The Loons Road to Recovery Update: Lyttelton Working Mens Club

While it is disheartening to see the collection of vacant sites around Lyttelton, there is an optimistic

spirit emerging that knows the tide is turning. Rising from the rubble, the last remaining heritage

buildings are slowly but surely undergoing repairs to make a strong comeback. From the outside it is

difficult to appreciate the progress being made, but this week the Lyttelton Harbour Review team had

the privilege of visiting The Loons building on Canterbury Street, and this coming weekend you too can

view the progress being made at the Lyttelton Workings Mens Club:

The Loons Open Day: Saturday 15 June, 1.00pm All welcome to come and view the progress being made on the building.

Meet at 1.00pm behind the Lyttelton Library on Canterbury Street to be taken through.

Originally built in 1909, the club originated after the second world war and the building was given by

the Watersiders Social Club to the Lyttelton Working Mens Club during the 1951 waterfront lockout,

when the assets of the union were being seized by the government. The Lyttelton Workings Mens Club

has looked after the building ever since. The Loons name came about in the 1930's when the building

was Loons Garage but the origin of the name was lost until recently when it was rediscovered in an old

photo. It is remarkable that having been built more than 100 years ago, the building is still standing

strong after all the seismic activity, and to state that the Lyttelton Working Mens Club are

“undertaking repairs“ to the old building, is somewhat of an understatement.

In all respects the restoration and renovation project for the building would have daunted even the

most experienced of project managers. Yet here we see a collective of dedicated Lyttelton Working

Mens Club members literally rolling up their sleeves and getting stuck into working through the

restoration process. It is nothing short of remarkable. And what is it that keeps this team of dedicated

volunteers and club members going - the satisfaction of knowing a significant piece of Lyttelton’s

history will be saved, and that Lyttelton residents will again have the enjoyment of a first class hall,

gathering space, garden bar, entertainment venue and so much more. Here is a project that will return

a community facility for every ones benefit.

But with large projects, come even larger budgets. The Lyttelton Working Mens Club are grateful to

have received generous grants from the Mayoral Fund; the Christchurch Earthquake Appeal Trust; the

Canterbury Community Trust; the Todd Foundation; the Council Heritage Incentive Fund; the

donations of building materials; the discounts offered on supplies; and the donations from members

of the community. In addition, the Lyttelton Working Mens Club would like to acknowledge the

contributions from Lyttelton Builders Limited, Orbit Architecture, Structex Structural Engineers and

Lyttelton Engineering for getting behind this project and supporting the clubs vision thus far.

Insurance funds have been sufficient to cover the cost of earthquake repairs, but do not cover the cost

of earthquake strengthening, building improvements nor meeting new building code regulations. For

this reason continued funding is needed to complete this most ambitious project. As part of the

restoration project, the Lyttelton Working Mens Club is sensibly taking the opportunity to upgrade the

building to make it more comfortable and in line with modern standards and expectations from such a

facility. Improvements will include the installation of sky lights throughout the centre of the building, thirteen in total at a cost of

$2,000 each. It is easy to see how something that seems so simple and necessary, can generate an expense exceeding $26,000. Even

with significant volunteer labour, the bills keep coming. The total project cost is expected to be around $1.3 million with the club

contributing $480,000 of insurance, and with $470,000 being received in grants and pledges, there is still a significant short fall to

complete the project. Work to date has progressed as funds have allowed, and it would be fantastic for The Loons to open again

without having to mortgage the premises.

At this point in time almost all of the earthquake strengthening has been completed. This is evident throughout the building with the

significant amount of new steel framing in place, the steel encased diaphragm system for greater earthquake residence and general

strengthening to the building through double joists and trusses, new footings and engineered retaining solutions. Today the building

is a skeleton of its former self, but it is at least safe and strong.

The light at the end of the tunnel that drives the Lyttelton Working Mens Club is the ability to create a truly accessible Community

Centre that meets all the theatre, music and performing arts needs for the greater harbour basin community. When open “The

Loons” will once again be a positive draw card for the Lyttelton township, bringing people back here again and again, providing work

opportunities for local young people, and drama and arts training for the schools as well as a music and theatre venue. As part of the

Lyttelton Master Plan, Lyttelton residents identified the need for such a space, and now is the hour to pull together and support this

significant rebuild project.

While no date has been set to reopen, on Saturday 15 June the doors will be open for everyone to have an opportunity to look

through the building and see firsthand what great work has been done, and to visualise the dream destined for this building. Meet

behind the Lyttelton Library on Canterbury Street to be taken through in groups. The Lyttelton Working Mens Club AGM will follow.

If you would like to be more involved in this project or join the Lyttelton Working Mens Club [which is open to any individual, not

just men these days] the annual membership is $30 and is a great way to help keep this project moving along.

Further funds are being sought for specific items, and if you are in a position to help please contact the Lyttelton Working Mens Club

project manager: Neville Walker 021 024 63015 or donations can be posted directly to The Lyttelton Working Mens Club Project,

PO Box 103, Lyttelton 8841. Any amount will be gratefully received.

Little Church with a Story

Saint Saviours at Trinity

Neil Struthers reminds us of a church in the far north of Norway in a tiny town called Honningsvag. A tiny church that survived the

slash and burn retreat when the German Army destroyed the north of Norway as they retreated from Russian soldiers in 1945. This

amazing church survived against the odds. It’s a church with a tale of hope, unity and community. Fast forward Lyttelton 2013 and

it’s official: Neil Struthers comes to tell the Review Team that Saint Saviours Anglican Church is returning to Lyttelton and we will

be the proud owners of this little church with its own amazing story.

A brief summary of the history reveals the church was built in West Lyttelton in 1883, consecrated in 1887, closed in 1974 and then

gifted to Cathedral Grammar. This small wooden church was cut into eight pieces and transported to the school via Evans Pass and

reopened in January 1976. The earthquakes of 2011 saw Cathedral Grammar reassess its building needs. This little church was now

surplus to requirements and in 2012 the Grammar school gifted the church back to Holy Trinity Lyttelton. Well it’s now official the

church really is coming back. Neil proudly announces the new church will be known as Saint Saviours at Trinity. It’s about to start

its long journey back to Lyttelton via Gebbies Pass. This time it will be cut into ten pieces for the journey and relocated on the

former Holy Trinity site.

This is all part of the first phase of the church development project. Neil says “with insurance funds and EQC payouts the dioceses

has enough money to bring the church back, fix the retaining wall on the south boundary, deconstruct the lean two on the vicarage

build the foundations and get the church to lock up stage. This is all part of a $2.385million redevelopment project” he said. Phase

one will cost $1.2 million and expected to be completed by the end of September. Phase two and three are going to be heavily

dependant on funding. A further $1.285 million is needed to see the project through to completion. Some other funding sources

are already being pursued by the church but this is a call for our community to literally dig into its pockets to make this church a

reality.

Neil explains the details of the remaining work. “Phase two is all about repairing and reinstating the interior of the building plus

reinstating the vicarage. It will include repairing the existing St Saviours windows and installing the Lyttelton rose panel with the

three lancets from Holy Trinity plus ensuring the vicarage has facilities like toilets, kitchen, meeting rooms etc.” This is all about

getting the site people ready. The final stage of the project will focus on restoring the original organ of Holy Trinity plus building a

belfry in the grounds. Neil says” I think the belfry could be a lovely memorial for someone”. Neil also has all sorts of interesting

facts and figures. 99% of the weddings at Holy Trinity were for Lyttelton residents. Whilst many were not church attendees they

were related to people associated with the church. Similarly with funerals, 87% were performed for Lyttelton residents who did

not attend the church regularly. Then there were the many community events that the church gladly welcomed the community

for. These included the Rose Show, School Art Auctions, and festival events.

Saint Saviours at Trinity will need all our support both financial and in kind to make our community church a reality. Lyttelton’s

new Anglican community church certainly has some story to tell Contact Neil Struthers 328 8487 if you want to support this project

financially or would like more information. Article: Lyttelton Harbour Information Centre Image: Phillip Baird

Celebrating Matariki Festival of Lights

For the first time this year, Lyttelton Harbour Festival of Lights joins with Lyttelton

Community House and Rapaki Marae to celebrate Matariki. What is Matariki? In short,

Matariki is the Māori New Year.

Matariki is the Māori name for the group of stars also known as the Pleiades star cluster or

the Seven Sisters and what is referred to as the traditional Māori New Year. The rise of

Matariki signals the end of one year in Aotearoa and the beginning of the next. Matariki is

celebrated with activities related to kinship, unity, gatherings, harvesting and planting,

paying tribute to ancestors and looking ahead to the future.

Matariki is widely observed and celebrated by peoples of the world. Over centuries the

Pleiades have been celebrated by the Greeks, Japanese, Chinese, Vikings, Africans,

American Indians, Australian aborigines and throughout the Pacific.

Ripeka Paraone from Rāpaki and Wendy McKay from Cass Bay, were invited by Christine

Wilson to get involved in the first Matariki celebration hosted by the Lyttelton Community

Centre in 2009. Four years on, awareness has increased within the Lyttelton Community

about Matariki, with hundreds of children and Banks Peninsula communities getting

involved in the annual Matariki celebrations held in both Lyttelton and Rāpaki.

This Matariki we celebrate joining with Project Lyttelton’s Festival of Lights thus providing

the opportunity for Lyttelton to be the first township to celebrate Matariki as a community.

This event would not be possible without the generous support of many local businesses.

This year thanks needs to be made to: Christchurch City Council, Lyttelton Port of

Christchurch, Hang-Up Entertainment, Lyttelton Engineering, Fireworks Professionals, The

Canterbury Community Trust, Lion Foundation, Harris and Turner.

Designs Released for Lyttelton’s Civic Square Two Options for Community to Comment On

Two draft design concepts have been developed for Lyttelton’s town or civic square at the corner of London and Canterbury

Streets. And the Christchurch City Council wants your feedback on the concept you prefer before preparing and recommending a

single concept plan to the Lyttelton Mt Herbert Community Board for its approval. The full design detail and feedback form can be

found toward the end of this edition of the Lyttelton Harbour Review.

The concepts are the outcome of two years of community consultation, firstly during the Lyttelton Master Plan process, then more

recently during this civic square project. The community was asked about the function, look and feel of the space during two

drop-in sessions and a survey in March 2013, and a community meeting in April. Early concept designs were peer reviewed by a

group of local design professionals in May.

Council landscape architects have focused on designing flexible, uncluttered spaces which provide the framework for a range of

temporary and permanent features and activities. The project team is currently working with individuals and organisations to

identify possible elements that reflect Lyttelton’s special character and history. An updated proposal will be sent to submitters

before the recommended plan is considered by the Community Board.

This consultation phase also seeks community views on:

� What this space should be named.

� Should any of the transitional arts projects, now on the site, be retained and incorporated in the final design concept.

Local residents, business owners and interested people are welcome to discuss the draft design concepts proposed for Lyttelton’s

civic square with Council staff at:

� the Lyttelton Farmers Market on Saturday, 15 June 2013, from 10.00am to 1.00pm; and

� the Civic Square site, corner of London and Canterbury Streets, on Tuesday 18 June 2013, from 3.00pm to 6.00pm.

The Council’s project team needs to receive your responses before 5pm on Monday, 1 July 2013. You can comment by returning

the freepost form; visiting the Christchurch City Council’s ‘Have Your Say’ website: www.ccc.govt.nz/haveyoursay or by contacting

the Consultation Leader: Jennie Hamilton, Christchurch City Council, phone 941 5207 or email: [email protected]

Cunningham Terrace Retaining Wall Complete SCIRT have completed the retaining wall on Cunningham Terrace, and would like to thank Lyttelton residents for the support

shown while they have been replacing the earthquake damaged wall. Due to the ground being too damp SCIRT were unable to lay

the final road surface at this time, but expect the final surface will be put down in spring. In the meantime they will lay a gravel

running course. There is also further work to follow on with planting and restoration where they have accessed private property.

SCIRT would also like to thank the Lyttelton community in advance for the continued patience and understanding while essential

repair work is still underway in the Lyttelton area. Article: SCIRT Press Release

Earthquake Repair Update for Council Facilities Recreation Centre and Norman Kirk Memorial Pool

On Wednesday 5 June the Lyttelton Mt Herbert Community Board hosted a community briefing at the Lyttelton Main School

Hall on the Lyttelton Recreation Centre and the Norman Kirk Memorial Pool. Council Staff informed those who attended of the

following details.

Lyttelton Recreation Centre

Trinity Hall currently meets 11% of the National Building Standard [NBS] while the Lyttelton Recreation Centre is currently 15% of

the National Building Standard. The threshold that the Christchurch City Council has set for closure of facilities is 34%, therefore

this facility as a whole falls beneath the threshold of what is acceptable and safe for the public. Christchurch City Council policy is

that buildings must be repaired to 67% of National Building Standard before reopening for public use.

There is a moderate level of earthquake damage to the building, and the advice received from structural engineers is that this

facility is repairable:

Cost to Repair to 34% National Building Standard $2,315,000

Cost to Repair to 67% National Building Standard $2,541,500 Council minimum repair standard

Cost to Demolish and Rebuild $4,500,000 Estimate only Norman Kirk Memorial Pool

Men’s and Ladies changing room meet 18% of the National Building Standard. The Plant Room meets 39% of the National Building

Standard. Significant levels of earthquake damage is evident in both buildings and the site has suffered significant land

damage. Level survey shows significant bulging of the retaining walls. The pool tank is cracked / ruptured, and this indicates that

the pool tank needs replacing.

The buildings are deemed uneconomic to repair, and there is a shortfall between the repair cost and the insured amount of

approximately $1.04 million:

Cost to Repair to 67% National Building Standard $2,000,000

Cost to Demolish and Rebuild $2,400,000

Next Step

Community involvement is required to workshop and prioritise the options. Group discussions are scheduled for Wednesday 19

June 2013 at 7.30pm, with the venue to be confirmed. Everyone is welcome to brainstorm and suggest options.

Facilities Rebuild Plan Programme Community Forums Christchurch City Council's Facilities Rebuild Project team will hold a series of community forums during June and July to help

inform residents about progress with the repair and rebuild of Council facilities across the city and Banks Peninsula. Residents are

invited to attend the forums, which will include a 20 to 25 minute presentation, followed by a 50-minute open question and

answer session.

As well as an opportunity for residents to clarify progress on local facilities, the forums will also help the Facilities Rebuild team to

identify the best ways of keeping residents up-to-date with developments in the programme. Depending on feedback received

from the first forums, the format of future sessions may be adapted. It is anticipated these forums will be held quarterly.

The venues and times for the forums are:

Wednesday 19 June 6.00pm to 7.30pm Woolston Club, 43 Hargood Street East, Woolston

Wednesday 10 July 6.00pm to 7.15pm Lyttelton [Top] Club, 23 Dublin Street, Lyttelton

We recognise the importance of engaging with our community and that there is a high level of interest in what is happening with

Council-owned facilities.

Retaining Wall Heritage Christchurch City Council's heritage advisors and urban designers have identified significant [prominent pre-1900] walls in east,

central, and west Lyttelton, including Sumner Road. Advice on the significance of these walls has also been sought from the New

Zealand Historic Places Trust, and there is a requirement under the Archaeological Authority granted by the Historic Places Trust to

restore the walls.

The Christchurch City Council, in junction with the Stronger Christchurch Infrastructure Response Team [SCIRT], are currently work-

ing through a programme of deconstruction, stabilisation and repair of Lyttelton's Council owned heritage retaining walls. It is im-

portant to note not all red rock retaining walls are considered to be significant - only those that are pre 1900 or as agreed with New

Zealand Historic Places Trust.

Significant walls will be refaced with the salvaged red rock over several years as Council funding becomes available. The SCIRT

programme is to deconstruct the damaged wall and salvage the stone facing [red rock] and then construct the new wall [this is the

concrete wall that people can see now]. The Christchurch City Council's Heritage Team have contracted Stone Works to reface

a small portion of the Sumner Road retaining wall with red rock. The purpose of this is to provide an example to the community

of how the future facing works could look and what can be achieved.

Prior to deconstruction, walls are carefully photographed by archaeologists. This is to enable as much of the original material as

possible to be put back in its original position. The Council has pre and post-earthquake photographs of Lyttelton walls which shows

their original and damaged form. For any area of a wall that requires new stone, these will be refaced in the walls original style, for

example aztec, block or random style. These new areas will take several years to age and weather.

Local Musicians Dominate Awards Lyttelton musicians Delaney Davidson and Marlon Williams dominated the

New Zealand Country Music Awards in Gore recently. A double win was

notched up by favourites Delaney Davidson and Marlon Williams at the award

ceremony held as part of the Gold Guitar festival.

Their album Sad But True - The Secret History of Country Music Songwriting

Vol. 1, recorded by Ben Edwards of Lyttelton Records, won a Tui for Best

Country Album and their single Bloodletter was awarded the APRA Best

Country Song 2013. Their "take on a classic American art form" was hailed for

being "brilliantly executed" and "a real joy to listen to".

Davidson said the pair had put a lot of work into the album and it was fantastic that people responded to that. Speaking ahead of

the ceremony, he said he had been determined to go this year. "I was away last year so this time I'm able to drive down to Gore

and attend the ceremony. It's really exciting. I heard some stories about last time and was sorry to have missed the event."

He said the new faces in country music "have gone from the window and are now sitting inside at the table - Marlon Williams, The

Eastern, me, we are all Christchurch locals and all finalists in the Country Music Awards". Davidson said country music in New

Zealand was becoming increasingly relevant, and had a winning combination of synthesis, high quality, DIY, and inventiveness.

Despite this it did not get a lot of media attention. "The only way I knew who [the finalists] were is because I was one."

Delaney Davidson and Marlon Williams played their last show with their band at the Wunderbar on Sunday 2 June. Williams moves

to Melbourne in July.

Police Car Torched in Lyttelton One police car has been written off and another has been damaged in an arson overnight on the 27 May 2013 at the Lyttelton

police station. Sergeant Gary Manch, of Lyttelton, said the Fire Service was called to the station in Sumner Rd at 2.10am on Tuesday

after a neighbour reported hearing an explosion and seeing flames.

Manch said the fire was brought under control "relatively quickly" but not before two marked police cars were damaged. "One car

was fully alight and is a complete write-off, while a second car that was parked beside it has suffered heat damage to its exterior,''

he said. "There's also a small amount of damage to an exterior wall of the station."

Manch said a woman was found close to the scene shortly after the incident and has been spoken to by investigators. No arrests

have been made, and inquiries are continuing.

Two rubbish-bin fires were found in London Street that appeared to have been lit shortly before the police station fire.

"Fortunately, we can still use the station'' Manch said. "We're fortunate that the damage wasn't more severe, but it's still a blow.

We lost the old police station after the earthquake and were just getting back on our feet in our temporary building. If it hadn't

been for the volunteer fire brigade, we would have lost our station. They're bloody good buggers."

Manch said police would like to hear from anyone who saw the fire or any suspicious activity in the area. Anyone with information

is asked to call the Christchurch police on 03 363 7400.

plenty to share In Lyttelton so many residents grow vegetables; or have fruit trees literally dripping with produce. Plenty to Share is about sharing any

excess produce with the community. So if your lemon tree is yellow with goodness and you can’t keep up with making lemon curd, bring

those surplus fruits down to the organisers, where every Saturday the swapping of produce is well underway in Lyttelton on the corner of

London and Canterbury Street; and also in Diamond Harbour on a Saturday morning at the village centre. If there is something on the

Bujinkan Classes Wednesdays 7.00pm to 8.30pm | Lyttelton Union Parish Church, Winchester Street

The Bujinkan is a collection of nine different schools [including samurai and ninjutsu schools] which use a variety of skills, ideas and

weapons to protect yourself and the people around you. Classes are taught in a safe, relaxed, friendly manner by a licensed

Bujinkan instructor who has trained in several countries and travels to Japan to advance his own training. It’s through these

connections that the instructor is able to pass on the art as it’s taught today. The best way to understand is to train, so grab a friend

and turn up. Classes are open to both men and women aged 18 upwards. No previous martial arts experience is necessary,

practitioners of other arts are also welcome. You don’t need to be fit or in your twenties to start. Bujinkan martial arts are unusual

in that they can adapt to the practitioner rather than the other way round. For more information about training times, location and

cost visit www.bujinkanweatheralldojo.com or ring Shaun on 027 231 6881.

EQC: Help us Reach the Most in Need Media Release | 30 May 2013

Help us to help the most vulnerable Cantabrians this winter. EQC is committed to prioritising the home repairs of our most

vulnerable customers first. This winter we want your help to identify vulnerable people most in need of support.

Call EQC on 0800 DAMAGE (0800 32 62 43) if you’re waiting on repairs and you or someone in your home is:

� dependent on a carer,

� or over 80 years of age with serious health condition/s and the earthquake damage is aggravating your health.

It is important to remember that EQC’s prioritisation process also takes into consideration the degree of damage to the home, the

area where you live and the type of dwelling you have. For example, some of our most vulnerable customers may reside in a

multi-unit dwelling (two or more home connected by a shared wall, foundation, garage or roof) or their repairs may be complicated

(for instance, site-specific foundation designs), and this will affect when their repairs are carried out.

We are contacting our customers who have identified as most vulnerable to talk about beginning their repairs over the next three

months. For those identified as our most vulnerable customers we will provide a dedicated team of case managers who will provide

continuity of service with a designated staff member as a single point of contact providing regular and consistent updates.

EQC's Community Contact Team located in Christchurch also provides case management and face to face appointments for our

most vulnerable customers at various locations throughout Christchurch. This team provides a service where they will visit the

customer at home if getting to an appointment is difficult for the customer.

These services can be accessed through calling EQC on 0800 Damage, for face to face appointments or home visits ask to speak to

the Community Contact Team.

Make Sure You are Well Prepared for Winter Conditions Christchurch people are well versed at ensuring their emergency supplies are fully stocked, but with inclement weather forecast,

now is a good time to check winter supplies. The Canterbury Civil Defence Emergency Management Group would like to remind

people to stock up on essential items, just in case we have any power outages or travel interruptions as a result of bad weather as

we move in to winter.

In previous years heavy snowfall has led to road closures and power outages affecting large parts of Canterbury. A heavy snow fall

in June last year cut power to thousands of homes, left many roads impassable, and disrupted flight services. “People need to be

prepared now for the possibility that this winter could again bring hazardous weather conditions to Canterbury,” said Neville Reilly,

Regional Civil Defence Group Controller.

“For general readiness, every household should create and practise a Household Emergency Plan, and assemble and maintain

emergency survival items. Everyone should have the necessities in place to be able to be self-sufficient for three days or more in

the event of road closures and power cuts. This includes having stocks of food, water, warm clothing, fuel, alternative lighting and

other emergency supplies on hand. We would also encourage people to make sure their homes are properly insulated. Installing

heat tape on exterior pipes can help prevent water systems from freezing,” he said.

Neville Reilly said checking supplies in your car is another good thing to do and advised people who use power managers to make

sure they are topped up as we come in to the heart of winter He added there are a number of places people can find information

on weather conditions and warnings including www.metservice.com and www.cdemcanterbury.govt.nz .

Motorists considering driving over mountain passes in winter are advised to take chains with them in case of snow and to check

road conditions and the weather forecast before setting out. Even in small quantities, snow can be hazardous. It only takes a few

centimetres on a road to make driving dangerous.

A list of emergency supplies can be found below.

Specific Emergency Preparedness Items:

Torch with spare batteries or a self-charging torch; Radio with spare batteries; First aid kit and essential medicines; Blankets or

sleeping bags; Pet supplies; Wind and waterproof clothing and strong outdoor shoes.

Food and water for at least three days

Non-perishable food (canned or dried food); Food, formula and drinks for babies and small children; Water for drinking. At least

three litres per person, per day; A camp-cooker or gas barbeque to cook on; A spare, full gas cylinder; A can opener; Water for

washing and cooking.

Suggested Winter Preparedness Items for Your Car:

Windshield scraper and brush; Battery or self-charging torch; Battery or self-charging radio; Extra batteries; Water; Snack food;

First aid kit; Jumper cables; Hi-vis vest; Tow chain or rope; Cigarette lighter cell phone charger; Wind and waterproof clothing and

strong outdoor shoes; Personal medications; Blanket(s); A shovel.

Environment Canterbury’s Approach to Air Quality this Winter This winter Environment Canterbury will be asking the community to help take responsibility for improving Christchurch winter air

quality. As well as encouraging people to change to cleaner forms of heating and to replace their burners once they are 15 years

old, the focus will be on getting people with solid fuel burners to use them more efficiently so they are not adding pollution to win-

ter air.

Environment Canterbury Director for Air Katherine Trought says “Many of the calls to the Pollution Hotline are about woodburners

which are compliant as well as those which are non-compliant. So getting people to use their burner more efficiently and to help

them think about what they are burning will improve the amount of PM10 coming from their chimney.

Environment Canterbury’s Approach to Air Quality this Winter “We know that many people whose chimney smokes a lot are not actually aware that this is happening. We are asking everyone

with a burner to go outside, check out their chimney and to take steps if it is smoking too much. It can be that simple.’’ Ms Trought

says if people burn only dry, seasoned wood and don’t burn rubbish or treated wood in their burner, there is much less chance of

their chimney being excessively smoky. So far this year, Christchurch has had seven nights when levels of PM10 have exceeded the

National Environmental Standards which are set by the Government and which reflect World Health Organisation guides for levels

of PM10.

“We need a number of approaches to improving winter air quality if we are to reach the health-based target of three exceedances

by 2016 and one exceedance by 2020,’’ says Ms Trought. “Smoke from home heating causes the majority of winter pollution in

Canterbury urban areas so all chimneys make a difference – if everyone takes responsibility for what comes out of theirs, we go

some way to addressing the problem.’’

If people see an excessively smoky chimney they can call the 24-hour Smoky Chimney Line on 08000 329 276. All calls are

confidential. “We know people are keen to help when they see a really smoky chimney, but often don’t know how to let their

neighbour know there is an issue,’’ says Ms Trought. “We have made it easy for them as they can go to the website

letscleartheair.co.nz where they find a printable flyer which they can drop in their neighbour’s letterbox. This lets the homeowner

know their chimney is smoking too much and gives them five easy tips for dealing with the problem.’’

Teams of observers will be out in the evening in Christchurch from mid-June through the coldest part of winter looking for

chimneys which are smoking too much. Environment Canterbury staff will try to get to all these homeowners and talk them

through ways they can reduce their polluting emissions. They will also follow-up to ensure the problem is being addressed.

“Cleaning up the air is a community effort,’’ says Ms Trought. “We can all play a part by reducing the amount of smoke from our

own chimneys and by helping our neighbours become aware there may be an issue.’’

Television Take Back Although the South Island went digital at the end of April, there’s still time for people to take advantage of the TV TakeBack

recycling programme and the Going Digital Targeted Assistance Package. The TV TakeBack programme [operated by the Ministry

for the Environment] means that, for a limited time, South Islanders can recycle their old TVs at a cost of no more than $5. The

programme has been successful with more than 50,000 sets collected across the South Island to date. However, the success means

that the South Island’s share of the subsidy is expected to be used up soon – after which the charge is likely to increase to cover the

full cost of recycling. Residents are encouraged to act now and recycle their old televisions at the rate of no more than $5 before

the subsidies are used up.

It is also not too late for people to take up the Going Digital Targeted Assistance Package, which is designed to help those groups

most likely to face the greatest technical and financial difficulties in going digital. The Package remains open in the South Island

until 30 July, but if there are people out there who meet the criteria and are currently without a television, they should phone the

Going Digital team on 0800 838 800.

The Going Digital Targeted Assistance Package is available to people who have not already got Freeview, SKY or IGLOO, and who

are: 75 and over with a Community Services Card; receiving a Veteran’s Pension; receiving an Invalid’s Benefit; or former recipients

of the Veteran’s Pension or Invalid’s Benefit who moved to New Zealand Superannuation at Age 65 or over. People taking up the

Package will receive a Freeview set-top box, installation, training and technical support; but those who have already gone digital do

not qualify for the Package.

For further information about television recycling, visit www.tvtakeback.govt.nz to find out where your nearest drop-off point is.

Finalising Lyttelton’s civic square design

have your say June 2013

Feedback sought on draft design conceptsTwo draft design concepts have been developed for Lyttelton’s town or civic square at the corner of London and Canterbury Streets.

Christchurch City Council wants your feedback on the concept you prefer before preparing and recommending a single concept plan to the Lyttelton/Mt Herbert Community Board for its approval. A report is intended to go to the Community Board on 22 August 2013.

This consultation phase also seeks community views on:

1. What this space should be named.

2. Whether you think any of the transitional arts projects now on the site should be retained and incorporated in the final design concept.

The Council’s project team needs to receive your responses before 5pm on Monday, 1 July 2013.

Origin of the two draft design concepts

The concepts are the outcome of two years of community consultation, firstly during the Lyttelton Master Plan process, then more recently during this civic square project.

The community was asked about the function, look and feel of the space during two drop-in sessions and a survey in

Local residents, business owners and other interested people are welcome to discuss the draft design concepts proposed for Lyttelton’s civic square with staff at:

• the Lyttelton Farmers Market, London Street, on Saturday, 15 June 2013, from 10am–1pm; and

• the civic square site, corner of London and Canterbury Streets, on Tuesday, 18 June 2013, from 3pm–6pm.

You can comment by:

• Returning the enclosed freepost form

• Visiting the Christchurch City Council’s ‘Have Your Say’ website: www.ccc.govt.nz/haveyoursay

• Contacting the Consultation Leader:

Jennie Hamilton Consultation Leader Christchurch City Council Phone: (03) 941 5207 Email: [email protected]

Please ensure that your comments reach us by 5pm on Monday 1 July 2013

March 2013, and a community meeting in April. Early concept designs were peer reviewed by a group of local design professionals in May.

Council landscape architects have focused on designing flexible, uncluttered spaces which provide the framework for a range of temporary and permanent features and activities. The project team is currently working with individuals and organisations to identify possible elements that reflect Lyttelton’s special character and history. An updated proposal will be sent to submitters before the recommended plan is considered by the Community Board.

Draft concept design for a section of Lyttelton’s civic square site.

Key themes from responses Key themes which emerged from community feedback and are included in the two draft design concepts are:

• A busy and vibrant space that also includes quieter, calm places, depending on the existing site levels.

• Connections between and beyond the site’s different spaces.

• Integration of Lyttelton’s geological, tangata whenua and early settler history in the design. This includes the cenotaph and sculptural historical references such as the brick barrel drain and appropriate maritime artefacts.

• An organic, flexible and inclusive approach that provides spaces and activities for everyone, including play elements for younger and older children.

• A well-integrated public toilet.

• A quirky, local flavour expressed in the design, materials, planting and other features, including public art.

Specific features included as a result of community consultation so farAs a result of feedback, particularly the Council’s March 2013 survey on what people wanted to see and do in Lyttelton’s civic square, the following features have been included in both design options:

1. The Lyttelton Cenotaph, which originally stood in Oxford Street before it was relocated to a site on Simeon Quay. It was severely damaged by the earthquakes and will be rebuilt.

2. Public toilets which could also be an artwork.

3. Performance spaces.

4. A 160-year-old bell from St Joseph’s, one of Lyttelton’s main churches demolished as a result of the earthquakes. The Council has been advised that St Joseph’s wishes to gift the bell to the Lyttelton community for use as a village bell.

In the Council survey, 49 percent of the 140 respondents who commented on the cenotaph wanted it integrated in the square compared to 34 percent who did not. Another 14 percent neither agreed nor disagreed and 3 percent did not know.

Sixty percent of the 138 respondents who commented on the public toilets wanted them in the civic square, 29 percent did not, 9 percent neither agreed or disagreed, and 2 percent did not know. A number of submitters suggested that the toilets could also be an artwork with a quirky Lyttelton look.

The Council has responded to a strong community call for a performance space on the site. A paved area providing shelter and a power supply is provided on the steps between the lower and middle levels. Other open areas on the lower and upper levels can also be used for various types of performance and activities.

The 160-year old bell from St Joseph’s Church, and the timber beams and stone from the original belltower, are likely to be available for reconstruction on the site and have been included in the draft design concepts. During a presentation to the Community Board, local resident and parish bellringer Dave Sanders said the bell was “a bit of history to bring to the future” and it could be rung each weekday at noon.

Rationale for the two draft design conceptsThe starting point for the two draft design concepts was to ensure the spaces and use of the civic square site “worked” in urban design terms. Boundaries have been kept open to encourage interaction from the streets and local businesses.

The community expressed a desire for well-designed, flexible spaces, which can be used by everyone. Both concepts follow the natural contours of the site and its wider context within the Lyttelton Harbour/ Whakaraupō Basin.

The options show differing locations for the Lyttelton Cenotaph. In Option 1 the cenotaph is at the rear of the middle level. Option 2 shows the cenotaph on the London Street/Canterbury Street corner. In both concepts the cenotaph has been situated in such a way that it is embedded into the site, with access to all four sides.

Both concepts show that the site has generally been divided into three areas as follows:• The lower level is a paved, busy space which allows

movement through it, but also areas for the passerby to stop, linger and sit a while, with both permanent and flexible seating areas. Open and easy access along the road frontages is included and the corner is anchored by a structure such as the cenotaph or waharoa (main entranceway).

• The middle level is designed to be a more passive area. The grassed area will be kept as large as possible to make it a flexible space for different uses and contribute to the greenery. The tall retaining wall at the Canterbury Street boundary could be a feature eg art or memorial wall. The corrugated iron fence at the top of the retaining wall (on the road boundary) will be replaced with a balustrade, possibly with a feature hand rail or leaning rail. The middle level is to be separated from the lower level by terraced steps/seating which can combine as a performance area. The public toilet is to be located on the middle level to give good access and improved visibility/safety. The toilet could be integrated into the landscape or designed as an art feature.

• The top level is to be a natural looking, but playful space, with views from the top corner to be retained. Play is designed to be integrated into the fall of the land by use of slides and climbing walls, for example. The path will be made as accessible as the existing gradients allow, with the use of ramps where possible.

Play is to be integrated into the landscape as much as possible, making use of the change in levels, rocks and naturally found materials. Play or a water feature could also make reference to the existing historic brick barrel drain which passes diagonally under the site.

There are opportunities for integrated art works on the waharoa, play features, flags and other maritime references, toilet building, paved surface and retaining wall detail, and the incorporation of historic local found objects. There is also the possibility of retaining some of the pieces of transitional art currently on the site.

The preference for lighting is to create a hierarchy of lighting with the lower level being well lit for night time activities and pedestrian level lighting to provide safe access through the remainder of the site. Other ambient lighting could be provided to light the cenotaph or other structures, or as art lighting.

Community feedback indicated that the area’s geological, tangata whenua and early settler history should be represented through design and materials. This can be partially achieved at this draft design concept stage but will evolve over time. The design will retain flexibility to allow local expression of art and culture.

Plant choice is also an opportunity to express local ecological character, biodiversity and community aspirations for the site. There will be room for herbs, flowers, fruit and nut trees if desired by the community.

The civic square site is already a popular meeting place for the community.

6. A two-sided mosaic seat which includes a lamppost and a permaculture-style community herb garden. 7. Lava flow steps - the concept.

Tell us in the feedback form if you think any of these works should be incorporated in the final draft concept plan for the civic square site.

What happens nextAfter consultation closes on 1 July 2013 comments will be analysed and a single concept design will be prepared for recommendation to the Community Board for approval on 22 August 2013.

All submitters in this round of consultation will receive a copy of this recommended concept and the project team responses to key issues before the Board meeting. This will allow those who wish to comment at that meeting an opportunity to seek speaking rights.

Once the project has been approved by the Community Board, and funding in the Three Year Plan has been confirmed by Council, detailed design, tendering, site preparation and construction can proceed.

2. A Hundertwasser-style multipurpose stall.

3. A mandala artwork of ceramic tiles in the shape of ‘Lyttel’ people.

4. An oversized lounge suite.

5. A listening post of recordings of the local environment, past and present. This is embedded in the wooden furniture.

Transitional ProjectSeven transitional works have been installed on Lyttelton’s civic square site as part of a separate, but related Council-funded project. The Transitional Project has provided an opportunity for local artists and craftspeople to propose, create and trial possible future design elements.

Depending on community feedback, it may be possible to incorporate some of the pieces of recently installed transitional art in the final scheme of the civic square.

The seven transitional works are:

The two draft design concepts for Lyttelton’s civic square aim to provide a flexible framework for future permanent and temporary elements. A final recommended concept will be sent to submitters before it is considered by the Lyttelton/Mt Herbert Community Board.

The key difference between the draft design concepts is the location of the cenotaph in Options 1 and 2 and the introduction of a waharoa (main entranceway) in Option 1.

1. Which draft design concept do you prefer?

Option 1 - Includes waharoa (main entranceway)

Option 2 - Lyttelton Cenotaph is on the corner of London and Canterbury Streets

How could your preferred option be improved?

2. Transitional Project

Seven transitional works have recently been installed on this site. It may be feasible to incorporate some of the pieces in the final scheme for the civic square. If this was the case, which of the seven pieces would you prefer to be retained? For details please see page 4 of the leaflet.

Thursday 30 May, 2013 Heritage Event in 2013 recognises value of city’s p ast The Council today agreed to hold a smaller Heritage event later this year and re-launch Heritage Week in 2014. The event will include a series of guided site visits over a weekend and a forum where various heritage organisations and community groups can share their experience and expertise. Community, Recreation and Culture Committee Chairperson Yani Johanson says that the community had clearly indicated that there was a desire to recognise heritage in some way in 2013. "There is significant interest in the historic fabric of our city, and as such the Council believes it is important to recognise this through a Heritage weekend event in 2013. "The Council’s staff have been asked to put together a programme in conjunction with key heritage groups to ensure an informative and interesting range of activities. While sadly we have witnessed much heritage destruction in our city, we have also seen some positive stories of efforts to repair and restore heritage buildings. "I look forward to this event giving the community an interactive chance to learn more about what has happened and what work is being done." Natural Environment and Heritage Manager Helen Beaumont says that the decision reflects the role heritage continues to play following the earthquakes. “The re-launch of Heritage Week in 2014 will give us the opportunity to reframe and broaden our appreciation of heritage following the Canterbury earthquakes. The earthquakes are now part of the history of the City and Banks Peninsula. “A focused heritage event later this year will recognise the depth of the community’s feelings about the value heritage brings to our everyday lives.” “The fact that there are over 72 places of heritage interest noted in our updated City and Architectural Heritage Guide shows the richness of heritage remaining,” says Ms Beaumont. www.ccc.govt.nz/heritage - ends - For more information contact: Fiona Clayton Communications Adviser Christchurch City Council 027 234 1403

Consultation opens on draft Local Alcohol Policy todayFriday 31 May 2013

The community’s chance to give feedback on the Christchurch City Council’s draft Local Alcohol Policy(LAP) begins today (Friday 31 May).The draft policy, which is a provision of the Sale and Supply of Alcohol Act 2012, was adopted by the fullCouncil earlier this month and consultation will run until 5pm on Monday 1 July. The aim of the draft LAP isto minimise alcohol-related harm in the city and ensure that the sale, supply and consumption of alcohol isundertaken safely and responsibly.

Mayor Bob Parker encourages people to make submissions, so the Council knows what they think about whatis proposed and can make any necessary changes.

“Our community has been asking for years for input into licensing matters. This is their chance to take astand in shaping the future of alcohol-related matters in Christchurch.

“It’s a big moment for our community and we want to hear from as many people as possible.”

A whole of Council committee, chaired by Councillor Sue Wells, will hear and consider submissions, thendeliberate and decide on the draft LAP during July and August 2013. The provisional LAP will then bepublicly notified in early 2014 and open to appeals. Final adoption of a LAP is not likely to be until mid tolate 2014, depending on the length of the appeal process.

Provisions in the draft include:

A closing time of 3am in the Central City Entertainment Precincts (excluding Victoria Street) fortaverns, bars, pubs, night-clubs and clubs, with a one-way door policy from 1am.A closing time of 1am elsewhere in the Central City (including Victoria Street) for taverns, bars, pubs,night-clubs and clubs, with a discretionary one-way door policy where appropriate.A closing time of 1am in suburban centres in the city for taverns, bars, pubs, night-clubs and clubs,with a discretionary one-way door policy where appropriate.Maximum trading hours for selling alcohol of 9am until 9pm for all off-licences in Christchurch.Restrictions on the location of new bottle stores and taverns to business zones.

Information sessions

As part of the consultation process, there will be three public information sessions held where people can findout in more detail how the draft LAP was developed, what is proposed in it and how to make a submission.The sessions will start with a short presentation and will be held on:

Date: Tuesday 11 June, noon–1.30pm

Christchurch City Council

Christchurch City Council Draft Local Alcohol Policy (LAP)

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is a Local Alcohol Policy (LAP)?A LAP – under the Sale and Supply of Alcohol Act 2012 (the Act) – allows councils such as the Christchurch City Council to develop a set of policies about licensing of premises that sell and supply alcohol within their territorial area.

2. What can a LAP deal with?A LAP can only deal with matters relating to licensing. Through a LAP, communities are able to set the direction on some or all of the following matters:

∤ the location of licensed premises near certain types of facilities, such as in specific neighbourhoods or near schools or churches.

∤ the density of licensed premises by specifying whether further licences or types of licences should be issued for premises in the district or in a particular area.

∤ “one-way door” conditions for licensed premises that would allow patrons to leave premises but not enter or re-enter after a certain time.

∤ discretionary conditions in a licence.

∤ restrictions or extensions to the maximum trading hours set in the new Act which are: 8am - 4am for on-licences (such as bars, cafes and restaurants) and 7am - 11pm for off-licences (such as bottle stores and supermarkets).

In addition, a LAP may apply differently to different kinds of licensed premises.

3. Why is Christchurch developing a LAP?Christchurch City Councillors unanimously voted in February 2013 to prepare a provisional Christchurch-specific Local Alcohol Policy (LAP) before the October 2013 local body elections.

The Councillors wanted to prepare a LAP as far as legally possible so that it was ready to notify after 18 December 2013 (a requirement of the legislation).

There was a strong feeling that the Christchurch community wanted to address alcohol issues sooner rather than later.

4. What happens if the incoming Council does not like the LAP that is developed by the current Council?

The newly elected council can chose to proceed with notifying the LAP developed by the current Council, start the process again or decide not to have a LAP at all.

5. Has the community been involved with the development of a draft LAP?

A LAP is made by a council in consultation with its community. The Act requires that the Police, Medical Officer of Health and Licensing Inspectors be involved in the preliminary development of a draft LAP, but the Christchurch City Council has also engaged with numerous other stakeholders to get their input into a draft LAP. Other preliminary work included a survey of Christchurch and Banks Peninsula residents, forums for interested stakeholders and collating data from health agencies and the Police. This draft LAP is now out for community consultation.

6. What happens now?The draft LAP was adopted by the full Council on 16 May 2013. It is now out for community consultation via a Special Consultative Procedure (SCP), to allow for community input, until 1 July 2013. Anyone who is interested can make a submission on the draft LAP.

7. When can I make a submission?Submissions about the draft LAP can be made from 31 May until 5pm on 1 July 2013. The Council will not accept anonymous submissions.

8. How can I make a submission?The submissions may be sent either:

∤ Through the Council’s website (www.ccc.govt.nz/HaveYourSay); or

∤ By email to [email protected]; or

∤ By using the submission form or any other written form and posted to: Freepost 178

‘Submissions on proposed Local Alcohol Policy 2013’ Christchurch City Council Democracy Services PO Box 73013 Christchurch 8154 or

∤ By delivering to:

(a) Civic Offices, 53 Hereford Street, Christchurch; (b) The Christchurch City Council Libraries and Service Centres

A copy of the statement of proposal, which includes the draft LAP, is available for public inspection during ordinary office hours at the following places:

(a) Civic Offices, 53 Hereford Street, Christchurch; (b) The Christchurch City Council Libraries and Service Centres.

Copies of this statement of proposal may also be viewed on, and downloaded from, the Council’s website, www.ccc.govt.nz/HaveYourSay

9. What happens to the submissions?The Council has established a committee of the full Council to hear and consider, submissions on the draft LAP, and to then decide whether or not to proceed with preparing a provisional LAP and what it will include. The committee will be chaired by Councillor Sue Wells. Hearings from those submitters who choose to be heard will take place in late July 2013. Any person who makes a written submission and wants to be heard by the committee, should make that request in their written submission.

10. What happens after the public hearings in July?The committee of the full Council will consider all the written and heard submissions and then decide whether or not to proceed with preparing a provisional LAP and what it will include. The provisional LAP will then be publicly notified in early 2014 and open to appeals if the new Council agrees. Final adoption of a LAP is not likely to be until mid to late 2014, depending on the length of the appeal process.

11. What happens after the Council notifies a provisional LAP?The Act allows for an appeal process to the national Alcohol Regulatory and Licensing Authority. Only a person or agency that has made a submission as part of the special consultative procedure on a draft LAP will be able to appeal against any element of the resulting provisional LAP. The Police and Medical Officer of Health have statutory rights of appeal.

12. When will the LAP become operational?

Final adoption of a LAP is likely to be mid to late 2014 at the earliest, with a number of steps required to meet legislation requirements.

The default national maximum hours in the Sale and Supply of Alcohol Act 2012 (8am - 4am for on-licences (such as pubs and restaurants) and 7am - 11pm for off-licences (such as bottle stores and supermarkets)) apply from 18 December 2013. Premises that currently open for longer hours will have to comply with the maximum trading hours from this date. Premises with shorter hours will continue to operate to the hours of their licence.

As new licences are applied for or existing ones renewed, the District Licensing Committee and national Alcohol Regulatory and Licensing Authority will refer to the new default hours, other criteria in the Sale and Supply of Alcohol Act 2012 and any Local Alcohol Policy in place, in making their decisions.

13. What is the District Licensing Committee (DLC)?Under the new legislation, each local council must establish one or more DLCs to make decisions on all licences and managers certificates. The DLC will replace the current District Licensing Agency. The DLC will have wider powers than the Agency as it will consider all licence application and renewals and managers certificate applications and renewals, regardless of whether they are contested or not contested. The Christchurch City Council needs to have a DLC in place by 18 December 2013. A DLC is made up of a chairperson or commissioner and two committee members.

14. What is the Alcohol Regulatory and Licensing Authority (ARLA)?ARLA considers and determines licensing applications having replaced the Liquor Licensing Authority from 19 December 2012, which previously had this role. During the first 12 months of the new law, ARLA will continue to consider all contested applications for licences. ARLA will be primarily an appeal body for applications. ARLA will hear any appeals to the Council’s provisional policy.

15. What is the LAP used for?Once a LAP is in place, the local District Licensing Committee and the national Alcohol Regulatory and Licensing Authority must have regard to it when making decisions on licence applications.

16. Are other Councils around New Zealand preparing LAPs?The Christchurch City Council is one of the first Councils in the country to start preparing a LAP. Other centres that have begun work include Wellington, Auckland and Dunedin, and locally Waimakariri, Selwyn and Ashburton are underway.

17. How often will the LAP be reviewed?Legislation requirements mean the LAP must be reviewed every six years, although Councils can chose to do this sooner if they wish.

18. What are some of the proposals included in the LAP?∤ A closing time of 3am in the Central City Entertainment Precincts

(excluding Victoria Street) for taverns, bars, pubs, night-clubs and clubs, with a one-way door policy from 1am.

∤ A closing time of 1am elsewhere in the Central City (including Victoria Street) for taverns, bars, pubs, night-clubs and clubs, with a discretionary one-way door policy where appropriate.

∤ A closing time of 1am in suburban centres in the city for taverns, bars, pubs, night-clubs and clubs, with a discretionary one-way door policy where appropriate.

∤ Maximum trading hours for selling alcohol of 9am until 9pm for all off-licences in Christchurch.

∤ Restrictions on the location of new bottle stores and taverns to business zones.

19. What will the draft LAP do about off-licences and on-licences wanting to set up where there is local opposition because of concern about location and/or density?

The District Licensing Committee and national Alcohol Regulatory and Licensing Authority will consider an expanded range of criteria in deciding whether to grant new or renewing licences, including considering the effect the licensed premise will have on the ‘amenity and good order’ of the locality.

The draft LAP proposes limiting new off-licences and on-licenses for taverns to locations on land zoned ‘Business’ or ‘Town Centre’, or in the case of a green-fields growth area, on land that has been identified as a business area in an Outline Development Plan approved by the Council.
