THE TWO Selwyn-based police officers
who captured the mosque terrorist
have received the New Zealand Bravery
Decoration for their exceptional courage
in arresting the terrorist.
Senior Constables Scott Carmody and
Jim Manning were among nine people
who risked their lives in acts of great
bravery during the terror attacks on
March 15, 2019, which were recognised
at a special ceremony last week by
Governor-General Dame Cindy Kiro.
Police Commissioner Andrew Coster
said Carmody and Manning made a
great judgement call about the gunman’s
escape route.
“They’re not the kind of characters

Pages 19 & 20
who would call themselves heroes.
They’re very reluctant to be recognised,
they would say it’s what any cop
would have done, but we recognise the
incredible courage they showed,” he
said.
The pair rammed the terrorist’s
vehicle off the road when they spotted
him driving along Brougham St.
Manning dragged him from the car
while Carmody covered with a rifle. The
terrorist, who was believed to have been
heading south to launch another attack
after wreaking carnage at the Al Noor
and Linwood mosques, was handcuffed
and apprehended.

Rolleston Industrial Holdings
has lodged a resource consent
to build the centre on 18ha of
land north of Jones Rd, near
IPort.
To be called The Station, once
built it would be one and a half
times bigger than Tower Junction
in Christchurch, said Rolleston
Industrial Holdings director Tim
Carter.
“We have applied for resource
consent from Selwyn District
Council to establish The Station,
a large format retail development
with other commercial activities,
buildings, car parking and landscaping,”
he said.
Carter said the name of the
proposed large format retail
centre was chosen to acknowledge
Rolleston’s early history as a
railway terminal.

A RESIDENTS’ group
spearheading opposition to the
controversial Lincoln South
housing development has
launched a Givealittle campaign
to finance legal action.
Lincoln Voice aims to raise
$150,000 to lodge an appeal with
the Environment Court after district
councillors voted to rezone
190ha of rural land to facilitate
the Carter Group’s 1700-unit
subdivision.
The June
8 decision
followed two
rounds of
public consultation
and
independent
commissioner
David Caldwell
recommending
the district council approve the
necessary plan change.
Residents claim the
township was not equipped to
handle an expansion of that
magnitude.
Lincoln Voice, which was
established on July 1, has until
August 4 to lodge its appeal.
Lincoln Voice member Denise
Carrick created the Givealittle
page which proclaims: “Help us
protect Lincoln’s Soil & Save our
Future” last Wednesday, and
embraced the challenge of taking
on the district council.
“I’m sure some will think it
is an impossible battle but we
really want to stand up for
the future of our soils, our
ability to grow food and our
neighbourhood to make sure it
is developed in a logical, healthy

and sustainable way,” she said.
“The amount of money we
are trying to raise may seem
enormous but once you start
looking into the cost of specialist
lawyers and expert witnesses the
amounts quickly add up, and we
have been warned these cases
can be dragged out intentionally
to drain our resources and wear
us down.”
It was estimated $7000 would
be required to prepare and lodge
the appeal, while the $150,000
figure should cover legal fees.
Any excess funds would be applied
to future projects.
By 2pm Monday $3050 had
been contributed by 33 donors.

Miller will
not stand
for mayor
• By Susan Sandys
GRANT MILLER has decided
not to run for the mayoralty in
October’s local body elections,
but will stand for re-election as a
councillor for the Springs Ward.
“I certainly thought long and
hard about the mayoralty, I have
some different ideas than the current
leadership, but as it stands at
the moment I can’t commit to that
role,” Miller told the Selwyn Times.
Nominations for local body
elections open Friday. Currently
the only person who has confirmed
they will stand for election
as mayor is incumbent Sam
Broughton.
Miller said he wanted to continue
to dedicate himself to other
governance roles he was already
involved with, including those on
the boards of Central Plains Water
and Transwaste Canterbury.
As such, it was not the right time
to stand for the role. He said he
may consider it in future.
He encouraged others to consider
standing for mayor, adding
that he believed it would be “sad”
for Selwyn if Broughton stood
unopposed.
“There needs to be a contest of
ideas,” Miller said.

METRO’S TRIAL commuter
bus service between Lincoln,
Leeston and Southbridge will
be extended another year.
If residents want to keep
route 87 beyond that, they will
need to make more use of it
Environment Canterbury has
indicated.
The trial will now continue
through to July 2023. The
extension will help determine
whether Covid-19 has affected
passenger numbers over the
past year.
First launched in 2019, the
trial has already been altered
and extended a number of
times in an effort to provide
the community with a service
that will attract enough patronage
to make it permanent,
Metro spokesman Thomas
McNaughton said.
“This 12-month extension
is a great opportunity for the
community to give this fantastic
service a go and ensure
we can continue to provide a
sustainable connection to the
city,” McNaughton said.
The trial service is comprised
of three trips a day
aimed at commuters and
students. It starts at 6.43am
from Southbridge to Lincoln,
with return services at 4.11pm
and 6.08pm from Lincoln to
Southbridge.
Upcoming fare changes
ROUTE 87: Metro’s trial commuter bus service between Lincoln, Leeston and
Southbridge has been extended until July 2023.

mean big savings for zone
3 commuters with many
customers already having
half-price fares for the past few
months. This Governmentfunded
discount has been
extended until the end of
August.
Tertiary students at participating
providers will also get
to travel for less with child
fares coming into effect from
mid-July.
In addition to these
initiatives, ECan has
announced big changes to the
bus fare structure for Greater
Christchurch from February
2023 following the most recent
Annual Plan consultation.
These changes will mean flat
fares of $2 for adults and $1 for
under-25s across the existing
three zones on the Metro
network.
Tertiary students, Total Mobility
Card holders and Community
Services Card holders
will also only pay $1.
Bringing all the zones into
one single zone will have a
huge impact on the cost of
public transport for people
living in the outer areas of
Greater Christchurch such
as Leeston and Southbridge.
An adult will save 60 per
cent or $2.70 less per trip
compared to a standard zone 3
fare, while a child fare will be
a 70 per cent saving compared
to the standard zone 3 fare
which will also include adults
under 25.
Another reason the route
87 trial has been extended is
to give the community time
to take advantage of these
cheaper fares and for more
people to start using the bus.
The community needs to
show that there is a need and
demand for public transport
in their area by using the
service.
While May 2022 did show
an increase in passengers with
half-price fares, overall the
number of customers using
route 87 has decreased.

SAM HARVEY was running
on adrenaline, undeterred by a
weeping calloused wound on a
big toe.
His two remaining closest
challengers in Christchurch’s
ground-breaking endurance test
were running on empty, as darkness
fell over Spencer Park.
It was no stroll on the beach
for Harvey and 118 other competitors
in the Krayzie Midwinter
Backyard Ultra, the first time
the ‘last man standing’ format
had been staged in the city.
Harvey achieved that exalted
status, 28 hours 41 minutes and
28 seconds after the field tackled
their first 6.706km loop from
7.30am on July 2.
The 29-year-old Springstonraised
ultra distance athlete
ultimately completed 35 loops,
one more than Queenstown’s
Brandon Purdie and Dunedin’s
John Bayne.
Harvey had the relative luxury
of coasting to the finish the following
night, in spite of needing
running repairs deep into his
234.85km journey.
“When I was going through
that little moment of softness, I
think it was the 180km mark,”
he said, “a callus on my big toe
came away, I had a chunk of flesh
rubbing in my shoe.
“I thought: ‘This could be my
Latest Canterbury news at starnews.co.nz
race over’ but I came into the
race base, ripped my shoe off,
wrapped it up and got back out
there.
“There was no pain. I thought:
‘You marvellous bastard, you’ve
fixed it’ and I just kept on with
the positive self-talk. I found my
groove and it was my race from
then as far as I’m concerned,” he
said.
While supreme fitness was
obviously a prerequisite, Harvey
was fortified – and hamstrung
– by a 10th place finish in the
Southern Sydney 24 Hour Ultra
a month earlier, winning the
mind games was also essential.
“I think if you endure a lifetime
of suffering or mental hardships
it prepares you very well for
this,” he said.
“I battled with some demons
in the night, especially on
Sunday morning. Going into it
with the rig already busted up
and broken down (from Sydney)
gave me a pretty good handicap.
“The voices in your head start
saying: ‘You’re not good enough
or maybe it wouldn’t be so bad
if you quit. Your family will still
love you’ that sort of s**t.’”
Giving up was never an option
for Harvey, who managed to
rehydrate at the end of each
circuit after making sure to
conserve enough energy as

rivals wilted.
“It’s better to just go slow, take
it easy and not damage your
body too much and have a short
rest at the end of each lap.”
Runners had an hour to complete
each loop, giving Harvey a
manageable target.
“Because this course was so
much flatter I buttoned back and
did my casual 52-minute loops
and let the bravado boys carry
on doing their 45-minute loops,
which ended up stinging them.”
Harvey’s next assignment is
the New Zealand leg of the Backyard
Ultra world championships
in October, where 15-strong
teams from each country compete
on their home track at the
same time.
Although a team event,
each country’s lead runner is
rewarded with entry in the 2023
Backyard Ultra world championships
in the United States.
Harvey completed his first ‘last
man standing’ event in Auckland
last year, though his interest in
long distance running goes back
further to his teenage years.
“I played rugby and I did boxing
and triathlon. They require
running and that’s the thing I’m
actually best at so that was my
focus,” he said.
“All roads led back to
running.”

‘I was thinking: ‘There’s a good
likelihood we’re going to die’
Selwyn-based
senior constables
Jim Manning and
Scott Carmody
spoke to police
magazine Ten
One about how
they captured the
mosque terrorist
MANNING AND Carmody
were on a routine tactical training
exercise at The Princess Margaret
Hospital in Cashmere – which
included armed offender and
room clearance exercises – on
March 15, 2019, when the news
broke.
There was shooting, there were
dead and injured people in Deans
Ave. The training was declared
complete and all staff were told to
deploy.
Manning and Carmody
decided to stick together. They
had known each other for 20-
plus years, having played rugby
together back in the day. They
had hardly ever worked together
– with Manning based at Lincoln
and Carmody at Arthur’s Pass –
but each knew the other was a
good man for a crisis.
They each retrieved their
rifle, handgun and Taser, put
on ballistic armour, then set off
toward the city in Manning’s car.
As he drove, Carmody monitored
the car radio, hearing reports of
multiple casualties and multiple
offenders at the Al-Noor
Mosque.
Shots were reported at the
hospital, but experience told them
to look elsewhere – Deans Ave
was covered and the offenders
weren’t there; the hospital alert
probably arose from injured
people arriving there.
“I was thinking some poor
New Brighton community cop is
going to be pulling up these guys
BRAVE: Senior Constables Jim Manning and Scott Carmody.
and he’s not going to be armed,”
Manning told police magazine
Ten One.
“We need to go wide because
we need to be where the police
guns aren’t.”
As they drove east on
Brougham St, the radio reported
an offender’s vehicle – a Subaru,
registration number KSH 90 –
heading east on Bealey Ave, on
a parallel course to theirs. There
were reports of a gunman on foot
in Linwood, and shots fired from
a car.
Then there it was – a Subaru,
bullet holes in the windscreen,
hazard lights flashing – coming
through a red light in the
opposite direction.
Manning performed a U-turn.
They had to stop the car, whatever
the cost.
“I was thinking: ‘There’s a good
likelihood we’re going to die’,”
Manning said.
“But I remember looking across
at Scotty and thinking: ‘This guy’s
got it, I’ve got it, we’ve got it, this
is us’.
“It’s like we were heading down
the Valley of Death and my brain
said: ‘Fear’s no good to you, mate.
Turn that off and deal with what’s
in front of you and you’ll stay
alive’.”
Said Carmody: “I think it’s the
way police are wired.
“You have to do something.
PHOTO: NZ POLICE
Doing nothing is much harder
than doing something, even if
the something is not something
you would necessarily choose.”
The Subaru was weaving in and
out of the traffic.
Manning and Carmody closed
on it, certain that at any moment
one of the multiple people they
thought was inside would start
shooting.
Carmody, with his rifle, was
ready to respond.
“I kept telling myself: ‘When
the windscreen shatters, don’t
stop’,” Manning told Ten One.
“Keep driving, Scotty will know
what to do. Whatever happens,
he’ll be there.”
After a few minutes a break in
‘So I reversed my weapon
and struck him with the
butt, with the intention
of rendering him
unconscious’
– Scott Carmody
the traffic exposed the Subaru in
the left-hand lane.
“We’re going in,” said Manning.
He floored the accelerator and
angled the police car into the
Subaru driver’s door, aiming to
incapacitate the driver.
Manning says he had noticed
at crash scenes that when a
vehicle hits another at a certain
angle, the airbag does not deploy.
He now put that to the test,
hoping to give Carmody a clean
exit. It worked.
Carmody, who has long
experience of Protection Services
work and has trained in exiting a
moving vehicle, was out of the car
before it had stopped. He circled
the offender’s vehicle and was
surprised to find it contained just
the driver.
Manning got out, Glock in
hand, into what he thought
would be a firefight. But when
he saw Carmody with his rifle
trained on the driver, he realised
there must be only one offender
present.
There were firearms in the
vehicle – they had been across
the driver’s lap, ready for use,
until the impact dislodged them.
However, they were still within
his reach. He also had a longbladed
knife attached to his vest.
Carmody called for Manning
to enter the vehicle from behind
and handcuff the driver with his
hands up. Manning went around
and opened the hatchback and
saw what appeared to be four
improvised incendiary devices –
petrol cans with objects taped to
them.

• From page 7
They had to get the driver out
without delay, fearing he might
be able to remotely detonate
the devices. They removed the
firearms from the vehicle then
Manning reached in and grabbed
the driver.
“I remember thinking: ‘When
he blows up this is going to really,
really hurt’,” he says.
No one blew up. Manning
dragged the driver out, depositing
him on his back on the footpath.
“He was squirming a wee bit,”
says Carmody.
He considered shooting him
because of the potential threat but
there was the risk of a ricochet
hitting Manning.
“So I reversed my weapon and
struck him with the butt, with
the intention of rendering him
unconscious.”
The offender went limp, allowing
Manning and Carmody to
turn him over, handcuff him and
drag him away from the vehicle.
Over the next few minutes they
both spoke with the offender,
seeking information to relay to
emergency comms.
The man said there were five,
nine or 10 military or policetrained
gunmen carrying out
co-ordinated attacks on Muslim
targets in Christchurch and
nationwide, and 50 around the
world.
With more police arriving,
the car was cordoned. Carmody
remained there, helping keep
people away and evacuate nearby
homes, while Manning and another
officer took the offender to
Christchurch Central.
Manning went on to the District
Command Centre to brief District
Commander Superintendent John
Price and his team. He returned to
the cordon, which was still on alert
for other terrorists.
Later they briefed the army
bomb disposal team on what was
in the car, and in the evening
briefed the CIB leadership team.
Eventually they stood down,
after a very long day.
In April 2019, then-Commissioner
Mike Bush, supported by
Prince William, presented Manning
and Carmody with Gold
Merit Awards for their bravery.
At that point they were still Officers
A&B, with court-ordered
anonymity, which they later asked
to be removed.
Carmody says they did not
want what appeared to be special
treatment. “None of the victims
had name suppression.
“We wanted to continue to
stand with the victims and their
families and not hide behind
name suppression. If they could
be named, so could we.”
Carmody literally stood with
the victims when the offender
was sentenced in June 2020. In his
Protection Services role he was at
court to help look after the family
members making victim impact

If Manning and Carmody have
any advice to pass on to colleagues,
it’s about trust: Trust your
training, trust your equipment

“Scotty kept us alive,” says Manning.
“The fact that he got out of
that car so quickly… and got to
that corner and had that gun at
the driver’s head before he could
reach across to get his guns is the
reason we’re still alive.”
Carmody says he had huge trust
in Manning.
“I knew he was always going

“I knew wherever we ended up,
he would be there; I knew
he was fully capable of dealing

“It allows people fellowship

Cakes, savouries, tea and coffee

Retail complex to
be largest of kind
in South Island
• From page 1
Colliers retail consultant, Evan Harris
said The Station will be the largest nonenclosed
retail centre in the South Island.
“Large format open centres have become
a lot more popular in the last five years
because of ease of parking as you can park
at the front door of the shops. They are
also destination centres,” he said.
“The Station is well placed to meet the
needs of the Selwyn District, which is
one of the fastest growing districts in the
country. It will also draw people from
the rest of the South Island, as well as
Christchurch.”
Carter said The Station will generate
a lot of vehicles, cyclists and pedestrians
which must be considered by Waka Kotahi
as it seeks feedback on a straight flyover
connection between Rolleston township
and industrial areas.
He said the original skewed option,
previously proposed by Waka Kotahi, provided
a much more accessible overbridge,
caters for growth in traffic to and from
The Station and accommodates a range
of transport options for people of all ages
and abilities.
The Station will provide onsite parking
for 1906 vehicles (including 71 mobility
bays) and 181 cycle parks.
It is expected that The Station will
include a wide variety of retail and
other amenities, including hardware and
building supplies, furniture/homewares,
sportswears, fashion and accessories,
restaurants and cafes.
Carter said the resource consent is
expected to be approved within one to two
months. He said the activities are permitted
by the zoning and resource consent is
only required in respect of minor earthworks,
waste management and access
design matters.
Once resource consent is granted, work
will start in 2023, he said.

AN INITIATIVE to empower
women to join the city’s labour
market has launched in a bid to
counter a Covid-19-based lack
of skilled migrants boosting the
local economy.
ChristchurchNZ, the city
council’s sustainable economic
development agency, developed
PowerUp after Statistics New
Zealand’s household labour force
survey data estimated 20,000
local women could re-enter the
workforce if supplied with the
necessary advice and support.
Designed as an information
hub to connect women with
employment and career
opportunities, PowerUp also
stemmed from a skilled migrant
advocacy paper ChristchurchNZ
and the Canterbury Employers’
Chamber of Commerce
delivered to the Government in
April.
It requested an increase in
skilled migration as the impacts
of an extreme skilled labour
shortage applied the brakes to
Canterbury’s economic growth.
“The campaign was a direct
result of businesses crying out
for more staff and the enormous
untapped potential of attracting
more women into the workforce,”
said ChristchurchNZ
chief executive Ali Adams.
“Our research has shown that
practical adjustments, such as
flexible working arrangements
or meaningful roles, can be
real drivers for women when
choosing employment.”
The campaign runs
until November and will
be followed by contact
with potential employers
to equip them with the
right information to
provide, said Adams, “an
attractive and supportive
workplace”.
PowerUp features
Latest Canterbury news at starnews.co.nz
expert advice from career
coach Claire French and
information
on regional
support agencies,
networks and

There’s
templates for
cover letters and
CVs plus videos
of four women
sharing their
new career journeys.

trustworthy resources are
preventing many women from
taking the next step in their
career journey.
“I think as females we are
tough on ourselves and that
makes job hunting hard. But
now I know I can rise above
that. We are stronger and braver
than we think and know way
more than what we think. So just
believe in yourself. If you can’t
believe in yourself, then how can
anyone else?” she said.
Events will also be a key
component of the campaign as
ChristchurchNZ plans forums to
inform women on high-demand
sectors, such as tech, and
facilitates networking with other
women, employers and support
agencies.
ChristchurchNZ marketing
manager business, Kylie Yardley
added a women in tech seminar
was being planned, and an event
designed to ensure members of
ethnic communities were workready
was also on the drawing
board.

A TRAPPING project on
Kaitōrete Spit is helping
reduce the number of animal
pests across 5000 hectares of
biodiversity-rich land.
Representatives from 14 agencies,
organisations and rūnanga
that established Pest Free Banks
Peninsula (PFBP) recently spent
a day on the spit – the stretch of
land that separates Te Waihora /
Lake Ellesmere from the Pacific
Ocean – to see the progress being
made on the current focus
area.
The project is part of a wider
aim to eliminate pests from the
entire Peninsula by 2050. The
shorter-term objective is to better
manage key threats such as
possums across 28,000 hectares
in The Wildside and to eliminate
mustelids (ferrets, stoats and
weasels), feral cats and hedgehogs
from Kaitōrete.
About 230 traps – a mix of
kill traps, Holden traps, and
live capture traps – have been
distributed across the spit.
Hundreds of hedgehogs, 15
feral cats, 20 weasels and five
ferrets have been captured since
the first of the traps were laid in
March.
Technology is a key part of
the project’s efficiency. When a
pest is caught, a node on top of
the trap reports back to a ‘hub’,
alerting the field staff. This
minimises the amount of time
that staff need to spend checking
the traps.
Some $10.11 million in funding
has been allocated to the
wider PFBP programme over
five years. Half of that has come
from Predator Free 2050 Ltd,
and Environment Canterbury
contributes $600,000 annually.
Other key contributors include
Christchurch City Council,
Selwyn District Council, Department
of Conservation, Rod
Donald Banks Peninsula Trust,
Summit Road Society, and the
Banks Peninsula Conservation
Latest Canterbury news at starnews.co.nz
Trust, which administers PFBP.
PFBP project
manager Sarah
Wilson says in
the scheme of
things, the team
is just getting
started.
“It’s taken us
a wee while to
train the staff,
get the equipment, and get the
knowledge about how to move
forward, but now we’re really
beginning to shift gear.”
Wilson says that while
Kaitōrete is probably a
little-known area for many
Cantabrians, it’s very important
in terms of its insect life. The spit
provides habitat for more than
100 species of moths – including
five that are flightless – plus
various beetles, lizards and birds,
and the katipō spider.
“From a pest control
perspective, it’s sort of a coalition
of opportunity. The shape of
the land makes it easy to work
on, and then you’ve got this
biodiversity that is possible to
renew here.”
PFBP works closely with Te
Rūnanga o Ngāi Tahu and the

five Papatipu Rūnanga who
whakapapa to the Peninsula.
They’re on PFBP’s governance
board and are involved with
all operations, including
trapping.
As PFBP project oversight
group chair Mark Christensen
points out, the trapping work is
just one aspect of the long-term
ecological vision for Banks
Peninsula.
“The vision has eight
interrelated goals – one of those
is about being pest-free. The
other seven are also around
bringing back indigenous
biodiversity – whether it’s
vegetation or birds. The whole
idea of the pest free vision is to
reduce that pest pressure so that
we can restore the biodiversity,
which in turn, will also help our
economy to flourish.”
PFBP project management
group chair David Miller was
among those who attended the
recent site visit, and enjoyed
getting an up-close look at
the “interesting and novel”
technology.
“The scale of what we’re
attempting is very impressive –
especially given the fact we have
limited resources tied to specific
target species. But we have
fantastic field staff and every
reason to be hopeful, given what
they’ve been able to achieve
so far.”

Young Lego masters excited to be at show
PIECE AFTER piece, hour after
hour, Ladbrooks School pupils
Henry Sculding, Benji Mosley
and Olivia Fryer have chipped
away to build a show-stopping
dragon exhibition ahead of this
year’s Christchurch Brick Show.
The trio – all aged 10 – began
playing with Duplo before
they could walk. This year they
received a gifted learners award
from the Ministry of Education,
providing enough funds to
build their display for this year’s
event.
Using more than 5000 Lego
pieces, they’ve realised their vision
of a tropical island under attack
by dragons. The project has
taken around two months to put
together, with weekly meet-ups
keeping them on track.
“We like to be challenged, to
have a problem that we can solve
with research and by working
together,” Olivia said.
This year the Christchurch
Brick Show is celebrating its
10 th anniversary. It will be held
at Christchurch Arena on
Saturday and Sunday. Oliva,
Benji and Henry are among
more than 250 exhibitors set to
take part.
When deciding on a topic for
their exhibition, dragons were
the obvious choice.
“You can make a good
story with dragons,” says Olivia,
whose specialty includes “free
building” and working on finer
details.
All three are from “Legoobsessed”
families. For Benji,
“doing building challenges”
with his mother and father is a
favourite pastime.
Henry says his father, Simon,
is his main inspiration.
“He’s been building Lego since
I was born.”
In addition to their work on
the project, Benji, Olivia and
Henry run a Lego club at school.
It’s given them the opportunity
to share their passion with other
students.
This term pupils have made
mosaics using Lego dots. Their
pieces will also be on display at
the show this weekend.
Olivia says she’s looking
forward to being amongst other
lego enthusiasts.
“We’re excited to be there and
see other people’s creations. The
quality at the Christchurch Brick
Show is very high.”

Zach on fast track to karting success
• By Chris Barclay
THERE ARE untold twists
and turns to come when an
aspiring motorsport star is just
11 years-old, though Prebbleton’s
Zach Tucker is confidently
approaching a fast track to
success.
Zach will represent New
Zealand at the annual ROK Cup
Superfinal in October, where he
will emulate the likes of formula
1 champions Lewis Hamilton
and Sebastian Vettel by racing at
Italy’s spiritual home of karting.
The Medbury School year 7
student, who started racing as a
six-year-old, learned last Monday
he can start doing homework on
one of Europe’s highly rated circuits
for future F1 drivers, South
Garda Karting.
Zach earned the right to represent
New Zealand by defending
his Vortex Mini ROK national
title against 28 rivals over a fourrace
schedule in Wellington last
month.
“It will be an amazing experience,
it’ll be quite something and
quite frightening I imagine,” said
Zach’s mother, Missie Tucker.
Zach is supplied with a kart
and engine for the four days of
racing while KartSportNZ covers
the entry fee and contributes towards
travel and food expenses.
However, Tucker said about
20,000 Euro ($33,000) was
SUPERCARS DREAM: Junior karting star Zach Tucker hopes to eventually race Supercars in
Australia.
required to boost Zach’s campaign,
by accessing factory team
mechanics and technology.
“For the actual main race we’re
going to have to pay to be part
of a team to give Zach the best
chance, apparently that’s what
most people do,” she said.
Zach, who won the 2021
Vortex Mini ROK crown at the
familiar surrounds of the Kart
Sport Canterbury Race Track,
preparations for Italy includes
overseas experience in Australia,
where he will compete in the
City of Melbourne Titles on
August 6-7.
Coached by Matthew Hamilton
of WKS Kartstore, Zach’s
next assignment is driving for
Medbury in the national schools’
championships in Invercargill on
Friday and Saturday.
Zach, who also plays rugby
and basketball, goals for next
year are winning a third straight
Vortex Mini ROK title, race in
Italy again and then step up in
class to Junior Rotax karting.
Although South Garda Karting,
situated near Lonato del
Garda between Venice and
Milan, is considered a breeding
ground for the next generation of
F1 drivers, long-term it is not the
pinnacle for Zach.
“I would like to be a Supercars
driver like Shane Van Gisbergen,”
he said.
However, for now Zach, who
turns 12 in December, is content
to master karting, a pursuit
which succeeded an interest in
dirt bikes.
“I really wanted to have a go at
karting. I love the competition
and challenge of trying to be
perfect every lap. I love mixed
grid racing,” he said.
Zach has justified the switch
with a string of schools, South
Island and national titles, including
the Goldstar Series trophy
previously won by leading New
Zealand motorsport drivers
Scott Dixon and Scott McLaughlin.
Hamilton was confident Zach
had the tools and drive to go far.
“In a short time he has proven
himself time and time again and
if not for disruptions (in 2020)
due to Covid I firmly believe he
would already be a three-time
New Zealand champion,” he
said.
“I coached Marcus Armstrong
(Ferrari Driver Academy
member and current formula
2 driver). He won his first title
when he was the same age as
Zach and I have no doubt Zach
has what it takes to succeed.
Over the past three seasons he
has been almost unbeatable.”

A venue for every occasion
In Selwyn, we’re fortunate to have
a great range of venues suitable for
hosting corporate events, functions and
workshops. From old heritage style halls
to modern community centres, there are
plenty of options.
For character and modern practicality
the Lakeside Memorial Hall and
Dunsandel Community Centre were
both winners in the 2019 Canterbury
Architecture Awards. The Lakeside
Soldiers Memorial Hall, built in 2018 to
replace the former earthquake-damaged
hall, retains original features from its
1917 predecessor such as the fireplace
and an open sky courtyard at the heart of
the building which is paved with bricks
recovered from the original hall.
The Dunsandel Community Centre
combines award-winning architecture
with a flexible modern space featuring
smaller meeting rooms and larger venue
spaces that can open up into one big
space catering for up to 200 people.
Directly in front of the Darfield
Domain, lies the Darfield Community
and Recreation Centre. This double
storey building has seven bookable
rooms for all kinds of events. With a
kitchen downstairs and one upstairs,
no matter which room you book, you’ll
be sorted for all your catering needs.
An upstairs meeting room also has
a balcony overlooking the domain
providing a great indoor outdoor flow
for your corporate event.
West Melton Community and
Recreation Centre is the hub of West
Melton (just 15 minutes from the
airport). The building features a full
sized sprung timber sports floor,
suitable for most indoor sports,
functions or events, a carpeted lounge
with a capacity of up to 100 people, a
commercial grade kitchen and smaller
affordable community meeting room
spaces with plenty of parking.
The Rolleston Community Centre
is the perfect place to host corporate
events or meetings. The stadium has
capacity for up to 600 people, but the
Centre also has smaller spaces available
Lincoln Event Centre
for functions. Featuring a well-equipped
kitchen and bar, this multipurpose
venue has onsite parking and is in close
proximity to Rolleston’s new town
centre.
Translated into the unobstructed
trail to the world and beyond, Te
Ara Ātea resembles its meaning
through the many different spaces
and opportunities it offers in the heart
of Rolleston’s town centre. Inside
the building is a modern library, a
tamariki space, a café, historical and
taonga displays and several bookable
spaces for meetings, presentations and
performances.
One of Lincoln’s pride and joys, the
Lincoln Event Centre is a modern, state
of the art venue great for hosting your
corporate events. Several rooms can be
booked, with the venue hosting four
kitchens, portable and inbuilt staging.
Located at Rhodes Park, the modern
Tai Tapu Community Centre built in
2018 has a variety of bookable venue
spaces for a range of group events.
With parking and a kitchen onsite, one
of its key features is two flexible spaces
that can open up into one large space,
catering for a capacity of up to 550
people.

KIMBERLY BUTT might
have upset punters but
she kept her grandfather,
trotting maestro Dick
Prendergast, happy with
her $63 winner The Fiery
Spirit.
A six-year-old with just
six starts to his name, the
trotter made his trek from
Canterbury a winning one
when beating race winners
to break through for a
maiden victory at Wyndham
last week.
“I gave my grandad a
share in him, he had the
granddam Anreca Hest
and the sash on my colours
is inspired by his colours,”
Leeston-based Butt said.
Family played more than
just a role in the ownership
of The Fiery Spirit.
Butt’s fiancé Jonny Cox
was among those who
helped The Fiery Spirit
progress towards the winner’s
circle while Butt was
out of action having her
daughter McKenzie.
“I have to say a big thank
you to Jonny and his dad
John Cox who have been
a huge part of helping me
with the horse while I was
pregnant and since having
McKenzie.”
Butt headed south with
the trotter to avoid a clash
with another of her drives
in Canterbury.
Though she expected
a decent performance,
winning came as a massive
bonus.
“He just came down as a
mate for He’s Santa Excuse
who got into the Winter
Series Final.”
“They have only been
having one maiden trot
in Canterbury lately, so
he has been clashing with
Sassy Star who I have been
driving.”
“So when we had the
other horse coming down
I thought he could be a
mate.”
RACING 27
Long trek rewarded
by win at long odds
“When I worked for Tim
(Butt) he always said a trip
away can be the making of
horses sometimes.”
“We have always thought
a bit of him, hence why we
still have him as a six-yearold
maiden.”
“When they put him in
against the one-win horses
I thought if he was in the
top five maidens I would
be happy.”
Since having her daughter
Butt has started working
for Brent White’s stable
at Ashburton while also
training her own horses
back at Leeston.
And she couldn’t be happier
in her new job.
“I love it there and
Whitey has been very good
to me.”

Waka Kotahi, NZ Transport Agency, has released revised plans for
changes to the highway through Rolleston, which included the
Rolleston Flyover.
They are now proposing a ‘straight’ flyover connection between
Rolleston township and industrial areas, instead of the original
‘skewed’ flyover consulted on last year.
SIX CONCERNS WITH THE PROPOSED STRAIGHT OPTION
1
2
3
4

6
PROPOSED ROLLESTON FLYOVER
DOES NOT MAKE SENSE!
The straight option does not future-proof the transport network
in Rolleston - which is New Zealand’s fastest growing region.
The bridge is too steep and outside recommended guidelines
for cyclists, pedestrian and wheel chair users.
The proposed straight option will create a bottleneck on the
State Highway, they are proposing two lanes instead of four.
The straight option will cause increased traffic congestion and
has less traffic capacity, compared to the skewed option.
The straight option does not deliver people directly to the
growth areas within the industrial zone.
The straight option does not have better environmental
outcomes.
We are encouraging people to let Waka Kotahi know that the ‘straight’ option is short sighted
and will not work and they need to reconsider the original skewed option.

New Springs ward reserve on track
for first stage opening this year
Floodlit sports fields, a new dog park and walking and cycling paths
are expected to be open later this year as part of the new reserve in
the Springs ward.
Construction of the first stage of the reserve on Birchs Road is now
mostly complete, and facilities will open to the public in November,
after grass areas have had time to grow over winter.
This reserve is a $17.2 million, three-stage project to develop a 22
hectare park within the Springs ward, providing recreation space for
a rapidly growing part of the district, says Phil Millar, Major Projects
Property Manager.
“The reserve will be a huge asset for the Springs community and
the wider district,” he says. “It will add much needed space for both
active and passive recreation, easily accessible to both the Lincoln
and Prebbleton communities.
“We’ve worked with local residents over recent years to gather
input into the design of the park – and we’re confident there will be
facilities and spaces here for the whole community to enjoy.”
The first stage will include
three full-size and one
half-size lit playing fields,
wide walking and cycling
paths, and a number of cycle
features such as jumps,
boardwalks and a snake run,
as well as a mini playground,
car parking and toilets.
NOMINATIONS OPEN
FOR LOCAL ELECTIONS
Construction is due to start
this week on the next stage which will include changing rooms,
service connections, pathways, lighting, landscaping and the main
carpark. This stage should be completed by April 2023.
Mr Millar says a special feature of the park will be the large areas of
native planting for people to explore. The bike tracks will be linked to
the existing rail trail cycle network, which runs along Birchs Road.
Nominations for the 2022 local elections open this Friday – and anyone wanting to make a difference
in their community is encouraged to stand.
In Selwyn, elections will be held for the mayor and 10 councillors, along with five members of the
Malvern Community Board.
Nominations are open from Friday until 12 noon on Friday 12 August, says Council’s deputy electoral
officer Stephen Hill.
“This is a chance for passionate local leaders to take a stand,” Mr Hill says. “Local democracy is
vitally important for our community – it’s how we ensure everyone’s voice is heard and we have the
best opportunity for good local decision making.
“As a councillor or community board member, people have a chance to make a tangible difference,
and contribute to decisions that shape how their community will look in the future.
“It’s important we have elected members of different ages, ethnicities and backgrounds so that
our Council represents the diversity of our community – and now’s the time for anyone considering
standing to take that step.”
Nomination forms for mayor, councillors and community board members can be downloaded now
from the Council website at www.selwyn.govt.nz/elections, or picked up from the Council offices or
service centres.
Anyone over the age of 18 can stand for election if they are a New Zealand citizen and on the
electoral roll. Nomination forms must be signed by two people who are enrolled as electors in the
ward or subdivision that the person is nominated for.
Mr Hill says potential candidates should aim to get their nominations completed as early as possible.
“Getting nomination forms in early means we have plenty of time to check that everything is in order
and all the documentation is completed in time.”
A candidate handbook, with detailed information on the election process, nominations and
campaigning rules is also available from the Council or online.
The Council's elections web page will provide a list of candidate nominations, which will be updated
as nominations are confirmed.
The electoral roll for Selwyn - listing those who are enrolled to vote in the district - will be available
for inspection at Council offices and service centres over the next four weeks. To enrol, check or
update enrolment details, residents can go online to vote.nz, call 0800 36 76 56,
email enrol@vote.nz or visit any NZ Postshop.
The local government election is held by postal voting. Voting papers will be posted out to enrolled
voters from 16 September, and voting closes on Saturday 8 October.
Pump track ready to rock at
Prebbleton Domain
Riders of all ages are getting ready to jump into action at the new
pump track in Prebbleton Domain – set to open this month.
Pump tracks are designed to cater for bikes, scooters, roller blades,
skateboards and other non-motorised wheeled objects.
They’re a continuous loop of rollers and banked corners, catering
for a range of skill levels and ages, from toddlers on balance bikes
through to advanced bike riders.
Construction work on the new track has been completed and minor
landscaping is now under way to complete the project.
The pump track was planned to coincide with construction of
overflow carpark development within the domain. The work was
delayed due to COVID-19 but asphalting is now complete.
Share your story of culture
and food
Faces of Selwyn On Air returns for this year’s CultureFest, with the
theme of culture and food – and we’re on the search for participants!
Could you be the next person to share your Selwyn journey? Apply
here: selwyn.govt.nz/shareyourstory
During CultureFest 2022 people can tune in to Plains FM 96.9 to
hear stories from our newest community members, how they came
to settle in Waikirikiri/Selwyn and learn about their culture.
Last year’s Faces of Selwyn participant, Rita Yosef, says she enjoyed
sharing her culture and her language, her favourite recipes and her
experience as a new immigrant.
“The Israeli culture is so different to the New Zealand culture, and
sometimes hard to understand by kiwis. I was very lucky to be able
to talk about the different food customs, holidays and traditions and
get people involved.”
Rita says food is a very important part of culture.
“The food represents the character of the traditions and the holidays,
even the religions in the area. It shows what a big 'melting pot' of
cultures are involved and what amazing interesting flavours and
tastes people can learn and get to know about.”
Faces of Selwyn also gave Rita the opportunity to successfully start
up her own podcast on PlainsFM.

Welcome to
Country charm
close to the city
West Melton has become increasingly
diverse and grown exponentially in recent
years as more people discover its charms.
An easy commute to the city, a vibrant
community and a country lifestyle are
features that make West Melton a great
place to live, work and play.
The shopping centre, with its spacious
parking area, is at the heart of the
township and has everything you need
on a daily basis including supermarket,
physiotherapist, beauty salon,
hair salon, cafes, bakery,
medical centre, pharmacy,
and much more. Plus, the
local school, preschools,
community hall, tavern, fuel
station and churches are all
centrally based too, making
everything within easy
walking distance.
There are plenty of
recreational opportunities
too, with the Wilfield
subdivision nearby offering
delightful walks among the
West Melton
reserve areas, a tennis court, basketball
hoop, and playground. With the rapid
growth of West Melton, the community
has risen to meet the needs of its residents
with a range of interest and sports groups
to take part in, including a New Friends in
the Village group.
If you’re looking for a change of scenery
or a new area to live, then take a drive
to West Melton and check out what the
township has to offer.
GLOBALLY MOTHS can
vary greatly in size from
the giant Hercules moth
(Coscinocera hercules)
with a 27cm wingspan to
the minute moth called
Stigmella ridiculosa with
2mm wingspan.
At the smaller end of the
range Leuroperna sera has
a wingspan of 10mm. This
relatively common species
is very similar to the
diamond back moth but
can be distinguished by
genitalia and wing width.
Leuroperna sera is
thought to be selfintroduced
to New
Zealand, and also found in
Australia, India, Indonesia,
Sri Lanka, Vietnam and
Taiwan.
According to
iNaturalist, it is mainly
found in the North
Island, with the specimen

Welcome to
West Melton
New book from
local children’s
author
West Melton author Alyse Boaz is
about to launch her third children’s book
within a year, Robot Ted Forgets His
Head.
Robot Ted gets into all sorts of trouble
when he loses his head, leaving behind
a trail of disaster. Beautifully written
by Alyse and illustrated by artist and
cartoonist Robert Scanlan, the book
captures the hearts of the old and young
alike. Robot Ted Forgets His Head is a
fun story with illustrations, rhyme and
word repetition to engage children,
helping them learn to read.
Alyse launched her first picture
book, Royal Blue, in August last year.
Her second, Sammy the Rooster, was
published recently in April and now
Robot Ted Forgets His Head is due to
come off the printing press.
“I started writing Robot Ted years
ago,” says Alyse. “I like writing rhyme
though it’s not easy. I’d play around with
the story, then leave it, then one day, I
changed some words, took a beat out
of each line and came up with a good
ending. It was finished!”
She says Royal Blue artist Robert
Scanlan was keen to illustrate Robot Ted
Forgets His Head.
“He surprised me with how quickly
he produced the fantastic illustrations.
He really brought the story to life,” says
Alyse. “Robert also invited the Brighton
Gallery community to add to the artwork
by drawing something or colouring an
illustration.”
To find out more about Alyse’
books, to book school and preschool
visits or to pre-order a copy of Robot
Ted Forgets His Head, visit: www.

Last day to have your say
on the Rolleston flyover
How will the flyover affect you or the
businesses you visit in the Izone area?
Feedback for the revised flyover plan
is currently being sought. The latest plan
offers a more direct connection between
Rolleston township and industrial
areas with a simpler transport network
(instead of the ‘skewed’ flyover consulted
on last year).
Selwyn mayor Sam Broughton says
the new plan offers people more travel
choices and will provide better travel
options, keep our people safe and help
our district’s economy grow.
However, a growing number of
businesses in the Izone area are
concerned about lack of individual
consultation with businesses, traffic
congestion, business accessibility, and
disruption during the construction
period.
The last day to have your say is 5pm
Friday 22 July 2022
A final public information event
on the proposed Rolleston transport
improvements will be Sunday July 17,

GARDENING 39
Plenty to be done – prune, spray, mulch
OFTEN THE coldest days of
winter occur in July, so it is
not the easiest of months for
gardening.
However, there are many tasks
requiring attention – pruning,
mulching, and spraying, so take
advantage of those fine days
when you get them.
Houseplant care
Pay close attention to your
houseplants observing how they
are growing in the colder winter
months, remembering that many
of our houseplants come from
very warm, tropical countries.
Move them closer to windows
for more light and warmth if
needed, but not in the direct
path of heat-pumps or drafts.
Water only as required, rather
than on a regular, scheduled
basis.
Planning on rainy days
Use rainy days or downtime
planning your summer garden.
For instance, think about expanding
your vege garden to provide
even more crops for your family
(container gardening is a great
way to utilise space too).
Read new season seed or
plant catalogues to find new and
interesting varieties to grow for
spring and summer. Be sure to
get your orders in early.

Compost
July is a great time to tick off tasks such as sharpening
tools, mower blades, cleaning the garden shed, and
planning for your spring planting. Organic compost and
a good layer of mulch can be added to your garden
beds to protect them from the cold winter conditions.
If planting winter veggies, make sure you use a quality
Veggie Mix and ensure you have some frost cloth on
hand! Another great option for winter growing is a
Vegepod. Check these out on our website.

pruning roses, bush, standard
and climbing. Ensure your secateurs
are sharp and give them
a clean with methylated spirits
before you begin.
With bush and standard roses,
reduce the amount of main
‘leaders’ or branches. Remove all
inward growing branches and
prune to an outward facing bud.
With climbing roses tie down
main leaders as horizontal as
possible. It is the growth from
these leaders that will produce
flowers. When planting newly
purchased roses prepare the site
thoroughly with fresh compost,
the new roses will be in the same
position for a long time so give
them the best start.
Ornamental trees and
shrubs
Garden centres are packed
with new trees and shrubs in
July. Always be careful when
selecting new specimens for
your garden. Choose the very
best plants you can find as they
will be with you for many years.
Inspect plants thoroughly and
purchase healthy, undamaged,
pest and disease-free varieties.
Add plenty of compost at planting
time.
Fruit trees
Complete pruning of all deciduous
fruit trees and follow up
with a spray of a copper compound
to help prevent reinfection
of fungal diseases in spring.
Mandarins, navel oranges,
lemons and limes can now be
harvested.
It’s time to plant out new fruit
trees. Always try and select a
warm, sheltered, sunny position.
Fruit trees only flower once
a year and in a windy position,
flowers can be blown off the tree.
The end result is the fruit will
not set, which means no crops!
Again, add in plenty of compost
went planting, and stake young
trees if required.
Paths, decks, and
driveways
It is in the wet, cold months of
winter that slippery driveways
and paths become an issue.
Water blasting not only cleans
the surface but makes it that
much safer when walking to
carry out all the many tasks
required in a garden. Also cut
back overhanging branches or
shrubs that may be blocking
access to paths or the sun.

40 Selwyn Times Wednesday July 13 2022
Get the most out of your tank of fuel
EVEN AMIDST a relentless tidal
surge of sport utility vehicles, I’m
pleased to report there is still room
in our market for the traditional
small hatchback.
What’s more, you don’t have to
pay a lot of money for it, Suzuki
has been doing it well for as long as
I can remember with the Swift, and
Toyota’s Yaris and Honda’s Jazz are
all still around.
The latter have slowly crept up
in price over the years and now
the company accountants for
those brands must be looking at
sharpening their pencils for there’s
a new benchmark for buyers who
are wanting into that part of the
market.
Enter the MG3, a 1.5-litre fivedoor
that epitomises everything
small hatchbacks represent. It lands
here in base-model form at $19,490
as tested. It is labelled Core, if you
spend an extra $2k, that will buy
you into the Excite. What’s more,
these prices are driveaway, on road
costs are included, there’s also the
inclusion of a seven-year warranty,
roadside assistance and warrant of
fitness checks.
To me that is great value, and it’s
easy to see why MG is making a
mark in Christchurch, there are a
lot of them around and the range is
quite vast along with a wide variety
of colours. The evaluation car was
SQUAT: The MG3 imparts a sporty look.
painted a vivid red and it received
favourable comment.
MG is a company that needs little
introduction; sure, it has lost most
of its old English heritage, but the
Shanghai Automotive Industry
Corporation, the Chinese company
that now owns the brand, has been
loyal to MG’s past, the product is
well built and exciting, which I
guess is why the name Excite is part
of the MG3’s image.
The MG3 is short at just under
4m, but it has a cheeky look and its
squat rear end promotes a sporty
appearance.
It is also well equipped for its
price. Major items include central
display screen, digitally controlled
air conditioning, cruise control,
electric windows all round, electric
mirror adjustment and trip
computer. For safety there’s a host
of kit including stability control,
corner brake control, emergency
brake assist, reversing camera, no
fewer than six air bags and ISOFIX
child seat mounts.
That’s not a bad package for a
car around $20k and one which
will win favour amongst those who
want a small hatchback but have a
limited budget.
The fabric-trimmed Core
specification model would be the
one I want, the Excite will give you
quasi leather, bigger wheels and a
few other goodies, but I like base
MG3 CORE: At $19,490 it is a bargain price for a new car.
specification models and the Core
really wants for little.
Under the bonnet sits a 1498cc,
four-cylinder petrol engine. There
are no surprises here but for the
fact it is quiet and well-engineered
for performance and fuel thrift.
MG claims power outputs of
82kW and 150Nm. They are
realised a little towards the top end
at 6000rpm and 4500rpm, but that
means it is a happy engine that
will work freely through the rev
band, and given the total weight of
the car is still well under 1-tonne
then the strength of the engine
low down isn’t significant. The
MG3 will accelerate to 100km/h
in 11.5sec, and if you are held up
by a slower car on the highway, it
will complete an overtake in 8.2sec
(80-120km/h).
More important, is the fuel usage
equation, MG claims a combined
cycle average of 6.7-litres per
100km. During a week in my care
the MG3 returned some thrifty fuel
usage figures such as a 7.8l/100km
combined cycle average along with
a 5.1l/100km figure sitting at a
100km/h cruise.
Drive is transferred to the front
wheels through a four-speed
automatic transmission. It’s fair to
say that even with just four gears
it is a sweet shifting gearbox and
the ratios are well structured to
extract maximum energy from the
• Price – MG3 Core, $19,490
• Dimensions – Length,
4055mm; width, 1729mm;
height, 1504mm
• Configuration – Fourcylinder,
front-wheeldrive,
1498cc, 82kW,
150Nm, four-speed
automatic
• Performance –
0-100km/h, 11.5sec
• Fuel usage – 6.7l/100km
engine. Top gear moderates engine
speed quite nicely, the engine ticks
over freely but not too quickly at
open road speed, the rev counter
pointing to 2500rpm at 100km/h.
It must be said, too, the MG3
travels at open road speed quietly.
There are few wind gushes, and
sound off the 15in tyres is kept
to a minimum – soundproofing
throughout the vehicle is in
abundance.
One of the advantages of high
profile tyres is the associated
ride quality and that is spread
throughout the interior. Even
though the rear suspension is a
simplistic tube/torsion beam
type, there is smooth absorption,
bumps and lumps are arrested well
even though the rear spring and
damper rates are a little on the firm
side.
I took the evaluation car on my
normal highway run west towards
the alps. It covers ground without
fuss, a strong nor’wester was
blowing as I headed towards inland
and was buffeting the side of the
car but it felt stable and tight on the
road, corrections to the steering
were only marginal.
There are a couple of inland
corners I really like, so I pointed
the MG3 at them quite quickly
and the first impressions of
turn-in are that of accuracy and
composure.
Driving the wee MG3 is relaxing
and somewhat rewarding, I was
somewhat reluctant to take it back
to the dealership, as a driver you
very quickly become one with
the car. If you take into account
the original outlay you get good
value motoring and transport
which won’t tax the wallet at fill-up
time, and if you are worried about
ballooning fuel prices, the MG3
performs happily on 91 octane.
An acquaintance of mine is an
MG aficionado, there are several
in his driveway amidst a raft of
other English classics. For as
long as I have known him he has
driven nothing else other than
English cars – up until now, I
see an MG3 has pride of place in
the driveway, that must be some
recommendation for the modern
age of MG.

• If you are heading north and miss
Walkers/Dunns Crossing Road
intersection the the next turn into
Rolleston/Izone is Weedon’s Road
interchange, where you will need to
back track to get to where you are
going.
• If you are heading north from
Rolleston (to Christchurch) you
either take Walkers/Dunns Crossing
Road intersection, Weedon’s Road
interchange or come over the flyover
from Rolleston Drive to Jones Road
take a right at the lights on Jones
Road, right at Hoskyns Road and
go over the Hoskyns railway line to
a left free turn into already flowing
traffic from State Highway 1.
• If you are heading south
to Rolleston you can take th
Weedon’s Road interchange, take
a left at Tennyson Drive, or a left at
Rollestone Drive South.
• This layout limits access into and
out of Rolleston pushing most
of the traffic to Izone which in
unnecessary.

What those affected have to say..
drummond & etheridge Branch
Manager Murray Chesterman says,
“As a business, we are concerned. The
proposed four lanes on Jones Rd outside
our door will have an impact on how
customers can access our business;
the issue of accessibility needs to be
discussed further. In the current plan,
we may not be able to exit our site onto
Jones Road. Another serious concern
is the safety issue with large truck and
trailer units turning into our business
across a proposed cycleway. With new
big box retail also coming to the area, it is
important that the connectivity between
Rolleston and Izone is done right. The
current proposition includes numerous
sets of lights close together, and this will
likely add to congestion and doesn’t fully
future-proof Rolleston. Another challenge
for wider discussion is the motorway is
proposed to remain one lane both north
and south through Rolleston”.
diesel fix owner Phil says, “Traffic
flow will be impacted; it all depends
on where and how traffic will be
redirected, but it’s horrendous at
peak times anyway. We have all
dealt with never-ending road works
over the last five years. It needs to
be sorted sooner rather than later,
especially at the rate Rolleston and
the Izone are growing. We are quite
specialised so customers who need
to come to us, still will and eventually
it will create more traffic flow so it
may benefit the businesses on Jones
Road. I haven’t heard a thing from
New Zealand Transport; however, I
feel they have listened and have gone
back and changed the plans after
businesses on Jones Road protested.
They will never keep everyone happy.
However, I do feel for the businesses
in direct line to where the overpass is
proposed to be going.”
Rolleston diesel & Petrol owner Simon Wilson says,
“Are Rolleston people going to benefit from it? They’ve
got to sort out the motorway flow problem and go from
there. They need to look around the surrounding areas,
as fixing one problem can actually create a problem in
other places. It is a Band-Aid fix and is not looking ahead.
All the agencies like the council, NZTA and Railways
need to plan the work together and also talk with the
community. Planning and communication with everyone
is lacking, and no agency has come to talk with me. I
don’t think the video is clear about what is going on.”
gayle’s foodbar owner Gayle says, “All proposals are
going to affect us. They need to realise how difficult it will
be to get back, and by closing off these entranceways
and exits, it is forcing you to go further afield, which will
not help with the amount of traffic down Jones Road. I
don’t feel it is addressing all the problems that have been
created. Getting in and out of Rolleston is a problem with a
single lane and needs to be double lanes. There are things
that haven’t been fully thought out. They are not going to
come all the way over here to my shop if it takes them 15-
20 minutes to get back to where they’ve come from.”

thoughts have already turned to their next project. Spacious open plan kitchen/dining/living spaces are

Should you sell
your house in
winter?
Selling a property in winter may seem to go against received wisdom,
but there are plenty of reasons why it can be a good idea.
It’s hard to ignore powerful or compelling
reasons like a change in your work, financial
or family circumstances, or because the
timing seems right. In addition, there are
several other, more tangible upsides to
selling in winter.
Firstly, there are often fewer houses on
the market so there’s less competition. Your
property is less likely to be lost in a swarm
of listings and it will be easy to make it stand
out. People who are looking to buy at this
time of year are usually highly motivated
because they need a home sooner rather
than later. The upside of this is that you
may get fewer ‘tyre-kickers’ than in the
warmer months – and increased demand
will often result in higher prices.
If you’re selling your property with a
real estate agent, you need to mine their
experience. When you’re choosing an
agent, ask them how houses in your area
sell over the colder months. It’s in their
interests to make sure the sale of your
property is as advantageous as possible;
if they think you’ll be better off waiting
a couple of months, they should tell you.
They should also work with you to work
out the best times to hold open homes
or viewings, taking in account shorter
sunlight hours.
You want your property to look attractive,
inviting and easy to look after – and there
are plenty of practical steps you can take to
make it seem an attractive proposition on a
cold winter’s day. Now’s the time to fix any
leaks, cracked windows or sticking doors
or broken drains. All the usual rules for
preparing a home for sale will apply - your
buzzwords should be decluttering and
deep-cleaning. If it has good insulation
and an efficient heating system, make sure
these factors are included in any marketing.
Ensure the house is warm and dry during
any viewings.
Don’t forget that people will want to
look around the outdoor areas too -
sweep or waterblast paths, mulch garden
beds and clear gutters. If your garden is
picture-perfect in summer and spring,
consider making some photos available so
prospective buyers can see what they’ve got
to look forward to. A few colourful plants
in pots will also help brighten outdoor
spaces and a new letterbox or freshly
painted front fence or gate will do wonders
for your property’s street appeal.
Prepare well and there’s no reason why
you can’t successfully sell your property
before the weather warms up. Sell now and
you’ll hopefully have lots of properties to
choose from when you start scanning the
market in spring.

What do you have to tell potential
buyers when selling your house?
When you’ve lived in a property for a
while it’s easy to forget some of its quirks.
You might be used to the fact that the
front gate doesn’t shut properly, or that
the bathroom windows need fixing. Any
potential buyers will be able to spot issues
like this when they inspect the property –
and can choose to fix them if they purchase
it. But it’s a lot harder for them to identify
other things you might have forgotten
about, like the fact that you didn’t bother
getting the appropriate consents from the
council when you built the deck 25 years
ago.
You might think the deck is fine, but you
need to front up about the consent issue,
not least because it’s the decent thing to do.
“When you’re selling a property you are
legally obliged to share all the relevant
information about it,” says the Real Estate
Agents Authority (REAA).
“If work has been done on the property
during your ownership, either by you or
someone else, the standard terms of the
sale and purchase agreement require the
seller to warrant that any legally required
permits or consents were obtained. If you
knowingly fail to disclose unconsented
works, you are in breach of contract. This
means there is a risk that the sale could fall
over or that you could run into problems
prior to settlement. Even worse, the buyer
could take you to court for breach of
warranty.”
Your first step should be to discuss the
issue with your licensed real estate agent
and your lawyer. They are likely to advise
that you are better off to disclose anything
unconsented, or to strike out the applicable
vendor warranties clause in the sale and
purchase agreement.
“Once the real estate agent is aware of the
situation, they are bound by their Code of
Conduct to disclose it to any prospective
buyers. If you tell them about the deck or
any other issues to do with the property,
but ask them not to tell anyone, they are
required to stop working for you.”
Similar disclosure issues can arise over
more sensitive matters. Some sellers worry
about whether or not to tell an agent or
prospective buyers about an issue that
doesn’t relate to the physical state of the
property – such as it being the scene of a
murder, suicide or violent crime.
Here, deciding what to disclose is less
straightforward.
“The REAA advises agents to take a
cautious approach and to consider each
situation on its facts, while recognising the
individual circumstances.”
The High Court has said that a more
recent event, especially one that might
have gained some notoriety in the local
neighbourhood, may have more bearing on
a prospective buyer’s view of the property
than a historic one. The location of the
event (whether it took place in the grounds
of the property or inside the house) and
whether the property has been lived in since
it happened, as well as the likely reaction
of potential buyers, should also be taken
into account. The death of someone from
natural causes at the property does not
need to be disclosed, as this is considered
an everyday occurrence.
“If you are in this situation as a seller, it’s
best to discuss what to do with your real
estate agent.”
“They cannot tell prospective buyers
without your consent – and if they decide
that a sensitive issue should be disclosed
but you don’t agree, then they must cease
to act for you.”
Whatever the situation, whether it’s
unconsented work or a tragic event, honesty
is the best policy. Talk to your agent about
how the disclosure will be handled. There
is no need to advertise the information
or tell everyone who wanders along to an
open home, but potential buyers who have
indicated an interest in making an offer
must be told.

How to stay warm and dry
Kiwi homes contain hidden health
dangers. Yet first aid for unhealthy
homes needn’t cost a fortune. It can
make a home more saleable as well as a
healthier place to live.
Many older homes are cold and damp
and sometimes have other hazards such
as lead-based paint and asbestos.
There are a number of steps to take to
make your home more healthy.
They include behavioural change,
the cheapest way to make your home
healthier is to open windows to ventilate.
If you’re out a lot, but want to increase
natural ventilation buy some security
window stays or locks that allow you to
leave windows slightly open when you’re
out. This can be a lot cheaper to buy and
run than high-tech systems.
If nothing else, insulate the ceiling and
under the house. The Energy Efficiency
and Conservation Authority (EECA) has
information on its website about funding
grants available through the Warm Up
New Zealand campaign.
By 1 July 2019 all rental properties
must have ceiling and underfloor
insulation Ventilation systems move
moisture from the air making the home
healthier and feel warmer.
Adding a sheet of heavy polythene
beneath a home can provide an efficient
moisture barrier beneath piled homes.
A heat pump will warm and ventilate
rooms in the winter and cool them in the
summer. Watch out for hard sell in this
market though and shop around before
buying heating or ventilation systems.
EECA suggests a number of different
options for secondary glazing, which is
cheaper than retrofitting double glazing.
Alternatives include DIY window
insulation, aluminium framed secondary
glazing on the inside of the existing
glazing, or acrylic sheets attached
internally.
The latest technology is Low-E films,
which are stuck to existing windows.
This can reduce heat loss by 42 per cent
says Chris Olson, general manager of
ThermafilmNZ.
Healthy homes aren’t just about
insulation and moisture removal.
Using fewer toxic chemicals can make
your home healthier to live in. Parents of
young children sometimes worry about
exposure to chemicals as do asthma
sufferers. As a result some buyers will
also be impressed.
Dust mites can make a home
unhealthy to live in. Use a hepa filter on
your vacuum cleaner or at least vacuum
more often and empty the bag between
cleans.
Decluttering as well reduces the places
that dust can build up.
Mould spores can be very bad for your
lungs. If mould builds up anywhere
in your house clean it off as soon as
possible. If this is an ongoing problem
consider ways to reduce the humidity.
If your home was built before the 1980s
watch out for lead paint and asbestos.
Both should be removed by an expert.
