Rat Island.
Over the years, the club built up and
improved the land together with the club
facilities and held summer sailing and
racing programmes, teaching hundreds of
children and adults how to sail. That was
until the first of the Canterbury earthquakes
on September 4, 2010 damaged the
buildings and land beyond repair.
In the 10 years since, it found a new site
and has built a new yacht club (opened in
September 2019) in South New Brighton
Park – just a stone’s throw from where it all
began in 1921.
The centennial celebrations will provide
a great opportunity to relive the highs and
lows of the club’s 100 years, especially the
last 10 years of the rebuild.
The celebrations kick off with a noggin
‘n natter on Friday night, on Saturday, the
Sullivan Cup, which is the club’s main open
event, will be sailed, coupled with another
major trophy, the Arch Lamb trophy for the
Sunburst class.
The races will feature multi-hulls, trailer
yachts and senior and junior racing dingy
classes and are open to other yacht club
members.
Saturday’s sailing will be followed by a
celebration dinner.
On Sunday, the club will run its Classic
Yacht Race, first sailed at the club’s 75th
celebrations. This will be coupled with a
display of classic boats of all types owned
by members of the Classic Boat Group of
Canterbury. There will be plenty for the
public to see on Saturday and Sunday.
For more information, phone Ian Douglas
on 027 4719 208.
EXCITED: Nigel
Humphreys of the
Pleasant Point Yacht Club
getting ready for a big
weekend.

Make a great first impression before your buyers even get inside!
First impressions always count, and it will
certainly matter when potential buyers
come to view your home. Before potential
customers have set foot inside your house,
it’s likely that they have already formed their
first impression of your house. If you want
your house to stand out then you will need to
work on what your house looks like from the
outside first.
What does this mean though? Imagine you
are the buyer as you walk through your front
yard, look at all the things that you think are
unappealing – a hard to unlock or open gate,
broken fence palings, weeds growing through
the cracks in the footpath. There are so many
little things that could turn off potential
buyers, so it’s best to go through and fix
those little things up.
• Mow and edge trim your lawns, fertilise
them ahead of time so they are nice and
green for the marketing campaign
• Waterblast your paths and driveway
• Wash down your house or give it a touchup
coat of paint if required
Check Your Insurance Policy!
Insurance policies, like any legal document
tend to have a lot of ‘fine print’ which a lot of
us tend to ‘speed read’ over – but what are
you missing?
It is important to check your policy to find out
what your requirements are when you have
a rental property. You must have insurance
on both the dwelling and the contents as
this covers fixtures and fittings, like carpets,
curtains, and even internal walls, and even if
the tenants have insurance their own policy
will not cover these things.
One thing that is very important is the
frequency of inspections, and what is
required. I know my own insurance policy
Recently Sold!
• Trim any hedges and importantly any
bushes or plants that might be covering
windows and blocking light into the home
• If you have outdoor lighting have this in
good working order with some nice bright
bulbs, this is very important during a
winter sale
• Tidy up any sheds, playhouses, sandpits,
fishponds, water features, clotheslines or
vege boxes that you have in your yard. If
there time has come it might be better to
take these away altogether before going
to market otherwise a lick of paint or
wood stain will go a long way
• Add some greenery by your front door
with a nice pot or planter box
• A new letterbox is an inexpensive way to
make your place standout from the street.
To get some inspiration have a walk around
your neighbourhood and see which homes
standout as giving a great first impression
and make some notes as to what makes them
appeal without evening setting a foot inside!
for my rental properties stipulates that an
inspection must be done at least every three
months, and I must have a documented and
dated report to show that the inspection has
been done. I for one don’t want to find out
what the consequence of not complying is.
It was also brought to my attention that if
there is problem at the end of the tenancy
and you have not carried out all the due
diligence on checking the tenants before
they move in, this could pose a problem for
you to make any claims on damages, either
accidental or intentional, not to mention if
the property was contaminated by meth!
So in a nutshell, you need to conduct
Vanessa Golightly,
Business Owner
and Licensee Agent
Ray White Papanui

thorough checks on tenants before they
move in and make sure you conduct your
routine inspections as per your insurance
policy.
