Balloting begins for Coastal by-election
• By John Cosgrove
VOTERS WILL start receiving
ballot papers today to elect a new
Coastal Ward councillor.
Seven candidates are vying for
the seat vacated by James Daniels
in May.
Daniels triggered the byelection
when he announced
he was leaving the role and the
$114,130 pay packet to work as
a co-host on the Newstalk ZB
afternoon show.
He had ousted two-term
councillor David East in the 2019
local body elections by a slender
339 votes.
Now East is back, seeking to
reclaim his seat, along with six
others.
They are: Kelly Barber
(The People’s Choice), the
current chairman of the
Coastal-Burwood Community
Board; Celeste Donovan
(Independent – Positive
Community Action), the current
chairwoman of the New Brighton
Residents Association; Katie
Hays; Andre Hopman
(Independent); Caleb Isaacs
(Independent); and Nikora Nitro.
The election pledges of the
candidates reflected the word
on the street at New Brighton
when Pegasus Post asked a cross
section of residents what they
were seeking from candidates in
a by-election estimated to cost
about $65,000.
Michelle Nicolls of South
Brighton wants candidates to
concentrate of the basics.
“Get our roads
fixed instead of
giving us fancy
new stuff, just
give us the basics
and we’ll be
happy,” she said.
New Brighton
Michelle retailer Dennis
Nicolls Shrimpton
believes they all
have the best of intentions but it’s
obvious some have it and some
don’t.
“Some mean
well and I’m
impressed with
them, I believe
that if they are
elected it bodes
well for our
Dennis
Shrimpton
community, I
just hope they
give Brighton a
big smack on the
bum and lift it up,” he said.

Newell Grenfell was one of

The New Brighton Photographic

Because of Covid restrictions
Newell Grenfell said he, like
many others, had to go deep into
his archives to find entries.
“This image was taken several
years ago at Motukarara during
one of those mud run events,”
he said.

TACKING through Covid-19
regulations ensures a fair wind for the
Pleasant Point Yacht Club as it starts
sailing this weekend.
On Saturday, the club will launch its
101 st season on the estuary.
Club committee member Nigel
Humphreys said they will be out
on the estuary from the South New
Brighton Park as they host an open
race for dinghy sailors.
“Despite Covid we’ll be out there,
but because of the delay in opening
by many other clubs in the district we
are expecting a slightly lower turnout
than in previous years.”
The race starts at 2.40pm and
Humphreys said spectators and those
interested in sailing are welcome to
come along.
“Our 101 st season is going to be a
good one as we have new boats and
facilities on hand, they are great and
make a vast improvement from five
years in containers.”
He credits the new facilities
and the heightened interest in
sailing due to the recent America’s
Cup and Olympics as the reason
for the growing interest in sailing.
“Some come for the social side
and some come to race, to help them
all we will be starting junior and
adult Learn to Sail programmes in
October.”
The junior course will run during
the school holidays from October 11
through to October 15, while the adult
learn to sail course will run from
OPEN DAY: The new Pleasant Point Yacht Club facilities will host a
dinghy race meeting this weekend. Senior boats compete in one
of the many races the club holds each sailing season out on the
estuary.
October 17 through to November 13.
The courses follow the
Yachting NZ coaching programme
and will be run by the club’s learn to
sail co-ordinators Dan O’Sullivan
and Brett Hawkes, with assistance of
experienced club members.
No experience is needed to
take part and the club will
supply yachts and life jackets … but
recommend suitable footwear and
warm clothing.

Hearing panel on freedom camping continues
• By John Cosgrove
THE TESTY issue of freedom
camping in the city continues to
polarise opinion.
The city council’s bylaw hearings
panel was due to reconvene
this morning after spending all
of last Monday hearing submissions
for the proposed replacement
Freedom Camping Bylaw
2021.
Submitters assembled to
consider the proposal to make
changes to the freedom camping
bylaw that covers Christchurch
and Banks Peninsula, which was
first introduced five years ago.
Panel members, councillors
Phil Mauger, Tim Scandrett and
Deputy Mayor Andrew Turner,
were to restart the process again
this morning.
Of the 97 submissions
received, 12 were from
organisations, three were from
businesses and 82 were from
individual submitters.
The proposed bylaw changes
include making a temporary
ban on freedom camping in
the North Beach car park
permanent. The ban would apply
at weekends from October to
May to enable good access to the
carpark when it is at its busiest.
Proposed changes also include
creating a city coastal restricted
zone, where freedom campers
could stay for up to four nights
in any 30-day period. This new
zone would prevent campers
using the current 500m rule to
move short distances every few
days and stay in the coastal area
for extended periods of time.
Another proposed change is
the introduction of a new rule to
encourage campers to be more
careful about how they set up
their vehicles and camping gear.
The rule would prevent campers
from blocking thoroughfares
and spreading out.
The last element focuses on
creating a specified area at Naval
Point in Lyttelton where freedom
campers can stay, and limiting
the number of freedom camping
spots to 18 vehicles.
A report prepared by council
staff for the hearings panel
said most of the submissions
received are generally supportive
of the proposed bylaw changes,
EMPTY NOW:

COSGROVE
although some disagreed and
others put forward suggestions
to further improve the bylaw.
The main area of contention
was the City Coastal Restricted
Zone proposal.
The report notes submissions
on this proposal were very
mixed.
There was strong
opposition mentioned in the
report in relation to Southshore
being included, with some wanting
camping prohibited
instead.
The hearings panel will be
considering all the matters raised
in the submissions and then will
seek advice from staff before
making recommendations to
council on the final form of the
bylaw.
The aim of the panel is to have
an updated Freedom Camping
Bylaw in place by the start of
the summer.

Big job expected for successful candidate
• From page 1
Facility manager Samantha Fay
said whoever gets elected will have
a big job on their hands.
“I think they all have to realise
what a huge job it will be representing
this area, they cannot consider
it as a part-time job as we have such
a diverse community here.
The candidates
“It’s a long ward and the candidates
need to look beyond focusing
on the mall regeneration and have
a broader overview of what need to
be done in all the communities that
make up our ward,” she said.
Hair salon owner Felicity Patterson
(right) wants more doing and
less talking. “The council needs to
really sort out the landlords here as
they need to be more accountable.”
Retiree Terry O’Keefe said he
hasn’t made up his mind yet who to
support, but he is hoping for someone
who is practically minded.
“I hope they are practical people
who are much better at working
than those who just talk about
theory all the time.”
Voting closes at noon, Friday, October
8. But electoral officer Jo Daly
is urging people to vote quickly.
The 2019 elections reflected a
response by only 42.13 per cent
or 6509 of the 15,447 eligible voters.
This was a 2.08 per cent increase
from the previous 2016 elections.
Kelly Barber
(Labour) –
The current
chairman of
the Coastal-
Burwood
Community
Board. His
vision is to see the community
bursting with new life. “I
will be continuing to build
strong relationships within the
community and with those who
make the decisions.”
Celeste
Donovan
(Independent
- Positive
Community
Action) –
The current
chairwoman
of the New Brighton Residents’
Association believes coastal
communities need a strong
local advocate who listens to
residents and gives 100 per
cent commitment to the job.
“My promise to you is to stay
engaged, to listen and work hard
for the strong communities,
healthy environment and better
future that we all deserve.”
David East
(Independent)
was the previous
councillor cites
his previous
six years’
experience on
the city council
and nine years community
board service essential for him
to continue advocating for all
people. His key election focus
includes addressing issues
that matter most to residents,
progression of New Brighton
Mall initiatives, and roads and
footpaths.
Katie Hays, a
property
manager,
believes the
most urgent
need is
regeneration of
the mall. “It’s
the core of our communitygeographically,
historically,
and culturally. I am running
because I feel passionate about
this undertaking and qualified to
achieve what is necessary.”
Andre Hopman
(Independent), a businessman in
New Brighton, believes people
can’t forget the basics that will
ensure Coastal
Christchurch
remains a great
place to live,
work and invest.
“We know what
needs doing here
and why it’s so
important. I’m standing as an
independent, because I believe
there is no room for party
politics in local government.”
Caleb Isaacs
(Independent),
a small
business owner,
musician and
New Brighton
resident who
believes it’s time
the ward had
fresh representation. “We don’t
need political parties meddling
in local politics, we need an
unfiltered voice and someone
who won’t be afraid to ask hard
questions and ruffle feathers.”
Nikora
Nitro would
like people to
vote for him
in this year’s
Coastal Ward
by-election
because “you
are amazing,
fabulous, fantastic, unique and
so am I.” “I believe that together
we can make transformational
differences and lead the way
as a ward of the city council in
the art of celebrating diversity
and looking after its people.”
My campaign strategy is to
bring people together from all
backgrounds.

help now more

Knitters give babies a warm welcome
FOUR WOMEN from
Ferrymead Rotary have knitted
almost 100 garments for babies
born at the Christchurch
Women’s Hospital this year.
Pat Edward, Debbie Woolf,
Kathryn Tovgaard and Barbara
Crooks began the project about
four months ago, although the
Ferrymead Rotary group has
been providing knitted clothing
to the hospital for some time.
Kathryn has personally been
knitting for the hospital for five
years.
Barbara said they intensified
their efforts this year after
receiving a call for help from the
hospital.
All babies born at the hospital
are given a woollen hat at birth,
while woollen singlets, matinee
jackets and booties are available
for mothers to take home.
So far, the group has knitted
more than 60 woolly hats, with
Pat heading the count.
The hats produced are a variety
of different sizes and colours.
Barbara said Ferrymead
Rotary has funded some of the
wool, but all of the knitters’ time
is given voluntarily.
They estimate up to seven
hours goes into making each hat.
Most of the knitting has been
done individually, although the
four have got together from time
to time to share wool and
swap notes.
Acknowledging Rotary clubs
used to be men only, Kathryn
said: “People don’t necessarily
connect Rotarians with knitting
but anything is possible.”
She said being a part of
a Rotary club was a family
tradition.
“One thing I said a long time
ago was that I always wanted
to help out in the community
throughout my life,” she said.
“A group of people can do
so much more than just an
individual.”
CHAMPION KNITTERS:
Ferrymead Rotary’s Kathryn
Tovgaard, Debbie Woolf, Pat
Edward and Barbara Crooks
have knitted almost 100
garments for new babies,
while Pat tries on a hat for
size (above).
Ferrymead Rotary community
director Debbie Woolf said the
club is also working on making
singlets and booties for Plunket
and supplying the Methodist
Mission with bedding, jerseys,
hats, scarves, gloves and shoes.
The Mission gives these items,
donated or sourced by Rotary
members, to homeless people.

Club president Guy Wright said
it was a good turnout, considering
how people have been living
during the lockdowns of recent
times.
“This year we had 66 very good
entries . . . by some of the top
amateur photographers keen to
showcase life in the country,” he
said.
Entrants competed for the top

Top chefs to provide
fundraising dinner
PREPARE FOR your palettes to
be tantalised.
The culinary talents of three
award-winning Canterbury
chefs will entertain guests at the
Cancer Society Canterbury-West
Coast Division’s fundraising
dinner event Too Many Cooks
on October 9.
Appearing at the Majestic on
Durham event space, guests will
be treated to a delicious threecourse
meal, with the added
bonus of being able to watch the
chefs preparing it live on stage,
while the witty banter of MC
Michele A’Court keeps everyone
on their toes.
Division manger for fundraising,
communications and
relationships, Heather Locke
said they wanted to take the traditional
fundraising dinner and
add something special.
“We approached Jimmy McIntyre
(executive chef at Otahuna
Lodge), Darren Wright (former
head chef at Chillingworth
Road) and Andrew Brown (former
executive chef at the George
Hotel) and they were delighted
to be involved,” Locke said.
During the evening an auction
of rare and original items
including a one-of-a-kind sculpture
and a central city parking
space for a year will be on offer.
TALENTS: Otahuna Lodge
chef Jimmy McIntyre is
one of three award-winning
Canterbury chefs preparing
to entertain guests at the
Cancer Society Canterbury-
West Coast Division’s
fundraising dinner event. ​
“Each year, 500 New
Zealanders receive the
unwelcome news that they
have cancer. But while cancer
doesn’t stop for Covid, the recent
lockdowns severely limited our
ability to fundraise during the
past 18 months.
“The loss of the annual
daffodil day appeal was a big
blow to our fundraising efforts
this year and for this reason,
we are really hoping that
Cantabrians will support this
event,” she said.

Here’s what our customers have to say:
We advertise Affordable Furniture specials
in The Star every week and are extremely
pleased with the results.
We find that the large circulation and
readership, really works for reaching our
target market and growing our customers.
We get people coming in with our ad and
asking about the specials we advertise.
We have been benefiting from the
Christchurch Star and Community papers
for 20 years and see no end to it.
Andrew Idour – Managing Director,
Affordable Furniture
After 4 years advertising in the Bay
Harbour News, I decided to widen
my audience by using the Star.
I am very happy with new ad
placement.
My husband Tim was in the shop
today and 2 ladies had come in
to check us out because they had
seen the ad!!! Oh yes they did buy
some goodies!!
Rose Lindley – Mumma Bear
We have advertised with The Star
over the years.
Advertising in The Star we feel we
get more response and feedback
than any other marketing.
We are lucky to have such a great
free paper in the community.
Thanks team Star.
