From the photos you can see how the nefariously minded think nothing of recycling hot water cylinders.

I see Red Zoning as a positive response in broad terms to the Earth Quakes and wonder if Sea Level rise should not be factored into the rebuild? It has been mentioned before and if we're going to address it, now is the time to do so.
Raw sewage is regularly making its way into the Avon etc. Don't let the kids play in puddles in Christchurch.

Helen Broughton has her failings but she does reflect community concerns about WESTFEILDS unlimited growth and is likely to be rewarded for that as Riccarton/Addington become the new CBD.
As for the Merivalian Man of Mauve - Paul Lonsdale ... it's horse before the cart to focus on the old city centre rather than other aspects of city life, where we live and work now.

No Sam Johnson, but we do have Mark Belton, Lisle Hood, Rik Tindall. standing.

Oh dear that link got a bit scary. -
Whatever else happens I do hope the Swastika tiles are saved from the Christchurch Cathedral.
It says so much about colonialism and appropriation.
I'm sure the chimney on that Strowan Rd house won't be rebricked with the same design. -

Anyone know of Daniel Wright? He seems to aim to do some good work after his own personal crisis (whatever that was).
Seems to have all the trappings of an evangelical, but no mention of God or requests for cash. There was the campaign for the council to focus on core services, after the Ellerslie Flower show that has a lot of support, but then again there are the CCC Geese laying golden eggs too.
