Lyttelton Harbour Tree of Hope Donations for Families Please

Let’s help our harbour communities shine this Christmas. It has been

quite hard for many of us over the last three years. With all sorts of

challenges and setbacks Teresa Cameron thought it would be a great idea to

have a special Christmas tree for our community. “A tree to signal hope,

resilience and strength for the year ahead for us all” she said.

No doubt the New Year will bring new challenges for us all, so Teresa’s idea is to

bring some love, joy, peace and kindness into our lives. This can start by this

community donating Christmas presents under our first “Tree of Hope”.

In her role at the Garage Sale Teresa has been working together with the

Lyttelton Harbour TimeBank, Lyttelton Library, Community House, Lyttelton

Harbour Information Centre and Project Lyttelton to make her dream a reality.

The aim is we can all help our wider community by donating family gifts,

non-perishable food items plus new and

pre-loved items, wrapped or unwrapped under

our Trees of Hope.

Anything wrapped needs a tag, for example,

present for a young boy, present for a family etc.

The main tree will be located at the Lyttelton

Library and a smaller version will be at the

Lyttelton Harbour Information Centre.

Donations will be accepted from Monday

December 2 until Friday December 20. Special boxes under the trees will also

enable you to nominate a person or family who you think might need some

Christmas cheer. Just fill in the cards with their name and address and post in the

box under the tree.

On December 20th

all the community partners will meet and the gifts will be

distributed based on the cards under the tree. Delivery will take place on

Monday 23rd and Tuesday 24th. Any questions please call the Lyttelton Harbour

Information Centre 328 9093 for more details. Thank you.

Lyttelton Main School Merger Update Town Site and Hill Site Designations

The Appointed Board of Trustees of the Lyttelton Merged School would like to

advise whanau/families where their children will be located from Term 2 of the

2014 school year. The new school will initially operate over two sites: the

St Joseph’s site will be known as the ‘Town site’ and the Lyttelton West site will

be known as the ‘Hill site’.

The current Lyttelton Main site on Oxford Street will become a construction site

from May 2014 and there will not be any children on site during the build.

For the full update and confirmation of staffing for the new school, please refer

to the latest newsletter in this copy of the Lyttelton Review.

Lyttelton Harbour Review is a 100%

voluntary community newsletter

initiative developed after the February

2011 earthquake by local Professionals

Real Estate Agent Lynnette Baird, and

Lyttelton Harbour Information Centre

Chairperson Wendy Everingham.

The objective of the Lyttelton Harbour

Review is to help keep local residents

informed with what is going on in the

wider Lyttelton Harbour community. Of

course the success of the Lyttelton

Harbour Review could not be possible

without the ongoing support and

enthusiasm from the wider community.

A big thank you goes out to everyone

who sends information; is willing to be

interviewed by a couple of amateurs; or

lets us know what might be

happening in the neighbourhood. The

Lyttelton Harbour Review project would

not be possible without you all.

If you have an event, topic or cause that

you would like to share with the

harbour community, then Lynnette or

Picture Tells a Thousand Words TimeBank Members Around the Harbour

As we always know, all communities have the skills from within to

create the things that they need.

Quite a while ago Margaret Jefferies was interested

in getting some of our community assets mapped.

This included a wide range of things from soil types,

food growing places, skills, water and so on.

TimeBank member Crile Drosher has been helping

with these projects and he recently produced the

first map highlighting where all the Lyttelton Harbour

Timebank Members were located.

It is amazing looking at Crile’s maps to see how dense the network of members

is! Every street in Lyttelton has people who are members of the TimeBank.

Similarly there are many members in Corsair Bay and Cass Bay. As we go around

the harbour members are also dispersed in each settlement with a growing

cluster over in Diamond Harbour.

The maps just give a great overview of how dense this network of people is. Take

a good look. Maybe you didn’t realise you had other TimeBankers on your street.

There are over 400 TimeBank households around the harbour and the network is

still growing! No wonder the harbour communities are continuing to get stronger

as we all get more and more opportunities to link with each other.

Nestled into Crile’s maps he also shows where other TimeBanks are around the

country and the world. In 2005 Lyttelton was the only TimeBank in the country

and now look how many there are!

Supermarket Opening Delayed Due to be the first supermarket to open in East Christchurch since the February

2011 earthquake the Super Value in London Street, originally planned to be open

this week, has been delayed by council consents.

Rob and Cheryl De Thier have taken over the franchised store, after the Woolston

Super Value they were operating was bought by Foodstuffs. For Rob, the

reopening will be a full circle, as he worked as butchery manager at the Lyttelton

grocery store in 1978.

As the building is shared with the Wunderbar, there are changes that need to be

made to meet new fire regulations before work can continue. Now the De Thiers

are looking to open their doors in February.

Tommy Changs: Lyttelton Record Fair Buy, Sell, Trade - December 7 from 10am

Salvation is here people! Or it will be on December 7 at Tommy Chang’s Bar.

The inaugural Lyttelton record fair is upon us. Created and hosted by James at

Tommy Chang's Bar, it will be a day of record crate scouring, trying to find that

out-of-press Gun Club b-side or that Nick Cave 10" that your friend never sold to

you back in 1999.

With the sun shinning in the courtyard and music spun on vinyl, of course, by local

DJ's - it will be the best music market place you have ever been.

The Tommy Chang’s bar will be serving everything from ice cold New Zealand

craft beers to mid-morning-pick-me-up-fix-my-hangover bloody marys, and

refreshing G&T's. The Chang's Kitchen will be open with Leah Grace, the

marvellous resident chef, the creator of one of the finest burgers in the world,

keeping you fuelled up for a day of binge record buying.

Make sure your down to Tommy Chang’s early to get all the good stuff before its

snapped up. They will have stalls held by local legends, including Recordman (Paul

Stephenson from Riccarton Markets) and Brett Johansen (a huge

contributor to RDU and a man with amazing musical taste), maybe even a guest

appearance by the ever elusive El Santo Muerto and heaps heaps more.

And selling is not to restricted to dealers and collectors! If you have got some

records that are gathering dust and wanna make a quick buck off, bring down a

crate, take a seat, put it between your legs, grab a cold beer and sell em to

another vinyl appreciator - or trade with people you know.

Lyttelton Record Fair: its open to everyone and everything, Buy, sell, trade! It truly will be a religious experience.

Lyttelton Floatation Tank Initiative Hello Lyttelton. We are wanting to move to Lyttelton and establish a

business that we are hoping the Lyttelton community would embrace

and benefit from. This involves what is called a floatation tank. It is a

tool that is utilised for deep relaxation and advanced meditation

purposes.

It is a fibre-glass tank, filled with a dense saline solution, so dense that

somebody lying down will effortlessly float to the surface. The water is

maintained at body temperature, and the tank (once the user closes

the entrance and exit door), is completely dark and silent. This is the

most sensory reduced environment available.

The experience has been likened to that of a 'return to the womb' -

completely supportive and relaxing. There has been some incredible

research into the benefits of use of the tank, including but not limited

to: Deep relaxation; Increased creativity; Greater self-empowerment;

as well as enabling deeper meditative states.

This is a form of therapy which is quickly gaining momentum internationally. Although currently our tank is only one of two

available in New Zealand, and the only one available in the South Island for public use.

We are hoping someone in Lyttelton is interested in helping bring this venture to Lyttelton, namely through the provision of space,

or may be able to advise on an appropriate and available rental property. The space to hold the tank needs to be rather specific.

A garage on a concrete base that is available to be renovated for insulation would be ideal.

If you feel you can help, please contact Vicky Campion 022 340 9939 or email ucmeditationresearch@gmail.com. They are looking

for a permanent space to be available from February/March 2014.

Garage Needed, Short Term A Randolph Terrace resident is wondering if anyone in Lyttelton could provide storage for their old truck so that they can take it off

Lyttelton school merger

update

FROM THE APPOINTED BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF THE LYTTELTON MERGED SCHOOL 29TH

NOVEMBER 2013

The Appointed Board would like to advise whanau where their children will be located for terms 2,3 & 4 of the 2014 school year.

The new school will initially operate over two sites;

1) The St Joseph’s site will be known as the ‘Town site’ and 2) The Lyttelton West site will be known as the ‘Hill site’.

If your child is currently enrolled at Lyttelton Main School they will be located on the Town site for Terms 2,3 & 4 of the 2014 school year. This means if your child begins the year on the Lyttelton Main site they will need to relocate to the Town site for the beginning of Term 2.

If your child is currently enrolled at Lyttelton West they will be located at the Hill site for the duration of the 2014 school year (no change in location for children).

If your child is starting as a new entrant after 5 May 2014, they will be located at the Hill site. There will only be one new entrant class in the new school.

Projected class numbers for the 2015 year suggest if your child is starting as a new entrant in the 2015 school year they will start school on the Town site.

The current Lyttelton Main site on Oxford Street will become a construction site from May 2014 and there will not be any children on site during the build.

While our intention is to minimise disruption for the children, please be assured that staff and children will be working together across sites to develop the culture of the new school and get to know each other before moving into the new buildings in Term 3 2015

City Care thanks you for your patience and

co-operation as we undertake these repairs

in your neighbourhood.

Godley Quay will be closed from Wednesday 4 December until 20 December 2013, and from 6 January 2014 until late February 2014. The road will be open to one way traffic over the Christmas/New Year period. An update will be sent prior to Christmas.

Temporary traffic management will be in place at the intersection of Brittan Terrace and Voelas Road during this work, to allow heavy vehicles exiting Godley Quay a free turn onto Brittan Terrace.

Traffic exiting Voelas Road from Godley Quay into Brittan Terrace will have right of way. Traffic travelling on Brittan Terrace will need to give way to traffic exiting Voelas Road into Brittan Terrace.

There will be no exit from Cressy Terrace into Brittan Terrace, and from the north west side of Voelas Road into Brittan Terrace. Please follow suggested detour. Residents accessing Cressy Terrace will need to follow the detour via Simeon Quay and Voelas Road. (Refer map).

Resident access to properties in Godley Quay will be maintained throughout most of the work. Please follow on-site signage. We will notify you directly prior to any restrictions. Look out for a notice in your letterbox.

For those periods when no vehicle access to your property may be available, please park outside the immediate area of the work site.

On street parking will be affected in the immediate work area. Cones will indicate where parking will not be available. Be on the look out for changed traffic conditions and drive to these conditions.

29 November 2013 Port Hills Rock Stabilisation Sugarloaf Reserve – Mitchells/Gilpins Tracks – 5 - 20 December 2013

Rock stabilisation work will be carried out at the Sugarloaf Reserve, Port Hills, Christchurch during the weeks within these dates. The work involves treating unstable boulders, outcrops and bluffs on several sites. You may hear the sound of explosives and drilling during this time. Please note that the track is currently closed to members of the public and other unauthorised personnel, and this will continue during this time. Due to the multiple hazards that are present on this site, we may have some “exclusion zones” around the individual work sites. Any further questions for Council officers can be directed to: porthillsgeotech@ccc.govt.nz We look forward to your support through this part of the earthquake remediation works.

Question Answer

I have a property in a Class I area that I want to rent out, am I able to go ahead with my plans?

The level of risk to people’s lives has not been assessed to the extent needed for the Council to make any changes to where people can live. Two more GNS Science reports in coming months will provide more detail around the risk to people’s lives and whether it is “tolerable” or “intolerable”. These reports will be used to inform policy around the management of those risks.

If a home has not been issued with a section 124 (s124) notice, it is up to the property owner to decide if they wish to live there or not. If you are unsure you could engage a building professional, such as a structural engineer to check your property.

My property is in a Class I area; I need to move forward with repairs to my retaining wall. What is the Council position on this, and should we wait until April when the stage two and three reports are available before we do anything?

There is currently nothing to stop people from engaging a geotechnical engineer to look at an engineering solution for construction work. However, in a practical sense, the reality for most people in Class I areas is that it will be April 2014 before we will know and understand the full picture of the risks associated with mass movement in these areas.

GNS Science’s technical data wasn’t included in the report, when will it be publically available?

The GNS Science Stage One Report, and subsequent reports in the series, will be available on the Council website at www.ccc.govt.nz/porthillsgeotech

The Council holds detailed investigation data that requires a specialist to interpret it. If a consultant or specialist you are working with requires this data, we can make it available to them on request in line with Council policy.

GNS Science geotechnical work for these reports includes investigations at individual sites; however, the data informs a much larger, area-wide story. This information is not a substitute for site-specifi c investigations that looks at a site in much more detail and may include a wider range of geotechnical methodologies and investigations.

GEOTECHNICAL

Port Hills land damage: GNS Science Stage One ReportMeeting for residents living in Class I areasHeld in the Redcliff Mt Pleasant Bowling Club, 9 James Street, Redcliff s 13 November

Questions and answers:Mike Theelen, General Manager Strategy & Planning, Christchurch City CouncilAaron Haymes, Building Consents Department Manager, Christchurch City CouncilChris Massey, GNS Science Engineering Geologist Bruce Emson, EQCAnnette Purvis, IAG

Question AnswerIf properties remain in the intolerable risk category (following the future development of a life risk model for Class I areas), what will happen? Is it possible there will be pockets of Class I land that can’t be built or lived on?

Following the completion of investigations, the Council, in conjunction with GNS Science, will produce risk maps – these will be used to make recommendations about where people can build and live.

It is possible a small number of properties may reach the intolerable life risk threshold. The Stage One Report gives us a preliminary classifi cation for Class I, II and III areas – it is simply too early to say what may or may not happen regarding future decisions.

I have accepted a settlement for my home, what will happen if my land is deemed an intolerable life risk and I can’t rebuild on it?

The Stage One Report gives a preliminary hazard classifi cation (Class I, II and III). It is simply too early to say what may or may not happen regarding future decisions.

How will Class I land be managed in the future?

Through the work we have done on the Stage One Report we are building up a picture of the extent and nature of mass movement areas in the Port Hills. Future reports – stages two and three – will add to the knowledge we already have. Once we have a clearer picture, we will be in a position to look at recommendations around mitigation measures.

The Council has been investigating slope stability in the Port Hills since late 2011, why weren’t we told? The Government’s investigations have been going on and now there is another thing for us to deal with.

From late 2011 the Council began investigating cracks and other damage that suggested there has been mass movement where rock and/or soil have moved down a slope. This work has been – and continues to be – very complicated and time consuming. We have now reached a point where we have a sound body of knowledge about the preliminary status of these areas of mass movement that we can share with aff ected residents.

We had hoped to release this information at the same time as the Government’s zoning review but unfortunately the announcement was delayed due to the recent court action. The Government’s zoning review relates to rockfall/boulder roll and cliff collapse hazards. The Council’s GNS Science Report is about slope stability.

Will we get answers about the status of our properties in April?

By April we expect to have received the stage two and three reports. These will need to be considered by the full Council who will then direct staff about their expectations around the development of policy for properties in Class I, II and III areas.

Are the stage two and three reports site-specifi c?

These reports are area-specifi c, as is the Stage One Report.

Will GNS Science continue drilling?

At this stage all the drilling for Class I areas is complete, however there is a very small chance that further drilling may be required in one or more of these areas. Drilling may be required in the Class II and Class III areas as part of the Stage 4 Report (a case study on two of the toe slump features). If further drilling is required, aff ected residents will be contacted and works advise notices will be distributed to let people know.

You mention areas may change in size, will this happen in April or before? Will properties outside the areas be drawn into a class?

It is possible some areas will change in size. We are taking a cautious approach at this early stage so, in some cases, the area a property sits within is more likely to move from a Class I area to a II and from a Class II to a III, rather than the other direction.

We will work to keep aff ected residents informed of progress as we move toward the April date.

Question AnswerWhat are the insurance companies and EQC’s response to the information in this report?

EQC are committed to settling Port Hills land claims by Christmas 2103, and are happy to continue to settle with aff ected Port Hills residents.

IAG want a safe and sustainable solution for clients. We want to consider the information in the Stage One Report, and what further reports might mean for aff ected Port Hills residents. Please come and talk to us.

Will the information in this report mean insurance premiums will increase?

IAG need to consider the information in the Stage One Report and what this means for our customers. There are always factors that arise that need to be considered and each case will be considered on an individual basis. However, at this stage we don’t anticipate any major changes in premiums as a result of these GNS Science Stage One Report fi ndings.

For new builds in Class I areas will insurance companies take on new policies?

From IAG’s perspective, this is unlikely until the completion of stage two and three reports.

THE GOVERNMENT’S PORT HILLS ZONING REVIEWQuestion Answer

The CERA red zone off er expires in March 2014, and the GNS Science stage two and three reports are not expected to be fi nalised until April 2014. Will the red zone off er be extended to allow people to take the stage two and three report fi ndings into account when making their decisions?

The Government’s zoning review relates to rockfall/boulder roll and cliff collapse hazards. The Council’s GNS Science Stage One Report is about slope stability. CERA is working with property owners, and if there is a need to extend their off er period it will be considered in due course.

INSURANCE

EMERGENCY RESPONSEQuestion Answer

Will the work Fulton Hogan is doing on repairs to Main Road cause complications for the mass movement area around The Brae/St Andrews Hill? And, is work on Main Road now going to be held up?

The GNS Science information will be used by the Port Hills Lifelines and Key Routes Project* team to work out strategies for ensuring vital transport connection to the eastern suburbs and the Port of Lyttelton is maintained.

SCIRT has not been advised of anything that would delay/infl uence the Main Road three laning project which Fulton Hogan is now working on. Work has started on the seawall; wastewater repair and road reconstruction are both scheduled to begin in 2014. Road reconstruction and total project will be completed in mid-2015.

The anticipated traffi c impacts on Main Road consist of lane shifts and reduced width. Later in the project in 2014 it may be necessary to have some small lane closures at the entrance/exit from The Brae, Te Awakura Terrace and St Andrews Hills Road. The traffi c management plans for these intersections will be planned and approved in accordance with other SCIRT projects/works in the area and the community will be advised well in advance.

*The ‘Port Hills Lifelines and Key Routes’ study reviewed a number of key routes around the Port Hills. Main Road was considered to be a lifeline route as it provides a vital transport connection to the eastern suburbs and the port of Lyttelton for overweight and over-dimension loads. It also carries vital water, sewer, power, phone and other services. The purpose of this project is to make sure that route is secure and remains usable in the event of a future signifi cant earthquake or other event.

BUILDING CONSENT Question Answer

My property is in a Class I area. I have a building consent and construction is about to get underway. What does the information about Class I areas mean for my building project?

I am a couple of weeks away from submitting my designs for a building consent and my property is in a Class I area. Will the Council now hold up my building consent – do I need to wait until after April 2014?

The Building Act 2004 has been put in place to protect people; and buildings must demonstrate compliance with the construction requirements in the Act.

The reality for most people in Class I areas is that it will be April 2014, when we have the stage two and three reports, before we will know and understand the full picture of the risks associated with mass movement in these Class I areas.

People in Class I areas are entitled to pursue a building consent, but are required to demonstrate compliance with the Building Code before they can be issued with a consent. Until these reports are available it will be diffi cult to demonstrate compliance with the Building Code. Any application for building or resource consent will be treated on a case-by-case basis.

As with all properties in the Port Hills, Class I, II and III areas will need a site-specifi c geotechnical report for a rebuild or foundation repair, if the development requires a building and/or resource consent. A geotechnical consultant could use information from the Council’s GNS Science Stage One Report, along with site-specifi c geotechnical information, to make decisions on rebuild or repair options.

For customers who have already progressed through the design and consenting phase and are now in a Class I area, the Council strongly recommends your engineer reviews the fi ndings in the Stage One Report and considers how this information impacts on the foundation design for your building.

Question AnswerWhy isn’t the Council advising people in Class I areas not to apply for a building consent?

Under the Building Act 2004, the Council is not able to stop people from submitting a design for a building or resource consent. However, the reality for most people in Class I areas is that it will be April 2014, when we have the stage two and three reports, before we will know and understand the full picture of the risks associated with mass movement in these Class I areas.

We will work with an applicant’s design team to give the best advice we can based on the level of information we have from this GNS Science Stage One Report.

We are looking at the status of consents that have been issued for Class I areas and will be contacting owners.

What is the Council doing about water run-off problems on earthquake-damaged hillside land?

Following the 22 February 2011 earthquake, many mains were broken – releasing water for more than 12 hours and creating damage to the land and infrastructure. The Stronger Christchurch Infrastructure Rebuild Team (SCIRT) is working through a repair horizontal infrastructure programme.

Please contact the Council on 914 8999 or 0800 800 169 to report leaks or other water run-off problems.

The Council has a policy on wastewater management, including water run-off from earthworks and driveways. To view the policy visit www.ccc.govt.nz/homeliving/wastewater/policyandreports.aspx

What about loess run-off on a private driveway, who is responsible for managing this?

Managing issues such as water run-off on private property is the responsibility of the property owner. However, if run-off is causing a nuisance and you think it is coming from another property, we suggest you fi rstly discuss this with the property owner concerned.

If you continue to experience run-off issues, please contact the Council’s enforcement team on 914 8999 or 0800 800 169.

For people whose property may end up in a possible, future intolerable life risk Class I area, what are the things that need to be addressed, such as building consent?

The GNS Science Stage One Report gives us a preliminary understanding of mass movement areas in the Port Hills. We need to complete further reports – stages two and three – and consider their fi ndings in order to make any recommendations. At this stage, building consents for Class I areas will be looked at on a case-by-case basis. If a customer’s design team can demonstrate how the project/design will comply with the Building Code with the current information available, a consent will be issued.

The reality for most people in Class I areas is that it will be April 2014 before we will know and understand the full picture of the risks associated with mass movement in these areas.
