TDC youth events ‘cost too much’ Andrew Board A mayoral candidate says he will ditch several councilsponsored events, including the Tasman Skatepark Tour and Tasman’s Got Talent, if elected, because they are a waste of money.

Kit Maling is a current councillor and is running for mayor against incumbent Richard Kempthorne and three other nominees.

He says the council has a huge problem with its debt and funding events like the skatepark tour costs around $240,000 of ratepayers money each year.

He says he will review them all if elected. “[The] council is undertaking a number of functions such as singing competitions, bike riding lessons and pre-school environmental education that are not core services and that can and should be undertaken by other agencies, and

often at a lower cost than the council can deliver them.”

The opposition to funding the events is just one part of Kit’s promise to review operational spending in an attempt to find savings, if he is elected.

But Richard Kempthorne believes the events are a vital part of the well being in the district and the money spent is such a small part in the overall picture that cutting it isn’t a priority.

“I think it’s money worth spending. That is not where significant rates increases have occurred. What that is doing is supporting our communities and our young people and I think supporting our young people is something I’ve come to realise is actually quite important.”

The Tasman Skatepark Tour involved dozens of young people earlier this year and

After being married for 70 years, a local couple say their wedding anniversary today is just like any other day.

Kath, 92, and Claude Teece, 95, first fell for each other while away on a fishing trip in their teens, and have been together ever since.

"We've had a few rough patches, but we just kept on trying, and here we are."

She says the day of their anniversary “sort of crept up” on them and the occasion was celebrated with a get SEE PAGE 2

“Maybe not the full amount.

If people want to put those events on then maybe council can contribute.”

Kath and Claude have always lived in Nelson or Motueka, with a stint on a farm near Upper Moutere.

The separation never did them any harm though says Claude, who was based out of Maadi Base in Cairo on the banks of the River Nile during the Sec-

While most spouses could probably list off a dozen annoying habits that their other half just can't seem to shake, this isn't the case for these two who are "the best of friends" and still get along famously.

"We are so used to each other that we don't notice. And if we haven't gotten used to each other by now then we never will," says Claude.

attracted hundreds more spectators.

It hosts eight events in towns and villages throughout the Tasman District each January. Other events include Sundial Jam, Tasman’s Got Talent and the Tasman Band Tour.

Despite his support, Richard says the council has already moved to make some cutbacks. “We have already cut back this year in this area. A lot of these events and activities give a lot to the community and we start to cut to the heart of the community [if we stop funding these events].”

Richard says all of the financial pressure comes from infrastructure.

“It’s roads, storm water and water supply and waste water.”

Local couple buy into Weekly Redwood Valley couple Craig and Sue Davies are now co-owners of Waimea Weekly.

The Davies join Richmond’s Steve Page and Jenny Bates as owners of the Weekly, maintaining its 100 per cent locally owned status. Sue has worked at the Weekly for five years before a six month break earlier this year but is back after

buying into the business.

Craig is a professional fireman, based at the Nelson Fire Station and they have three children, the youngest at Waimea College.

Sue says it was an exciting opportunity to be involved in a well-known and successful local business.

“I’ve worked for the Weekly for years and

am very passionate about it. I love working with local business owners and community groups and I’m really excited to be back.”

She says the opportunity to buy part of the business was too great for her and Craig. “It was a really great opportunity and we look forward to helping Waimea Weekly grow even further.”

Waimea Weekly publisher Steve Page says it’s great to have Sue back on board to help the business continue its growth.

“I call Sue my old fisherman’s wife, she’s great value and is a real asset to the business, as is Craig who’s already been doing plenty behind the scenes.”

Waimea Weekly was founded in 2005 and is the region’s only locally owned and operated newspaper – the region’s other newspapers, Nelson Mail and Leader, are owned by Australian publisher Fairfax.

Waimea Weekly also has a sister paper based in Nelson, called Nelson Weekly, which celebrated its third birthday this week. Steve says it’s an exciting time to be in the industry.

“We are getting great feedback from advertisers and readers and are taking on more and more staff so we are really looking forward to the future.”

The grant was announced by minister of science and innovation Steven Joyce.

POND CLEAN UP COULD COST $1M: A shock dose of a chemical used to kill weeds and algae in ponds is a last ditch attempt to clean up the Modeller’s Pond in Tahunanui before a $1million upgrade begins next year. The pond has suffered from algae for years and the council has tried many times to fix it by using various products and even draining the pond completely in the hope the algae would be gone when it was refilled. Nelson City Council currently has $495,000 in its budget to fix the pond but it is hoping a shock dose of the chemical Aquathol K, followed by monthly doses with Aqua Boost, an organic product commonly used in swimming pools, will fix the problem.

We’ll pay for frequency, says hunter

A Richmond man is urging Radio Spectrum to allow hunters to use its frequency at a cost, a scenario he says would stop them from being prosecuted if they use illegal dog tracking collars.

Last week Waimea Weekly reported that three search warrants had been issued to three separate homes to seize dog tracking collars, a product made by Garmin.

The collars, which have an in-depth GPS, allows hunters to indentify exactly where themselves and their dogs are. But because they run on the same radio frequency paid for by forestry companies who need it for emergency calls, it has always been illegal for hunters to access it.

While two hunters have told Waimea Weekly that they would continue to use them even though they are illegal, a third says he would stop, but hoped Radio Spectrum and the Ministry of Business Innovation and Employment could offer a realistic and One of the dog collars that legal alterna- pig hunters here like to use. tive – his preference allowing hunters to pay $100 a year to use the service. “They need to come up with some information about relieving the problem,” the anonymous man says. “I know a few guys have ended up in court over it but I know there a lot of guys out there who would pay so it’s user-friendly with both parties. Rather than banning it, why don’t they work with us?”

MBIE believes that it is unnecessary for hunters to use these illegal devices as there are alternative dog tracking devices available with similar functions that are safe and legal, and says it will continue to take action to enforce the legal requirements. However, MBIE did say it would not do checkpoints in the forest as they were too labour intensive.

But the alternative is a “bleep, bleep” product that appears to be very out-dated and in the past was more costly. Instead of having a visual GPS showing where the dogs are, it sends out different toned beeps so the hunter can hear whether the dogs have gone left or right.

Waimea Weekly made contact with local forestry companies on Monday to get their opinion on hunters using illegal devices on the land they manage, but not a single person spoken to was aware of the risks involved.

Mother: Art saved me after stroke Catherine Kent celebrated her 40th birthday last year in perfect health. She doesn’t smoke, eats healthy food, rarely drinks alcohol and was in training for a marathon.

The mother of one was also an art tutor and studying for an arts diploma.

Life was “perfect”. Until she had a stroke which left her unable to make a cup of tea, dress herself or even talk.

But almost a year on Catherine is back running, talking and this month will even graduate with her arts diploma.

It’s been an incredible recovery that she says started with her husband’s quick thinking and a fridge magnet. Catherine and her daughter last year took part in the Jennian Homes Mother’s Day fun run.

There they were given a fridge magnet from the Heart Foundation that had the signs of a stroke on it and for four months

store hours Mon to Fri 8am-6pm Sat 8am-4pm. Sun closed.

Catherine’s husband David had read it every time he opened the fridge.

Catherine said her stroke happened while she was out on a run, which was a lot harder than normal. She came home and started working on her assignment for course and the words she’d written days earlier no longer made sense, she had a sore neck but still didn’t realise what was happening.

The pain then spread to her jaw and when David made her lunch after returning home from a bike ride he knew straight away something wasn’t right. “I said ‘oh, I’m fine’. But he wasn’t having any of it and took me to a doctor straight away and they sent me to A&E. Even as the doctors were talking to me about it I still didn’t believe it was a stroke.”

She says David’s quick thinking saved her as the longer a stroke goes untreated the

more damage to the brain. “I thought ‘I’m young, fit, healthy, this can’t be happening to me. But it can happen to anyone, no matter the age, health or otherwise.”

Catherine had to face the reality of a long recovery but after eight weeks tried to return to work. “I just couldn’t do it and it was then that I realised I needed to take more time out.”

Catherine’s mother came over from the UK to help teach her how to dress and eat all over again but she was determined not to give up her studies. “Everyone told me to stop it or to put it on hold but I really wanted to carry on so I did.”

With only one semester finished when the stroke happened she had to battle through her second and final semester to graduate. She says it was extremely tough work but she believes it’s helped her recovery.

“I found creating really therapeutic and it was the only time I didn’t hurt and my brain wasn’t sore.”

She had to learn how to draw again but says that helped her coordination in her hands. “The hardest part was definitely writing, explaining my work.”

This month Catherine and another student from Nelson doing the same extramural course will jointly exhibit their work at the Icon Gallery in Upper Moutere. The exhibition is the final part of her course and once finished she will graduate. Something she says she is extremely proud of.

Catherine says she now wants to set up an art class for others with brain injuries as she believes it’s a great way to regain some skills and help with recovery.

She is also back running three times a week and enjoying swimming when she can.

Locks lost on Daffodil Day

with Sinead Ogilvie

Wednesday August 21 The cat which had to have its leg amputated after it was caught in an illegal gin trap is well on the road to recovery. The cat, whose original name was Ollie but has been nicknamed ‘Jim’ by SPCA staff, has taken great steps towards building up the muscle tone in his three remaining legs. He has already had plenty of offers of new homes, including one local lady who already has a three legged cat, who is keen to open her home to the animal. The original owner has also paid a significant amount of the vet bill, which was subsidised by the Halifax Vet Clinic.

Wednesday August 28 The Waimea Weekly inbox has been inundated with almost 100 emails from people wanting to be in to win a pack of local award winning home brewer Dale Holland’s beer. The lucky winners of the packs, which include a beer glass and four bottles of beer, are Brent Palmer and Janine Vincent. Congratulations.

Two police officers, a real estate agent and the owner of a catering company all underwent a head shave on Daffodil Day, raising more than $2500 for the Nelson Cancer Society.

Jane Gibson of Haven Realty, police officers Nick Kempthorne and Steve Berkett, and Lincoln Womersley of Blinc Catering put their hands up for the shave, which was held in Sundial Square on Friday in front of a small audience, with many taking photos of the participants.

Jane, whose father died of cancer, says it was a very personal experience to take part in. “One in three are affected so you can’t say no,” she says. “I’ve always wanted to do it and this was the year.”

If we sign up to the Kiwi Energy Trust, will we get estimated 20 per cent reduced rate plus our other discounts? Will our bills be administered by Kiwi Energy Trust?

Also we receive discounts from the Network Tasman trust, will those still be available? Bridget Hobden (via website).

Discounts with whomever the succesful tenderer will be will be in addition to any existing discounts. Bills will be administered by your power company not Kiwi Energy Trust. Please visit our web site www.kiwienergy.co.nz for more details and to sign up with no obligations.

missed out on the council fire scheme so we are stuck paying huge bills and we work from home, it just kills us in winter, we simply work to put food on the table and pay the power company in those cold months. Jaynie Holmes.

My daughter’s was $570 and trying to keep a home warm for an asthmatic two year old and a prem baby on the one income. Maxine Abbott.

Heat pumps and other heaters are terrible. She may qualify for the Tasman Trust rebate. They put some money onto my power bill this month.

Came in handy as we had just moved and had the cost of moving our power to pay. I think more help should be given to the elderly for power costs but having said that if they have the heaters on all day and night no wonder their bills are high. Julia Lines.

Our power has gone up and as we have gas for hot water and cooking and heating there is no actual reason for it to go up in winter but it had increased by over $100, makes you wonder if we get charged more in winter.

Snapper quote too generous: I think it should be 6 and I love getting out fishing. I think 10 per person is a bit much. Aleisha Brunell.

Well when you come from a family of six, your dad spends about 100 bucks on bait and petrol...yeah that’s when you hope he comes home with his quota. Remember, there are seven days in a week, so having fresh fish for dinner twice in two weeks is a good source of omega 3 for the whole family...

Carol Shirley president of the Walk with Us charity, with chairwoman Nancy Cowling are asking the community to pitch in and support the new local charity. Photo: Sinead Ogilvie.

Free shoes for school students Walking a mile in someone elses shoes has taken on a new meaning for a local charity, that is offering community members a chance to help local students in need.

Walk with Us is a new local Charitable Trust whose mission is to provide free school and sports footwear and socks to children who despite needing them the most, sometimes miss out.

Eight local schools have already signed up to join the early pilot programme including Victory, Richmond and Wakefield primary schools, who will provide feedback on the programme.

Walk with Us has been established by a group of Nelson and Tasman women who wanted to con-

tribute something positive to the community in a targeted and specific way. Following discussions with local schools and teachers, and researching similar organisations from around the country, the group has decided that providing school and sports footwear fits well with their goals and aspirations as well as a community need.

Walk with Us is looking for sponsors and donations and have already heard from Dave Heyward of Stirling Sports and Number One Shoes who are keen to be involved.

To donate or become a sponsor for Walk With Us, contact Anne-Marie Teece on 027 544 8255 or amteece1@gmail.com or get in touch with Nancy Cowling on 027 496 4720.

Time for a Change U Council Debt and Projected Debt:

Tasman District Council currently has debt of more than $156 million. That debt is projected to rise to $310 million in the current Ten Year Plan. This is not affordable, sustainable or prudent. If and when interest rates rise this will place an unacceptable burden on ratepayers.

11

Kit Maling

U Affordability of Rates:

Tasman rates are high by national standards yet in Tasman we have relatively low incomes with a large population of retired people. Constantly increasing rates are crippling. Council needs to focus on core services to make this a good and prosperous place to live; a place where people can afford to live in their own homes well after their retirement.

for Mayor

U Looking After our Environment: Tasman is a beautiful part of New Zealand with great opportunities for outdoor activities. We need to make sure that we look after our environment for future generations. We also need employment and economic prosperity and to do this we have to use our natural resources wisely. Water management and water quality are of the utmost importance to the district.

U Focus on Service:

Council exists to serve the ratepayers and people of Tasman - not the other way round. I want to lead an enabling and customer friendly Council.

I am asking for your support to address the issues I have outlined by voting for me in the Local Elections in October.

Just a thought...

While sitting on the Mapua wharf eating fish ‘n’ chips, enjoying the lilt of conversation and being mesmerised by the beauty around me, my attention was suddenly caught by the boats anchored in the channel. “Those boats have changed direction.” I stated.

Much to the amusement of my co-fish ‘n’ chip eater, it took me a while to process the reason why. Of course, the tide had turned.

It got me thinking, though.

Where would those boats be without anchors? They would surely be taken way out to sea only to be returned to land again and dashed against the rocks.

I won’t call myself conservative for believing in him but I will label myself ‘radical’. To stand up for what our all-knowing God has deemed to be good for us in the face of a growing tide against God is radical.

God is my rock and I trust him without a doubt.

There is a fabulous old hymn titled “Will your anchor hold in the storms of life?”

The chorus goes like this: “We have an anchor that keeps the soul steadfast and sure while the billows roll, fastened to the rock which cannot move, grounded firm and deep in the saviour’s love”.

Think about it: What is your anchor attached to?

Popular casting clinic returns The Nelson Trout Fishing Club will host another casting clinic in Richmond before the season officially opens next month.

With assistance from Fish and Game, the club is running the free clinic at Garin College on September 8 from 10am.

Fish and Game officer Lawson Davey says with the new trout fishing season due to start 1 October, it’s a great opportunity to get some practice in prior to the season and to learn a few tips on improving your technique and how to catch more fish.

The Nelson Trout Fishing Club and Fish and Game have fishing rods available for people to use, but for those who have their own, bring them along.

If the event is postponed due to the weather, it will be held the following Sunday of September.

A joint venture between two market leaders in glass will see Nelsonians better off says Richmond Glass director Russell Gilden, who has recently taken on the dealership for Novus windscreen repair and replacements for the region.

Richmond Glass will now operate Novus windscreen repairs and replacements from both the Richmond and Nelson branches of the business, offering wide coverage and man power to the region.

Novus has been in Nelson for a number of years and Richmond Glass is no stranger to automotive glass repairs, so joining forces will mean local customers will have peace of mind and far reaching guarantees says Russell.

“While we’ve already built a great name for ourselves repairing and replacing automotive glass, aligning ourselves with Novus who are also a long standing and well known business means we are now a preferred supplier to all major insurers and can offer the Novus nationwide guarantee.”

Russell is now the supplier of Novus for the top of the south, operating as the agent for Novus in both the Greymouth and Marlborough regions, and now Nelson and Tasman. Novus offer full workshop and mobile services and also have a courtesy car available.

The weather is getting warmer, so it’s time to heat up your wardrobe for a spring look to match. Take note of spring’s signature look, blooming flowers, fresh greens, soft yellows and baby blues and introduce it into your day to day wear. Going floral is an easy and statement making way of diving straight into your spring look. Dress down for day wear in dresses that feature a smaller print, and take it up a notch at night with a bigger, bolder and brighter hue.

Pastels are a great way to ease into spring’s trends without going overboard, and can be easily incorporated into your outfit in the form of lilac, peach, pale pink and baby yellow accessories. Team outfits with open toed light coloured footwear, a pop of pink lipstick and you’ll spring flawlessly into the season.

Andrew and the team for trusted family health advice, and are always well looked after in return.

This understanding is what has kept locals returning to the pharmacy each time they are sick, or to treat their regular ailments with a pharmacy they can trust.

Andrew McGlashen is celebrating five years at his local, family pharmacy on Queen St. Your favourite family friendly pharmacy is celebrating its’ 5th birthday. That’s five years of great service, five years of quality health advice, and five years since owner Andrew opened the doors to McGlashen Pharmacy.

Ever since the first customer walked through the door, McGlashen Pharmacy has built a strong customer base which is made up of local members of the community. People turn to

Having been open for five years, Andrew says the relationship the team has formed with the community is what makes opening the doors each day so enjoyable. Five years ago, some of his customers were bringing their babies in to see him, and now those children are heading off to school, and are just a little bit taller each time they visit with mum or dad. “It’s amazing to be able to watch

The back entrance features huge double doors for anyone arriving via wheelchair or pushing a pram, and opening into the public carpark means you’ll never struggle to find a park.

McGlashen Pharmacy also has parking right in front of the back doors, which is perfect for the elderly, or people who find it hard to get around.

hand it to you straight through your window, which is particularly handy if you are not feeling well enough to leave the car, or if you have sick children with you.

To complete the user friendliness, the pharmacy also has a lovely children’s play area, complete with its own playhouse which is extremely popular with the little ones. A trip to McGlashen pharmacy always keeps the kids entertained and happy, leaving you free to talk to Andrew and the team about what you need.

It’s almost the time of year to start thinking about applying for the McGlashen Pharmacy Young Achiever Scholarship too. This scholarship has been run by the pharmacy for all of its five years, and offers a local person aged 16 or under a helping hand to achieve great things in their chosen field. Whether it be a

sport, art, music or other interest, if they excel at it or are on their way to doing great things, McGlashen Pharmacy donate $1000 through the scholarship to help the individual achieve their goals.

The scholarship is a great way for the pharmacy to give a lump sum to a young person who could really benefit from it says Andrew, and it is a nice way to give something back each year to the community that supports the pharmacy.

“We sponsor quite a few things, but it is nice to be able to give a large amount of money in the form of a scholarship, which we know will go towards helping someone achieve great things.”

This year’s scholarship entries are due in to McGlashen Pharmacy by September 30.

Applicant’s entries will be processed during the following four weeks, and the award will be presented to the suc-

cessful applicant during early November. Applicants for the Mcglashen Pharmacy Young Achiever Scholarship must be 16 years of age or under at the time of entry, live within the Nelson or Tasman district and show a promising future in their chosen field based on previous results.

Don’t forget that you can also get passport photos done at McGlashen Pharmacy now, and they have great success in getting photos accepted the first time round.

You should also ask them about their loyalty card, which is well known for its great value. Spend $30 when you visit and receive a stamp, then once you’ve collected ten stamps you receive $30 off your next purchase. This is a great way to save on the regular products you buy such as shampoo, conditioner or beauty products.

The pharmacy will also have

a trade stand at this year’s masters Games with everything an athlete could ask for, which will be an exciting few days as people from all over the country descend on Nelson to participate. Look out for them if you are participating and go and get sorted with a bandage, brace or anything else you may require.

Five years has simply flown by for the team at McGlashen Pharmacy, and Andrew would like to thank each and every customer that has supported him. From those families that have visited him right from the very start, to customers that have only just recently made their first trip to the pharmacy, a huge thank you for your support.

Head down and celebrate McGlashen Pharmacy’s 5th birthday this week, and help them celebrate five years of success in business, and many more to come.

Tasman end Federal’s run Federal’s stranglehold on Nelson Hockey has been loosened, with Tasman clinching a thrilling penalty shootout victory during Saturday’s women’s final.

But while the shock result went the way of Tasman, Federal proved too good in the men’s final, pushing out to a 3-0 lead in a pulsating fixture.

Having led 2-0 within the opening stages, Tasman women found themselves staring down a 3-2 defeat to a Federal side it hadn’t beaten all season. But the side’s gamble to pull the goal keeper and add an eleventh outfield player with just eight

minutes on the clock proved to be a masterstroke with Bronie Edwards scoring in the final 30 seconds.

The late equaliser sent Federal into a state of disbelief, while in turn, sky rocketing the confidence in the Tasman camp going into a straight penalty shoot out. Two Federal players failed to score with Rebecca Kersten’s touch passing the keeper but also the playing turf, handing Tasman the trophy – just the

second time Federal has lost it in the past ten years.

While the men’s final was more straight forward, the Federal side, which has an average playing age of around 40, could also call their result an upset, being unable to beat Tasman throughout the regular season. Craig Brett, who scored in the final, admits the result was “against the run of play”. “We hadn’t had a win against them all season and we had to be cautious with a few boys on yellow cards but we’re thrilled,” he says. “We’ve won it a few times so it was good to have it go our way.”

Swimmers take out South Island titles Sam McKenzie and Ellie Rukuwai of Nelson won South Island titles as the South Island’s top swimmers converged at Blenheim’s Stadium 2000 Aquatic Centre over the weekend for the 2013 South Island Swimming Championships.

The event was packed with exciting racing and outstanding performances from some of the country’s top swimmers as well as standout efforts from our local Top-of-theSouth swimmers.

Sam, 14, of the Nelson Swimming Club, blitzed the field for gold in the 50 Fly, 50 Free and 100 Free, in the 13-14 year old age group. He also brought home silver in the 200 Free and bronze in the 100 Fly and

broke several Nelson-Marlborough age group records (200 Free, 100 Free and 50 Fly).

Ellie, 15, of Nelson South Swimming Club, took 15-16 year old age group titles in the 50 Breast and 100 IM and silver in her 100 Breast, also smashing the age group Nelson-Marlborough records in the 100 & 200 IM as well as the open record for the 100 IM. Other Nelson swimmers putting in inspiring performances included Eddie Neill, Phillippa Dwyer, Amy Coulton, Samantha Trevurza, Clara Foster, Talya Harwood, Madisen Stanley and Kaine Ransby who brought home a truckload of medals between them.

Jacks OPD are Nelson’s premier netball champions for the second year in a row, and although they were the side lifting the trophy at full-time, Thursday night’s final certainly didn’t go to script.

With only one loss in the previous two seasons, thrashing their finals opponents by 30 points in the previous fixture and boasting the tag of number one qualifiers, Jacks Office Products Depot were hot favourites going into the premier grade final against Robbie’s Bar and Bistro Richmond, and the scoreline of 50-47 was much tighter than the blow out predicted by some.

In fact, Richmond had the upper hand in the first two quarters, with ace shooter Nicki Rampton helping her side to a 27-24 lead at half-time.

But Jacks OPD, who confirmed their championship credentials right throughout the season, finally kicked into gear with some swift substitu-

tions having a sharp impact, pushing the team ahead 41-37 going into the final 15 minutes.

While the score was even at 43-43 with just minutes to go on the clock, Richmond just couldn’t regain the dominance it had in the opening two spells, and some late turnovers proved costly with Jacks OPD edging ahead by three to seal the victory.

Jacks OPD coach Robyn Leonard, who was not afraid to drag under performing players on the night, says finals netball is a “different kettle of fish” and was not surprised to be pushed closely by Richmond.

“We knew it was going to be very tough against them.

They’ve got a lot of good experience and a lot of very good athletes that have played some very high quality sports so we

always knew come the big one that they’d be there looking for the win,” she says.

“Some people might have said Richmond were the underdogs but I’d certainly never call them that.”

Robyn knew her side had the ability to claw back into games, having come from behind to win a handful of fixtures earlier in the season.

But she still admits to feeling nervous when Richmond shot out to an eight point lead in the first quarter. “I was thinking ‘come on ladies’. But we’ve done that time after time this season and we knew if they got the lead that the most important thing is not to panic because we can come back. It was a hard fought game right throughout.”

And, having won the title last year as well, 2013’s effort seems to trump it, according to Robyn. “This year the whole premier competition has been tighter.”

College girls start with two victories Waimea College won its first two games of the Lotto Premier Girls New Zealand Secondary School Football Championship to book a place into the round of 16.

Day one victories over Hillcrest and Macleans College ensured a place in the next round despite a tight 1-0 defeat to title contenders Mt Albert Grammar School on day two.

Waimea’s playoff match was scheduled to be played yesterday afternoon against heavyweights Epsom Girls Grammar School.

Waimea manager Mike Beeby says the girls have been playing out of their skin all tournament with star defenders Emily Jensen and Megan Oliver playing a key role. “We’ve easily met our goals for the week and we’re only up to the second day,” says Mike. “The key now is not to finish 16th.

Angel said she tries hard to get out in the open and tries not to knock the ball out of the hands of other players. Jess’ favourite player is Irene van Dyke because she is a really nice person and a good player.

And when asked what their coach had taught them this year there was a chorus of replies – spread out, dodge, come forward, fast passes and jump! That’s a whole lot of skills and knowledge.

Pines secure NZ title Solly’s Nelson Pine are winners of the Volleyball New Zealand Club Championship for the second year running, sweeping North Harbour Raiders three sets to zip in Saturday night’s final.

The toughest match of the tournament appeared to be the semi final against former champions Sparta.

Having beaten them in the final last year, Nelson Pine was forced to dig deep in another five set thriller.

Captain Patrick Shone was named the tournament MVP for the second year in a row and also and doubled up with the tournament’s top setter award. Nelson team mates Jack Redpath (best setter) and Blue Glue (best spiker) were also praised with selection in the tournament team.

Resource Consents

Rural Land Review – Public Meeting Programme

The Council has received applications for resource consent, which have been publicly notified in The Nelson Mail. The applications and supporting information may be examined in any Council Office or Service Centre. The full public notice may be found online on Council’s website (www.tasman.govt.nz).

Any person may make a submission on the applications in accordance with Section 96 of the Resource Management Act 1991. Submission forms are available from Council Offices, Service Centres and on Council’s website. Please note that the following is an abridged advisory notice only.

Over the last 15 years the Tasman District has experienced continuing pressure for subdivision and development, particularly residential development, in rural areas including on land with high productive value.

This is a powerful force for change in rural areas and the Council wants to discuss with the community to decide what you want to see happen, now and for the future. It is an issue that affects the whole District not just rural areas.

Roadside Spraying Contractors employed by New Zealand Transport Agency undertake an ongoing vegetation control programme to ensure that roadside vegetation does not affect the safety or operation of the region’s state highway network. This programme includes the spraying of chemical herbicides including the following active ingredients: Glyphosate, Metsulfuron, Terbuthylazine and Triclopyr. Persons wishing to register their property as a ‘no-spray’ zone, which requires a commitment to maintain a property’s highways frontage to specifications provided by NZTA, may do so by contacting Lea O’Sullivan or Donna Hills on Ph. 03 548 1099 at Opus International Consultants, c/- Private Bag 36, Nelson.

Vegetation Control – Roadside Spraying in Rural Areas Registration of Non-Spray Areas Tasman District Council’s roading maintenance contractor is responsible for vegetation control within the road reserve. This includes the use of knock-down, residual and brushweed herbicides to remove vegetation growing in the roadway and around street furniture. The contractor is also responsible for control of pest plants and other noxious weeds such as gorse, fennel, hemlock, blackberry, broom, bracken, purple pampas grass and box thorn.

Residents can request that their rural property frontage not be chemically sprayed and instead undertake the vegetation control themselves. On approval Council will mark the no spray area with red marker pegs.

Rural residents who choose the “no spray” option must control the vegetation growth along their property frontage to ensure road users are not impeded and all roadside signs and markers are clearly visible. Vegetation height should not exceed 300mm. Any stormwater drainage ditches need to be kept clear of excess vegetation. At intersections vegetation must be kept well clear to ensure good sight lines for traffic using the intersection.

If you wish to apply for your property to be added to the “No Spray” list, please contact Robyn Scherer, Engineering Secretary, Tasman District Council, Ph. 03 543 8524 or Email robyn.scherer@tasman.govt.nz
