For more details on what impact this increase will have on individual ratepayers, see the table on page 15. Operations The total operating expenditure, the cost necessary to provide the services and facilities operated by the Christchurch Council for the year ending 30 June 1999, is $227.66M. Christchurch ratepayers are required to contribute a total of $120.06M towards this cost. The balance will be paid for by revenues from these activities, interest and dividends earned by the Council through its ownership of enterprises such as Southpower, the Lyttelton Port Company and Christchurch International Airport Company. Capital Improvements The total capital expenditure, the cost necessary to pay for new assets or to renew or upgrade the existing assets provided by the Council for the year ending 30 June 1999 is $96.47M. These improvements and developments will be paid for through cash surpluses on operations, utilising Council reserves and from external funding. A full summary of the capital and operating income and expenditure for 1998/99, along with forecasts for each year through until 2007/08, is on page 11. Contents of the Plan The Council is committed to improving the quality of life in Christchurch by ensuring the services it provides make a positive contribution. The Council is working towards this objective by: • Spending $1.5M on kerbside recycling. • Promoting the Central City by introducing a free bus service on Saturdays between 10.00 am and 5.00 pm during the summer period and a complimentary parking voucher scheme (total $310,000). • Promoting cycling and cycle safety by providing $270,000 for this purpose. • Contribute $4M over a 3 year period towards the redevelopment of Lancaster Park. • Upgrading the QE II Facility. Increased from 1997/98 to implement the Assst Management Plan. • Completing the Pioneer Pool development. • Completing the Centennial Pool development. • Completing the WestpacTrust Entertainment Centre. • Investing $1.92M in further developing anti smog initiatives. This project was begun in 1997 and will continue over the next four years. • Continuing to invest in energy efficient projects. $300,000 has been provided for this type of project. • Completing the Pier Terminal Building Project. This will include the fit out cost for the New Brighton Library.

The current situation Waimakariri District Council is a medium-sized, high-growth council emerging from the rebuild that has followed the Canterbury earthquakes. In addition, approximately 10,000 people have moved into the district since the earthquakes, with a further 8,000 forecast to move there over the next seven years. As a result, some substantial issues have emerged. Competition over resources and priorities for development has built up between Rangiora, Kaiapoi and Woodend. Period of assessment The assessment was conducted on 13 and 14 March 2017. Notwithstanding the significant capital investment which has occurred post-earthquakes, particularly in infrastructure, there continues to be strong demand for further investment in local facilities. Transport solutions are needed to ensure the district remains a viable commuter suburb, with 42 per cent of the workforce now commuting to Christchurch. 2 CouncilMARK™ $1,100m GROSS DOMESTIC 1 PRODUCT SERVES RESPONSIBLE FOR MAKES UP 1,546km 57,800 % ROADS4 2 0.841 PEOPLE , A MIX OF 3 91% EUROPEAN/PAKEHA OF NEW ZEALAND’S TOTAL LAND AREA 7% MĀORI REPRESENTING WAIMAKARIRI 2% ASIAN DISTRICT, FROM PEGASUS BAY THROUGH TO PUKETERAKI RANGE, AN AREA OF: 2 2,255 km POPULATION TREND HIGH GROWTH Key learnings The Council needs to be responsive to the pace and timing of change expected by its community relative to its own plans.

  • Christchurch Retail, Red Zones and the Rebuild
    Strategic Consultancy Retail Intelligence Rome wasn’t built in a day: Christchurch Retail, Red Zones and the Rebuild www.joneslanglasalle.co.nz 2 Executive Summary: The prohibition of redevelopment in large parts of Christchurch is significantly impacting the shape of the urban environment of the city. This is being executed through the identification of Red Zones. The majority of the residential Red Zones are located in; the east of Christchurch (along the Avon and in related areas usually associated with waterways or former waterways); in the north-east of Christchurch (e.g. Brooklands); and in the beach area of Waimakariri District (i.e. Kairaki Beach). There are currently about 5,000 properties in the Christchurch City Council area and around 100 properties in the Waimakariri District Council area in the residential red zone. Future trends suggest: A hollowing out of the area of Christchurch around the Avon River. A population drift to the North of Christchurch A population drift to the Southwest of Christchurch A significant uplift in populations of the small towns around Christchurch Growth in retail spending in these areas will create additional demand for close to 80,000 sqm of retail space. Just over 40,000 sqm of retail development is currently in the pipeline suggesting there remain opportunities to tap into this growing demand profile heading forward. We see the greatest opportunities in the Supermarket / Grocery space, DIY, Home Furnishings and Food and Beverage sectors. This development is however not without its challenges as stakeholders in Christchurch remain prickly to proposed intensification at the periphery at what they often see is at the expense of the CBD.

  • Regions of Liquefaction Damage in Kaiapoi Following the Canterbury Earthquakes and Their Correlation with Former River Channels
    Regions Of Liquefaction Damage In Kaiapoi Following The Canterbury Earthquakes And Their Correlation With Former River Channels L.M. Wotherspoon, M.J. Pender & R.P. Orense The University of Auckland, Auckland, New Zealand SUMMARY: The town of Kaiapoi, 17 km north of the city of Christchurch in the Canterbury region of New Zealand, suffered significant damage as a result of liquefaction and lateral spreading during the 2010-2011 Canterbury earthquake sequence. Severe lateral spreading and large volumes of ejecta were present throughout the town and surrounding region. Shifts in the path of the rivers in the region have been extensive since the beginnings of European settlement in the 1850s, and as a result there are multiple areas within the town and surrounding area that were, until recently, channels of the river. Using historical data, areas that had been reclaimed were identified, and when compared with the areas of severe liquefaction damage following these earthquakes, the strong correlation between the two was revealed. The significant damage to buildings, infrastructure and services in these regions highlights the importance of having a clear understanding of historical river modifications in seismically active regions. Keywords: Liquefaction, lateral spreading, Canterbury earthquakes, river modification 1. INTRODUCTION Kaiapoi is a small town approximately 17 km north of the city of Christchurch in the Canterbury region of New Zealand (See Figure 1 and 3a). On 4 September 2010, the Mw7.1 Darfield earthquake occurred 42 km to the south west of Kaiapoi. This earthquake resulted in severe liquefaction-induced damage in both Christchurch and Kaiapoi, with Kaiapoi experiencing some of the most severe damage from the resulting lateral spreading, settlement and ejected material.

Just five years on and allowing for the receipt of its 2015-16 contributions, the Fund now stands at $20 million. This provides members, when combined with the Fund’s reinsurance, with protection covering two events of up to $125m each while still leaving the Fund with a reasonable base to rebuild from. This impressive rate of rebuilding the Fund since the 2010-11 Canterbury earthquakes while still providing members with a good level of cover demonstrates the commitment of members to get themselves appropriately prepared for a possible future major disaster. Membership at 1 July 2015 is 32 I continue to be encouraged by those members who have remained loyal to LAPP. Trustees were pleased to approve a 20% reduction in contributions for the 2015-16 year, because the Fund for 2015-16 was able to negotiate lower reinsurance costs which, added to the investment income from the cash component, meant a more efficient risk to cost benefit.

  • 13-1 the 2010-2011 Canterbury New Zealand Earthquakes
    THE 2010-2011 CANTERBURY NEW ZEALAND EARTHQUAKES AND THE EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT OF BUILDINGS AND INFRASTRUCTURE Peter R Wood1, Dave Brunsdon2, John Hare3, Mike Stannard4, Bruce Galloway3 Abstract The 2010-2011 Canterbury sequence occurred in an area of New Zealand with a low probabilistic seismic hazard. The sequence commenced with the M7.1 Darfield earthquake of 4 September 2010 that caused unprecedented urban liquefaction and lateral spreading, severely damaged unreinforced masonry buildings, caused significant non-structural damage, and disrupted infrastructure. Aftershocks included the damaging events of: December 2010; February 2011; June 2011; and December 2011. The 22 February 2011 M6.3 event caused significant shaking of Christchurch, New Zealand’s second largest City, with even more unprecedented urban liquefaction, lateral spreading, additional severe damage to and collapse of unreinforced masonry buildings causing fatalities and injuries, further non-structural damage and disruption to infrastructure, and damage to modern buildings. Two multi-storey, reinforced concrete buildings collapsed with fatalities and injuries. Rock fall and cliff collapse caused additional fatalities and injuries. A total of 185 lives were lost. A state of National Emergency was in place for just over two months. Prior to the Canterbury earthquake sequence, ATC-20 Procedures for Postearthquake Safety Evaluation of Buildings was adapted to the New Zealand statutory environment and published by the New Zealand Society for Earthquake Engineering as Building Safety Evaluations during a State of Emergency Guidelines for Territorial Authorities 2009. Adaptations incorporated experiences from earthquakes in Gisborne New Zealand, L’Aquila Italy, and Padang Indonesia, and included recognizing that a building may be compromised by the state of its neighboring surrounds.

  • Submission to Waimakariri District Council 2021 Long Term Plan
    Kaiapoi Promotion Association Inc. PO Box 130 Kaiapoi 12 April 2021 Submission to Waimakariri District Council 2021 Long Term Plan The Kaiapoi Promotion Association Inc (KPA) welcomes the opportunity to make this submission to the 2021 Long Term Plan. A Cycleway Development The KPA strongly supports of the proposal to provide $250,000 in the Recreation budget towards the construction of a recreational cycle route from the north end of the Waimakariri River bridge to central Kaiapoi utilising the existing Ecan stopbanks. This proposal to include the project in the 2020/21 Annual Plan was supported by the council following the consideration of presentations from KPA and ENC at its meeting on 1 October 2019. At that meeting ENC highlighted that this recreational route is a key component of a wider recreational cycle route extending into North Canterbury. The KPA was very disappointed that the Council did not proceed with this project in the 2020/21 year. The Council has spent a lot of money developing the central Kaiapoi area and it is imperative that the cycleways are located in places that makes access to central Kaiapoi simple and safe for visitors. While the Council has completed a commuter route to link the CNC cycle route to the Kaiapoi to Rangiora route, this route will not appeal to visitors and recreational walkers and cyclists. The recent Kaiapoi Brand workshop concluded that walking and cycling is a key attraction for visitors to Kaiapoi, and that the residents of North Christchurch are the primary target market for visitors. As the country emerges from the current lockdown it is clear that domestic visitors to Kaiapoi will be key to ensuring that a wide range of businesses in the Kaiapoi area survive.
