O’Regan v Mylchreest: it’s a mayoral contest – see page 3 Waipā recycling sabotaged by

‘Blatant laziness’ By Benjamin Wilson

Bags of blood, human faeces, pig heads, and dead cats. These are some of the horrors that Waipā residents have left for people like Pare Te Huia to sort, by hand, out of their recycling. “It is absolutely disgusting,” said Te Huia. She is the second leading hand at Metallic Sweeping, the company who collect and sort the district’s recycling. She and two other workers vomited last week after human faeces were smeared across their sorting line. “People need to see what those people up there (on the sorting line) are dealing with on a daily basis,” said site operations manager, Rob Hamblin. He said they encounter contamination every day. Last year, it cost the resource recovery company up to $40,000 a month to dispose of recycling that had been contaminated. Used engine oil, chlorine, live ammunition, un-emptied gasoline containers, needles, transfusion bags, whiteware, car parts, paint, and the body parts of dead animals, are all things that have contributed to this. Trevor Sheldon, Metallics Sweeping national operations manager, said that during transportation, one contaminated recycling bin can contaminate up to 500 houses worth of recycling. “All that has to go to landfill,” he said. “It is a national problem; it is not a Waipā only problem. But it seems to be more intense here than some other places.” Hamblin said the district’s worst offenders are Kihikihi and Leamington, but reiterates that at large, it is the entire community who is responsible. The poor recycling habits of parents are

setting a bad example for their children, said Te Huia. “Is that the type of education that our tamariki will be brought up with?” she asked. The day after human faeces contaminated their sort line last week, a bucket of paint did the same thing, causing the company to halt all processes for 45 minutes while they cleaned the mess up. “We are trying to make a difference. We are trying to leave something for future generations. But we are just battering our heads up against the fricking wall,” Hamblin said. Mincemeat also made its way to the sort line last week, causing another shutdown. “Over the last week, my staff have had an absolute gutsful… basically, what they are telling me is ‘if you can’t get this problem sorted out, we don’t want to work here anymore.’ And, if we don’t have the staff to work it, we can’t pick up your recycling,” said Hamblin. Pickups from around 30 Waipā houses were suspended last year, due to repeated misuse of the service. Jennifer Braithwaite, the council’s operations team leader, called the behaviour blatant laziness. “They know very well they shouldn’t be putting these things into their recycling,” she said. “They need to stop this; this is not the service we provide. This is not what these people were employed to do.” She said things like medical waste should be double bagged or placed into sharps containers before they’re sent to landfill, owners of industrial containers used for oil or solvents, should consult transfer stations before disposal. And, if people are unsure of what to do with their materials, the council has information on what can and can’t be recycled online. Continued on page 6

No ordinary man By Roy Pilott

There are times when writers are rewarded beyond their wildest dreams for going the extra mile. In researching for one of his books while in Britain, Graeme Woodfield was given access to a treasure trove of information, including extensive diary notes, written by Arthur Porritt. Whanganui born Porritt, who died in 1994, was an Olympic Games 100 metre bronze medal winner, a Rhodes Scholar and surgeon, a member of the House of Lords – and New Zealand’s Governor General from 1967 to 1972. Woodfield teamed up with Joseph Romanos to tell Porritt’s story – No Ordinary Man, in 2008. Woodfield has also penned a book on a second great athlete, Jack Lovelock, a thought provoking 2020 analysis of our alcohol consumption – Alcohol: a dangerous affair - with George Seber, and a book of poetry. And as he sat in his office in his Tamahere home, pointing to a picture of his favourite mountain, Aspiring, he quipped there was enough information for a second

book on Porritt – and another book of poetry is close. But it’s not his writing that the octogenarian was celebrated for in the Queen’s Birthday Honours this month. He was made Companion of the New Zealand Order of Merit for services to transfusion medicine. Like Porritt, Graeme Woodfield is no ordinary man. His work in the blood service field, and establishing services, has been on a national and international stage and he is recognised as an international expert in transfusion medicine by the World Health Organisation. He is a Life Member of the Australian and New Zealand Society of Blood Transfusion. The Geraldine born doctor spent four and a half years as a house surgeon in Auckland before heading to Scotland, where he became a member of the Royal College of Physicians of Edinburgh. From there he was offered the role of Director of Blood Services Libya – where he treated Muammar Gaddafi – before leaving to take up a new role which lasted five years in Papua

New Guinea. His next move was back to New Zealand in 1976 and he was, for the next 20 years, voluntary Medical Advisor and Executive member of the Red Cross Society Auckland branch. He says New Zealand has one of the best donor services in the world. The service requires 4000 donations a week to ensure there is enough plasma and blood stocks – but just three in every 100 people donate. A total of 28 per cent of blood donated is used to treat medical conditions and in surgery – and 26 per cent is used for cancer patients. He and wife Annabell – they

celebrated their 60th wedding anniversary in December – moved to Tamahere from Ōrākei in 2017 when they purchased their son Mike’s home. Mike – a plastic surgeon in Hamilton – moved a short distance up the road. The couple are members of the St Stephen’s church community in Tamahere and neither drink. “We both come from Baptist households,” he said. He recalls as a youth being in a car that crashed – and alcohol was the major factor. “I’ve seen the rages of alcohol – best not to.”

On the beat with Senior Constable DEB THURGOOD Youths and parental responsibility Matariki is upon us and along with the various celebrations, it brings a new public holiday for 2022. If you are taking advantage of the long weekend and going away, remember that car roadworthiness and a defensive approach to driving is key to arriving at your destination safely. You will have all seen reports of the recent fatal crash that occurred near Nelson. Such tragic crashes happen all too often, including in our district. Last week my colleague and I responded to a report of a vehicle driving dangerously northbound between Tirau and Cambridge. As is often the case, locating and stopping the car highlighted other offending including a vehicle not up to WOF standards, a breach of court bail conditions plus the presence of illicit drugs and ammunition. The driver is now being dealt with through the court. Stopping this vehicle also almost certainly prevented a crash. The person who called police was visibly shaken by the situation as she held genuine fears that the vehicle would lead to a serious crash

happening in front of her. She had already observed it to have two near misses while on the highway. Calling in dangerous driving to 111 when it is happening and sooner rather than later is so important to helping reduce our road toll. Last week I spoke about youth crime and asked parents to be aware of where their teens were and with whom they were hanging out. The day after my column went to print was a teacher only day for Cambridge, resulting in many families having to make arrangements for care of their school age children. That day I found myself responding to a disorder job, reported as involving up to 15 young people made up of two groups, running through aisles and trying to fight in one of our local shops. Disappointingly the youth in this case appeared predominantly aged 10-13yrs. Legally, a child under 14 years of age must be under supervision. At 10-13 years, being left to roam the town and parks with their friends for an indeterminant period of

time, does not equate to adequate supervision. Children are inherently vulnerable and do not have the life experience to handle challenging situations. As in this case, a lack of supervision can also lead them to get up to no good. While children over 14yrs can legally supervise those younger, it remains the parent or guardian’s responsibility to ensure there is a proper level of care. Please ensure you plan ahead for the July school holidays childcare. We need your community support, especially from parents, to help reduce youth crime. Still on the topic of youth, we regularly have reports of children becoming victims of cyber-bullying, most often through messages sent by peers or older youth. Cyber-bullying means that old school playground bullying follows the victim wherever they go and can have lasting and damaging emotional and physical effects. Visit netsafe.org.nz for tips on how to keep your children safe and how to report it should it occur.

Briefs… Regional rates set

Waikato Regional Council rates will levy $121.7 million from ratepayers for the year starting July 1, a rise of 7.7 per. WaipāKing Country councillor Andrew MacPherson voted for the increase but said the council needed to put more in its Annual Plan about the realism of the current situation facing ratepayers.

Health change

Waikato District Health Board will merge into Health New Zealand next week and become part of Te Manawa Taki region comprising four other DHBs, Lakes, Bay of Plenty, Tairāwhiti and Taranaki, previously known as the Midland DHBs. A new Public Health Agency led by chief executive Dr Andrew Old, takes over control of public and population health next.

Highway closure

sWork to make State Highway 1 (SH1) Waikato Expressway safer at Tamahere will get underway next week, with two overnight closures planned – on June 29 and 30 - so temporary steel barriers can be installed. SH1 will be closed overnight between Hillcrest intersection and the Cambridge interchange for two nights in a row. The closure will only affect one direction of traffic at a time, southbound lane first, followed by the northbound. While SH1 is closed at Tamahere, all traffic will be detoured

O’Regan challenges Mylchreest By Mary Anne Gill

Susan O’Regan is putting her political career on the line with an “all or nothing” run at the Waipā mayoralty. Twelve weeks after she announced she was getting out of local politics to work in the private sector, she has had a change of heart and wants to lead the community she was born and grew up in. O’Regan, 50, a sitting councillor of six years and chair of the powerful Strategic Planning and Policy committee, will not stand for council but will be the first person in six years to challenge four-term mayor Jim Mylchreest, 69. O’Regan announced in April she was standing down from her Kakepuku ward because she felt she had served her constituents well and someone else should have the chance to do the same. “It's super important that representation does not become stale, and I wanted to leave the seat on a high note. “I thought that it might be time for me to re-enter the private sector. I was

wrong and realised so within days. “I still have a lot of energy to give and want to serve the wider Waipā community,” she said. “It actually took starting to step away from local government to realise that now is not the time to leave public service. “I had an honest conversation with my new-found colleagues and said that my heart was still in local government.” O’Regan has politics seeping through her veins – she studied it at Otago University and her mother Katherine, who died in 2018, was a Member of Parliament for 15 years. An award-winning dairy farmer, she and husband John Hayward have a blended family of five children – Emily 23, George and Ben 20, Lily 12 and Jack 7. Before her election to council in 2016, O’Regan was a practising barrister in Te Awamutu specialising in family law. “I'm standing for mayor because it's time for change. As a district, we have a lot to be thankful for. In most areas, council is doing a reasonable job. Our direction of travel - where

we are headed strategically - is good. But there are some key areas of improvement which need to be made,” she said. Communications is something O’Regan has taken a particular interest in. Last week she told The News she was unhappy with the way the council communicated its dog policy

review. Hundreds of people took to social media when the council said it was looking at banning dogs from Lake Te Koo Utu in Cambridge and Memorial Park in Te Awamutu. In fact, the council is not looking to ban dogs from those popular spots but limit them to dogs on leashes. “We need to make it easier for people to deal with council. Council needs to communicate much more effectively - and that includes listening to our community much more actively. “And we need to focus on a future Waipā which is exciting, attractive and a viable option for young people once they enter the workforce,” she said. Nominations for Waipā council open on July 15 and close at noon on August 12. The public will elect a new Māori ward councillor, four in Cambridge, one for Maungatautari, three in Te Awamutu-Kihikihi and two in Pirongia-Kakepuku. Candidates will also line up for community boards in Cambridge and Te Awamutu. The mayor is elected from the whole district.

Debate over fluoride flares By Mary Anne Gill

Public health officials have identified Waipā as a place they want to see community water fluoridation introduced this year. And the first community cab off the rank is likely to be in Cambridge, Water Services manager Martin Mould told the Service Delivery committee this week. But some committee members said they were furious about the plans before the community had been consulted. “We want meaningful consultation,” said deputy mayor Liz Stolwyk. Waipā’s water has never been fluoridated – nor debated by council in several years - but the passing of the Health (Fluoridation of Drinking Water) Act last year transferred the authority from district councils to the Ministry of Health and its public health officials. Adding fluoride to water

supplies is a measure to help prevent tooth decay – and it makes a “significant difference”, according to the Ministry of Health. Sources have told The News, Waipā children are waiting on average three years to be seen by a dentist. The last time any significant research was done on dental decay rates in Waipā was in 2015 and it revealed eight in 1000 Waipa children had been hospitalised for dental caries and dental caries were twice as common in Māori children than non-Māori. The last time any significant investment in prevention of decay in Waipā children’s teeth was done 15 years ago when some dental clinics were closed and replaced by mobile dental vans. The council has six water treatment plants and last year told The News adding fluoride would cost ratepayers $1.2 million upfront and about $60,000 a year.

Mould said the Ministry of Health, which becomes Health NZ next week, contacted all councils in December to check out their preparedness for community water fluoridation. “This included estimated costs and timelines to install fluoride dosing capability.” Waipā had no plans or funding to introduce fluoridation in the Long Term Plan, staff told the ministry and said it would cost $400,000 per plant. The estimated costs for Cambridge, which would include the Karāpiro and Alpha Street plants, would be $480,000 with annual operating costs of $130,000. Some funding would be available to support local authorities with the capital costs associating with introducing community water fluoridation. The estimated time for implementation after receiving a directive to fluoridate water, is nine

months. “Seeing this in my agenda raised my hackles,” said Stolwyk. Mayor Jim Mylchreest said he wanted the Ministry of Health to come and talk to the council about its plans. “What is the evidence which is requiring fluoridation in Cambridge? “Have we got a problem in Cambridge that needs addressing?” said Mylchreest. Cr Roger Gordon said community water fluoridation was a divided issue in the community. “We should do all we can to whoever is making this decision to say they need to come into the community and undergo real consultation.” Cr Mike Pettit said ratepayers wanted council to stand up to something like Three Waters and would expect the same about water fluoridation. If there were any public meetings needed, they would have to be well chaired

Water Services manager Martin Mould.

because “I can see this getting reasonably hostile”. Outgoing DirectorGeneral of Health Dr Ashley Bloomfield has told other local authorities that adding fluoride to water supplies would reduce the prevalence and severity of dental decay. There were significant opportunities for improvement as there were inequitable oral health outcomes between Māori and non-Māori, he said.

Major grants went on the water - $50,000 for the week-long Dragon Boat Festival next April and $20,000 for the Waka Ama national sprint championships in January – both to be held at Lake Karāpiro.

Koran in te reo for Cambridge By Viv Posselt

A copy of the Muslim holy book translated into te reo Māori – the Koran, or Kur’anu Tapu – has been gifted to Cambridge by members of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community. The book was presented to Waipā District councillor Philip Coles by Waikato Imam and Discover Islam New Zealand chief executive, Sabah Al-Zafar. He was accompanied by fellow members of the Hamilton chapter of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, colleagues who have for the past few years assisted in the Discover Islam NZ roadshow, alongside the True Islam campaign. The focus of both campaigns has been to inform New Zealand communities about the Islamic religion and Muslim life. Al-Zafar said the intent has been to “eradicate extremism and negative

sentiment” about Islam. “Our motto is ‘Love for all, hatred for none’. The majority of New Zealanders we meet during these campaigns are extremely kind and appreciative of what we are doing,” he said. “Where we have come across hostility, and there has been very little, we know it is through misunderstanding and respond with compassion. We are trying to build bridges… to spread love.” The Ahmadiyya Muslim Community is an international religious organisation with branches around the world and many millions of members. It was established in New Zealand in 1987. The community in New Zealand started working on translating the Koran some 20 years ago. The holy book is considered the most precious thing to Muslims, and it was believed that by translating it into te reo, it demonstrated the Muslims’ respect

for the Māori community and helped share something particularly meaningful with New Zealand. The work was done by the late Pakistaniborn physicist Shakil Ahmad Monir who worked extensively with Māori language experts. Coles said an earlier presentation of the book had been made to Waipā mayor Jim

Mylchreest and Pirongia ward councillor, Clare St Pierre, representing that side of the district. A copy has also been placed in Cambridge Library. “It is a privilege to receive a copy here on behalf of the council and the Cambridge community,” he said. “I will take it to council and work out where we are going to display it.”

‘Blatant laziness’

Continued from page 1

“Clean, washed-out recycling, that is the service that we provide. It is not a rubbish service, and it is not a free for all, for people to put whatever they want into those bins.” Hamblin said a worker was once stabbed by a needle. They had to wait 14 days before their doctor could tell them that they weren’t infected with anything. “They’ve all got families they want to go home to. They don’t want to get sick from human faeces or catch something off syringes or medical waste. What is it going to take until people wake up and realise this has got to change?” Information about recycling is available at waipadc.govt.nz

Rob Hamblin said his workers could be infected, if they were stabbed by a used syringed like this one.

Business Showcase

Award Award Winning Winning Quality Craftsmanship FromDesigner Maple & Stone Kitchen Kitchen Designer E && Manufacturer Manufacturer ighteen months ago, Daniel Billings made a bold move to shake up the design world by starting a business that took client collaboration into the stratosphere.

He opened Maple & Stone in Rukuhia, a company that not only designs bespoke kitchens and cabinetry, but also manufactures and fits the finished product. While high-end design and exquisite craftsmanship are at the nub of the operation, close collaboration with the client − and with the architects and builders linked to the project − make for an unusual pairing. It’s an end-to-end approach that is

winning them a growing clientele across the region and beyond. “Interior designers generally do that side of the operation, and manufacturers do theirs,” Daniel explains.

“It is quite unusual to have the two working as one. It makes for a much more client-centric enterprise.” Maple & Stone tackles bespoke kitchen and cabinetry projects, for both new-builds and renovations. Their range includes wine rooms, television units, beautiful shelving and seating options, wardrobes, vanities, featured window seats and more. It also does full interior

Quarry consents on hold By Mary Anne Gill

Nine of the 13 major resource consent applications received by Waipā District Council in the last quarter are on hold pending further information. They include plans to operate a sand quarry in Ōhaupō, extend one in Karāpiro and change consent conditions for another in Kaipaki. But the application to retrospectively grant a resource consent to Beacon Hill Contracting, who unlawfully operated a sand quarry in Maungatautari resulting in the resignation of district councillor and quarry co-owner Elwyn AndreeWiltens, is being processed. The council’s Regulatory Committee met this week in Te Awamutu. Four of the 13 applications related to sand quarries but do not include one for RS Sand Ltd which has yet to lodge its application to establish a giant quarry on the outskirts of Cambridge near the Cambridge golf course, Consents team leader Quentin Budd said. Demand for sand has intensified in recent years as construction activity intensifies, particularly in the upper North Island. Waipā district has a wealth of soil suitable for the gravel and sand quarrying industry, worth about $434 million nationally every year. But that demand, which is expected to increase resulting in higher profit margins for industry operators, often attracts opposition from residents concerned about the environmental implications. Budd told the committee no resource consent applications were heard by Hearing Panels in the quarter starting January 1, but one consent was granted by an independent commissioner. That was the removal of a protect black walnut tree in Le Quesnoy Place, Cambridge. Mitchell Daysh, Hamilton-based resource management specialists, are handling three of the four quarry applications. They are for Rukuhia Land Company for a new sand quarry at 3558 Ōhaupō Road, Beacon Hill’s retrospective application at 599 Oreipunga Road and Shaws application for change consent conditions at 928 Kaipaki Road. The Taotaoroa Quarry application near Karāpiro seeks to

extend its pit area for 35 years and is a concurrent application with Waikato Regional Council and Matamata-Piako District Council. Three applications are ‘in process’ including one at 401 Ariki Street in Karāpiro. The property previously housed the Power House café, restaurant, bar and conference centre which closed more than five years ago. The application seeks to establish a visitor accommodation facility and undertake additions and alterations to a Category B building. The property, a few hundred metres from the dam and Lake Karāpiro, the country’s premier aquatic sporting hub, housed

administration staff during the power station’s construction in the 1940s. The other applications on hold, most awaiting further information, include: • Global Contracting Solutions’ plan to build and operate a plant to generate power in Te Awamutu • A 20-unit subdivision in Hall Street, Kihikihi • Two subdivisions in Pirongia • A 77-lot subdivision in Te Awamutu • Three storey mixed used development in Te Awamutu • A function and events centre in Maungatautari Rd, Leamington.

FAITH IN WAIPĀ

Right or wrong… By Murray Smith, Senior Leader, Bridges Church

Navigating your way through life can be a minefield of determining right from wrong and figuring out which ‘rules’ or ‘boundaries’ in life are inviolable, which are less binding and what is a matter of free choice. When I started secondary school my uniform code included wearing a cap. This meaningless accessory dated from 100 years of tradition. The ‘cap wearing rules’, were nonnegotiable and to disregard them incurred punishment. Entering as a third former (Year Nine), I wore and safeguarded my cap diligently. As time went by, that strange bit of cloth on my head mattered less. It had a little knob on the top of it and to still have it intact after a month or two of starting secondary school was a badge of honour. Until caps were abolished, older boys imposed on third formers, the strange long held rite-ofpassage called “de-knobbing.” The point is, ‘cap wearing,’ like many rules, held mere cultural relevance rather than holding any great moral virtue. Nonetheless, that said, society does have rules which must be respected in order to make life itself work. As I write this I’ve just observed out of my office window, a car swerve across the median line over onto the opposite side of the road because the driver wanted to avoid slowing down and having to drive over judder bars positioned in the middle of his own lane. This driver’s scary manoeuvre forced a vehicle in the oncoming traffic lane, to take evasive action. We have road rules that govern how we drive. Rules maximise safe usage of our

roadways. This ‘road code’ informs everything about how we drive, demanding we stay in our lane and govern our speed. If respected and adhered to, it affords everyone with protection. We disregard the rules, to our own peril as well as jeopardising the welfare of others. It’s the same in every area of life. A ‘life code’ of essential rules providing us with ‘absolutes’ or boundaries to govern our behaviours and activities, has been supplied by God as an objective plumbline - a standard of right and wrong, We ignore this to our detriment. Lying, theft, jealousy, dishonouring parents, violence, drunkenness, blasphemous talk, hatred, selfishness, sexual perversion, or any form of abusing others, represent a few violations of His timeless boundaries. You don’t need much ‘awareness’ to see the blurring and re-inventing of right and wrong occurring before our eyes. Unlike trivial ‘cap wearing’ there’s multiple traditional moral values such as those within marriage, gender ideology and a host of other arenas that are being challenged and eroded today. At school I quickly learned that to understand maths, it is not possible to insist on having my own truth. I learned that 2x2 always equals 4. Whether accepted or not, that objective truth remains. Believing that there can only be one right answer is not being a narrow bigot neither is it ‘hate speech’ to choose to hold onto the truth. After all, the truth sets us free.

Town Hall trust takes control A lease and service agreement has finally been signed between the Cambridge Town Hall Community Trust and Waipā District Council, 14 months after the trust’s first meeting. Trust chair Kirsty Johnson hinted at one of the reasons for the delay in her presentation to the council’s Finance and Corporate committee this week when she said bylaws allowed only two uses a year for the piazza. Piazzas are central gathering places or town squares. The Cambridge Town Hall area has been used successfully in the past for Chamber of Commerce long lunches. After her presentation, Johnson told The News the trust’s relationship with the council was such they could jointly overcome issues like that. Three of the trustees initially appointed early last year have since left the trust – Maxine

Nelson, Dick Breukink and Mary Anne Gill, while Lee Ann Muntz, who was appointed late last year, has also resigned due to work commitments. Former Waipā communication and engagement manager Charlotte FitzPatrick, who is now out on her own as a public relations practitioner and Rocketspark head of Partnerships Jason Tiller are now on the trust with Johnson, Rob Feisst, Antanas Procuta and Jenny Cave. The lease and service agreement was signed on Monday and empowers the trust to take over running the Town Hall from the council. Day to day administration will continue to be operated by Destination Cambridge but Johnson said the trust was “very transparent” in its processes and would go to the open market in a year to test if there were other options.

She said the trust hoped to recruit a chief executive/general manager soon and put a project manager in on a fixed term to manage the refurbishment activity in the Victorian and Edwardian rooms. A community workshop earlier this year identified the kitchen, lack of technology, liquor licensing arrangements, security and general maintenance as priorities for the Town Hall. Other “activation” events planned include a local body election candidate evening, Town Hall tour and community engagement and sponsorship/ funder events. Branding and a heightened digital presence are on the work plan. A more recent get together with iwi showed the trust it needed to be clear about how mana whenua fitted into the future of the hall. “We need to ensure the

community is taken on a journey with us,” said Johnson. The trust budget showed a $380,000 shortfall for the year starting July 1 which would initially be funded by council grants. Deputy mayor Liz Stolwyk, who

was instrumental in getting the trust established, thanked the trust members who are all volunteers and had done an incredible amount of work in a short time. There had also been a real commitment from council staff, she said.

Council back predator attacks Waikato Regional Council has granted $2.076 million to four landscape scale predator control projects in the region – including one at Sanctuary Mountain Maungatautari and another which benefits from it. At last week’s council meeting on Thursday, the council approved funding to: • Maungatautari Ecological Island Trust for its Sharing the Mauri and Mana of Maungatautari project ($1,476,275 over four years) • Thames Kiwi Coast Care Inc to expand Thames coast predator control and habitat protection ($270,000 over four years) • Waikato Environment Centre Trust for its Bush to Burbs project ($129,517 over three years) • Mahakirau Forest Estate Society for its Trilogy of Treasured Tonga project ($201,000 over four years). The purpose of the Natural Heritage Fund is to help implement the council’s commitment

to preserving the natural heritage of the region – native plants and animals, threatened ecosystems, outstanding landscapes and the natural character of waterways and the coast. Natural heritage projects are designed to protect and enhance the ecological assets for the people of the region. The Natural Heritage Fund has been in place since 2005 and is derived from the Natural Heritage Targeted Rate of $5.80 per property. The funding for Maungatautari will help cover the cost of maintaining Sanctuary Mountain Maungatautari’s pest proof fence and detect and remove invasive pests. The total cost of maintaining Maungatautari’s predator free status is $5.4 million over four years. Waikato Regional Council Deputy Chair Kataraina Hodge says Sanctuary Mountain Maungatautari is an internationally significant conservation project that has contributed to

the recovery of a range of threatened species such as kiwi, hihi and tīeke, and looks to reintroduce to the maunga further species extinct from the mainland such as kākāpō. “The trust has been a significant beneficiary of the Natural Heritage Fund to date and has made excellent progress with achieving its ambitious vision as a key site in the recovery of New Zealand’s threatened species and the restoration of functioning ecosystems,” she said. The Bush to Burbs (B2B) project aims to create safe corridors for the increasing numbers of birds spilling out from Maungatautari into the north of the maunga. The project area, from Sanctuary Mountain to Cambridge, is about 11,578 hectares and includes Lake Kārapiro and Roto-o-Rangi and Pukekura to the west. The project will promote and coordinate predator control by private landowners. It borders the Te Taiea te Taiao restoration

project along the Mangapiko Stream, which is about creating safe corridors between Sanctuary Mountain and Mt Pirongia. The funding will help cover the costs of traps and a small amount of advocacy and liaison time. The total cost of the project is $1.01 million. Cr Hodge says there is considerable pest control efforts already happening by urban trappers in Cambridge township, and this project supports their efforts. “There has been no coordinated possum control in this area since the mid-2000s when TB possum control was stopped. Bush to Burbs will essentially pick up where this work left off but with a Predator Free vision to build considerable biodiversity gains by controlling possums, rats and mustelids. “This project will be further supported by planting and weed control projects by landowners with help from our catchment management officers.”

Ride on: Leo’s big target Plato’s influence on

By Steph Bell-Jenkins

‘Outside the comfort zone is where you grow.’ “It was a saying on the Nutri-Grain box,” says Leo Piper, when The News asks if he’s daunted by the prospect of cycling for six hours straight. The gutsy 10-year-old is gearing up to tackle this challenge on July 8 to raise money for the Cancer Society. “Leo’s a very kind and generous person,” said his mother Jude Fitness. “So we thought this would be a way to combine his passion for cycling with his desire to help people. He’s going to set up his stationary bike in the Leamington School hall and pedal for the whole school day, only stopping for toilet breaks. It had to be a hard push to make it a fundraiser but not outside his capabilities.” Leo’s grandmother, Lois Fitness, died of breast cancer before he was born. “She was all about family and

she was a huge sports nut just like Leo is,” Jude said. “She would have been really proud of him.” Jude estimates Leo will cover about 150km on the stationary bike if he lasts the whole six hours – about the distance from Cambridge to Auckland’s CBD. She and Leo realise it’s difficult for people to give money at the moment, but are

hoping the town will get behind their campaign to raise $10,000. “It might be a bit ambitious but we thought we’d aim high,” Jude said. “And if everybody in Cambridge donated $1 we’d hit the target easy. So I encourage everyone to just chuck a buck in.” So far Leo, who has been training since March, has already raised more than $1500. Despite his cereal box philosophising, he admits he is daunted about cycling for so long. His pride is on the line and some of his mates don’t think he can do it. He’s not even sure himself. But his mum has faith. “I think on the day his stubbornness will get him through, because he’s quite pig headed once he’s got a goal,” Jude said. “Probably the worst case scenario is that he’ll have a really sore bum.” People who want to “chuck in a buck” for Leo will find a givealittle page called Leos-gift.

A special mention for Jarrod

By Mary Anne Gill

Ask any cyclist at the Cambridge Velodrome who the most important person on the track is and most would point towards Jarrod Gilbert. As a world class competitor himself, the 28-year-old Cambridge caretaker understands the importance of getting the job right and it is this dedication to perfection that has seen him appointed a Special Olympics’ athlete leader. Jarrod lives in Karāpiro, works at the Velodrome in Cambridge and competes for the Te Awamutu Special Olympics stable under the watchful eye of the legendary swimming coach Shelley Blair. The two are in training for the National Summer Games in Hamilton from December 8-12. Shelley has 20 swimmers from the club in training for the games. Jarrod, who won a gold and bronze medal in snowboarding at the Special Olympics World Winter Games in Austria five years ago,

Special Olympian Jarrod Gilbert from Te Awamutu Special Olympics at the Velodrome.

will compete in the 25m and 50m freestyle, 25m backstroke and 4 x 25m freestyle relay. During the week, his caretaking duties at the Velodrome include maintaining the track for the cyclists and that means making sure there are no splinters in the wood. “They are like little sharp needles, they fall out of the wood

and if they get in their tyres, they get really grumpy and the mechanics have to find a new tyre,” he explained. His tool of trade is a big red mop which he pushes around the track. The rest of the time he is a valued member of the Home of Cycling Trust staff. As one of five athlete leaders, Jarrod will participate in four

workshops throughout the year culminating in their graduation at Parliament. It gives him and the other athletes from Canterbury, Marlborough, Auckland and Whangārei the chance to develop their leadership skills. It gives them the tools to go back to their clubs and to continue their roles as leaders within Special Olympics and in the wider community. “I want to learn more about the Special Olympics (myself), and I just want to get the awareness out there just to make people aware of what Special Olympics is all about,” said Jarrod. Special Olympics was founded in 1968 by one of US President John F. Kennedy’s sisters, Eunice Kennedy Shriver. It is the world’s largest sports’ organisation for children and adults with intellectual and physical disabilities. Nearly 3.3 million athletes from 200 countries compete in 30,000 competitions each year. Shriver’s passion came from her own family. Her older

sister Rosemary had an intellectual disability. Special Olympics New Zealand sent its first athletes away in 1983 to the World Summer Games in the United States. Today Special Olympics New Zealand has more than 6500 athletes and 3000 volunteers. The nationals will bring more than 1500 athletes and coaches and 600 volunteers to Hamilton for four days in 10 sports across eight venues. Swimming will be at Waterworld in Te Rapa. Preparation for the nationals has been hindered by Covid but both Shelley and Jarrod say that is no excuse because all the athletes are in the same situation. Shelley has been a Special Olympics swim coach since January 2005. The former Cambridge High School student is the Supported Activities and Supported Employment service manager for Te Awamutu-based disability organisation Enrich Plus.

Mud and glory By Mary Anne Gill

Appalling weather conditions meant the much anticipated “sea of red and white” at Hautapu’s Memorial Park in Cambridge on Saturday was more a small wave - but those who did participate, made a notable difference. Hautapu juniors from hockey, netball and rugby formed a guard of honour for the premier and senior B rugby sides who both played, and beat, Ōtorohanga.

The premiers won 27-10 and the senior Bs sneaked home 21-20, no doubt boosted by the support from the sideline. The under 21 team was also supposed to play but Waitete defaulted the match. Hautapu Sports junior rugby director Josh Bull said it was a special day for all players. The grin on captain Hamilton Burr’s face as he ran through the guard of honour showed how important it was to him. After the run through the juniors were treated to sausages, bread, chips and a drink

at the northern end of the ground. Hautapu finished Saturday’s Waikato senior club rugby in the top four after Te Awamutu was beaten 22-21 by University. The 2020 champions beat Ōtorohanga 27-10. It was the second week in succession that Te Awamutu had lost by the odd point. Fraser Tech’s 65-5 win over Melville sent them back to the top of the table because Hamilton Marist fell 34-31 at Matamata. Old Boys – the only side to celebrate a win this season over Tech, remained third thanks to a 24-15 win over Morrinsville. In the first division Leamington fell further off the pace, losing 17-8 at Suburbs, but Pirongia and Ōhaupō both won to keep the pressure on competition leaders, Tokoroa’s Southern United.

Schools return to battle The battle of the Waipā high schools saw Te Awamutu College, St Peter’s and Cambridge High back competing on the sporting fields for the first time in four years last week. It was Cambridge that prevailed, but each school agreed it was more about the opportunity to get together again and let the Year Nine and 10 students get a feel for inter-school competition. Cambridge High School student sports’ committee spokesperson Jeremy Wright said it was “really great to see the competitive nature coming back into the school and the pride the students have for their schools.”

Senior students from the three schools led the teams and umpired various games and activities. Students enjoyed the competition. Sports events included badminton, lacrosse, three x three basketball, rugby sevens, table tennis, Fast 5 netball, volleyball, football and rock climbing. Cultural events were chess, MasterChef, general knowledge and theatre sports. Cambridge edged home to win the Battle of Waipā Trophy. The competition will take place next year in Te Awamutu.

I am a Cambridge mum of two young boys. I love everything to do with natural healing, health and fitness. I just qualified as a personal trainer and will be creating and starting my own business within the next 12 months. Being a ref may also open up doors for me as a personal trainer. My dad played rugby when I was little and I enjoyed going along to the rugby club every Saturday morning. My brother coaches his son and daughter’s team in Hamilton and has been for a few years now - he also used to play for College Old Boys. I like to be a part of growth and that’s what I see here, the kids as well as within myself - I can see this being an awesome journey.

Cambridge’s Boh Ritchie has again won a New Zealand Secondary Schools cross country title but was taken right to the line at Saxton Field in Nelson on Saturday. The St Peter’s School student, 15, won the 3km junior female event in 10m47s, only three seconds ahead of Waimea College’s Amelia Clark. Ritchie, who won the year nine title at the same event last year, is the national under 16 cross country champion and won the New Zealand under 18 mile title in 5:02.69. The St Peter’s three person and six person teams of Alyssa Tapper (fourth), Annabel Chapman (33rd), Lily Greenough (40th), Maddie Waddell (43rd) and Kirsty Donovan (62nd) won the three person and six person teams’ event for 3000m junior female.

By Gavin Lynch – Yes Mortgages In the present loan market, most lenders are changing their criteria in regards to what, how much and to whom they lend. This makes it even more important to use a mortgage broker so you know you are getting the right mortgage and right lender to suit your needs. I believe every client has a unique borrowing scenario and time needs to be taken with the client to understand and analyse this, so a correct lending plan and structure can be put in place to achieve goals. In this column, I want to explain briefly the role of the mortgage broker and what I can offer. The key role of the mortgage broker is to make the whole loan process easier for you, the client. This is possible because: I can look at all the lending options. I deal with more than 25 different lenders and work to find the best lender to suit your unique situation. • I can do all the ‘leg work’ with the lenders. • This saves you time and avoids pitfalls in getting a loan approved. • I can negotiate rates, fees, and legal contributions with certain lenders to obtain the best deal for the client. • I can meet at a convenient time and place for the client. • This can be in the home or workplace and after hours if need be. • I can advise on the best loan structure to suit the client’s need. And best of all using a broker is a free service in most cases. Now that has to be worth thinking about! If your looking for a mortgage, please give me a call on 823 4531 or 021 783 266 and I can help you though the whole process. gavin@yesmortgages.co.nz

The Mangauika Stream’s backwash pond showing the desludging process.

By Mary Anne Gill

A discharge into the Mangauika Stream near Pirongia, which supplies treated drinking water to Te Awamutu and Pirongia, has copped Waipā District Council a formal warning from Waikato Regional Council. The stream, which arises from Mount Pirongia and flows into the Waipā River, is downstream from the council’s Te Tahi Water Treatment Plant. On May 18, the backwash discharge flow rate exceeded the regional council’s resource consent limit for more than three hours. Water Services manager Martin Mould told the Service Committee this week the non-compliance was probably caused by the draining and desludging of the backwash pond the previous day. When the alarm went off about midday on May 18, the duty operator stopped the flow, notified the regional council and prepared an incident report. All discharge valves from the backwash pond had been shut down but flow rates continued. An inspection of the backwash pond chamber found an open valve in the scour drain. The flow rates exceeded the consented limit of 8.7 litres per second and reached a peak flow rate of 12.96 litres per second during the incident. Once that valve was turned off, the flow into the stream stopped. Readings taken at the discharge spot and downstream showed no evidence of any sludge discharges. The valve handle was removed on May 24 to prevent any other accidental opening, said Mould. Councillor Susan O’Regan said she was concerned it took so long for elected representatives to find out. The first she knew about it was when the Service Committee agenda was published. “With something as crucial as water supply, we need some really clear assurances,” she said, that there would not be other instances. The Pirongia reservoir was opened on the Maungauika Stream in 1914. The stream is a water quality and ecology site. It is hardbottomed with the stream bed consisting of cobbles and bounders while the predominant vegetation upstream is indigenous forest. The stream passes through dense native forest with no stock access and good riparian cover.
