Wednesday August 16 2023 Bay Harbour News HAVE YOUR SAY: What do you think of the cruise ship issue and Davidson’s view? Email your responses in 200 words or less to barry@starmedia.kiwi OPINION 9 Lyttelton ‘at war’ over cruise ships? Te Pātaka o Rākaihautū Banks Peninsula Community Board member Reuben Davidson gives his viewpoint on the cruise ship issue in Lyttelton IF YOU HAD been paying attention to early morning media lately you could be forgiven for thinking Lyttelton was a community at war, split 50/50 between those who love cruise ships and those who don’t. If you’d been relying on social media, you might even believe there was a high-level political conspiracy at a hyper local level. I don’t think either are true. As someone who attended the recent public meeting about the return of cruise ships to Lyttelton I saw a very well facilitated evening, with a welcoming environment that allowed anyone who wanted to share their concerns and solutions. Lyttelton is good at Town Hall meetings. The community always turn up, always have their say, and never shy from challenging the relevant authorities or decision-makers. There are usually some loud voices and some loud laughs. Exactly as it should be. There was good representation from city council, regional council (Environment Canterbury), community board, Lyttelton Port Company, and ChristchurchNZ. One conspicuous and disappointing absence was the NZ Cruise Association, which was noted, loudly. I heard a near unanimous verdict from the community. The recent cruise season didn’t work for Lyttelton. This matched the multiple public forums that were bought to the community board earlier in the year and the more recent concerns that were presented by local businesses. At the core, I see there are two issues. The immediate local impact, and the wider environmental impact. It’s helpful to deal with these issues separately. I think it’s important not to conflate them, because in doing so, we could think both are addressed by solving one. The local issue is the disruption to Lyttelton. Overcrowded buses and ferries, inadequate public toilets, small businesses being filled with lower spend clientele, the day-to-day rhythm of a small port town being disrupted and the risk that its special character is lost, maybe forever. There are solutions to all these UPSET: Residents gathered at The Loons to express their concerns over cruise ships docking in Lyttelton. issues. The right agencies and governance bodies have heard them, now we need to work together to address them before the next season. It’s the right thing for locals and for visitors. Solutions could look like – bus transfers direct from the cruise terminal, paid resourcing of the local information centre and staff, stronger representation for local business owners. The global issue is the wider environmental impact of cruise ships, in their current mode. The destination management plan currently being completed for Banks Peninsula received a reset after a resounding mandate from the community. Our local environment, community and business groups are all calling for a sustainable and regenerative PHOTO: JOHN SPURDLE tourism future. The consistent message has been, cruise in its current format will not deliver that. I believe the way forward is to work with Central Government for greater monitoring and regulation of the cruise industry. The future can’t look like last season. So, rather than a Port in a storm I’d suggest Lyttelton is a community with an opportunity to retain its character, shape its future, and protect its environment. I urge you to stay involved. Contact your local elected representatives. Get involved in shaping the destination management plan. Write to the ministers of tourism, environment, and climate change. Make your voice heard.
