  • Strategy and Policy Committee Report Back on Attendance at the Emergency Management Conference
    STRATEGY AND POLICY COMMITTEE 7 MARCH 2013 REPORT 5 (1215/52/IM) REPORT BACK ON ATTENDANCE AT THE EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT CONFERENCE – FEBRUARY 2012 1. Purpose of Report To report back to all Councillors on the Conference including the subjects covered and an opinion of the value of attendance by Elected Members. 2. Purpose of Report It is recommended that the Strategy and Policy Committee 1. Receive the information. 3. Details of the Conference On February 22nd 2011 I was attending an Emergency Management Conference. Guest speakers spoke of how lucky Christchurch was to have survived the previous September 4th quake with no loss of life. We broke for lunch and at 12.51pm Christchurch suffered another major earthquake. This time it was not so lucky and it became obvious, from the experts in the room that this would be serious. The conference was cancelled and I went home to watch the grim news unfold on television. In February 2012 the conference reconvened. This time there was much to discuss. I was unfortunately not able to attend all sessions as a fellow councillor who was to also attend and do some of the sessions was not able to be there. The first day started with keynote speakers: Clive Manley, head of Auckland Council Civil Defence, Hon Chris Tremain Minister of Civil Defence and Mayor Bob Parker. Bob told us 71,000 homes were affected, 40,000 chemical toilets were distributed, half a million tons of silt was moved and $1billion of damage was done to the waste water system alone. After morning tea we heard from Dr Richard Sharpe of BECA.

  • Christchurch City Holdings Limited Is a Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of Christchurch City Council
    Christchurch City Holdings Limited is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Christchurch City Council cChristchurchc Cityh Holdingsl Investing in the city’s infrastructure The primary purpose of Christchurch City Holdings Ltd (CCHL) is to invest in and promote the establishment of key infrastructure, and this now extends to assisting the Council in the rebuild and redevelopment of Christchurch following the Canterbury earthquakes. CCHL will continue to invest in existing and new infrastructural assets such as the electricity distribution network, the airport, port, transport and high speed broadband. CCHL’s strategic approach is to identify infrastructural needs that are not or cannot be filled by the private sector or existing Council operations, then take a role in helping to meet those needs through joint ventures, public-private partnerships, establishing new entities or simply acting as a catalyst for others. Appropriate investment is encouraged and, if necessary, facilitated by CCHL in its trading companies when significant upgrades are required to existing infrastructural assets – recent examples being the establishment and funding of Enable Services, and the provision of some of the funding requirements for the construction of the new airport terminal. CCHL is supportive of its companies as they deal with post-earthquake repairs and rebuild of assets and markets. 2 About CCHL Christchurch City Holdings Ltd (CCHL) is the commercial and investment arm of Christchurch City Council. The company is responsible for managing the Council’s investment in eight fully or partly-owned Council-controlled trading organisations – Orion New Zealand Ltd, Christchurch International Airport Ltd, Lyttelton Port Company Ltd, Enable Services Ltd, City Care CHRISTCHURCH Ltd, Red Bus Ltd, EcoCentral Ltd and Selwyn CITY HOLDINGS Plantation Board Ltd.

  • Media Release Christchurch's Roadmap for Infrastructure Rebuild
    Media Release Christchurch's roadmap for infrastructure rebuild Release Date: 07 September 2012 The five year schedule for the rebuild of Christchurch's earthquake-damaged roads and underground services was released today by the Minister for Canterbury Earthquake Recovery Gerry Brownlee and Christchurch Mayor Bob Parker. The plan includes a map setting out indicative timeframes for infrastructure repairs in different areas of the city. The work has been prioritised based on a range of factors, with the aim being to first fix the worst-affected areas that impact on the most people. "This work is one piece of a much bigger and complex city-wide recovery programme," says Minister Brownlee. "But it is highly significant as underground services need to be rebuilt and future-proofed so that the city's recovery is founded on a secure infrastructure base. "It will take another four years to rebuild Christchurch's horizontal infrastructure and deciding what comes first is not easy. We've used a robust model to prioritise the work and that's what we're launching today. Of course, things might change as work progresses, but residents can now have a good idea of when we'll be working in their neighbourhood." Mayor Parker says the works schedule underpins confidence in the city’s recovery and reinvestment in the South Island's largest city. "People will begin to see a more resilient and forward-looking city emerging from the legacy of the earthquakes," he says. "The schedule we are launching today gives certainty for the future; but we have already made good progress on the rebuild and work has been ongoing for more than a year now.

    Big quake aftershocks plague New Zealand city 8 September 2010, By ROB GRIFFITH , Associated Press Writer Christchurch since Saturday's 7.1 magnitude earthquake wrecked hundreds of buildings. Nobody was reported injured by the latest temblor. "My guts is just churning up here. When will this thing end? It is like living in a maelstrom," Christchurch Mayor Bob Parker said as workers streamed from the city's emergency headquarters. "We have got staff in tears ... power is out and a lot of people are very, very churned up by that," he told the NewstalkZB radio station. "We were restarting to think maybe, just maybe, we are over the worst of this, and now we have had this shocking event," Parker said. "This is a hammer blow to the spirit of a lot of people."
