Walk for Summer
By Mary Anne Gill
Summer Mudford is one in a million, literally. Her parents Vanessa and Ray of Cambridge say their beautiful 8-year-old daughter is the only child in New Zealand with Batten Disease, a fatal inherited disorder of the nervous system. Today is International Batten Disease Day and the Mudfords are embarking on a three-day awareness campaign, so the Cambridge community knows more about “this horrible, cruel terminal disease”. The campaign culminates on Saturday with a 5km run/walk at 10am using the same route as the Cambridge New Zealand parkrun – starting and finishing on the Te Awa River Walk from just below the Velodrome. It was in July last year that Vanessa, Ray and Summer’s lives changed forever. Her parents noticed something not right with Summer’s right eye – it was moving outward for no apparent reason. So, they took her to an optometrist who prescribed spectacles for her, but they did not help. She was unable to focus and kept falling. She was referred to John Dickson, a consultant ophthalmologist at Waikato Hospital. Within minutes he knew the problem was not with Summer’s eyes, but something more serious. Doctors told Vanessa and Ray there was a 97 per cent chance Summer had a brain tumour but on September 3 – her eighth birthday – a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan revealed it was Batten Disease. Eventually Summer will go blind, develop dementia and lose the ability to walk, talk and communicate. There are 13 types of the disease – Summer has CLN1, or Infantile Batten Disease. There is no cure and life expectancy is short. Her eyesight has already diminished – she has 1:60 vision – making her legally blind. She goes nights without any sleep and the first subtle signs of dementia have started, mostly in the evening. “Summer is a bright caring little girl who loved to see
people smile. She has said from an early age that seeing people smile makes her heart sing,” said Vanessa. “It’s like Benjamin Button, she got to eight and everything crashed,” said Ray who has himself had to deal with multiple sclerosis (MS) which has robbed the former Tokoroa truck driver of the ability to work. While both are neurological disorders, doctors say there is no link between Ray’s MS and Summer’s Batten Disease, which researchers nonetheless think is an inherited disorder. “I know what it’s like to go through what she is,” he said “but it’s devastating to see in someone so young. “She’s always been an old soul; she loves people and animals. She is definitely our little sunshine.” Ray gets frustrated at the lack of help the family get from the health system. They have had to do much of the research themselves even working out Summer’s dietary needs which now include expensive supplements. There is so much they do not get told. Recently Vanessa rang the doctor when Summer experienced brief, sudden lapses of consciousness. She was told they were absence seizures – a common Batten’s symptom. “We’re not taking anything away from other illnesses but if this was cancer or something, help would be coming from everywhere,” said Ray. Researchers at Otago and Lincoln universities have bred sheep with Batten Disease to trial treatments, including most recently gene therapy. This work will lead to clinical trials but not soon enough for Summer, Continued on page 2 Summer Mudford with Mickey, her pet chihuahua.

Tests are back Driver testing services returned to Cambridge today, after a gap of seven years. Testing also resumed in Matamata. The move was welcomed by the Cambridge based owner of Brighteye Driving School, Sheryl Moffat, who said it had been difficult and costly for young drivers to get to testing sites. Waipā mayor Jim Mylchreest said he would “happily admit” to having lobbied for the service to return. VTNZ Operations support manager Rachael Jobson said online bookings were open for all practical driving tests at the VTNZ Cambridge site on Lake Street. “Initially there will be one part-time driver testing officer working three days a week, but we expect to increase capacity over coming months,” she said. VTNZ says it is working with Waipā District Council and their landlord to provide appropriate parking for test applicants. There is roughly a 25-day wait period for driver tests in the Waikato.

It was a right royally dreich day in Cambridge last Friday, entirely appropriate weather for the marking here of Britain’s Queen Elizabeth II’s Platinum Jubilee. The Cambridge Brass Band, led by Pipe Major Bryan Mitchell led things off by playing several tunes, first outside the Cambridge Town Hall, then at Victoria Station and later outside Jumble Around in Leamington. The band’s top number for the day was a specially composed piece entitled ‘Diu Regnare’, Latin for ‘Long to Reign’. The work had been written for the occasion by Scottish Pipe Major Stuart Liddell and was played by pipers around the world to mark the Queen’s historic milestone.

We recently had reports of boy racers causing problems in the Karāpiro road area. With good community support and information, we were able to identify a few vehicles involved and have already impounded two of them for 28 days for the offence of Sustained Loss of Traction. The drivers will be held accountable and supports put in place where required to help keep them on the right track. Burnouts occur when a vehicle is deliberately driven in such a way as to cause sustained loss of traction of the wheels, burning rubber and often to the point of tyres popping. This antisocial activity ues Alys AntiqArt & Fine causes significant noise and air pollution for local residents as well as causing debris and damage to the road. Depending on the number of vehicles present, disorderly behaviour can also break out. We understand that the combination of these factors is causing great annoyance to people in our area.

As this example shows, with a combined effort between police and you, our community, we can hold the drivers to account, see what is going on with them and work to prevent reoffending. This activity often occurs after dark. If you see boy racers engaging in burnouts, call 111. All it takes is for one driver to lose control and injury could happen. While I am on the topic of calling 111, I am an advocate of see something, do something. Twice recently I have been told about things after the fact, that should have been reported at the time. One was a vehicle dumped in a reserve near Karāpiro that had all the appearances of being (and was subsequently confirmed) as stolen. The second was the case of a male who appeared to be under the influence of something, seen walking in a live lane on the Waikato expressway at night time at a time when there was a lot of traffic. In the case of the stolen car, the longer it was left, the greater risk there was of it
being re-stolen, items removed from inside and important forensic evidence being lost. With the male on the Waikato Expressway, the risks to himself and motorists were obviously huge. I remind all again to not rely on the expectation that someone else will alert police to a situation in progress. When we get multiple calls for the same incident, our staff are able to gather much more information and clarity about what is going on and the true seriousness can better be assessed. On a final note, our local Community Patrollers have commenced a trial of daytime foot patrols around town. Police already conduct regular foot patrols however as you can imagine, we cannot be everywhere, all the time. It is awesome to have the patrollers’ support and I am sure the retailers appreciate the extra eyes and ears.

Business builds boom By Mary Anne Gill
Demand for Waipā commercial sections, led by interest around Hamilton Airport, is fuelling the workload for district council staff. Growth and Regulatory group manager Wayne Allan told councillors at this week’s Strategic Planning and Policy committee activity was right across the district with new retail, security and technology businesses setting up in the airport’s industrial park and retirement villages, upgrades and a new medical centre elsewhere. “There’s plenty going on,” Allan said. The number of commercial consents was proof of that with 155 in 2019, 203 in 2020 and 213 last year. The council is forecasting that to go higher this year. It continues to be busy in the building consents area with 497 totalling $140.6 million submitted to council in the quarter to March 31. There were 490 building consents issued and this included 141 new houses; 41 in Cambridge, 36 in Te Awamutu and 64 across the rest of the district. The pressure on inspectors has eased since those first three months of the year, Allan said. Council refunded applicants about $6000 for nine consents which went over the statutory time frame - a consequence of staff vacancies and a higher number of applications. The previous quarter there had been 15 refunds totalling $9000. “We are trending down in this quarter.” Helping that downward trend is getting the team back to full capacity, he said. Several significant applications had attracted public interest which Allan noted made it difficult for staff particularly when council had not received the full application yet. He was referring to a proposed quarry south of Cambridge in Newcombe Road.
Another controversial application is in Te Awamutu where Global Contracting Solutions have been told to provide more information about its proposed waste to energy plant on Racecourse Road. Chair Susan O’Regan said while the council could make the decision about the plant itself, it had to be well communicated given the amount of community interest. “Waipā continues to be in a high growth and development phase, and it is not unusual to see increased levels of public interest as growth and development introduces changes to what people come to expect. It is important to note that “change” in itself is not an adverse effect under the Resource Management Act, and that the Act does not provide any rights for interested parties to participate in the consent process,” said Allan in his report. “The Act requires a rigorous assessment process to be undertaken to identify potentially affected parties who do have participation rights to submit on proposals.” The significant building consents issued in the quarter were: • 196 Airport Road Hamilton, new office and hotroom extension to existing production building. • 1902 Cambridge Road Cambridge, office fitout of commercial building purchased as a shell. • 80 Laurent Road Cambridge, construct Blocks B02, B03, B04 & B06 of retirement villas comprising of a total of 15 units. • 32 Ingram Road Hamilton, new warehouse and attached two level office facility • 180 Ossie James Drive, Hamilton, new warehouse and attached two level office facility • 938 Alexandra Street Te Awamutu, alteration to carpark layouts.

Hapū raise consent issues By Benjamin Wilson
A Waipā hapū representative group is being overwhelmed with resource consent applications which should be reviewed by staff first. Council staff have acknowledged they are “pushing” more applicants to talk to consult first with mana whenua – and that should not come at a cost to them. Ngā Iwi Tōpū O Waipā meets monthly to consider resource consent applications. It also considers issues brought directly to iwi for consultation and consideration and nominates members on to Waipā District Council’s Iwi Consultative Committee. The consultative committee was told in April the number of preresource consents Ngā Iwi Tōpū was
receiving, was alarming. “You are sort of caught off guard a bit, because the process isn’t being followed,” said committee member Haupai Puke. The issue has now been aired by chair Gaylene Roberts. “We just need to do things a lot better than we have been,” she told the committee last week. Puke said a number of applications were going straight to Ngā Iwi Tōpū, without first going through council channels. As a result the council didn’t have an accurate record of the number of applications that Ngā Iwi Tōpū was receiving. Roberts said they were not receiving compensation for time spent processing the applications. Strategic Partnerships manager Gary Knighton and Roberts have since been working together to find
a solution. “We need to do something in that space, we are pushing more and more for applicants to talk to mana whenua first,” Knighton said. “We accept that there is no reason why mana whenua should be out of pocket for doing that.” Roberts said not being compensated for their work was just one of many problems Ngā Iwi Tōpū faced. “That is a little tip of the iceberg of the problems that we deal with,” she said. “We are talking about people who are retired… we have to make the work lighter for them, when they do any site visits or any work.” She said that they are in need of administrative assistance, so emails could be responded to quickly, and kaumatua could visit sites without
worrying about administrative obligations. Knighton said council first needed to work out what the cost of any administrative assistance, or system changes for Ngā Iwi Tōpū would be. “Our next step is to identify what this beefed up Ngā Iwi Tōpū resource looks like,” he said. “We do have some budget put aside for this, I am not sure whether it would fall within that or not.” Dominic Tumoana suggested to the committee that managing the resource consent data through an online portal could make things more efficient for the different branches of council. “It probably is a good solution to look at, we don’t have anything in the pipeline at the moment, but are very open to having those suggestions made,” said Knighton.

The trust behind three proposed sporting halls of fame in Waipā has embarked on its months’ long engagement campaign by presenting to the Cambridge Community Board. Trust chair Graeme Maw has also released a video exclusively to The News for our website cambridgenews.nz which it is using to explain its plans for the proposed Velodrome venue. The halls of fame will comprise New Zealand, racing and Māori exhibits with a multi-sensory and interactive twist. For the sporting halls to proceed, the Home of Cycling Trust needs $750,000 from Waipā District Council to show other backers the district was the best place to celebrate New Zealand’s sporting and creative success. Waipā district councillors have told the trust it needs to see evidence of community engagement before it decides whether to provide any funding. Maw told The News trustees would engage with community and business groups to talk about its plans. One sport also considering making a move to Cambridge is Golf New Zealand. The national golf body had a memorandum of understanding to establish a Centre of Excellence in Cambridge, but that agreement lapsed five years ago. Chief executive Dean Murphy said Golf NZ was still considering its

options and Cambridge remained a possibility. Like the existing racing and Māori halls of fame, golf has a virtual one although one of its most famous golfers, Sir Bob Charles, features in the current Sporting Hall of Fame exhibition at Dunedin Railway Station. St Peter’s School has had a golf academy since 2005 which comprises a driving range and all-weather golf training facilities. Plans to establish a housing development to the east of the school towards Cambridge could be adapted to include grounds suitable for a golfing academy and cement the sports’ involvement with the halls of fame. Equestrian is another sport Maw says the trust is talking to about its

plans. The trust commissioned Rick Pearson from Pearson and Associates to come up with designs for an exhibition design in an expanded Velodrome. Pearson has experience in this area designing the Navy Museum in Devonport, the post-earthquake Kaiapoi Museum, the Aoraki Mt Cook Visitor Centre and Brave Hearts, the Auckland Medical Museum Trust’s mobile cardiac exhibition. Maw said the Home of Cycling Trust wanted the halls of fame not only to house exhibitions but also to provide virtual and simulated competition experiences. Participants could compare their strength, speed and stamina with the world’s best athletes.
Schools would have the opportunity to participate with sports learning kits providing virtual platforms. Cambridge Principals’ Association chair Kim Budd said she was excited by the large emphasis on education and interactive displays. “We see having this asset or taonga on our doorstep as a real bonus for our local schools, their family and whanau and the wider community. Learners within all our schools will be able to enjoy a first-hand experience of New Zealand sports history, and the individuals and teams that made and make this up,” she said. Sport Waikato chief executive Matthew Cooper is also a fan of the interactive aspect of the Sports Hall of Fame model.
Tīeke golfers are being encouraged to use the toilets provided at the golf course’s clubhouse or on course. In a message to players the club has told members: ‘if you can’t hold on until the next toilet, please be considerate of fellow golfers and surrounding properties/ residents by finding a discreet location'.

Drain the lake plan a surprise By Mary Anne Gill
An ambitious plan to drain Lake Te Koo Utu and refill it with water from a Maungatautari spring and cut down deciduous trees around the lake has caught Waipā District Council by surprise. The proposal has come from a newlyformed Lake Te Koo Utu Restoration Plan group, an organisation which has had no engagement with the council despite a yearlong council consultation. The council launched its campaign in 2020 as part of Long Term Plan consultation and following overwhelming community support, subsequently adopted a $4 million programme of works funded by asset sales. Work has begun on the installation of 12 rain gardens which would be retrofitted near high use intersections around the lake to filter storm water runoff before it enters the lake. Three proprietary devices would be fitted into the existing storm water outlets to also filter oil, petrol, zinc and rubber from cars out of the water. In stage two, 32 rain gardens would then be installed, and 66 rain gardens installed in stage three. Service Delivery group manager Dawn Inglis said while the restoration group may have engaged with district councillors, the

proposal had not been presented to staff. “So, we haven’t seen any detail and nor has it been analysed in any way. “Staff would be happy to talk the proposal through, especially given the work already ongoing to improve water quality at Lake Te Ko Utu. There’s already been a lot of community engagement around the lake and we know water quality is a big issue,” she said. But the group’s proposal to refill the lake

with fresh water from a Maungatautari spring has already hit a snag. The group, which includes Micheal Ross, Nelson Schick, Patricia Murdoch and Bill Woolston, says the spring is reticulated to the Karāpiro reservoirs on Maungatautari Road and no longer needed for the Cambridge town water supply. “While it would be reasonably expensive to reticulate, this system would run virtually cost-free forever.

But Inglis said the Maungatautari spring’s reticulation to Karāpiro was removed in December 2018 as was pipework across private farmland. Easements no longer applied. The group says council’s efforts to build rain gardens would have “minimal effect” as evaporation would diminish the flow further. “Our committee believes a complete drainage of the lake is required to remove all toxic matter from the lake bed, then drying it out before applying a layer of base course metal with a finer metal on top. “The pipes bringing this water into the lake would be better re-routed around and under the existing walkways to bypass the lake, picking up the present toxic storm water entry points, making the Maungatautari water the only water entering the lake.” The group says leaves dropping from deciduous trees around the lake are also causing huge issues and the trees should be replaced by evergreen natives to form a barrier. • See: Lake plan, page 13.

A green fingered bandsman Retired academic and bandsman Chris Hendy has been recognised for his lengthy involvement with the Brass Band Association of New Zealand (BBANZ). A ceremony held as part of the May 25 Cambridge Brass Band annual meeting saw Chris presented with trophies for 39 years’ membership with BBANZ and 41 years playing with the Association. He received his ribbon and bars for 30, 35 and 40 years of service, and at the same event, became the first recipient of the John Hargreaves Memorial Trophy. John Hargreaves was a treasured member of the Cambridge Brass Band, playing with them for 72 years before his death in October 2020. His widow Jean is now the band’s patron and it was she who presented the award to Chris. Band spokesperson Bernadette Winter said the trophy had been made in John Hargreaves’ honour and to reflect something important to him. “John had a great love of trees and spent many hours growing kauri trees. The trophy is made of swamp kauri and was crafted by
local woodturner and family friend, Barry Harding. It is given for outstanding service to the band.” Chris, a tuba player with the band and former geochemistry professor from the University of Waikato, played in various bands around New Zealand before joining the Cambridge Brass Band in 2014. He and his wife Vivien have spent much time producing and packing tomatoes and home preserves for sale at Lions markets, with proceeds going back to the band. A couple of years ago, Chris sold heirloom tomatoes to help fund the band’s trip to Le Quesnoy, and for the past three years, he has grown hundreds of plants to sell in the community. Bernadette said: “He has raised up to $1000 each year to help fund a new tuba. We thank Chris for his fantastic musical and green-fingered contribution to the band, and his wife for her support and hard work, too.” Chris’s musical life started at age seven when his father gave him an old French cornet. He joined the Dannevirke Municipal Band in 1953 and his first public performance was to Queen
Elizabeth 11 on her New Zealand tour. He moved to an Eb Bass, winning the national Eb Bass solo in 1965. After spending his early years playing with four national youth bands, Chris auditioned to join the national youth orchestra in
1966. “I was doing my PhD research while employed as a junior scientist at the Institute of Nuclear Sciences. I was called into my boss’s office and told the manager of the NZSO was on the phone and wanted me to
take leave without pay because the orchestra’s tuba player was sick and there was a concert coming up. “So, I joined the orchestra. I played with them until I went to New York on a Fullbright Fellowship in the mid-1970s. Meanwhile I
continued my PhD research on stalagmites and stalactites in limestone caves, with the travel costs largely covered by the NZSO, while playing for Onslow Brass and the National Youth Orchestra – the last time as guest soloist playing Tubby the Tuba.”

HE WHAKAWHITIWHITINGA WHAKAARO
Aotearoa New Zealand By Tom Roa, Tikanga Advisor, Waikato University
Te Pāti Māori has handed over to Parliament its petition calling for the country to be named officially, ‘Aotearoa.’ This coincides with our recent postings on namings here in the Waipā District, and also the exploration of the re-naming of streets in Hamilton nearby. Interestingly, the historicity of those namings is featuring as an important aspect in the exploration of their re-naming. So let’s explore firstly the naming of New Zealand. There is a misconception that Abel Tasman named this space ‘Nieuw Zeeland’. However he recorded in his ship’s log the name ‘Staten Landt’; believing that he had reached a part of South America which had been named that by Jacob Le Maire. It appears that later a cartographer in Holland corrected this and recorded the name ‘Nieuw Zeeland’ after Zeeland a province in the Netherlands. So if we are to be guided by and ‘true’ to the original European naming of this space should we perhaps be Staten Landt? With the name ‘Aotearoa’ the story goes that the Polynesian explorer Kupe’s wife, Kuramārōtini, is said to have sighted a long (roa) whitish (tea) cloud (ao) formation which is only seen over land, and exclaimed, ‘He ao, he ao tea, he ao tea roa.” It would appear that this was popularised by Sir George Grey in his book, ‘Polynesian Mythology’, and has became accepted as the Māori name for this country. Grey’s mistranslation of much of the material he was gifted by his Māori informants has become well-known, placing into doubt the historic accuracy of Kuramārōtini’s alleged exclamation. So if we are to be guided by the historicity

in both names of Aotearoa and New Zealand where does that take us?!? Te Pāti Māori’s petition for a name change gathered 70,000 signatures, backing the change. How many of those I wonder would have looked into the historicity of these names? National Party leader Christopher Luxton has called for a referendum assereting that it’s not a decision for the government to make but one for the people to decide. Deputy Prime Minister Grant Robertson asserts that the issue needs to be worked through very carefully. As the name of our country reflects our very identity. Interestingly, in her recent visit to the United States, Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern constantly referred to ‘Aotearoa New Zealand’ in her public addresses. I for one have also taken to referring to our country as Aotearoa New Zealand. It slips off my tongue now, as it does for many others. It reflects my understanding of my identity as a Kiwi, a New Zealander, with a dual heritage cognisant of my Māori ancestry and place in Polynesia, in the Pacific; along with my pride in my European ancestry. I am particularly mindful of my father’s service in World War 2 with the Māori Battalion. He, his five brothers and two brothers-in-law all avowed of their loyalty to ‘New Zealand’ in their service overseas. I can hear in my mind’s ear that he/ they would most likely not be in favour of Aotearoa replacing New Zealand. But they would probably give the nod to ‘Aotearoa New Zealand’ reflective of the dual ancestry they, I, and many others share with a deep love for ‘God’s Own.’

Ben beats way to music award
By Matteo Di Maio
Cambridge High’s annual $1000 Ritchie Pickett scholarship for excellence in music has gone to drums and piano musician—and year 13 student—Ben Wiles. Ritchie Pickett was a New Zealand country music singer-songwriter described by NZ Musician magazine as one of the country’s “kings of country rock.” The Morrinsville born artist died in Cambridge 2011 aged 56 and money from several
memorial concerts was put towards a scholarship in his name at Cambridge High to help a student progress in music. For Ben, that money is most likely going towards purchasing better equipment for his newfound enterprise: the drum lessons he’s started running for others in the community. Drums have been a part of Ben’s life for nine years — ever since he watched his friend play for the primary school orchestra back in year

four and thought: “this is something I want to try.” From there, he picked up drums — followed by the piano in year six. This year Ben has been active in the Cambridge Brass Band and school jazz and concert bands and he has several Smokefree Rockquests and school productions under his belt. He has entered in the upcoming Smokefree Rockquest starting next month, as well as the national Youth Jazz Festival from June 20-21. As to why he keeps playing—and his aspirations for the far future—Ben is nonchalantly cryptic. “I guess I’ll keep doing it recreationally and if it develops into something else which it very possibly could, then, well, we’ll see.”

How traffic from Waipā heads north – and returns home – is about the change. Good Local editor Roy Pilott gets an early look at the Hamilton section of the Waikato Expressway which will open next month.
A great bypass operation
The Southern Interchange, showing Tamahere Eventide resthome, takes traffic away from Hillcrest.
“Have you noticed recently the weather forecasters have had it dead right?” Simon Brandon asks as we get into the car. “Sadly, yes,” I respond. On the day Brandon, Waikato Expressway Stakeholder and Communications manager for Waka Kotahi is giving me a tour of the soon to be opened Hamilton section of the Waikato Expressway, the forecast is for very heavy showers at 10am. By 10.15am, when we have reached the point I’m most looking forward to seeing and taking pictures of, it’s absolutely bucketing down, so we stop under a bridge. I know this area well – it’s a couple of hundred metres from my home and I’ve watched the spaghetti junction construction of the bridge over the new road consume a sliver of what was my property, once a gully between us and where a house with a red roof stood was filled in. Watching that work over several weeks gave me a clear indication of the volume of this project – a 22km long bypass which will cut a quarter of an hour – at least - of motorists’ time. It also gave me a first hand view of how this huge project has been planned down to the smallest degree. Brandon and Grant Hubbard, who is the Communications and Stakeholder manager for the CityEdge Alliance/Hamilton Section project, are, like me, veteran journalists. We worked together a generation ago in the old Waikato Times offices in Foreman Rd and all three of us have switched to the “dark side” of communications work. The pair’s skills have been put to great use as issues with neighbours were dealt
with. Grant Hubbard has taken his share of grumpy calls from me. They are always handled brilliantly. Multiply me by a factor of 100 along the expressway and you get an idea of the potential for 22kms of grumpiness. But for all the controversy over the selected route and the inevitable invasiveness of the work, I struggle to find a story about anyone complaining. The neighbours also include native wildlife who should come out on top. Wetlands have been created, thousands of native plantings carried out – and, interestingly, thanks to the sharing of the planting programme with neighbours, there has been an effort by them to replicate them on their own properties. Brandon notes that as each section of the expressway from Auckland south has been started the knowledge about how to handle issues and plan for issues – and avoid issues – are improved. Earlier sections of the expressway began in the 1990s – at Tamahere and Pōkeno, then Ōhinewai and Mercer in the 2000s. In 2009 the remaining seven sections were funded for construction with Te Rapa (opened 2012), Ngāruawāhia (2013), Cambridge (2015), Rangiriri (2017), Longswamp (2020) and Huntly (2020). As many as 30,000 cars go past our house heading to and from Hillcrest on a busy day. Next month I hope most will instead take the expressway behind the stand of old pines on the western edge of the property. Brandon and I took the journey north, driving on the southbound side in the rain

The Greenhill Interchange, which involved cutting Greenhill Road in half.
at a snail’s pace as he pointed out the features of the project. It’s a bit like taking a journey through a familiar place, but by rail, on a route which gives you different views. No surprise that we were under Matangi Rd pretty quickly – I expect it will become about a minute’s drive next month. The road then swings northeast, under Morrinsville Rd, and we are heading to the first of three major interchanges. The gigantic inland port at the Ruakura Superhub will be opened by the expressway, heavy vehicles will give Hillcrest a miss and be there within five minutes of reaching the southern part of the city. I can only hazard a guess at the financial benefit of that when the Tainui Group Holdings project is in full flight. You can see why there is a push to have the expressway pushed through to Piarere. The same interchange will take traffic to Waikato University, and then exit for southbound traffic heading to the southern part of the city. It’s going to be busy. Next up is the Greenhill interchange. It’s not that long ago I used to drive up Greenhill Rd where one of the Waikato Times’ poker schools had a base. It was out in the country. Now been divided by the expressway and is almost part of the city. Here we are at the closest point to Wairere Drive – Hamilton’s ring road, which is also likely to see less

traffic when the new road opens – and that’s good news for commuters. You are not, as Brandon points out, going to jump onto the expressway to get a pint of milk. Under Gordonton Rd – another popular route for traffic heading to Auckland which will be less used – and Horsham Downs Rd, we are within site of the huge Resolution Drive interchange, where planning for the future is evident as the city grows. Here the close work with tangata whenua throughout the project is very evident - and visual. And the 22km journey is complete with a run through to where the new highway will connect to the Ngāruawāhia section of the expressway. Do the math – when the new highway opens with a 110kmh speed limit, with flowing traffic the journey around Hamilton will take 12 minutes. Do it through the city today in less than half an hour and you are doing well. It will take the main highway’s dual carriageway from Karāpiro to Auckland. When ever I do that journey, I’m reminded of the late former Hamilton deputy mayor Ian Drabble who lamented the condition of the “goat track” between Hamilton and Auckland. I’m sure the gentleman would look down and approve.

NO PLANET B
It's a wrap…
A true “act of God..’
I’m not going to write about teenagers this week. Not doing it. No. You can’t make me. Stop it - not happening... chewing gum in the dryer - Doh! Couldn’t help it. Sorry about that, anyway, moving on... My lovely wife insisted, late last week, that we take a couple of days off. Now, on Tuesday morning, looking out over Auckland city towards the harbour from 20 floors up, through the fog I can see nine cranes. I can also see at least 10 structures partially or completely enshrouded by heavy duty white plastic. How do I know it’s heavy duty? It must be - it’s covering buildings. They seem to be shrink wrapped with the stuff. One can only assume that it’s done in order to allow work to continue unaffected by the world’s increasingly unpredictable climate. This is a relatively new development in the building trade; it’s only in the last few years I have noticed these oversized dominoes popping up. I wonder, if you added up all the white plastic which is wrapped around buildings across the country, would it add up to more or less than the amount of plastic which has only recently been removed from the environment by the banning of plastic shopping bags? These bags were very lightweight, and to achieve the equivalent level of protection around a multi-story building would, I think, take a fair few of them. So haven’t we done well? Plastic strikes again - its usefulness can’t be denied. Imagine, for a moment, that you are the project manager for a large (or even a small) construction project (and for all I know you might be). If you elect to spend a few thousand dollars on a shiny new raincoat for your building, depending on the weather, you might save a lot more in lost productivity. Alternatively you can spare the planet from having to cope with a couple more tons of imperishable waste and run the risk of lost building time. Environmentally speaking - it’s no-brainer. You only have to look at your local skyline to see which side prevails. Even our brand new police station in Cambridge is only just hatching from its cocoon. Anyone know what happens to all that plastic? I’m not against progress. I’m not even, necessarily, saying that keeping building costs down to the detriment of the environment is not defensible. My point, I suppose, is that this is the perfect paradox. Depending on your position, the answer will be blindingly obvious - either way. So what is to be done? Talk. Brainstorm. Recognise that there is a problem and then bring both sides together, each with a genuine will to reach a solution. Use the plastic as insulation, make bricks with it, make roads or bus shelters with it. Trouble is there is no one person or organisation whose job it is to do that; not one that anyone has to listen to anyway. Therefore economics wins this argument hands down every time.
His real name is Ryan but that is not what the bullies called him at his school. Daily they ridiculed and hurled names like ‘retard,’moron’ and ‘weirdo’ at him. He was taunted, pushed and punched as they tried to get him to retaliate and pick a fight - all because Ryan is a little different. In the end they won a bitter victory. Because of the incessant bullying which teachers could not curtail, Ryan’s parents pulled him out of the school to teach him at home. Bullies are cowardly pathetic people who in their brokenness find pleasure in pushing us around just because they can. Posturing as being strong and in charge, their strategy to belittle others takes many forms, the aim being to assert domination over those they perceive as inferior. Statistically, three out of four people have been victimised by a bully at one time in their life. Said one expert, “bullying is all about power.” In previous articles I have written about the phenomenal power of God. There’s an old adage - that power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely. It would be understandable if God were a cosmic bully, throwing His weight around and rubbing our noses in the fact that in the grand scheme of things He’s the boss and we are puny and weak. I know the mere mention of God causes some to have an apoplectic fit but this is a “faith column” so bear with me because the description above, is nothing like who God is. The ultimate expression of what God is really like is reflected in the life of Jesus Christ. In fact, we are informed that He is the exact expression of God in every sense. If you want to know how God actually views or feels about anything - be it injustice, domination or whatever, check it out against Jesus’ words or how He responded in any given situation. One of Jesus’ disciples, John, wrote in the gospel carrying his name of an utterly incongruous moment that took place shortly before Jesus was crucified. He had finished a meal with the disciples and was about to be betrayed by one of the inner circle… Judas. Jesus got up after mealtime, wrapping a towel around His waist. He then proceeded to wash each disciple’s feet from a basin of water. They were aghast that their Lord would take the lowliest servant’s station. John’s words directly before this act, provide rich insight. “Jesus knew that the Father had put all things under His power and that He had come from God and was returning to God…” In other words Jesus was utterly secure in knowing who He was - that He was all powerful and about to return to heaven to His exalted eternal status. Taking the lowest place was not demeaning - because of what He knew about Himself… The all-powerful Jesus performed a distasteful task displaying ultimate humility and servanthood… leaving us a lasting example and a picture of God’s heart toward humanity.

MORTGAGE MATTERS
Refinancing Your Mortgage
By Gavin Lynch – Yes Mortgages
Refinancing your mortgage is the process of changing your mortgage lending from your existing lender to a new lender. Refinancing is a common practice for any of these reasons: • You don’t like the lender you are with. You’ve experienced poor service, problems with staff, or high account fees. • You want to borrow more money but the lender won’t allow it. Perhaps you want to consolidate debt, borrow to purchase a rental property or a vehicle, or put working capital into a business. • You have ‘outgrown’ your existing lender and want to move forward. This is common for self-employed people with a growing business, or for investors with an increasing portfolio. • Your lender has asked you to refinance. You may be in arrears with mortgage repayments or you need to restructure your mortgage. Refinancing can involve costs such as break fees from the existing lender, solicitors’ fees, valuation charges etc, but we can help get cash contributions from your new lender to help offset these costs. At Yes Mortgages, we can outline the costs involved and find the best new lender to fit your current situation from the 25 or so different lenders available. In most instances, our service is FREE to you. Generally the benefits of refinancing outweigh the costs involved but bear in mind: Refinancing your mortgage must benefit and add value to YOU. Let us do the work to find you the best lender for your situation.

Rights as a tenant
Letters…
Tree concerns
Seventeen days after three Dick St residents wrote a letter to the Waipa Mayor and councillors regarding the potential danger of certain shallow-rooted trees, a woman was tragically killed by one on Victoria Square. In this letter on May 3 we respectfully asked the Mayor and councillors to inspect the Dick St tree and then assure us the tree is safe. At this time we have had no reply, verbal or written from our elected representatives, although the Council arborist did reply stating “regular monitoring and maintenance is undertaken as required”. That does not make this tree safe. Waipā’s own Guide to Council Trees states that “a tree can only be considered for removal if it is a potential danger to life and property and is showing signs of structural defects”. This tree fits both those requirements. It is 25 metres high, extremely top heavy, shallow rooted and is supported with a steel cable brace at an approximate height of 8 metres So, if, and when it falls, it
will most likely destruct any one of four houses in its target area. These properties have together probably paid in the vicinity of $150,000 in rates over the past 20 years. Surely they deserve some action. I S Thomas Cambridge Council responds: The tree is a red oak, a landmark, heritage tree thought to have been planted when the town of Cambridge was established. It has been regularly inspected and maintained as part of Council’s tree monitoring and maintenance programme. At the last inspection the tree (between 18-20m high) was found to be in good health. This latest inspection included use of a sonic tomograph to get 3D imaging. No structural defects were found, nor was there any suggestion of shallow roots. The tree will be programmed for inspection by a specialist arborist again this winter as part of our regular monitoring programme. Council trees in urban areas are inspected, maintained and
recorded regularly to ensure they are kept in line with best practice. The reference to the passing of Margaret Evelyn is unfortunate. The tree that fell on her was not shallow-rooted; nor was it in poor health. Nonetheless we appreciate residents near large trees may be concerned given what has occurred.
Lake plan
When I first visited Lake Koo Utu in 1965 it was far different and more pleasant than my next visit in 2019. It contained very little vegetation and was not surrounded by huge deciduous trees with their Autumn leaves. Today it is a shallow lake inhabited by too much vegetation, ducks and exotic fish such as carp and catfish. It relies almost entirely on storm water, contaminated with petroleum and heavy metals. Exotic catfish outcompete all others, while the carp, being bottom feeders, stir up the bottom and make the water cloudy. When I visited there was virtually no visible inflow except
for a large blue drain below Lake St. I thought that a suspicious source. Recently much has been written on cleaning up this treasure. I reject the plans so far proposed as skirting around the problem whilst spending serious sums of rate payers money. In a nutshell the lake lacks clean water inflow. With the Waikato River merely 1000m away I would recommend new water be pumped to the lake and introduced via a spectacular fountain. Maybe not necessary all year around so I would suggest another fountain to aerate the natural water. Dredge the silt, cull the fish life and many of the ducks, remove much of the vegetation and divert all the storm water. Then gradually replace the exotic trees with natives. How much? I suspect very little compared to current plans. When complete our special lake could resemble Pukekura Park in New Plymouth, that cities most visited venue. Murray Reid Cambridge

Cambridge High signs Herbert Former All Whites coach Ricki Herbert is teaming up with Cambridge High as the school sees a boom in the sport’s popularity. The Ricki Herbert Football Academy has formed a partnership to help the school football programme as about one in 10 students take up the sport. It’s become the school’s largest co-ed sport with about 175 boys and girls playing for teams ranging recreational to competitive. Herbert, who moved to Cambridge in 2017, will oversee a programme to help develop the skills of coaches of the 11 teams, and provide specialised support for four of the school teams. CHS football committee chair Jason Trower says the key has been to use the school’s values as the guiding principles for how football is coached and played. “We’ve made huge
progress in the last few years, not only in terms of our playing numbers but in what our students are achieving through football,” he says. “We’ve adopted a methodology we call great people through football – it becomes part of everything we do, and how we go about it,” Trower says. The school won the Waikato Secondary Schools’ first division in 2020 and finished fourth in the premier division last season. CHS were competitive against the likes of Hamilton Boys’ High – who were Waikato and national champions – and St John’s College and St Peters, Cambridge, both of whom traditionally fare well at national tournaments. Sixty-year-old Herbert says he loves “rolling up my sleeves and working with young footballers”. “I’ve been most impressed
Ricki Herbert talks to Cambridge High players during a coaching session
by the attitude of the coaches, players and support people at CHS – now it’s a case of providing the technical support to help them on game day and on the training pitch.”

Cambridge’s Dylan Yearbury has all but wrapped up his defence of the the New Zealand Enduro title. He won both rounds one and two of the Yamahasponsored event over the long Queen’s Birthday Weekend and all that remains is for the third and final round to be fought out, near Martinborough on Sunday. Yearbury finished ahead of Palmerston North’s Paul Whibley and Taupo’s Brad Groombridge on Saturday and edged out Taupo’s Wil Yeoman and Kaukapakapa’s Josh Jack on Monday. Only two of three rounds are counted in the battle for individual class honours, and, in that respect, it means Yearbury (over-300cc two-stroke class), Whibley (veterans’ over-40 years), Yeoman (under-300cc fourstroke), New Plymouth’s Sam Parker (under-200cc twostroke) and Omihi’s Ethan McBreen (over-300cc fourstroke) already have those class trophies in the bag.
