Chairperson of Hanmer Springs Community Board Cr Mary Holloway said it has been on the wish for free, 24/7, confidenXal support . list for a while since foot traffic has increased during recent years, due to the nearby newly established subdivision and the general popularity of the area. MainPower has recently identified that 11 of the 24 trees currently occupying the road reserve through this section as encroaching the Growth Limit Zone of the overhead power lines. In addition, there is a water main running under the road reserve which is due to be replaced in the next 10 years and it makes sense to do the work at the same time. Renewal is likely to cause significant root damage, thus requiring their removal at that time. “With the trees being removed, the intention is to replace the watermain at the same time and that is subject to Council approving an amendment to the Long Term Plan,” said Mary. She added that the removal of the trees will also have other positive impacts such as improved sight distances when exiting driveways, reduced leaf fall in autumn and improved drainage. “Community safety is paramount, and removing the trees will address this and also save the community money in the long term.” Replanting with species that are more compatible with underground water pipes, powerlines and visibility will be considered. There will be further correspondence as the works continue, exact dates subject to council approving the water pipe renewal being brought forward. 154456 HANMER STORAGE CALL RICK 03 315 7401 OR 027201 4536 available in Hanmer Springs *secure closed yard. *short or long term rental units *secure, fireproof , dry and rodent-free * suitable for furniture, cars, tools etc Hanmer 0274 337 985 *containers for sale or hire www.hanmerstorage.co.nz Christchurch, Hanmer Springs, Kaikoura, Cheviot, Waiau, Rotherham, Waikari, Waipara Amberley, Rangiora, Greta Valley, Culverden [email protected] Music and Arts Hanmer Springs AGM followed ! by an ordinary meeting will be held at the Hanmer Peter Moody Springs Library at 7pm on Thursday 26 of August.

  • Community-Led Youth Wellbeing Needs Analysis for the Cheviot Area School Catchment and the Wider Hurunui District
    Community-Led Youth Wellbeing Needs Analysis for the Cheviot Area School Catchment and the Wider Hurunui District Prepared by Michelle Cole, Sarah Wylie and Dr Janet Spittlehouse of The Collaborative Trust for Research and Training in Youth Health and Development, for Cheviot Area School, and of relevance to Together Hurunui and Tipu Māia Kāhui Ako January 2021 Executive Summary Background With support from Lotteries Community Research Fund, research was undertaken in the latter part of 2020 focused on the strengths and opportunities of young people in the Hurunui district, and how these can be assisted to grow. The research was initiated by Cheviot Area School, and undertaken by Michelle Cole, a Hurunui-based youth mental health specialist and Sarah Wylie, a researcher from The Collaborative Trust for Research and Training in Youth Health and Development. The research sought to answer the following questions: 1. What are the current and likely future wellbeing needs of children, young people and whānau in Hurunui? (Evidence of service and support needs, barriers to service access, service and support gaps etc.) 2. What model of service delivery and support provision is best-placed to address these wellbeing needs locally? (What services and supports are most needed, how are they best delivered, and what is possible from both a school, community and service provider perspective?) 3. If a wellbeing hub is found to meet with support, what is the best approach to develop a wellbeing hub at Cheviot School in a sustainable manner? Although commissioned by Cheviot Area School, the research is of relevance to all youth service providers across Hurunui, and is intended as a community resource.

  • May 2020 INTRODUCTION
    May 2020 INTRODUCTION Looking at the environment within which the Council operates is key to ensuring that what the Council decides to deliver in future is relevant and of value. This Environmental Scan (the Scan) provides a snapshot of information so that everyone who references it can have a shared understanding of the current issues and opportunities facing the Hurunui District. The Scan considers both the national and regional context to which we work within, along with identifying local statistics in order to assist in decision-making. Information has been sourced from a wide range of originations primarily at a desktop level, and key issues identified through this process will be given further investigation. It has been designed to provide standard sets of information for direct input into the Council’s long term planning process; particularly its financial and infrastructure strategies and asset and activity management plans. 1 Relationship This Scan assists in the early identification of key drivers to help set the Council's strategic and with other operational directions.
