RENEWING<br />
STORMWATER PIPES<br />
Work will begin on renewing<br />
the stormwater pipes along<br />
the western side of St Martins<br />
School next week. The existing<br />
pipes have reached the end of<br />
their economic life and need<br />
replacing. The work is expected<br />
to take three weeks and will<br />
begin on Tuesday, running from<br />
Monday to Friday, 7am-6pm.<br />
Vehicles driving through<br />
park ‘a safety concern’<br />
• By Emily Moorhouse<br />
ANTI-VEHICLE bollards may<br />
be installed at Radley Park,<br />
Woolston, after complaints of<br />
anti-social driving through the<br />
area.<br />
Linwood Ward councillor<br />
Yani Johanson was approached<br />
by a local resident concerned of<br />
damage being caused to the park<br />
by vehicles driving through it.<br />
Johanson raised the issue at<br />
a Waikura Linwood-Central-<br />
Heathcote Community<br />
Board meeting after the<br />
resident put a customer<br />
service request through to<br />
the city council.<br />
The resident was told city<br />
council staff will monitor<br />
the situation, with no<br />
signage recommended,<br />
so the ticket (report) was<br />
closed.<br />

Johanson<br />
UNAUTHORISED: The entrance to Radley Park (left) where<br />
a resident wants bollards installed to stop vehicles entering.<br />
Johanson said vehicles were<br />
driving through the park<br />
where the cycle connection<br />
is. He said he has followed<br />
this up with the city<br />
council, as well as raising it<br />
with the community board.<br />
Johanson said he hopes<br />
staff can find a suitable<br />
solution to the problem,<br />
such as temporary signage<br />
to prevent vehicles entering the<br />
area, until bollards can<br />
be installed.<br />
“It’s a safety concern as well,<br />
there’s a dog area there and a<br />
playground and cycleways,” he<br />
said.<br />
City council community<br />
parks manager Al Hardy said<br />
community parks staff have<br />
received the action item from<br />
the community board and will<br />
provide advice at a future meeting.<br />
FARM’S NEW TRUSTEES<br />
The Addington Farm has<br />
appointed four new board<br />
of trustees: Rosemarie<br />
North, Annie Huang, Tracey<br />
Gallagher and Sean Pawson. The<br />
farm will formally welcome the<br />
new trustees on site on Saturday,<br />
as well as celebrating five years<br />

GRANT FOR SPORTS<br />
UNIFORMS<br />
The Waihoro Spreydon-<br />
Cashmere Community Board<br />
has approved a grant of $1500 to<br />
the Smash Volleyball Club to go<br />
towards uniforms. The money<br />
comes from the discretionary<br />
response fund. The club was<br />
established in 1975, and this year<br />
has seen an increase in players,<br />
especially from the Pasifika<br />
community and a large cohort<br />
from Te Whanau Tahi, resulting<br />
in a men’s team for the first time<br />
in several years.<br />

Jayne and I would like to thank you for the work you’ve done to get us where<br />
we are today. Bit of a blur really. Every step in the process has gone into<br />
achieving the result today that exceeded our expectations. The detail and<br />
professionalism has been on point. Staging, photography, the video along<br />
with the marketing campaign all leading to a great property to present to<br />
the market. These aspects all set the scene perfectly for the open homes and<br />
visits leading to today’s outstanding auction result. Quiet night tonight but<br />
sure there will be a few celebratory drinks later in the week.<br />
