Introduction Te Whakatkinga
3.1 A
road naming request has been submitted by the agent on behalf of each developer.
A preferred name and alternative names have been put forward for the roads/lanes.
3.2 The
recommended road names have been checked against existing road names in
Christchurch and bordering districts, for duplication, alternative spelling, or
other similarities in spelling or pronunciation to avoid the potential for
confusion. The proposed names are considered sufficiently different to existing
road names.
3.3 The
recommended road names have been checked against the Council’s Naming
Policy dated 15 November 2023 and is considered to be consistent with this
policy. The specific criteria for assessing a name from clause 2 is set out
below.
3.3.1 A traditional or
Māori name which is acceptable to the Rūnanga or Iwi; this may be a
name reflecting the physical characteristics of an area, an activity or event
associated with the area or of a notable ancestor.
3.3.2 A feature of
historical, social, cultural, environmental or physical importance in the area
(e.g., Carlton Mill Road or Carlton Mill Reserve*).
3.3.3 The name of a notable
family, person or event associated with the locality or with the wider
Christchurch area.
3.3.4 A name in recognition
of a person’s service. This can be for community service, conservation,
sport, the arts, science and research or other sphere of activity.
3.3.5 Consistency with a
common or established theme for naming in a subdivision or locality.
3.3.6 A name that reflects
the diverse cultures and communities of the locality or of Christchurch
generally.
3.3.7 The name of an event
or activity strongly associated with the immediate location including an
informal name for the area that is (or was historically) in common usage.
3.3.8 A name associated
with a person, event or activity of significance to Christchurch including
names associated with people, events, or places of national and international
significance.
3.4 The
criteria for names that are not suitable for approval from clause 6 are set out
below.
3.4.1 Names of people,
flora, fauna or geographical features not associated with the area, e.g., names
of native trees which are not present in the area or views that cannot be
identified, except where the name continues a current naming theme in the
locality.
3.4.2 Currently trading
commercial organisations except for sponsorship names for facilities and leased
parks.
3.4.3 Anagrams,
amalgamations or derivatives of people's names.
3.4.4 Names of living
persons.
3.4.5 Names related to the
developer of a subdivision.
3.4.6 Name of a person,
club or organisation associated with a privately owned building on Council
land, where the club or organisation does not hold the ground lease for the
building.
3.4.7 Names for roads which
may cause confusion because they are associated with another geographical
location or feature e.g., Parklands Drive which is not located in the Parklands
suburb.
3.5 The
recommended road names have also been checked against the Australia and New
Zealand Standard AS/NZA 4819:2011 Rural and Urban Addressing. The names are considered
to be consistent with the Standard.
3.6 Under
the Roads and Right-of-Way Naming Policy, the name considered must be requested
by the developer. There is no ability to consider alternative names without
first checking whether there are any duplications or similarities with other
road and right-of-way names.
3.7 Consultation
has been undertaken with Land Information New Zealand who have raised no
concerns with the proposed names.
3.8 Consultation
under the policy with rūnanga is not required because the roads to be
named are not collector roads and/or site(s) of significance under the District
Plan (clause 3 of the Naming Policy).
3.9 No
addresses of neighbouring properties are affected by the proposed road naming
(clause 12.2 of the Naming Policy).
3.10 The names requested
have been accompanied by an explanation of the background of the names, which
is summarised below.

RMA/2023/2182
3.26 The proposed
roads are shown in Attachment A.
3.27 The proposed
name and alternative names are themed for local history and the local
environment.
3.28 Road 1 - Donnithorne
Road
3.29 The Donnithorne
name has been a very prominent family name associated with the Styx
River/Highsted area for many decades. John and Edith Donnithorne first settled
in the Sawyers Arms Road, Casebrook area in 1955, where they remained for the
next 58 years.
Their two sons,
Garry and Andrew, took up residences and farmed land holdings in the area
commencing in the late 1960’s, including market garden farming on Crofton
Road and Gardiners Road, and dog kennels on Hussey Road for an uninterrupted
50-year period.
Garry’s
specialty was pick your own peas, cauliflowers and lettuces, which continued to
be grown on the 246 Gardiners Road property though until the early 1990’s
when the small block farming model became unsustainable.
Andrew was also
active with farming in the area, preferring livestock and running up to 200
grazing cattle, sheep and feed bailage on the surrounding properties in the
blocks between Gardiners Road and Cavendish Road bordering Tulett Park, up
until they were developed into residential sections during the last 15
years.
Both men became
prominent businessmen in Christchurch, with Garry receiving a Queens Service
Medal for Services to the Community in 2016, to go with his Papal Cross of
Honour for distinguished services to the Catholic Church received in
2014.
This tradition
has carried on into the third and fourth generations with Garry’s son,
Jason and his family currently residing in the old homestead on the property.
Andrew passed
in 2020 and his widow Hellen continues to live and graze cattle mobs on her
property opposite Jason on Gardiners Road.
3.30 Lane 1 - Cinnamon
Lane
3.31 In the late
1980’s through to the mid 1990’s the local farm children in the
area would congregate together with their ponies, starting up the top end of
Gardiners Road by Poppies Preschool and picking up “like minded horse
friends” as they headed to the meeting point on the corner of Gardiners
Road and Claridges Road.
The consortium
of ponies, some ridden, some walked, some saddled, some bareback, was quite an
attraction as they meandered into the residential streets. Led by
“Cinnamon,” an adopted old mare that was placid and calm, she the
perfect example of love over performance and set the pace at a slow walk
towards the Grampian Street dairy to buy lollies and ice creams.
Alternative Names - 244 Gardiners Road
RMA/2023/2182
3.32 Terra
Road/Lane - Terra represents the safe passage of land. In order to safely
cross the Pūharakekenui/Styx River, sticks were laid out to mark safe
passage on firm ground.
3.33 Waterwheel
Road/Lane - During European settlement, the area was used for a number of
purposes including sheep farming and milling. The river was used to drive
waterwheels and provided an important source of power for sawmills and
flaxmills. By the time the First World War came along, milling had ceased on
the site.
3.34 Sawmill Road/Lane
- During European settlement the area was used for a number of purposes
including sheep farming and milling. The river provided an important source of
power for sawmills. By the time the First World War came along, milling had
ceased on the site.
3.35 Quail Road/Lane
- The New Zealand quail was the only quail endemic to New Zealand and was
extinct by around 1875. New Zealand now has three species of quail; california,
brown and bobwhite, all introduced into New Zealand in the late 1800’s
primarily for game hunting.
3.36 The proposed and
alternative names are considered to be consistent with the policy, except for
“Donnithorne Road”, as this is directly related to the developer
(6.1.e) and some of the family members mentioned are still alive (6.1.d),
however it is also in reference to a notable local family (2.1.c).
3.37 Notwithstanding the apparent inconsistency above, the discretion
lies with the Community Board to approve any of the above name options,
including the alternative names.

1. Purpose and Origin of the Report Te Pūtake Pūrongo
1.1 The
purpose of this report is to seek approval for the removal of a number of trees
located within the Bishopdale mall area to facilitate the redesign of the
carpark area.
1.2 The
report is in response to an ongoing request from the local supermarket to
extend the footprint of their building into the existing carpark area that is
currently designated as road reserve.
1.3 As the trees are healthy and structurally sound, the decision to
remove the trees falls to the Community Board.
1.4 Under section 4.7 of the Councils Tree Policy, the Board may
consider the removal of a Council tree for projects located on Council
land. The Board must take into account the benefits of the project
against the benefits provided by the trees.
2. Officer Recommendations Ngā
Tūtohu
That the
Waimāero Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewood Community Board:
1. Receive the information in the Tree Removal in Bishopdale Mall
Report.
2. Notes that the decision in this report is
assessed as low significance based on the Christchurch City Council’s
Significance and Engagement Policy.
3. Notes that the road stopping, tree removals,
and carpark reconfiguration with associated landscaping to facilitate the
redevelopment are interdependent.
4. Notes that the Public Works Act 1981 will be
used to stop the road, and that this process will be enacted under the
delegated authority of the Property Consultancy Manager.
5. Notes that the decisions in this report are
conditional upon the developer entering into a sale and purchase agreement,
together with a development agreement for the carpark, to purchase the portion
of road to be stopped.
6. The board approves the removal of the trees
located within the carpark (ID’s 98396, 98375,98373 and four Pseudopanax)
and reconfiguration of the carpark with additional Tree planting subject to the
following conditions:
a) The
developer entering into a Sale and Purchase Agreement and a Project Development
Agreement for the carpark works.
b) The
developer obtaining all necessary approvals and consents for the supermarket
extension (as required under the S&P).
c) Detailed
carpark design meeting Council’s infrastructure and urban tree design
standards—including provision for adequate tree planting and soil volume
to meet the Councils Urban Forest Plant target of 20% canopy cover—and
being approved by both the Transport Unit and the Urban Forest Manager.
d) The
developer provide for all additional tree planting required to meet the
Councils Tree Replacement policy.
3. Executive Summary Te Whakarāpopoto Matua
3.1 The
local supermarket are investigating options to extend the size of the
supermarket footprint by approximately 10m into the existing carpark.
3.2 If
the supermarket is extended, it will require a carpark redesign as the building
would occupy the area currently used for ingress and egress into the carpark.
3.3 To
facilitate the extension of the building and the redesign of the carpark, a
number of tree removals will be required including the removal of a large
mature gum tree.
3.4 This
report seeks to gain approval for the removal of these trees subject to a
number of conditions being met.
4. Background/Context Te Horopaki
4.1 The
Bishopdale mall is located on the corner of Harewood Road and Farrington Avenue
and includes a number of shopping centres within the area, one of which is the
New World supermarket.
4.2 The
developer has expressed an interest to extend the size of the supermarket
building to meet the demand of the local area. The developer’s
preference is to extend the building footprint to the north by approximately
10m taking up a portion of the existing carpark.
4.3 This
would take the building footprint very close to the base of an existing mature
gum tree (ID:98396). The extension of the building would also block of
the existing access to the carpark triggering the requirement for a redesign of
the car park.
4.4 In
order for the carpark to be redesigned, tree removals would need to take
place. The purpose of this report is to provide a level of assurance to
the developer that a redesign involving tree removal is possible.
4.5 The
tree that is posing the greatest obstacle to the build and the carpark is the
large mature gum tree. The tree has been assessed by the Council’s
Arborist who found it to be in good health and structurally sound.
4.6 As
there are no issues with the tree’s health or structure, the decision to
remove the tree falls under the delegation of the Community Board under section
334 of the Council’s delegations register.
4.7 The
attached concept design for the carpark shows the new entry and exit points
will take up the location where trees are currently located and will require
removal.
4.8 If
this design proceeds, a total of six (6) trees will need to be removed.

4.9 The
Council’s Tree Policy outlines when it will consider the removal to trees
and how they will be replaced.
4.10 Section
4.7 of the Tree Policy states:
“Approval by Council for the
removal of trees to facilitate projects on Council land will take into account
the value of the project to the community, including public health and/or the
local environment and considerations taken for retaining existing trees
compared with the loss of the benefits provide by the trees.
4.11 This
report provides details to the Community Board which will allow them to assess
the benefits of the project against the benefits that are provided by the tree
along with how those benefits will be replaced overtime.
4.12 Trees
generally provide a wide array of benefits, particularly those located within
carparks. Some of the key benefits provided by these trees are:
· Amenity - Trees
soften the surrounding built up environment
· Managing stormwater
– Trees reduce stormwater run-off particularly through heavy rain events
by intercepting rainfall and slowing down the flow.
· Cooling –
Trees provide shading which in turn reduces heat build-up within the carpark
and the parked vehicles.
4.13 The
developer has highlighted that if they are not able to extend the footprint of
the building, they will not be able to operate in the location and will have to
consider relocating.
4.14 It
is not possible within the current timeframes to assess the full impact that
the supermarket relocating will have on the other commercial operators.
It is likely that its relocation will reduce the number of people who come into
the area and this may have a flow on affect to the other operators.
4.15 A
proposed condition to the approval that has been put forward by staff is to
require that the approval to remove the tree will be subject to the new carpark
layout incorporating new tree planting locations.
4.16 It
is important to note that trees require a sufficient soil volume to grow
healthy and meet their size potential. There are a wide range of
engineering solutions that allow trees to be planted within carpark
environments without compromising on parking spaces.
4.17 Specific
wording has been included in the recommended conditions to require that any
tree planting within the carpark provides sufficient soil volume to support the
tree through to maturity.
4.18 While
some tree planting will be able placed directly back into the carpark, it is
unlikely that there will be sufficient space for the full 10 trees required
under section 1.9 of the policy to be planted. It is therefore
recommended that the remaining trees are planted within the wider carpark area
where available spaces currently exist. Only once these spaces have been
exhausted should planting outside of the carpark area be undertaken.
4.19 No
consultation with the wider community or other commercial companies in the area
has been undertaken as it was not possible to have this work completed within
the required timeframes.
Road Stopping Application details:
4.20 The
proposed road stopping relates to a portion of legal road
within the Bishopdale Mall car park, required to enable redevelopment of the
New World supermarket as part of the wider mall revitalisation. A plan is
attached.
4.21 Staff
have assessed the statutory options available (Local Government Act 1974 and
Public Works Act 1981), along with the relevant clauses of Council’s Road
Stopping Policy and determined that the proposal meets the requirements for use
of the Public Works Act.
4.22 Consistent
with practice, this report fulfils the notification requirement to the
Community Board of road stoppings in their area where the Public Works
Act and staff delegation are being used to give effect to the stopping and
subsequent land sale. This provides an opportunity for the Board to raise any
matters for consideration in exercising that delegation.

5.1 The
sales and purchase agreement will outline the costs that will be associated to
the development to ensure Council is not at a financial disadvantage.
6. Considerations Ngā Whai Whakaaro
Risks and Mitigations Ngā Mōrearea me
ngā Whakamātautau
6.1 There
is a risk that without the additional conditions put in place that require the
developer to proceed with the extension that a number of trees may be removed
without sufficient reason to do so. By keeping the conditions within the
resolution, it is unlikely that the trees will be removed without the
development proceeding.
6.2 The
risk posed by the mature tree within the carpark has been raised by the
developer. Staff have assessed the tree and have not found any damaged or
poorly formed branches which would indicate the tree is likely to have a branch
failure.
Legal Considerations Ngā Hīraunga
ā-Ture
6.3 Statutory
and/or delegated authority to undertake proposals in the report:
6.3.1 The
decision in in alignment with 4.7 of the Tree Policy which allows the Community
Board to consider the tree for removal.
6.3.2 The
decision to approve the removal of the tree falls within the Community Boards
delegation.
6.4 Other Legal Implications:
6.4.1 The
legal consideration is the Council decision making is subject to the principles
set out in section 76-81 of the Local Government Act. These principles
include that the local authority must:
(a) Seek
to identify all reasonably practicable options for the achievement of the
objective of a decision (section 77)
(b) Assess
the options in terms of their advantages and disadvantages (section 77)
(c) Give
consideration to the views and preferences of persons likely to be affected by,
or to have an interest in, the matter (section 78)
6.5 The
Council has discretion to make judgments about how to achieve compliance with
the principles, in proportion to the significance of the matters affected; the
extent to which alternative options are to be identified and assessed; and the
extent and detail of the information to be considered (amongst other matters)
i.e. decisions with less significant effects may justifiably be subject to a
less stringent decision-making process than those with significant
effects.
6.6 The
decision in this report is assessed as low significance based on the
Christchurch City Council’s Significance and Engagement Policy
6.7 The Board have the discretion to seek staff undertake consultation
prior to a decision being made.
Strategy
and Policy Considerations Te
Whai Kaupapa here
6.8 The
required Decision:
6.8.1 Aligns
with the Christchurch
City Council’s Strategic Framework. The Tree removal will support
business investment through the allowance for the Supermarket to extend.
6.8.2 Is
assessed as Low significance based on the Christchurch City Council’s
Significance and Engagement Policy. The level of significance was
determined by assessing the impact of the decision upon the wider community.
6.8.3 Is
consistent with Council’s Plans and Policies. The
decision to remove the tree will be in alignment with the Councils Tree Policy
subject to the additional conditions also being adopted. The replacement
planting will include sufficient planting to meet the Councils Urban Forest
Plan.
6.9 This
report does not support the Council's
Long Term Plan (2024 - 2034).
Community
Impacts and Views Ngā Mariu ā-Hāpori
6.10 No
consultation with the wider community has been undertaken.
6.11 The
decision affects the following wards/Community Board areas:
6.11.1 Waimāero
Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewood Community Board.
Impact
on Mana Whenua Ngā
Whai Take Mana Whenua
6.12 The Decision does not involve a significant decision in
relation to ancestral land, a body of water or other elements of intrinsic
value, therefore this decision does not specifically impact Mana Whenua, their
culture, and traditions.
6.13 The decision Does not involve a matter of interest to Mana Whenua and Will not impact on our agreed partnership priorities
with Ngā Papatipu Rūnanga.
6.14 The
trees are located within a carpark area and do not form part of an area of
native forest.
Climate
Change Impact Considerations Ngā Whai Whakaaro mā te Āhuarangi
6.15 The proposals in
this report are unlikely to contribute significantly to adaptation to the
impacts of climate change or emissions reductions.
6.16 The
removal of the trees will have a negative impact on adaptation to climate
change however with sufficient replacement planting and reconfiguration of the
carpark, the impact will be short lived.
7. Process Steps Ngā Mahinga ā-muri
Board Report finalised –

Fendalton–Waimairi–Harewood Community Board’s four-year
Community Parks Rolling Renewal Programme for FY26–FY29.
1.2 This
approval will confirm the proposed four-year programme and lock in the
programme for FY27, incorporating the changes proposed by members of the
Fendalton–Waimairi–Harewood Community Board (Attachment A).
1.3 The
report has been generated by staff and includes the proposed Community Parks
Rolling Renewal Programme for FY26–FY29, incorporating feedback from the
Waimaero Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewood Community Board members.
2. Officer Recommendations Ngā
Tūtohu
That the
Waimāero Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewood Community Board:
1. Receives the information in the Community Parks Rolling Renewal
Programme Report.
2. Notes that the decision in this report is
assessed as low significance based on the Christchurch City Council’s
Significance and Engagement Policy.
3. Approves the Waimaero
Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewood Community Boards Community Parks Rolling Renewal
Programme (Attachment A).
3. Executive Summary Te Whakarāpopoto Matua
3.1 The Community Parks Capital
Rolling Renewal Programme provides a structured approach to maintaining and
renewing park assets, ensuring they remain safe, functional, and fit for
purpose. Asset renewals are prioritised primarily on condition, with the highest
priority given to assets in poor condition or presenting safety risks.
Additional factors, including community use, asset importance, and age, are
also considered in determining renewal priorities.
3.2 Programme
delivery is further informed by cost, funding availability, project timing, and
statutory or legal requirements. This enables a coordinated and efficient
approach to renewal across the parks network.
3.3 Staff
presented the draft programme to the Community Board to seek feedback on local
priorities. The programme has subsequently been refined to incorporate this
feedback, ensuring alignment with both community expectations and Council
objectives.
3.4 The
projects included in the Community Parks Rolling Renewal Programme are as
follows:
· Waimaero
Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewood Local Play Space Renewals (#73983)
· Community Parks -
Planned Play Item Renewals (#64749)
· Community Parks
Green Asset Renewals (#43687)
· Community Parks Hard
Surface Renewals (#43686 - Footpaths and Carparks)
· Individual projects
containing play space, green or hard surface asset renewals.
4. Background/Context Te Horopaki
4.1 During the deliberation of
the FY2024–25 Annual Plan, elected members expressed concerns about the
lack of visibility into individual renewal candidates within the Parks Rolling
Renewal Programmes. In response, the Parks Unit committed to visiting all
Community Boards annually to gather feedback on the proposed Rolling Renewal
Programmes.
4.2 Last year staff presented
the draft Parks Rolling Renewal Programmes to seek feedback on the plan.
Requested alternations by the community board members were implemented.
4.3 To enhance transparency in
the rolling renewal programme, staff amended the process so that the programme
can be formally agreed once all requested alterations have been implemented.
4.4 Staff
attended the Waimaero Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewood Workshop on 25 August 2025 to
present the draft Community Park Rolling Renewal Programme (Attachment B). The
board was given one month to submit feedback on the programme, including any
suggested amendments.
4.5 Staff received two amendment requests:
4.5.1 Include Elmwood Park playground to the Play Space Renewal Programme.
This has been added to the FY29 programme.
4.5.2 Pinehurst Reserve playground has been brought forward by one year,
from FY28–FY29 to FY27–FY28. To accommodate this change, Ashcroft
Reserve play space renewal has been deferred by one year, from FY27–FY28
to FY28–FY29.

1. Purpose and Origin of the Report Te Pūtake Pūrongo
1.1 The purpose of this report is to seek a
resolution under Section 111 of the Reserves Act 1977 for the dedication of
Local Purpose Reserve (Road), described as 3R Tulett Park Drive Lot 160 DP 499649 Certificate of Title 768569, as road.
Attachment A
1.2 In 2018 a subdivision was undertaken which created a Local Purpose
Reserve (Road) to allow for the future construction of Tulett
Park Drive- Lot 160 DP 499649 Certificate of Title
768569. Attachment B
1.3 Adjacent land has now been subdivided under resource consent RMA/2021/3245/A,
which requires Lot 160 DP 499649 Certificate of Title 768569 to be formed as
road and vested in Council. Attachment C
1.4 The road is now formed over the Local Purpose
Reserve (Road) and therefore requires dedication as a road. Attachment D
2. Officer Recommendations Ngā
Tūtohu
That the
Waimāero Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewood Community Board recommend that
Council:
1. Receives the information in the Dedication of Local Purpose
Reserve (Road) 3 R Tulett Park Drive Casebrook Report.
2. Notes that the decision in this report is
assessed as low significance based on the Christchurch City Council’s
Significance and Engagement Policy.
3. Resolves pursuant to Section 111 of the
Reserves Act 1977 to dedicate the Local Purpose Reserve (Road) containing
203m² described as 3R Tulett
Park Drive Lot 160 DP 499649 Certificate of Title 768569 as
road.
4. Authorises the Manager Property Consultancy to
take all steps necessary to complete all necessary documentation to conclude
the dedication of Lot 160 DP
499649 Certificate of Title 768569 as road.
3. Executive Summary Te Whakarāpopoto Matua
3.1 When vacant land is being
developed, consideration is given to future roading patterns for adjacent areas
that have not yet been developed.
3.2 This
is achieved by the developer providing an allotment which vests in Christchurch
City Council as Local Purpose Reserve (Road).
3.3 The
land remains in this status until such time as adjoining land is developed.
3.4 For
Tulett Park Drive Lot 160 DP 499649 Certificate of
Title 768569 was vested as Local Purpose Reserve (Road) and remained in
grass.
3.5 The
adjoining land is being subdivided which requires the Local Purpose Reserve
(Road) to be formed and vested as road in order to provide a through road.
3.6 The recommendation in this
report to Council, if adopted, will allow for the legalisation of the Local
Purpose Reserve (Road) as road.
4. Background/Context Te Horopaki
4.1 Tulett Park Drive is located within the suburb of Casebrook between
Claridges and Styx Mill Road 1.7km west of state highway 74 (Main North Road).
4.2 As undeveloped land is subdivided, roads are progressively formed
and vested in Christchurch City Council.
4.3 When
subdivision of land is staged, allowance must be made for future connectivity
of roads to adjoining land.
4.4 This
is achieved by the subdivider providing land which vests in Council as Local
Purpose Reserve (Road) and would be formed when the adjoining land is
subdivided.
4.5 At
the end of Tulett Park Drive is Lot 160 DP 499649 which
vested in Christchurch City Council as Local Purpose Reserve (Road) to separate
Tulett Park Drive and vacant land to the North.
4.6 In 2021 resource consent RMA/2021/3245/A
was granted for the development of this vacant land.
4.7 The Local Purpose Reserve (Road) to be formed to enable Tulett Park
Drive to be a through Road. Attachment C shows a photo of the site as it
was prior to the road being constructed, and a recent photo showing the road
being formed.
4.8 The
adoption of the resolution in this report will allow the legalisation of the
Local Purpose Reserve (Road)as road.

8. Approves that these resolutions take effect
when parking signage and/or road markings that evidence the restrictions
described in this staff report are in place (or removed in the case of
revocations).
3. Executive Summary Te Whakarāpopoto Matua
3.1 Safety
concerns have been raised by residents of the Parkstone Retirement Village due
to restricted visibility when vehicles are parking near the main vehicle
crossing on Athol Terrace. Implementing the noted recommendations will
lead to a reduction in the risk of a crash by improving sightlines for exiting
vehicles.
3.2 The
recommended option is to install no stopping restrictions in accordance with
Attachment A.
3.3 The
recommendations in this report will help to achieve the desired community
outcome of a well-connected and accessible city through improved road safety.
3.4 Options
within this report have been assessed against relevant industry-standard design
guidance including the sight distance requirements.
4. Background/Context Te Horopaki
4.1 Athol
Terrace is a collector road within the suburb of Ilam.
4.2 Athol
Terrace is on the boundary between the Waimairi and Riccarton wards. The
northeastern side of Athol Terrace is within the Waipuna Halswell Hornby
Riccarton Community Board area, and the southwestern side of Athol Terrace is
within the Waimaero Fendalton Waimairi Harewood Community Board area.
4.3 The
Parkstone Retirement Village is a large complex providing a range of
accommodation and care services for the elderly. As a result, this site is
anticipated to have a higher proportion of elderly and visitors, who may be
unfamiliar with the area when utilising the main vehicle crossing.
4.4 The
Retirement Village is undergoing a redevelopment at present which will increase
the number of residents, staff, service and visitor vehicle movements.
4.5 Visibility
can be limited for vehicles exiting the main Retirement Village vehicle
crossing onto Athol Terrace if vehicles are parking close to the main vehicle
crossing. Site visits have been undertaken to view the situation. Typically,
parking demand within this area is relatively low at present but is likely to
change as the site develops.
4.6 There
is an existing P15 parking restriction on the southwestern side of Athol
Terrace, which is understood to be a remnant from when the site was a carpet
factory. This provides short stay parking opportunities to the immediate area,
while discouraging longer stay parking.
4.7 Whilst
functional, this parking restriction is now considered out of context, and it
would benefit from being included within a forthcoming broader review of
parking restrictions in the area surrounding the University of Canterbury.
Typically, an area such as this would have a P120 parking restriction on one
side and unrestricted parking on the other. However, in the interests of
progressing the ‘no stopping’ restriction it is recommended that
the remaining P15 are left in place at this time.
4.8 There
has been one reported crash in the last five years in the vicinity of the
retirement village entrances. This crash is unrelated to the visibility
concerns.
4.9 A
traffic count was undertaken to assist in further assessing risk and priority
for this project, both of which are considered low. The average daily traffic
volume was 3508 vehicles per day, and the average and 85 percentile speeds
32.0km/h and 36.9 km/h respectively.
4.10 Ongoing
site visits have not indicated a significant change in the level of risk and
priority, but given the ongoing community interest, and site development being
underway, improvements are recommended.
4.11 If approved, the recommendations will be implemented within the
current financial year (generally around four weeks after the contractor
receives the request, but this is subject to other factors such as resourcing
and prioritisation beyond Council’s control).

Disadvantages
· Does not
address requests to improve visibility at the main vehicle crossing.
· Does not
future proof this location for increased usage.
· Does not align
the P15 parking restrictions with current best practice for these situations.

6.7 Requests
were received from Parkstone Retirement Village to improve visibility at their
main vehicle crossing.
6.8 Traffic
Operations staff met with residents and management of Parkstone Retirement
Village to discuss the access concerns and to consider options.
6.9 A
consultation plan was developed (see attachment B) which addressed the concerns
about the visibility. It also took the opportunity to propose changes to the
existing P15 parking restriction to better align these spaces with best
practice.
6.10 In
April 2025 property owners and residents in the immediate vicinity were
consulted by way of a letter drop and mailout to absentee owners. It was also
circulated by the Retirement Village.
6.11 Responses
were received from four stakeholders. These comprised a representative of the
Retirement Village residents, the Retirement Village manager, and the owners of
two properties opposite the Retirement Village.
6.12 Follow
up correspondence with respondents was undertaken to seek clarification of the
issues raised. Ongoing site visits have occurred since to establish the extent
and frequency of these.
6.13 Support
for the no stopping and proposed P120 parking restrictions was received from
the representative of the retirement village residents. Concern was however
raised about the proposed hours of operation, in particular the presence of
unrestricted parking during the weekend and evenings. In practice, the existing
P15 parking restrictions operate on standard hours of 8am- 6pm Monday- Sunday,
which allow for unrestricted overnight parking.
6.14 The
Manager of the Retirement Village acknowledged the consultation and advised
they had circulated to the working group, and would advise the wider Village.
6.15 The
owner of one property opposite objected to the proposal due to the following
reasons:
6.15.1 Traffic volume
on Athol Terrace
6.15.2 View that with
vehicles parking on both sides that Athol Terrace is reduced to one lane due to
the existing kerb and dish channel.
6.15.3 Lack of
enforcement of the existing P15 parking restrictions.
6.15.4 Don’t
support the proposed P120.
6.15.5 Visitors and
staff of the Retirement Village should be accommodated on site.
6.15.6 Council must
address safety for cyclists and remove the parking on the southwestern side of
Athol Terrace.
6.16 The
owners of another property opposite objected to the proposal due to:
6.16.1 Their belief it
was a “dangerous proposal”.
6.16.2 It would turn
Athol Terrace into a one lane road as two cars can’t travel down the
street (due to parked vehicles).

6.18 In
the interests of progressing the proposed no stopping restrictions at the

no stopping restrictions, but not to make changes to the P15 parking
restriction, at this point in time. This is reflected in the preferred option
(Attachment A).

the Christchurch City Council’s Significance and Engagement Policy. The
level of significance was determined by the low level of impact and low number
of people affected by the recommended decision.
2. Officer Recommendations Ngā
Tūtohu
That the Waimāero
Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewood Community Board:
1. Receives the information in the Clyde Road Parking Restrictions Report.
2. Notes that the decision in this report are
assessed as low significance based on the Christchurch City Council’s Significance and
Engagement Policy.
3. Revokes any previous resolutions pertaining to
traffic controls made pursuant to any bylaw to the extent that they are in
conflict with the parking or stopping restrictions described in resolutions 4
below.
4. Approves that the parking of all
vehicles be restricted to a maximum period of 3 minutes, in accordance with
Clause 8 of the Christchurch City Council Traffic & Parking Bylaw 2017, on
the east side of Clyde Road commencing at a point 211 metres north of its
intersection with Fendalton Road and extending in an northerly direction for a
distance of 45 metres as detailed in Attachment A (TG151649,
Issue 1, dated 01/09/2025). This is to apply between 8:30am – 9:30am
and 2:30pm – 3:30pm on School Days Only.
5. Approves that these resolutions take effect
when parking signage and/or road markings that evidence the restrictions
described in this staff report are in place.
3. Executive Summary Te Whakarāpopoto Matua
3.1 This report recommends the conversion of existing P1 parking
restrictions on Clyde Road adjacent to Tūora Fendalton School to P3
parking restrictions during pick-up and drop-off times on school days only.
3.2 Currently, P1 parking restrictions are in place from 8:30am
– 9:30am and 2:30pm – 3:30pm on school days only.
3.3 The recommended option is to install P3 restrictions in accordance
with Attachment A.
3.4 This report recommends adjusting parking restrictions to more
practical timeframes, improving ease of use and enforcement of Council
on-street parking facilities.
4. Background/Context Te Horopaki
4.1 P1 parking restrictions are currently in place on Clyde Road
adjacent to Tūora Fendalton School.
4.2 In some cases, including on Clyde Road outside of Tūora
Fendalton School, P1 parking restrictions have been found to be impractical for
users and enforcement.
4.3 This report is part of ongoing work to convert some existing P1
parking restrictions near schools to P3 parking restrictions.
4.4 Approval is required by the Waimāero
Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewood Community Board.
4.5 If approved, the recommendations will be implemented within the
current financial year (generally around four weeks after the contractor
receives the request, but this is subject to other factors such as resourcing
and prioritisation beyond Council’s control).
Options Considered Ngā Kōwhiringa Whaiwhakaaro
4.6 The following reasonably practicable options were considered and are
assessed in this report:
4.6.1 Convert
existing P1 parking restrictions on Clyde Road adjacent to Tūora Fendalton

1. Purpose and Origin of the Report Te Pūtake Pūrongo
1.1 The
purpose of this report is to seek the approval of the Waimāero
Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewood Community Board to apply time restrictions to the
angled parking spaces fronting 104 Staveley Street.
1.2 This
report has been written after receiving feedback from one of the owners of the
business at 104 Staveley Street, who raised concerns about a potential increase
in on-street parking demand following the completion of a nearby residential
development.
1.3 The recommended option is to
apply P120 parking restrictions to 13 of the 14 existing angled parking spaces
outside 104 Staveley Street as shown in Attachment A.
2. Officer Recommendations Ngā
Tūtohu
That the Waimāero
Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewood Community Board:
1. Receives the information in the Proposed P120 Parking Restrictions - Staveley

2. Notes that the decision in this report are
assessed as low significance based on the Christchurch City Council’s Significance and
Engagement Policy.
3. Under Clause 6(2) of the Christchurch City
Council Traffic and Parking Bylaw 2017 revokes any previous resolutions
pertaining to traffic controls made pursuant to any bylaw to the extent that
they are in conflict with the parking or stopping restrictions described in
resolutions 0 and 0 below.
4. Approves that, in accordance with Clause 7 of
the Christchurch City Council Traffic and Parking Bylaw 2017, a bicycle parking
area is resolved on the northern side of Staveley Street, commencing at a point
62 metres east of its intersection with Withells Road and extending in an
easterly direction for a distance of three metres as detailed in Attachment
A (TG151651, Issue 1, dated 25/11/2025).
5. Approves that, in accordance with Clause 7 of
the Christchurch City Council Traffic and Parking Bylaw 2017, the parking of
vehicles be restricted to a maximum period of 120 minutes, and be further restricted by way of 60 degree
angle parking, on the northern
side of Staveley Street, commencing at a point 67 metres east of its
intersection with Withells Road and extending in an easterly direction for a
distance of 39 metres as detailed in Attachment A (TG151651, Issue 1,
dated 25/11/2025).
6. Approves that these resolutions take effect
when parking signage and/or road markings that evidence the restrictions
described in this staff report are in place (or removed in the case of
revocations).
3. Executive Summary Te Whakarāpopoto Matua
3.1 Multiple
shops and businesses are currently operating at 104 Staveley Street, generating
ongoing demand for convenient customer parking.
3.2 Customers
previously relied on the private section at 100 Staveley Street for parking.
However, this area is now being redeveloped into a residential facility and
will no longer be available for public use.
3.3 With
this off-street parking option removed, customers are expected to rely more
heavily on the on-street parking spaces nearby.
3.4 These
nearby on-street parking spaces may also be occupied for extended periods by
future residents of the new development at 100 Staveley Street, further
reducing the availability of short-stay parking for business customers.
3.5 The
recommended option is to apply P120 parking restrictions to 13 of the 14
existing angled parking spaces outside 104 Staveley Street and reserving the
space immediately west of the angled parking spaces for bicycle parking as
shown in Attachment A.
3.6 The
recommendations in this report will help increase parking turnover, thereby
better supporting the needs of the local businesses and their customers.
4. Background/Context Te Horopaki
4.1 Staveley
Street is located in the Avonhead suburb of Christchurch. 100 Staveley Street
and 104 Staveley Street are situated near the western end of the street, close
to its intersection with Withells Road, and are approximately 1.6 km from the
University of Canterbury’s Dovedale Campus.
4.2 Multiple
shops and small businesses operate from the commercial units at 104 Staveley
Street. These activities generate a consistent demand for short stay parking
close to the premises, as customers typically require convenient access for
quick visits, purchases, or appointments.
4.3 Historically,
customers of these businesses made use of the vacant section at 100 Staveley
Street for parking. This off-street area provided additional capacity and
helped absorb peak-time demand, reducing pressure on the on-street parking
spaces nearby.
4.4 The
section at 100 Staveley Street is now being redeveloped into a residential
facility. As a result, the informal parking previously available to customers
is longer accessible to the public.
4.5 With
the removal of this off-street parking opportunity, customers now rely on the
surrounding on-street parking spaces.
4.6 Future
residents of the new development at 100 Staveley Street may also utilise these
same on-street spaces, often for longer durations. This may further reduce the
availability of convenient short-stay parking for customers visiting the
businesses at 104 Staveley Street.
4.7 Given the importance of maintaining accessible short-stay parking to
support these local businesses, it is appropriate to review the existing
parking arrangements and consider measures that improve turnover and maintain
parking availability for customers.
4.8 The
recommended option is to introduce P120 parking restrictions to 13 of the 14
existing angled parking spaces outside 104 Staveley Street, as shown in Attachment
A.
4.9 The
remaining space at the western end contains a fire hydrant and may only be
legally used when a driver stays with the vehicle. Applying a time restriction
to this space would be inconsistent with the parking rules that apply to
vehicles when parking over fire hydrants.
4.10 The
recommended option also includes reserving the space immediately west of the
angled parking spaces for bicycle parking.
Options Considered Ngā Kōwhiringa Whaiwhakaaro
4.11 The
following reasonably practicable options were considered and are assessed in
this report:
4.11.1 Apply P120
parking restrictions to 13 of the 14 existing angled parking spaces outside 104
Staveley Street and formalise bicycle parking at the western end.
4.11.2 Do Nothing.
Options Descriptions Ngā Kōwhiringa
4.12 Preferred
Option: Apply P120 parking restrictions to 13 of the 14 existing angled
parking spaces outside 104 Staveley Street and formalise bicycle parking at the
western end.
4.12.1 Option
Description: Vehicles can park for a maximum of 120 minutes in 13 of the 14
existing on-street angled parking spaces outside 104 Staveley Street. This
restriction will apply between the hours of 8am and 6pm on all days other than
public holidays.
A fire hydrant is located in the
westernmost parking space, which may only be used when a driver remains with
the vehicle. Introducing a time-restriction for this space would conflict with
the existing legal requirements governing parking over fire hydrants.
4.12.2 Option
Advantages
· Helps prevent
all day parking and increases turnover, thereby improving the availability of
convenient short-stay spaces in close proximity for customers visiting the
businesses at 104 Staveley Street.
4.12.3 Option
Disadvantages
· Reduces the
number of unrestricted on-street parking spaces.
4.13 Option
2: Do Nothing
4.13.1 Option
Description: Do Nothing
4.13.2 Option
Advantages
· Unrestricted
on-street parking would be available in this part of Staveley Street.
4.13.3 Option
Disadvantages
· Could
encourage all-day parking, thereby reducing turnover and limiting the
availability of convenient short-stay spaces in close proximity for customers
visiting the businesses at 104 Staveley Street.

Community
Impacts and Views Ngā Mariu ā-Hāpori
6.8 Prior
to formal consultation, staff attempted to gather early feedback from the
business owners at 104 Staveley Street. One business owner agreed to discuss
the proposed parking restrictions with the other businesses. They advised that
there was general support for a P120 limit. While one of the business owners
initially preferred a shorter restriction (5 minutes), they ultimately agreed
that P120 was the most suitable option. Other shops / businesses were also
supportive once they understood the potential impact of long-term parking from
the new development.
6.9 Following
this, a letter summarising the proposal, along with a plan was sent to the
affected property owners, business owners and residents.
6.10 Six
submissions were received during the formal consultation period.
6.11 Three
submitters expressed support for the proposal. In addition to their support,
they also provided the following feedback and requests:
6.11.1 Submitters
requested that P120 parking restrictions also be applied to the on-street
spaces outside 101 Staveley Street. They noted that the three residential units
at this address are designated for occupants aged over 60 or for people with
disabilities, and that carers regularly visit the site. Convenient short-stay
parking in close proximity was therefore preferred. Submitters also expressed
concern that, due to 101 Staveley Street being located directly opposite the
new residential development, these spaces may otherwise be occupied for longer
periods—potentially by new residents—reducing the availability of
suitable parking for carers.
6.11.2 That one of the
existing on-street angled parking spaces be designated as a mobility car park
to provide better access for users with mobility challenges.
6.12 Staff
consider it appropriate to first monitor the effects of the proposed P120
restrictions before introducing any additional measures. Introducing further
controls at this stage, including mobility parking, may potentially result in
over-restricting the area and unnecessarily limiting parking flexibility for
users. Once the initial restrictions are in place, staff can review their
impact and, if parking pressures continue or new issues arise, further changes
can be investigated if required.
6.13 Three
submitters opposed the proposal:
6.13.1 One of them
felt that time-restricted parking was unnecessary in this location, noting that
in their experience vehicles typically do not stay in the angled parking spaces
for more than 20 minutes. They were concerned that introducing time limits
could set a precedent for other locations and saw the proposal as unnecessary
and overly restrictive.
6.13.2 Two other
residents who opposed the proposed P120 restriction expressed concern that the
new development will result in additional vehicles parking on-street, leading
to significant congestion in the surrounding area. They felt that the proposed
P120 restriction would negatively affect nearby businesses—many of which
rely on short visits and operate beyond 6pm—and would also not
sufficiently support residents’ parking needs.
As an alternative, they suggested
applying a P30 restriction (8am–8:30pm) to the eight angled spaces
closest to Withells Road to support business turnover, while leaving the
remaining angled spaces unrestricted to provide longer-stay parking for residents.
They also requested improved enforcement options for illegal parking occurring
outside standard enforcement hours.
6.14 The area
immediately west of the angled parking spaces has been setup to function as a
bicycle parking zone. However, no clear signage or pavement markings are
currently present to indicate this intended use. Following consultation, an
internal review identified the need to formally designate this space for
bicycle parking and to install appropriate signage.
The plan sent out for consultation did not indicate any
signage for bicycle parking. Given the current layout, the space is unlikely to
be suitable for any purpose other than bicycle parking. As this change simply
formalises the intended use and represents a minor modification, staff
considered that re-consultation was not required.
6.15 The
consultation plan included a P120 time-limit sign at both the start and end of
the proposed restriction, along with a repeater P120 sign located between them.
During an internal review, staff determined that the repeater sign was
unnecessary, based on Waka Kotahi NZTA guidelines and the existing road
environment. As a result, the repeater sign has been removed from the final
plan.
6.16 The
Team Leader Parking Compliance supports the preferred option.
6.17 There
is ongoing communication with one of the adjacent business owners regarding
vehicles using the pedestrian area east of the shops. This is a separate
matter, and investigations are currently in progress to determine an
appropriate way forward. It does not affect the current proposal, which only
applies time restrictions to the angled parking spaces at this location.
6.18 The
decision affects the following wards/Community Board areas:
6.18.1 Waimāero
Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewood Community Board.
Impact

decision does not involve a matter of interest to Mana Whenua and will not
impact on our agreed partnership priorities with Ngā Papatipu

Change Impact Considerations Ngā Whai Whakaaro mā te Āhuarangi

proposal in this report is unlikely to contribute significantly to adaptation

6.17 This
is a minor proposal that is primarily aimed at addressing concerns related to
on-street parking demand at this location. Due to the minor nature of the
works, it is not expected to have any impact on climate change.
7. Next Steps Ngā Mahinga ā-muri
7.1 If approved, the recommendations will be implemented within the
current financial year (generally around four weeks after the contractor
receives the request, but this is subject to other factors such as resourcing
and prioritisation beyond Council’s control).

3. Background/Context Te Horopaki
3.1 The
staff recommendation is that Board meetings be held at 4.30pm on the third
Monday of each calendar month (excluding January), but earlier in December to
avoid meeting on the week of Christmas. Exceptions are made where necessary to
avoid public holidays. In addition to the decision-making Board meetings,
allowance will be made for information sharing sessions/workshops on the first
Monday of the month or at the end of ordinary Board meetings. These will only
occur on an as-required basis. These sessions provide an opportunity for Board
members to receive information and have an informal discussion on issues where
no decision is required at the time.
3.2 It
has been the Board’s practice to establish a Board Recess Committee,
comprising at least two Board members, with authority to make any needed
decision(s) on the Board’s behalf over the Christmas/New Year period.
This would only be exercised in the case of urgent business which cannot wait
until ordinary meetings commence for the year. During the 2022-25 term the
Recess Committee did not need to meet, but it is a helpful option if any urgent
matters arise.
3.3 The
Community Board’s regular practice for managing submissions is to appoint
a Submissions Committee. Because the majority of submissions are on Council
projects, it would be inappropriate for Councillors to participate in forming
submissions as this would create a perception of pretermination and bias when
voting on the matter at the Council table. Establishing a separate Submissions
Committee that does not involve Councillors mitigates this risk.
3.4 Each
triennium, Community Boards routinely appoint members to various local
organisations. This important liaison role enables two-way contact and
information sharing between the Board member(s) appointed and community
organisations on behalf of the Board. In some cases the appointment is also
required by an Act of Parliament, Trust Deed, or decision of Council.
4. Context / Background / Te Horopaki
4.1 The
decisions in this report are of low significance concerning the Christchurch
City Council’s Significance and Engagement Policy.
4.2 Clause
30, Schedule 7 of the Local Government Act 2002 inter alia, provides that
community boards may appoint committees, subcommittees or other subordinate
decision-making bodies and joint committees considered appropriate. Also,
clause 32(3) of the same schedule provides for community boards to delegate
powers to a committee.
4.1 For
its 2022-25 Term, the Waimāero Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewood Community Board
made the following appointments:

4.2 A
brief summary of the organisations is as follows:
|
Organisation
|
Reason for
Appointing
|
Description
|
|
Riccarton
Bush Trust
|
The Trust is
governed by an Act of Parliament requiring the Council to appoint various
members to the Trust. The Council has delegated one of those appointments to
this Community Board.
|
The Riccarton
Bush Trust exists to protect and promote Riccarton Bush, Riccarton House,
Deans Cottage and their grounds.
|
|
Airport Noise
Liaison Committee
|
The
Christchurch District Plan requires Christchurch International Airport Ltd to
establish an Airport Noise Liaison Committee, with the membership including
two Community Board members.
|
The role of
the Committee is to:
· Consider and make
recommendations to the airport on community concerns related to aircraft
operations and engine testing
· Liaise with the
community on relevant noise matters
· Assist with the
review of the Airport Noise Management Plan, Acoustic Treatment Programme,
and noise complaint procedures.
|
|
Keep
Christchurch Beautiful Committee
|
The Keep
Christchurch Beautiful Society’s constitution provides for at least one
member representing each Community Board. The Society has indicated a
preference for each Board to appoint two members.
|
Keep
Christchurch Beautiful aims to promote a cleaner, more beautiful environment
for Christchurch City. The organisation supports a range of initiatives
including education programmes, attending community events and organising
community clean up days.
|
|
McLean
Institute
|
The Institute
is governed by an Act of Parliament which stipulates that the Mayor of
Christchurch shall be a trustee, but may nominate another person to act in
his place.
In practice,
the Council has authorised this Community Board to make that appointment.
|
The Institute
exists to provide assistance to, and promote the welfare of, disadvantaged
women. The Institute holds various investments stemming from the estate of
Allan McLean who left an endowment in his will.
The Institute
founded the Holly Lea retirement village in Fendalton. Although the Institute
has since divested its ownership of the village, the historic connection with
this area is why the Council wanted a member from the local Community Board
to be appointed as a Trustee.
|
|
Waimakariri-Eyre-Cust
River Rating District Liaison Committee
|
The Committee
is established by Environment Canterbury, who have requested the appointment
of a Community Board Member.
|
The River
Rating District Laision Committees exist to provide a direct line of
communication between local communities and the Regional Council on matters
relating to river control works and flood protection.

3. Community Support, Governance and Partnership Activity
3.1 Community Governance Projects
3.1.1 Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewood
Youth Hui
Facilitated by Tim Perry from Rerenga Awa
- Canterbury Youth Workers Collective, the Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewood Youth
Hui brought together over 20 representatives from schools, youth trusts, and
community organisations, including Burnside High 24/7 Youth Workers,
Christchurch City Mission, Belfast Community Network, Asian Community
Transformation Trust, PYDT, Rangatahi Bryndwr Trust, St Christopher’s
Church and more.
Participants highlighted the positive
impact of youth workers in schools, including mentoring, wellbeing support,
leadership activities, and connecting students with community opportunities.
Their work helps create safe, supportive spaces where young people feel
empowered, heard, and connected. However, the current ratio of youth workers to
students is extremely high, making it difficult to meet students’ needs.
The number of youth workers in the wider community has also declined, both due
to funding challenges.
The hui celebrated local youth
initiatives, such as the Breakfast Club, youth groups, and events at Sheldon
Park. At the same time, it was noted that some community spaces, particularly
Jellie Park and its skate bowl, are underused because young people do not feel
safe. This highlights a clear need for investment in safe, welcoming and
activating spaces. Key challenges discussed included mental health pressures,
social media harm, exam stress, poverty, safety concerns, and limited access to
activities and transport.
As part of the hui, participants
contributed to exercises mapping the youth space, which helped identify gaps,
overlaps, and opportunities for collaboration.
From these discussions, several
opportunities and priority areas were identified:
· Youth Worker
Shortage - Advocate for more Youth Workers in schools and the community.
· Mental Health &
Wellbeing - Strengthen support through peer programmes and school initiatives.
· Youth Engagement
& Voice - Create regular input opportunities and strengthen connections
with migrant youth.
· Safety &
Security - Improve lighting, traffic safety, and activation of public spaces.
· Accessible &
Inclusive Spaces - Develop safe, welcoming venues for teens and after-school
“chill” spaces and explore transport solutions.
· Life Skills &
Intergenerational Connection - Support programmes that build practical skills,
hobbies, and intergenerational relationships.
· Recognition &
Empowerment - Celebrate youth leadership, volunteering, and community
contributions.
· Evidence &
Advocacy - Use surveys, focus groups, and youth voice to inform priorities and
funding cases.
The hui closed with agreement to
establish a regular annual hui. Options for ongoing collaboration include
online forums, working groups, and feedback to inform future hui and
initiatives. The insights gathered will guide Council collaboration and advocacy
and support initiatives to ensure young people across
Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewood continue to feel supported, connected, and
empowered.
3.1.2 Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewood
Community Liaison Meeting
The October Community Liaison Meeting was
held at Fendalton Library and Service Centre, with around 22 attendees
representing 16 local organisations, community groups, and service providers.
Lisa Gregory, Community Recreation
Advisor and our team’s event guru, shared timely insights on event
planning, vendor management, and community engagement, emphasising early
planning, clear task lists, and post-event evaluation as the event season
approaches. She also highlighted the upcoming Kia Rite Hoea Workshop, offering
practical tools, templates, and expert advice for community groups, schools,
and sports clubs.
Karen Boag, Community Development
Advisor, provided a summary of recent Youth Hui outcomes.
Natalie Dally, Community Development
Advisor, led a session on cultural connections and inclusivity, focusing on
embedding Te Tiriti o Waitangi principles and engaging diverse communities.
Participants shared examples of supporting Māori, migrant, and other
communities through programmes, workshops, translated resources, and inclusive
practices. Training and support needs for future workshops were also
identified.
Karen also facilitated discussion on
priorities for 2026 Hui and workshops. Suggestions included:
· Multicultural and
ethnic community engagement
· Practical budgeting
tools and guidance on accessing support services
· Creative solutions
to service closures and reduced resources
· Community asset
mapping
· Parenting support
and resource connections
· Youth employment and
relationship support
· Increased
opportunities for older adults
Karen provided an update that the Funding
Hui is planned for March 2026, and the next stage of Emergency Response work
will support specific areas with local planning.
The meeting concluded with updates on
upcoming activities, including foot clinics, fairs, Trunk or Treat events,
active exercise classes, financial mentoring, and community seminars.
The next gathering will be the Thank You
Breakfast on Thursday, 27 November 2025. Board members are warmly invited to
attend and show appreciation to the groups.
3.1.3 Burnside
Park Tennis Club Centenary Celebrations
The club began in 1925 as Fendalton
Tennis Club, with 5 courts on land at 43 Burnside Road, now called Memorial
Avenue. In 1976 it moved to Burnside Park where 10 courts were established and
in 2006 it changed its name to Burnside Park Tennis Club to better reflect its
location.
Past and present members joined together
on Friday30 October 2025 for a centenary dinner at the Commodore. The
evening was friendly and lively as old friendships were revived and memories
shared. Speakers recounted key moments in the history of the club and its
people, and pianist Anria Breytenbach entertained the guests on her keyboard.
On Saturday afternoon on-court activities
were held at the club with fun tennis drills and the opportunity to try out
pickleball. Once again past and present members mingled and reminisced.
David James, Club President, welcomed everyone including Mayor Phil Mauger and
Councillor Sam McDonald. Brief speeches were made, the BBQ was fired up and the
centenary cake was cut by Robyn Campbell (Life member) and Joe Keller (a Past
President).
It was a wonderful weekend, celebrating
the past 100 years and also looking to the future. Burnside Park Tennis Club
has an enviable location, top quality courts. superb facilities and a friendly
and welcoming community.
3.1.4 Burnside
Bryndwr Community Network Hui - November 2025
Around 30 people gathered at Tuiā
Burnside Primary School on Tuesday, 4 November, for the annual Burnside Bryndwr
Community Network (BBCN) Hui. The evening brought together a mix of residents,
community groups, sports clubs, community board members, and representatives
from both local and central organisations.
The Hui provided an opportunity to share
updates on recent projects and look ahead to plans. Highlights included the
launch of the new BBCN website and Facebook page, updates on the Bryndwr Banter
newsletter and Burnside Directory, and reflections on the first-ever Kia Ora
Bryndwr - Connect with Kai. Planning is already underway to bring the event
back to Bryndwr in February 2026, as well as to create a new event in Burnside
called Kia Ora Burnside - Connect@Kendal.
The network continues to focus on
strengthening connections, enhancing wellbeing, and celebrating the diversity
of the Burnside and Bryndwr communities. A key focus for the group is
BBCN’s formalisation, ensuring long-term sustainability. Work is underway
to explore structure options, including establishing a Trust or an Incorporated
Society. Early in 2026, a survey will be conducted with stakeholders to guide
decisions, with the target of implementing a formal structure by early 2027.
This process aims to strengthen the network’s foundation and support
future growth.
Community Development Advisor, Karen
Boag, shared early insights from the BBCN Community Engagement Project, which
gathered feedback from residents and young people through surveys, focus
groups, and interviews. Emerging themes include the importance of connection,
communication, and participation in community life. These findings will guide
the working group’s planning for the year ahead.
Guest speakers included Elissa Smith from
Neighbourhood Support, who spoke about safety initiatives and community
resilience, and Peter Hay from the Burnside Park Users Group, who provided an
update on the group’s work exploring more sustainable and collaborative
approaches for local sports clubs and community use of Burnside Park
facilities.
The evening closed with an invitation for
attendees to stay connected through BBCN’s communication channels and to
continue working together to make Burnside and Bryndwr safe, welcoming, and
vibrant places to live.

3.1.5 Nepal
Reserve Planting Day
On Monday, 29 September, over 100
residents, including families, older adults, high school students, and Scouts,
gathered for the Nepal Reserve Community Planting Day. Together, they planted
more than 1,500 native trees and shrubs as part of the reserve’s second
planting phase, contributing to a growing native corridor that supports
wildlife and strengthens the local environment.
Organised by the City Council’s
Urban Forest Team with support from Community Parks, Community Park Rangers,
the Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewood Community Governance Team, and Fire and
Emergency NZ (FENZ), the event ran smoothly. It provided a welcoming, engaging
experience for everyone. The teamwork between these groups ensured the planting
day was both productive and enjoyable.
The FENZ Community Hub and fire engine
visit were highlights, offering fire safety education and hands-on learning
about fire-smart planting and the flammability of native species. Families
especially enjoyed the opportunity to use the hose to water the new plantings,
a memorable moment for children and adults alike.
A free sausage sizzle and fresh fruit
were provided for volunteers and staff at 11:30 am, creating a relaxed space to
take a break, refuel, and chat with neighbours. The FENZ Community Hub provided
shade and a place to learn about home fire safety checks, and five lucky
attendees received free smoke alarms, adding a practical safety benefit to the
day.
Throughout the event, Council staff from
the Community Parks and Urban Forest teams demonstrated planting techniques and
offered hands-on guidance to ensure everyone could take part confidently. The
friendly, inclusive atmosphere helped make the day as much about community
connection as conservation.
Thanks to the community’s
enthusiasm and teamwork, the planting was completed ahead of schedule, a true
testament to the local spirit and collaboration that made the event such a
success.
Looking ahead, Stage Three of the
planting is planned for the next planting season. A group of enthusiastic
residents has already expressed interest in forming a “Friends of the
Reserve” group to support the Council in caring for the new planting.
This partnership will help ensure the native corridor continues to thrive and
that Nepal Reserve remains a vibrant, welcoming space for the whole community.

a sausage!
