LAST WEEK the city<br />
council received a<br />
significant number of<br />
deputations on the city<br />
council’s submission on<br />
the proposed law change<br />
that would require us to<br />
amend our district plan<br />
to allow most of the city’s<br />
residential sections to<br />
be subdivided into three<br />
properties, each of three or<br />
more storeys.<br />
THis would mean there<br />
would be minimal or no<br />
restrictions, often without<br />
resource consent being<br />
required or the public<br />
being notified.<br />
<strong>The</strong>y were very concerned<br />
about the loss of<br />
greenspace and trees, and<br />
a detriment to local amenity<br />
and the liveability of<br />
local neighbourhoods. We<br />
agree.<br />
We made it clear that the<br />
city council is supportive<br />
of the Government’s<br />
aims to address housing<br />
shortages and enable the<br />
delivery of a wider range of<br />
housing options.<br />
It might have been a<br />
bi-partisan announcement,<br />
however, there had been<br />
no prior engagement with<br />
local government and<br />
with residents of cities like<br />
ours.<br />
<strong>The</strong> legislation is<br />
going to have significant<br />
impacts on council’s placemaking,<br />
land-use and<br />
infrastructure planning<br />
work, as well as on our<br />
local communities and<br />
neighbourhoods.<br />
We think a collaborative<br />
partnership between local<br />
and central government<br />
would produce better<br />
outcomes than a onesize-fits-all,<br />
legislative<br />
approach. But we have said<br />
this before.<br />
<strong>The</strong>re seems to be little<br />
consideration of the<br />
work the city has done<br />
OPINION 21<br />
One-size-fits-all is not<br />
the way to go when it<br />
comes to city planning<br />
Mayor<br />
Lianne Dalziel<br />
with our neighbouring<br />
districts dating back to<br />
the Greater Christchurch<br />
Urban Development<br />
Strategy, something which<br />
helped us get through the<br />
displacement impacts of<br />
the 2010/2011 Canterbury<br />
earthquakes, with the<br />
development of the Land<br />
Use Recovery Plan and<br />
Replacement District<br />
Plan. We have already<br />
committed to increased<br />
residential growth through<br />
intensification, rather than<br />
urban sprawl.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Government Policy<br />
Statement on Housing<br />
and Urban Development<br />
says that ‘places should be<br />
accessible, connected, well<br />
designed and resilient’.<br />
We agree and that’s what<br />
missing from the one-sizefits-all<br />
approach.<br />
FOCUS ON HEALTH<br />
Amazing health miracles<br />
from the silkworm<br />
Serrapeptase an enzyme produced in<br />
silkworms may become one of the most<br />
widely used natural health solutions<br />
for its ability to replace the majority of<br />
anti-inflammatory drugs and bypass<br />
operations. It is nature’s answer to pain,<br />
chronic inflammation and clogged<br />
arteries. Enzymes are essential for<br />
life. Constantly working to build and<br />
regenerate the body, they help digest<br />
food, break down toxins and cleanse the<br />
blood, in addition to thousands of other<br />
functions. A lack of enzymes in the body<br />
leads to food intolerances, allergies,<br />
digestive issues, disease and poor health.<br />
Studies show an average 70-year old has<br />
only 20 percent of the enzymes found in<br />
the body of a 20-year old.<br />
Serrapeptase is a natural antiinflammatory,<br />
which can clean, clear<br />
and reduce inflammation while<br />
dissolving non-living tissue including<br />
blood clots, cysts, arterial plaque and<br />
mucus. One of its major benefits is its<br />
ability to reduce pain.<br />
<strong>The</strong> serrapeptase enzyme was first<br />
found in the intestine of the silkworm<br />
in the late 1960’s. <strong>The</strong> silkworm uses it<br />
to dissolve the hard cocoon, allowing<br />
the moth to escape as well as to digest<br />
the tough mulberry leaves it feeds on.<br />
Serrapeptase can now be produced<br />
commercially by a fermentation process<br />
of the microorganism Serriata E15. It is<br />
prescribed by doctors across Europe and<br />
Asia.<br />
Clinical studies over the last 40 years<br />
Thursday <strong>November</strong> <strong>18</strong> <strong>2021</strong> <strong>The</strong> <strong>Star</strong><br />
have shown serrapeptase to have<br />
remarkable benefits in a vast range of<br />
health conditions including; blocked<br />
arteries, cardiovascular, arthritis,<br />
asthma, lung conditions, pain, tumors,<br />
autoimmune disease and many more.<br />
In Germany, Dr. Hans Nieper clinically<br />
researched serrapeptase and found it<br />
could clear blocked arteries and prevent<br />
the need for bypass operations. U.K.<br />
pharmacist Dennis Gore talked on BBC<br />
radio about the dramatic results he has<br />
had with serrapeptase. One case was a<br />
man in his 60’s who had been a heavy<br />
smoker, was wheeled into his pharmacy.<br />
He was breathless due to emphysema<br />
and COPD and could hardly talk. He<br />
was on antibiotics, oxygen and getting<br />
bad infections. Dennis prescribed him<br />
serrapeptase and three weeks later the<br />
man walked into his pharmacy, with<br />
no wheelchair and no breathlessness<br />
and said to Dennis he was no longer on<br />
antibiotics, nor oxygen cylinders and<br />
was feeling great.<br />
Serrapeptase has been shown to be<br />
very safe supplement and according<br />
to researchers can be used with most<br />
medications. However let your doctor<br />
know as medications may need reducing<br />
or stopping as the need for them<br />
reduces.<br />

Benefits from<br />
the silkworm<br />
Serrapeptase, an enzyme first discovered in the silkworm, could<br />
become one of the most widely used natural health remedies due<br />
to its ability to potentially replace the majority of anti-inflammatory<br />
drugs & bypass operations.<br />
Serrapeptase is a natural anti-inflammatory enzyme that according<br />
to research can clean, clear & reduce inflammation while safely<br />
dissolving non-living tissue such as blood clots, cysts, arterial<br />
plaque & mucus. One of its major benefits is its ability to reduce<br />
pain & clear clogged arteries.<br />
