$1.5 million to create new jobs Matt McCrorie Reporter

matt@waimeaweekly.co.nz

A funding boost from the government means 30 new jobs will

be created across the Tasman District. The Ministry of Business, Innovation, and Employment recently confirmed $1.5million worth of funding to redeploy locals who

have lost their jobs due to Covid-19. The programme, managed by the Tasman District Council, will see $1million being spent removing trees and roadside hazards, while

$500,000 will be spent increasing roadside drainage. The proposal was submitted to the government as a ‘shovel-ready’ project, aimed at fast tracking infrastructure projects around the

country to get people into jobs and stimulate the economy. Tasman District Council transportation manager Jamie

Book raises cash for forest fire animals Matt McCrorie A children’s book that was written to describe how animals were cared for during the Pigeon Valley fires has raised $5000 for local charity groups. ‘But who’s looking after the animals’, written by local author Renee Lang and illustrated by Polly Rabbits, is inspired by the animal lovers and animal welfare agen-

cies who created a safe haven for pets and farm animals when fires blazed across Pigeon Valley and forced thousands to evacuate their homes. Renee Lang says that after she worked to raise money for food for animals that were being cared for in the Richmond Showgrounds, she had the idea to write a children’s book, detailing how animals were cared for while the

$1.5 million to create new jobs fRoM PAGE 1 McPherson says the process is well underway, and that 30 people will be employed as a result of the funding boost within the next few weeks. While the project will create 30 jobs for between six and twelve months, Jamie says the emphasis is on giving new skills to those who have found themselves unemployed due to Covid. “It’s not just about taking people and giving them some temporary work and putting them back on the street after the project is finished, we want to give people skills that will enable them to stay in the industry and stay connected to work.” Jamie says that clearing roadside hazards has been a priority for council for some time, but they haven’t had the funds to undertake the work.

Jamie McPherson, TDC transport manager, says that additional funding from the government will create 30 new jobs in the next year. Photo: Matt McCrorie. “This is a win win. We know there are hazards, but council

has had a very modest budget for this in the past.” “Trees and other roadside hazards leave no margin for error for drivers when they are really close to the road. When drivers make mistakes, they shouldn’t pay with their lives.” The council has also received funds that it applied for under the Innovating Streets for People Pilot Fund, designed to create safer, healthier and more people-friendly streets. The funding is aimed at letting councils fastrack projects. The council has recived a 90 per cent subsidy to improve the Croucher - D’Arcy neighbourhood in Richmond. With a budget of $132,000, the trial will aim to slow traffic in the area and improve walking and cycling safety, as the neighbourhood is a key link between central Richmond and schools in the Salisbury Road area.

Region unites for recovery Matt McCrorie

The Nelson and Tasman regions have joined forces to battle the economic impact of Covid-19. The Nelson Tasman Economic Response and Regeneration Plan, that was officially launched on Friday last week, outlines the economic strategy for the region for the next year. The document was launched last week by project Project Kōkiri, which is a joint response to the Covid-19 pandemic from the Nelson City Council, the Tasman District Council, Nelson Regional Development Agency, Nelson Tasman Chamber of Commerce, and local iwi. Since the project was formed, it has already submitted 27 requests for infrastructure projects to the government’s ‘shovel ready’ project, including 14 priority projects. Waimea Dam was just one of the major projects that has been submitted for funding, with project Kōkiri asking for $32.6 million for the dam, including $9.6 million to add a hydro power station. If all the projects are accepted, this would create 2434 new jobs across the region. Unemployment has been a looming concern for the region. Earlier this month the total number of unemployed across Nelson, Tasman and

Marlborough had doubled to over 4000 since March 20. Unemployment is highest among under 30’s, with unemployment in that age group sitting at around 40 percent. The response plan will see a range of measures taken over the next year to stimulate the economy across Nelson and Tasman, including action to protect existing jobs as well as creating new jobs and speeding up investment in the region. CE of the Nelson Regional Development Agency, Mark Rawson, says that the purpose of the plan is to give a sense of direction for the economic re-

covery for the region. “The significance of the challenges ahead will require us to be more aligned in our thinking, planning, decision-making and actions.” Tasman mayor Tim King says that it is imperative for the regions to work together. “While our diverse economy provides us with some advantages, to make the most of them we need to work together,” Tim says. “We will not succeed without a combined effort from the community, central and local government and the private sector.”

Brightwater cannabis facility creates jobs Matt McCrorie Reporter

matt@waimeaweekly.co.nz

Two new medicinal cannabis facilities that are being planned for Nelson and Tasman could create as many as 200 new jobs, its proponent claims. Nelson-based company Medical Kiwi is building the first facility in the South Island to cultivate cannabis for medicinal use. The Government legalised medicinal cannabis in December 2018, and passed regulations that enabled the scheme in December 2019. The medicinal cannabis scheme came into effect on April 1 2020, meaning New Zealanders can legally access cannabis-based products through a prescription from a doctor. The company, chaired by former Nelson mayor Aldo Miccio, announced last year that it had been granted a cultivation licence by the Ministry of Health, and that a site had been found for a cultivation facility in Brightwater. Plans to break the ground on the research and cultivation facility in Brightwater for mid-2020 have

However, Aldo says the company has been ‘extremely productive’ throughout lockdown and has been able to ‘pivot’ effectively. “Covid has caused a few issues in terms of planning, as well as a bit of a delay with investors,” Aldo says. Aldo says the time in isolation

was used well by the company. “It’s enabled us to get more done.” While the Brightwater facility announced last year will still be built, construction is more likely to begin in early 2021 rather than mid-2020. However, the company instead plans to create a smaller, additional cultivation facility in Nelson, which could be operational

by December. Plans for the location are still being finalised. “We are looking at retrofitting an existing building to satisfy orders with clients that have already been made.” The Brightwater facility will still be going ahead, meaning that Medical Kiwi will be operating two facilities in the Nelson and Tasman region. Aldo says that

Medical Kiwi hopes to break ground on the facility by March 2021. He says the retrofit facility will create around 60 jobs this year, with this number jumping up to around 200 once the Brightwater facility is fully operational. Aldo says that there will be a ‘huge market’ for medicinal cannabis in New Zealand. “As the New Zealand industry becomes more sophisticated in developing products, and as GPs become more comfortable giving out prescriptions, the industry will grow.” It will be a slow burn, but Aldo says that the industry will grow. “There are so many benefits for patients, even just in terms of physical pain relief. Patients ultimately will drive demand.” Aldo says that while this year’s recreational cannabis use referendum won’t directly impact medical cultivators like Medical Kiwi, if New Zealander’s vote ‘Yes’ on the recreational referendum, it will create more education around cannabis. “It would help speed up the education process for the general public, for sure.”

Disappointment for OE plans Jacqui Rawson Reporter

jacqui@waimeaweekly.co.nz

Emily Rushbrooke was bound for the United States and a second season with Camp America when the pandemic brought a halt to plans for her big OE. “I was so looking forward to seeing the kids again”, says Emily. The OE, (Overseas Experience),

has been a Kiwi tradition since the 1970’s, a mission of discovery and chance to fill a backpack with lessons and experience. For Emily, it was a chance to share her skills and love of horses by working with kids at a Camp America site in Pennsylvania. Last year was her first overseas trip on her own and, having been bitten by the travel bug, she couldn’t wait to do it again.

She was looking forward to seeing the same children again and to build on the skills she’d passed onto them during the first year. It was also a chance to reconnect with the other councillors who came from all over the world Emily’s role as Barn Councillor involved teaching the youngsters riding skills and how to look after horses. It usually runs from May until August, but the camp has been closed since the beginnings of the Coronavirus. “I’m keeping in contact with the people who own the camp so I

don’t lose the chance to do it again next year”, says Emily. Post last year’s camp Emily went off on a Contiki tour through America. She planned to do the same kind of tour, but this year Europe was to be her destination. Thirteen countries in 23 days. Emily booked the tour in November last year because it was financially the best time to book. By the time the pandemic arrived earlier this year, Emily had already found a job and saved up enough to have paid for the tour and her flights in full.

However, she isn’t completely out of pocket. “Contiki and the travel agents have been really good about it”, says Emily. Contiki has given Emily a credit to use for any destination of her choice within the next year. Emily’s flights, a separate expense, was organised through House of Travel. For these, too, she’s received a credit of the same value and valid for a year. The kiwi tradition will continue, at some unknown time down the track.

Book raises cash for forest fire animals

Matt McCrorie Reporter

fRom pAge 1 devastating fire raged on. “It was published in September last year, the whole thing from concept to publication only took us about four months,” Renee says. “I had the idea for the book, and I’ve worked on and off with Polly for a few years – I approached her, and here we are.” Nearly $5000 was raised from books sales since September last year, with half being donated to the Nelson Ark and half going to HUHA, which is a charitable trust dedicated to helping animals, who were heavily involved in the effort to temporarily rehome animals during the fires. Nelson Ark administrator Karen Howieson says that the Nelson Ark is ‘incredibly grateful’ for the donation. “It was incredibly exciting, and we really appreciate the work that Polly and Renee have done,” she says. “We really appreciate the support. It’s so important that children can learn that all beings are important, and to acknowledge the work that everybody did in keeping the animals safe in a very difficult time.” There are still copies available, which can be purchased from their website www.butwhoslookingaftertheanimals.nz

A lifetime Nelson A&P association member has been presented with Royal Agricultural Society Medal for his 50year service to the group. John Harwood has had a long career with the A&P association, taking on a range of roles over his 50 years. He first joined the A&P association in 1970 and has been a committee member since 1987. John took the reins as president, first in 1991, and again in 2004-2006, taking over the role of treasurer from 2008-2020. He was made a Life member in 2010, along with being the Chief Steward of the shearing section and convenor of the Ewe Hogget competition for many years. His expertise have even been brought in to judge shearing internationally. He’s still the go to man, retaining his role as property manager and fixing anything around the park that needs to be repaired. Current A&P association president Ted Ford says that John is ‘invaluable’ to the association. “He’s down here most days, doing more work than anybody else by a long shot,”

Debbie Cameron presenting a Royal Agricultural Society medal to John Harwood. Photo: Supplied. Ted says. Ted says that John is ‘definitely deserving’ of the recognition. For John, the honour came as a complete surprise. John got involved with the shearing in the early 70’s, and after a few years of that he thought he would go along to the AGM for a look. “Next thing I knew I was on the com-

mittee, and next thing I knew after that I was president.” John says that the reason he has stuck around for so long is because he believes in the association, and wants to see it continue on for the next generation. “That’s my philosophy. I want to see that through, that the park will be here for the next generations to enjoy.”

COOLER MATES JIM BEAM WHITE LABEL BOURBON WHISKEY Since 1795, Jim Beam has been crafted by the Beam family and distilled with a strong sense of family values. Seven generations later, it’s still made with those same values and aged twice as long as the law requires. Elegant. Smooth. Refined. That’s what 4 years of aging in newly charred American white oak barrels does to Jim Beam bourbon. But every drop is worth the effort, and the Beam family love the idea of sticking to their great-great-grandfather’s recipe. Perhaps that’s why, today, Jim Beam stands as the World’s #1 Bourbon.

Saying thanks to our volunteers Jacqui Rawson Reporter

jacqui@waimeaweekly.co.nz

Volunteer Week, happening this week, is an acknowledgement of those people who make up such an important part of any community’s social fabric. They come from varied backgrounds and differ in age but share the need to give back to their community through the donation of their time and energy. Susan Holland from Richmond is a volunteer for the Red Cross. Her role is to help former refugees to settle into their new life as Kiwis in the Nelson area. “I am a permanent resident, the same as the families I’m supporting,” says Susan. Susan started volunteering soon after her arrival in New Zealand and has been helping where she can for five years. In that time, she along with other volunteers have helped eight families to settle in. The families have all been from either Myanmar or Colombia and are part of the 1000 refugees that New Zealand resettles annually.

Susan Holland, Richmond, is a volunteer with the Red Cross. Photo: Jacqui Rawson. Helping families to settle in can amount to lots of tasks, big and small, for the volunteers and a huge learning curve for the new Kiwis. The formation of their lives; their language, traditions and even the lifestyles

they’ve had to leave behind are very different from their new life in New Zealand. “The first few weeks you’re really busy helping set up, taking them to doctors and things like that”, says Susan. Volunteers help to make

this initial transition less daunting and run smoother. In some cases, the former refugees come from very remote areas and may not know how to use an ATM or don’t have any experience in using a washing machine. Volunteers help them master all these unknown tasks that we all accept as part of normal life. Red Cross volunteers help out with things like the children’s first day at school. They ensure they’ve bought all the necessary school requirements and show them the best way to get there. They take the parents to their English language classes the first few times to show them the way. Show them where the closest supermarket is and help them with buying their first load of groceries. Susan says a difficult aspect of this type of volunteering is the inability to be able to communicate other than through sign language. “You want to be able to speak and to share information, she says. Instead, you get to share laughs at both your attempts at charades.”

Deerstalkers want more consultation on Arms Bill Jacob Page Reporter

editorial@waimeaweekly.co.nz

The New Zealand Deerstalkers’ Association believe more consultation is needed before it can support the new Arms Legislation Bill. The organisation has said that it believes the bill fails its members on several points as it currently reads. In a recent email to members, the NZDA says the bill cannot receive its support at this stage and describes it in parts as “illogical, unreasonable punitive and overly bureacratic”. NZDA says that the bill doesn’t do enough to address illegal use and possesion of firearms by criminals. “The bill focuses heavily on enforcing the compliance of law-abiding licenced hunters and firearms owners and their organisations yet does

relatively little to address the illegal use and possession of firearms by criminals,” the NZDA says. “The bill fails to recognise or acknowledge the social, cultural, economic and conservation benefits that come from hunting and responsible firearm use.” “The above concerns must be addressed and the offending clauses removed or modified to ensure New Zealanders’ civil liberties are properly acknowledged and protected, then the NZDA could support the majority of the new law’s objectives. “The NZDA believes a better law will result from proper consultation with firearm owners, hunters and the wider community. This will provide a cooperative environment in which informed decisions can be made, united in a common purpose.”

Gravel piles up as demand increases within a small window due to Covid, so those piles will grow and sit there until contractors can process them and work through them. It’s just a matter of getting it out of the ground while we can.” Tasman District Council transportation manager, Jamie Macpherson, says that gravel is in high demand in the region. “There is a massive need for gravel in this district.” Jamie says that the region is experiencing significant growth, and that all that growth needs gravel for roads and concrete. “There is a heck of a lot of gravel being produced in this area,” he says. Jamie says that there is only a brief window in which contractors can easily extract rock from around the river, hence

A shortened extraction period and increased demand has seen gravel stockpiles in Appleby skyrocket. Due to Covid, the timeframe to extract rock from the Quarry site in Appleby is shorter than usual, meaning that huge stockpiles of rock have appeared at the quarry. Paul O’Meara, Area Manager for Fulton Hogan, one of the contractors that operates out of the site, says that contractors have been moving fast to extract as much rock as they can before the council consent period ends. “Basically, everyone is working

the large stockpiles that have appeared. “Gravel is being extracted from the other side of the river, so they have to bring it across. “There’s a temporary culvert there so trucks don’t have to drive through the river,” Jamie says. “If there was a good flood, that culvert would be gone, so it’s about being efficient with the time we have.” Covid has created a shorter window for extracting, so the stockpiles will be built up until they can be processed, where the rock will then be used in gravel or concrete to create infrastructure and housing around the Tasman region. “This will help with the significant growth that this region is experiencing,” Jamie says.

Load control saves you money Load control is a mechanism that Network Tasman and many other lines companies use to manage the demand that heating water places on the electricity network during ‘peak’ demand periods, typically in the morning and early evening on the coldest winter days. Load control allows Network Tasman to shut off devices such as electrical hot water cylinders for a short time during the periods of highest demand. As a result Network Tasman can keep costs down and pass those savings on to our consumers. Cheaper prices for water heating are shown on your electricity bill as a line called ‘controlled’ or ‘economy’. Controlling the load in this way doesn’t impact on the way you use your hot water e.g. to wash your dishes, do laundry or have showers and baths. Our aim is to ensure that you don’t even notice that load control is being used.

Load control helps save consumers money because it reduces the transmission charges that Network Tasman pays to Transpower. Network Tasman also doesn’t have to invest so Mandy Troy 027 230 0201 547 2476 much money upgrading the capacity of its local network to cope with ever-increasing peaks during network busy hours. “As an example,” says Network Tasman’s Regulatory and Commercial Manager, Daniel Vincent, “in the coming years we will need to build a new grid exit point in Brightwater. If we didn’t have load control, we would have needed to make this $28 million investment years earlier and customers would already be paying for that investment in their power bill. “Deferring investment keeps our network at a level that’s in line with what the community actually needs and, in turn, keeps electricity prices down. It also means we can take advantage of developing technology and innovation as alternatives to traditional network supply become available. “Management of peak load through hot water load control by Network Tasman saves the company and its customers millions of dollars every year.”

The man behind the name - Barnicoat Place Dianne Scott John Wallis Barnicoat was born at Falmouth in Cornwall on 3rd June 1814. After being educated he was apprenticed to a Mr Thomas (engineer) for 5 years. He then worked in his profession in England (latterly for the English Railways) until 1841. John then emigrated to New Zealand as a cabin passenger aboard the Lord Auckland, arriving at Nelson on 7 February 1842. During 1842 and 1843, he took up a surveying contract with the NZ Company, being one of the team who laid the lines for Richmond and Waimea. In 1843 he helped to found Nelson College, one of the first institutions for secondary education in New Zealand. The College opened in 1856 with John being of the original trustees, serving on the Board of Governors for more than forty years. He also served on the Nelson Education Board from its inception in 1836 until 1839. 1843 saw John, a surveyor for the N Z Company, at the

customers on their favourite superstar in Richmond Mall. March winner was Lesley at Silvermoon, May winner Cathy from Lily & May and June winner Glenda from Ambrosia.

John Wallis Barnicoat “Wairau Massacre.” He was lucky to escape with his life. In 1844 he visited the east coast of the South Island searching for a suitable site for Dunedin. He also took up a land offer at Richmond for the £300 he had paid for allotments of 201 acres in the scheme. 1848 saw him nominated as one of the two arbitrators to settle the New Zealand Land

Company’s claims. In 1849, John married Rebecca, daughter of William Hodgson, and over the next 23 years they raised six children. In 1850 the Government sent him and John Tinline to find a suitable land route between Nelson and the Wairau, resulting in the Whangamoa Road. After that he gave up sur-

veying, settling on his farm at Richmond which consisted of around 140 acres of the Waimea East swamp. They resided there for about fifty years, cultivating and improving the land. He entered politics when the Provincial Government was established in 1853, and was the only member to serve through until the provinces were abolished. In 1883 he received a life appointment to the Legislative Council, retiring from office in 1902. John was also very active in local affairs, being chairman of the Waimea Road Board (1857–77) and Waimea County Council (1877–83). He was, at different times, chairman of the Hospital Board, a visiting justice to the asylum, and a director of the Waimea Flax Dressing Co. Barnicoat Place Richmond, Barnicoat Range, and Barnicoat House at Nelson College are all named after this man, who packed a lot into his 91 years. John died at Hardy Street, Nelson, on 2 February 1905, leaving two sons and three daughters.

Christie US-bound for tennis scholarship Jacob Page Reporter

editorial@waimeaweekly.co.nz

Richmond’s Christie Gilbert has turned a gymnastics injury five years ago into an American college tennis scholarship. The 18-year-old former Waimea College student will head to the Goldey Beacom College in Delaware, Wilmington, in August to play division two tennis. However, none of it would have happened had she not suffered a serious back injury at gymnastics as a 12-year-old. “That injury ended things for me and it was a friend who convinced me to give tennis a go. “To be honest, I’d never seen the sport or played it but I took to it pretty fast and I knew there was a chance I could go further with this,” she says. Representing Nelson Bays has been

a regular occurrence for Christie, she has also travelled each weekend to play for a Wellington club for the past two years. Goldey Beacom plays in the CACC (Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference) where they have shown great results by winning the championship twice in recent years. Christie describes herself as an aggressive left-handed player who attacks from the baseline with a strong forehand and two-handed backhand. She will study business/sport and exercise management while in America and says this has been a motivating factor in her decision to take up the scholarship. “I’m really excited by the opportunity to play overseas with a school that performs really well,” she says. “I don’t know where it will take me after this but I know it will be good for both my tennis and me from an education standpoint.”

Golden Bay Fruit eager to grow women’s rugby Jacob Page Reporter

editorial@waimeaweekly.co.nz

Golden Bay Fruit have signed to be the Tasman Rugby Union’s brand sponsor of female rugby The agreement will include front of jersey branding of the Tasman Mako Farah Palmer Cup team, the TRU Academy program, the Tasman Trophy club competition and other Tasman representative teams. Dedicated to supplying the best quality fruit, Golden Bay Fruit was created in 2008 by multi-generation growers who decided to create a sustainable business for future generations. Today Golden Bay Fruit is home to over 750 hectares of apple orchards and over 100 hectares of kiwifruit, led by experienced and passionate people. Golden Bay Fruit package and

export a large selection of premium apples and pears from its largely automated packing warehouse in Motueka, managed by founding partners Heath Wilkins of Birdhurst Orchards and Evan Heywood of Heywood Orchards. Both are keen rugby enthusiasts with children playing the game, Heath and Evan are proud to support female rugby in the region, The women’s game is New Zealand Rugby’s largest growing demographic. They know many of the young players who have graduated to the Tasman Mako from Motueka. “Our philosophy to growing and marketing fruit is based on quality, sustainability and partnering, and we will bring those same values to helping Tasman Rugby grow female participation,” Heath says. “As a global exporter and with

the Rugby World Cup for women being held in New Zealand in 2021, the timing of this opportunity to help grow female rugby participation couldn’t be better,” says Evan TRU chief executive Tony Lewis says the partnership is ideal. “Horticulture is a major economic driver in Te Tau Ihu and for Golden Bay Fruit to recognise the value of female rugby to connect with their stakeholders is particularly pleasing. We welcome their involvement of in our game and our Union.” According to TRU commercial manager Les Edwards, the female rugby opportunity was made possible by the generosity of Nelson Pine Industries Ltd who made the front jersey space available. “NPIL will continue to be the Union’s Principal Sponsor with the Golden Edge brand front and centre of the Tasman and other men’s teams.”

NELSON COLLEGE PREPARATORY SCHOOL Young men taking their place in the world

INFORMATION EVENING Entry 7 & 8, 2021

Wednesday 1st July, 7pm College Main Entrance

We invite boys and their families to join us for our Information Evening.

As we all have noticed, the upgrade is clearly underway in the main street. This is a disrupting time for traffic so allow a little extra time travelling the main street. The roadside build -outs are to slow traffic and make the road safer for walkers and children by closing the street in a little, allowing for wider footpaths. This will also allow for cars to be parked more safely off the road. We as a community have voted for the two street-visual crossings and have decided upon the atoms at the entrance to Brightwater, that is Ellis Street and Lord Rutherford Road, and the Waimea River with eels as the visual crossing near the 4 Square. Street security cameras update We have now installed and have fully operating cameras in 4 locations in Brightwater and these have already proven successful over the past two months with some crime and issues being caught on camera. This adds good security to the Brightwater community. We are now looking for a second trench of funding to push on with

stage two of this development and add more cameras to other Brightwater locations that could benefit from security. The cameras are installed and relayed back to the Wakefield Police station. Good news We are all now back at level one so please come back and support the Brightwater businesses. It was great to see just how many used our river and tracks and parks over the lockdown, we live in a great community. If anyone out there is in need of help or support please feel free to contact the Brightwater association. Supporting the BGW CCTV Thanks to: Brightwater Fire Brigade, Brightwater School.

Brightwater residents Engine Capacityat 30.1cc odds over redesign Matt McCrorie Reporter

matt@waimeaweekly.co.nz

Brightwater residents have raised concerns over several ‘calming blocks’ online that are being installed onto Ellis Street as part of the Brightwater main street upgrade. A $1.9 million dollar upgrade to Ellis Street was started by the Tasman District Council earlier this year. Traffic calming islands have been introduced to the Street, designed to slow down vehicles and make the street safer for the community. The footpath is also being widened to create a shared pathway for cyclists and pedestrians. Brightwater resident Amy Louise says that she was ‘disappointed’ with the changes being made. “I was excited about the prospect of a safer street.” But she says that she is ‘utterly disappointed’ with the outcome.

“Our local Cafe and Loggers shop went from approximately five carparks in front of their businesses to three carparks one of which now holds three unsightly bike stands on top of a ‘calming island’ “My fear is that in wanting Brightwaters main street to be prettier and focused on walkers and bikers we are losing realistic functionality of our town’s main road.” Another Brightwater resident, Shannon Best, agreed that the ‘calming blocks’ were a hazard. “I feel putting in the big concrete blocks on the road is a hazard for cars, cyclists and trucks and is also taking away well used parking spots.” Brightwater Community Association chair Matt Stuart says that the upgrade will mean safer streets for Brightwater. “Whenever we have change, people are going to worry about it, absolutely,” Matt says.

“These islands are designed to slow traffic, and I think that will make the street more family friendly.” Planning meetings were held last year, where the Brightwater community was encouraged to have their say Matt is encouraging residents to get involved with the Brightwater Community association, so that they can use their voice as a community in the future. “There was a discussion, and I think if you want to get involved, get involved from the start, and use your voice as a Matt Stuart, chair of the community.” Brightwater CommuMatt says that he hopes that nity Association, is enMS 170 Brightwater residents will see couraging locals to get Chainsaw the upgrade as a chance to get involved in community involved with theCapacity community Engine 30.1cc groups to have more of association and Bar be actively Length in- 14” a say in their commuvolved in the futureWeight of Bright-3.9kg nity after community water. members have raised NOW “We would love for more resiconcerns online over the dents to get involved, for peonew Ellis Street upgrade ple to come and have their say and redesign.

Why work for nothing? That is exactly what thousands of New Zealanders do every day of the week by giving up their free time to be volunteers. Volunteers contribute 159 million volunteer hours per year, the value of this labour is estimated at $4 billion. Gordon Oldfield, manager of Volunteer Nelson, says that volunteers can be found in just about every sector, including health and social services, emergency services, environmental services, conservation and community sports. We would not recognize our community without volunteers. New Zealand often punches above its weight in many areas. This is most often seen in the sporting arena where elite sportsmen and woman The Volunteer Nelson team at the Volunteering Expo.

Covid-19 response has highlighted courage and kindness in uniting together. Working collaboratively as the country comes out of Covid-19 will make communities stronger and volunteers will continue to play an integral role in this. Now more than ever, Gordon says, “as a volunteering community we commit to manaakitanga and whakawhanaungatanga". National Volunteer Week 2020 is an opportunity for everyone to recognise all volunteers: whether volunteering for an essential service, virtual volunteering, people thinking about volunteering or those who normally volunteer but have stayed home to save lives. every volunteer is valued and contributes to strengthening communities The range of volunteering opportunities in the Nelson Tasman region is enormous and the core business of Volunteer Nelson is to refer people who have registered with the agency to organizations that need volunteers. An online volunteering referral system is available from the Volunteer Nelson website www.volunteernelson.org.nz. This allows members of the public to go online and, after providing some details, do a search for a volunteering role that

If you would prefer to talk face-to-face with someone about volunteering then Ellie Young, volunteering and community coordinator, is the person in the Volunteer Nelson team to speak to. She says, "Here at Volunteer Nelson, we are passionate about linking people to a broad range of volunteer roles and organisations where both gain incredible benefits. It's a win-win! After the Covid-19 lockdown, many people want to volunteer and support their community. Volunteering is a great way to build your connection and belonging to a community while making a valuable contribution”. She added that quite a few of those who come to the Volunteer Nelson office, which is located at 83A Buxton Square, are new comers to the area who feel that they would like to participate in the community. Gordon says that volunteering was an effective way for newcomers to settle successfully in the region. It is for this reason that Volunteer Nelson

runs a Migrant Volunteering programme as well as organizing the Nelson Newcomers Network. The benefits of being a volunteer are well documented. There’s better health and the ’feel good’ endorphins that volunteering releases; and other health benefits such as extending longevity and reducing depression in many people. If the last few weeks have been difficult, then volunteering in the community may just be the thing to help you feel better and feel connected. Volunteer Nelson run a number of programmes to help people into volunteering. The youth programme trains youth workers and allows them to lead other young people in a community project. Young people are also taught about governance so that they can lead or participate in leading an organization. In ad-

dition, there are programmes designed to encourage older adults and those living with a disability into working in the community. As poet and essayist Ralph Waldo Emerson observed, “It is one of the beautiful compensations of life that no man can sincerely help another without helping himself.” Join us this week for National Volunteer Week to celebrate how our communities are stronger when working together. Volunteers help shape the world we want to live in, now and into the future.

Seven years ago, some caring local women wanted a way to contribute to the community and to address a specific need.

Netball teams provided a welcome and entertaining return to club sport for 2020 with games at Saxton Fields on Saturday. After the enforced hibernation experienced by all sports participants, it was an extremely happy group of ladies who were tasked with providing the first competitive outing for the Brightwater club, with three teams enjoying the opening games in the Nelson Netball Championships. With two teams entered in senior fifth grade, Wanderers Gold and Wanderers CSC were drawn together for the first match and, although many are long-time friends, an entertaining, fully-competitive match ensued. At the end of the third quarter, teams were locked at 20-20 before a fine final quarter saw the Coldstore Construction team move clear for a 29-22 victory. Both captains, Susan Lummis (Gold) and Tina Brewerton (CSC) commented positively on the enjoyment gained by all members being able to play again in smart new uniforms and the fact that fitness held up so well despite the 13 weeks

Nelson Matters

I worry about the future of healthcare in Nelson under radical reforms announced by the Government last week. The risk of centralisation for Nelson is a loss of health services and key decisions being made elsewhere. Four big changes are proposed. A new national agency, Health NZ, would be created for managing clinical services alongside the existing Ministry of Health. A special and separate Maori Health Authority would be established. All District Health Board (DHB) members would be appointed by the Minister of Health, rather than 7 out of 11 being elected. The number of Health Boards is to be

reduced from the current 20 to between 8 and 12. The problem for Nelson/ Marlborough is that our DHB has a population of 150,000, but the new model requires between 420,000 and 620,000 people. The most likely outcome is our health services being run from Wellington or Christchurch. Ian Powell, an expert voice for hospital specialists says “Hospital services outside the main cities will be reduced” and that these proposals “will be a stuff up.” Nelson has had control of its own health services for over a century since the first hospital board was established in 1885. It will be

harder for our frontline doctors, our nurses and other health professionals to be heard by management from afar. It will be less connected with our GPs, pharmacies, community health organisations and councils. It will make my job as MP in advocating for constituents and services more difficult. A key issue in healthcare is in ensuring the funds go into front line public services and not administration. These proposals add two new national agencies and two “Regional entities”. This can only lead to increases in the health bureaucracy. Our Nelson Marlborough District Health Board has consistently out-

delay. Taylors Wanderers Sports Club has conducted an active recruiting process which resulted in a new team being established and entered in the senior sixth grade. Wanderers Blue had their debut game on Saturday morning against Suburban White. As is often the case when a team plays together for the first time, nerves and combinations took a little while to settle down and the team found themselves down by 12 goals at three-quarter-time before gelling much better in the final quarter for a final score of 22-16. This week will see rugby also re-start following the match on March 14, where the Taylors Wanderers division one team had started the season in fine form with a good victory recorded over Nelson, 37-14. Saturday will see the team visit Stoke at Greenmeadows with a 3pm kick off, and coach Glenn Grant is looking to the team to build on the fine start, albeit 15 weeks ago. The Wanderers Women’s team, sponsored by 3 Bee, will travel to Riwaka for their opening match at 1.15pm. This team has displayed a fine team

ethos at training and coach Jo Cotton is expecting to develop that camaraderie during matches. Balancing the new and experienced players together has gone well so far. The division two men’s team will also travel away this week with new coaches Evan Coote and Alan Davis taking their charges to Motueka Sports Ground to confront Huia in their opening match for the season. Live sport will return to Centennial Park on July 4 with both Taylors Wanderers women and division one teams hosting Moutere and Kahurangi at Brightwater. This is an opportunity for the entire area to show support for local teams, as well as supporting the Brightwater and Wakefield communities. Wanderers netball draws for Saturday: Senior 5 9am-- Wanderers Gold v Richmond Ratbags at Saxton stadium 4 1pm – Wanderers CSC v Marist Wairua at Saxton stadium 4 Senior 6 12pm -- Wanderers Blue v Rivals Sapphires at Saxton stadium 4.

performed the larger metropolitan DHBs. It did a good job through the Covid emergency. A key to success has been attracting top specialists. I am also proud of our history of innovation in areas like cardiac care that has saved dozens of Nelsonian’s lives. Our DHB has also been a leader in integrating primary and secondary health care. These health changes are similar to those to polytechnics that has seen Nelson lose control of NMIT now the Nelson branch of NZIST. This change has already seen the loss of top talent from Nelson like CEO Liam Sloane. NMIT employs 300 and our NMDHB over 2,000.

They are Nelson’s biggest employers. I fear centralisation will result in fewer jobs for Nelsonians. I also share the scepticism of expert health commentators who see the parallel to those changes with what occurred in the UK, known as the Lansley reforms. They failed, particularly in the regions, and are now being reversed. I am not opposed to all of the changes. I agree with having a consistent Digital Plan across our healthcare system. But Nelson has everything to lose and nothing to gain from losing our DHB. I will fight with every bone in my body for Nelson to retain our DHB. Advt.

Dressage action returns The Nelson Winter Dressage Series is back on the agenda. As with all organised sport around New Zealand, dressage was on hold when the country was in levels three and four. However, once the government announced a move to level 2, the Nelson Dressage Committee had a plan in place to get our Pitt & Moore Winter Series up and going as quickly as possible. Within 12 hours of entries opening there were 45 riders entered and, in less than 24 hours, the event reached the government 100 person gathering limit. With just over a week gone, all other behind-the-scenes jobs were sorted, a huge undertaking for a small group. It was a perfect day to be back at dressage, not a cloud in the sky and a frosty start, and by 7:30 am Rough Island Equestrian Park was already buzzing with people excited to be back out competing again. With a skeleton crew for the day, only 10 officials including judges, writers and scorers, we were all raring to go. It was encouraging to see lots of new faces to dressage and many young riders, several giving the adults a run for their money.

While numbers in the graded classes this time were quite light, many were scoring well with several breaking the magic 70% mark, or coming very close. Stand-outs on the day were Mary Ellis on her lovely young horse, competing for the first time, scoring into the mid-seventies in both introductory tests.

The youngest rider, at six-yearsold, was Paige Waldren on her cute wee pony Sparkles, scoring well in the lead rein class, with both tests in the mid-seventies. In the graded level one class we had Julie Fraser on her gorgeous new youngster scoring into the seventies with both tests. Stepping up to level two this sea-

son is local young rider Meila Picard on her lovely giant My Mojo Man, with 68 per cent and 69 per cent, winning both tests. But snapping at her heels was newly-registered and new to dressage Yvonne Watson on her homebred riding pony, just a per cent behind in both tests. Not only were the riders keen to

A dynamic duo from Waimea College’s Senior A team says that teamwork was the key ingredient for their first win of the season. Captain and vice-captain, Milly Thurlow and Jade Gower, have been playing side by side for nearly a decade, and say that their partnership helped them secure the win. “Whenever Milly and I are on the court at the same time I always look to feed her in the circle,” Jade says. Waimea College’s Senior A team took on Jacks Club Black team last Saturday. It was a close call in the first quarter, with both teams coming out firing for their first game of the season, ending the first quarter 8-8. By half-time Waimea had taken the lead 17-13, with Milly giving a standout performance with her strong shooting. Club team Jacks Black kept up with the Waimea girls because of their strong defence, never letting them get more than a 5-goal lead and

After such a dull, wet week, it was great to see the sun shining for the last race in the Wallace Shield Series for 2020, held at Rabbit Island on Saturday. Runners were excited to complete the last of three races, especially after the lack of races throughout the lockdown period.

participants found out their handicap and prepared for this last race that gave everyone an equal chance of winning. The race finished with a 700m stretch on the beach and athletes pushed themselves to the limit as large groups were approaching the finish line at the same time. Improving her position with each race in the series was Karen Griffiths, the overall winner of the Wallace Shield and medal. Close behind her on points, and runner-up, was Kim Woollett, who put in con-

sistent performances over the three races. It was great to see enthusiastic younger participants running well and obviously enjoying themselves, with Nia Linyard, Josh West and Mia CainTownley taking out first place in the 1, 2 and 3 lap series respectively. This Saturday, runners and walkers of all abilities are welcome to take part in the first Sprig and Fern 10km event, which encompasses the very beautiful seafront and inlet walkways of Motueka.

NEWSLINE UPDATES KE E PING YOU INFORME D ABOUT NEWS AND EVE NTS IN THE TASMAN DISTRICT

24 JUNE 2020

Changes coming for plastic recycling

Sport NZ Rural Travel Fund – apply now!

Tasman Resource Management Plan updates

Starting from next week – 1 July – we’ll only be accepting plastics labelled as 1, 2, and 5. These can be recycled locally. At this time we will stop accepting plastics 3, 4, 6 and 7. These cannot be recycled in New Zealand and are very difficult to find an overseas market for. So please think about the plastics that you buy (check the number to make sure you’re getting 1, 2 and 5) and reduce plastic use where you can.

Previously delayed during the COVID-19 response, the Sport NZ Rural Travel Fund applications are now invited until 10 July. The Sport NZ Rural Travel Fund offers help with travel costs for rural sports clubs and rural school teams. The fund is to help young people aged from 5 to 19 to participate in local sports competitions. Sport NZ fully funds the Rural Travel Fund, which Council administers locally on their behalf. The next funding round closes on 10 July 2020. Head to tasman.govt.nz/ link/grants for more information and how to apply.

Commencement of Operative Change 69 to Parts I and II

Cleaning and repairs in Sundial Square

Watch out for winter driving conditions Icy winter roads pose a significant challenge for driving at this time of year. To help with this, we are gritting ice-prone sections of roads around the district, as needed. While grit applied to the road surface can help, it doesn’t make the road completely safe. The most important way to keep yourself and your passengers safe is to drive to the conditions. High risk areas to watch out for are south-facing shaded patches of road, and inland valleys. Any dark or damp section of road should be approached with extreme caution during periods of cold weather.

Apply for a rates rebate before 30 June The deadline for applications for a rates rebate for the 2019/2020 rating year is 30 June 2020. Application forms and more information are available at Council offices or online at tasman.govt.nz.

Moturoa Rabbit Island closure Public access to the eastern half of Moturoa/ Rabbit Island will be closed on two days this winter while the Nelson Marlborough Fish & Game Pheasant Hunt takes place. Please note that the closure will include all of the beach front at the eastern end. The hunts are timed to coincide with low tide to avoid any effect on shore birds. No hunting is allowed within 100 metres of the high tide mark. This year the hunts will take place on the following dates: • Saturday 27 June, 8.30 am – 3.00 pm (Sunday 28 June reserve day) • Saturday 11 July, 8.30 am – 3.00 pm (Sunday 12 July reserve day) Map of area closed due to hunting:

If you’ve noticed something missing in Sundial Square – don’t worry. The plaques and the sundial itself have been removed for cleaning and repairs. The work to clean and refurbish the plaques and make repairs to the sundial is likely to take some months to complete. This is being done by a local plumbing firm that has worked on the plaques previously. The damage is simply a result of general wear and tear so the plaques will be treated before they are put back in place to protect them in the future. There is also a plan to include some of the details on the plaques on some new information boards soon. Please bear with us while we carry out this essential maintenance.

Dangerous roadside trees removed for free In conjunction with the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment (MBIE), Tasman District Council is offering a free service to remove hazardous trees from rural roadsides. The aim of this project is to improve the safety of our roads and redeploy workers from all industries affected by the COVID-19 response. We’d like to know about any problems in your area, particularly: • Overhanging trees or branches that could fall onto the footpath or road. • Overgrown trees that reduce road users' views of the road. Fill in the online submission at tasman.govt.nz (search = tree hazard), or email us at projects@tasman.govt.nz, with your name, contact phone number, the location of the hazard and a brief description of the problem. If you can, please provide photos.

Creative Communities funding applications open until 10 July Tasman District Council’s Creative Communities Scheme has funding available to help groups and individuals running arts projects in our area. Funded by Creative New Zealand, the Creative Communities Scheme is designed to support opportunities for communities to participate in the arts, of any kind. There is a focus on art projects that have a broad community involvement, involve young people, or support the diverse arts and cultural traditions of local communities. If you think that fits with your project, we’d love to hear from you. Visit tasman.govt.nz/link/creative-communities for more information and to complete an application form.

Proposed Plan Change 69 (Nelson Tasman Land Development Manual) was approved on 28 November 2019 to commence as an Operative Change to the Tasman Resource Management Plan from 20 June 2020.

Withdrawal of Proposed Change 37 to Part II Proposed Plan Change 37 (Richmond West and South Greenway), notified on 18 August 2012, was approved on 21 May 2020 to be withdrawn and will be removed from the Tasman Resource Management Plan from 20 June 2020. Further details are available on Council’s website: tasman.govt.nz/link/trmp-pc.

HAVE YOUR SAY Proposed Plan Changes 71 – Coastal Occupation Charges and 72 – Moorings and Coastal Structures and

Consolidated Bylaw – Statement of Proposal Draft Mooring Area Bylaw Council is looking at changing the rules for moorings and coastal structures in our District. We need your input to ensure the proposed rules are appropriate for our environment and for users of our coastal areas, including boaties using moorings. We are also proposing a bylaw to implement the new rules and to provide control over new mooring areas. We’d value your input on the draft bylaw too. Council is proposing to provide for moorings within 11 mooring areas as permitted activities in the Tasman Resource Management Plan, subject to the mooring owner holding a mooring licence issued under this bylaw by the Harbourmaster. The moorings licence will have conditions regarding the location, safety and management of the mooring. This draft bylaw also includes provisions to enable the Harbourmaster to allocate space, issue, vary and review the conditions, re-issue and revoke licences and provide a waitlist for moorings within the mooring Areas. We are also proposing not to include a coastal occupation charging regime in our Plan. The proposed changes and bylaw can be viewed at Council’s Richmond, Takaka and Motueka offices and libraries or online at tasman.govt.nz/link/trmp-pc under Proposed Plan Change 71 or 72. Submission forms are also available. Submissions close 4.00 pm, Monday 27 July 2020 and can be sent to Environmental Policy, Tasman District Council, Private Bag 4, Richmond 7050 or emailed to tasmanrmp@tasman.govt.nz.
