Interesting comments here from Papanui Councillor Mike Davidson. Our Council was discussing a report on the water supply programme that can be found at the link below, and which includes advice that “The Minister of Health has signalled a stricter regime for potable water supply with a significant increase in the standard of infrastructure and risk management required to avoid residual disinfection / chlorination” as well as other interesting details such as timelines for remediation works at a number of pump stations. http://christchurch.infocouncil.biz/Open/2018/08/CNCL_20180809_AGN_2346_AT_SUP_WEB.htm

Today Councillors sent a strong message to Central Government, to leave Christchurch’s drinking water with the people of Christchurch, under a democratically elected governance structure. The possible outcome of what may be coming from Central Government is extremely concerning with the control of our drinking water moving to an undemocratic governance structure with not only the possibility of permanent chlorinated drinking water, but also the rate payers of Christchurch having to help pay for the drinking water infrastructure in other regions in the South Island. This is totally unacceptable and I will march in the streets with the people of Christchurch if it heads that way.

The minutes for the Waipapa/Papanui-Innes Community Board’s 6 August meeting are now available. They’re pretty brief, as there was effectively only one thing on the agenda – receiving feedback on the proposed changes to Cranford Street and the surrounding area – and the record shows the board spent three hours doing just that. Click through to read, and a reminder that there’s an ordinary meeting of the Board this Friday 10 August. http://christchurch.infocouncil.biz/Open/2018/08/PICB_20180806_MIN_2886_AT.PDF

The cost to the City Council of renovating the Redwood Plunket rooms has increased from an initial $30,000 to now total $100,000. The latest increase and associated delay is due to asbestos and mould in the building. Originally planned to be finished in June, completion is now expected in November 2018. Read about this, and other local issues, in this week’s Nor’West News.https://www.yumpu.com/en/document/view/61678159/norwest-news-august-07-2018
