Hey, get on Board with the latest news in your community

You don’t need me to tell you that the year is fast drawing to a close and already there are Christmas decorations in the shops – a tad too early if you ask me.

A claim made by a Councillor in The Press that loc A claim made by a Councillor in The Press that local Community Boards have voted for/against the proposed Wheels to Wings cycleway has been refuted by Council. Head of Transport Richard Osborne confirmed today to Think Papanui that Council staff held a joint briefing with the Waimāreo/Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewood Community Board and the Waipapa/Papanui-Innes Community Board on 10 November 2020. The briefing covered the Nor’West Arc and Wheels to Wings cycleways. A briefing on the Wheels to Wings cycleway was also given to the Urban Development and Transport Committee on 17 December 2020. Both of these briefings were public excluded and were for information not decision-making purposes, so no voting took place. Public feedback on the proposal will go to a hearings panel, which will report to the Council's Urban Development and Transport Committee where the final decisions will be made.

Level 1 water restrictions have been introduced ac Level 1 water restrictions have been introduced across Christchurch from today, 14 January. The use of hoses, sprinklers and garden irrigation systems is permitted only on alternate days - even-numbered addresses on even dates, and odd-numbered addresses on odd dates. No water can be used outdoors between 3pm and 9pm.
Council Q&A:
Q: Is the Council conserving water on its sports fields, parks and Botanic Gardens?
A: "We’re doing our best to lead by example. We’re trying to conserve water by only watering parks and sports fields early morning and late evening, when it’s cooler. However, some of our fields have a sand base, which must be watered during the day to prevent the turf from dying. If the turf died, it would be very expensive to replace. The Botanic Gardens has its own private well so doesn’t draw water from the public water supply, but it’s still doing what it can to lead by example and save water."
Q: What about water bottlers/rural irrigators?
A: "Water-bottling plants/rural irrigators don’t use the Council’s water supply network (they have their own water sources), so they don’t affect the public supply."
