Council checks quarry the regional council to the quarry’s noncompliance on April 1, said if neither the regional nor district council decide to take any subsequent legal action against the quarry, he would.

He told Waipā chief executive Garry Dyet in a Code of Conduct complaint against Andree-Wiltens on April 23, he was prepared to take a private prosecution for breaches of the Resource Management Act (RMA) if the council did not act.

Lynch confirmed anyone could do that, including the regional council, if it deemed there were any serious breaches of the RMA. “While we are still completing our enquiries, a breach of the aspects of the RMA administered by the regional council has not been identified.”

Waikato’s environmental watch dog has finally visited the site of an illegal Waipā sand quarry – 28 days after it was alerted to its existence.

Waikato Regional Council says there were no “apparent risks” to the environment on the day of its inspection and members of the incident response team took the opportunity to provide advice on the installation of erosion and sediment controls while they were there.

The Oreipunga Road quarry in Maungatautari operated without a resource consent for at least five years by Beacon Hill Contracting. All operations at the quarry were suspended on April 13 by Waipā District Council.

One of the four shareholders in the company is Elwyn Andree-Wiltens who resigned as a Waipā district councillor on April 25 because of her involvement in the quarry and “perceived” conflict of interest.

In a response to The News on why it took the regional council so long to visit the site, compliance manager Patrick Lynch said the council receives more than 2200 complaints a year regarding the environment.

Pressed on how many related to illegal sand quarries close to the Waikato River, Lynch said the calls were “many and varied.”

And in another confusing development, Waipā District Council says it received a resource consent application for the quarry on Monday after it was submitted two days earlier by consultants acting for Beacon Hill yet Andree-Wiltens told The News it was submitted on April 20.

Mitchell Daysh, a Hamilton-based specialist consultancy, said it provided the district council with a draft consent application to show Beacon Hill made “meaningful attempts” to address the noncompliance.

Rhys Powell, who originally tipped off

Cambridge chief fire officer Don Gerrand was farewelled by hundreds of people who lined the streets and packed into the Town Hall on Saturday.

Driving Flick and Don Gerrand to the funeral service at the Town Hall was Don Weinberg with deputy fire chief Dennis Hunt in the passenger seat and at rear Richard Crease, left, and Peter Wright, right. Chairs were installed outside the Town Hall for those who could not get a seat inside, where 500 were set aside for family, friends and dignitaries.

feedback from ourselves,” said Lynch.

Meanwhile Waipā District Growth and Regulatory services group manager Wayne Allan, who was unavailable to talk to The News but provided a statement via email, said the council had not used any sand from the quarry for council-related projects.

And Service Delivery general manager Dawn Inglis said the council was not aware of any contractors using sand from the quarry on any council projects.

“Contractors are required to demonstrate that their products are of the required quality and meet all of our standards, however they are not required to provide source information for materials used,” she said.

No rivers were impacted at the time of the inspection or would have been when the quarry was operating, he said.

The regional council was now establishing whether the activity met Permitted Activity rules under the Waikato Regional Plan.

Yet Mitchell Daysh consultants, who lodged the resource consent application with the district council, also filed an earthworks consent application with the regional council just before close of business on Friday May 6.

The incident response team told Beacon Hill the regional council would complete assessments to check whether any other consents were needed.

“The landowners submitted a consent application on Friday prior to any further

Stand down…

Yesterday at 11am I heard something unusual - the fire siren sounded, not the “alert” but the “all clear”. My mind went back 80 years to the London “blitz” when the alert meant take cover and the all clear - danger passed. To me, it said, “thanks fire chief Don, stand down, now you can go home, you’ve earnt the rest, enjoy the peace”.

In response James Parlane (Letters, May 5) the first point he made is correct. There are many definitions of inflation.

The definition I talk about in my columns is Consumer Price Inflation (CPI) because that is the definition of inflation specified in the RBNZ’s Policy Target Agreement with the Minister of Finance. That is the measure of inflation the RBNZ is responsible for controlling.

His second point about underlying inflation is wrong.

Making the pieces fit A new competition run by Waipā District Libraries during the April school holidays found a clever solution to the problem of jigsaws made maddeningly frustrating through lost bits.

‘Jigsaw Art’ ran across both Cambridge and Te Awamutu libraries, combining their usual April holidays art theme with one using jigsaw pieces from incomplete puzzles. It called on contestants in both towns to recycle random jigsaw bits into something creative and original.

Dee Atkinson, Waipā District Council’s outreach librarian, said 27 entries came in across the two libraries.

Judges were brought in from outside the libraries.

CPI number published by the Department of Statistics. So the figures we have heard for the last 25 years have not been a huge underestimate as claimed

by Mr Parlane.

His third point was that for the ‘last 50 years this country has lived beyond its means’ and that is why we now have inflation. But for the last 25 years, inflation in New Zealand has been very low. It has only reappeared strongly in the last two years. One of the main contributors to its reappearance is the excessive liquidity and low interest rate policies of the world’s major Central Banks and the RBNZ. Central Banks used to be described as the ones who took away the punch bowl just as the party got started. In recent years, however, they have been the ones who kept topping up the punch bowl even as the party moved into a dangerous phase.

In a recent statement, the RBNZ admitted despite the increases in its official cash rate, its policy settings are still below neutral. So it still hasn’t taken away the punch bowl – it is just filling it more slowly.

Briefs…

Coles rules out bid

Cambridge ward councillor Philip Coles has ruled out a bid for the Waipā mayoralty but has confirmed he will stand for council again at October’s local body elections. Only incumbent Jim Mylchreest, who stood unopposed at the last election, has publicly said he is standing for mayor.

In court

A 31-year-old was due to appear in court in Hamilton today facing a series of charges following a treble stabbing at a Cambridge restaurant last week. Three people were taken to hospital following the attack.

On and off again

An apparent quick-fix for improving Waikato Expressway access from south of Cambridge is getting strong support. Adding two ramps at the end of Tirau Road near Cambridge Golf Course is a “no brainer” said Donna Allen. Denise Hall said the interchange design was wrong and Bernie Frost noted “that’s the problem having intellectuals designing things without consulting those with common sense”.

In the running

Predator Free Cambridge has been nominated for the 2022 Volunteering Waikato Team Excellence Award. The group’s 50 volunteers are involved in helping native fauna and flora by trapping pests on Waipā District Council land across the town.

Third bridge closer

A Waipā transport strategy has confirmed the need for a third bridge over the Waikato River in Cambridge. The strategy was agreed following a sixweek consultation period earlier this year. A business case will make a pitch for government funding to help pay for the new bridge.

Legal twist in council sacking

By Roy Pilott

The vote of a single councillor when Waikato Regional Council chair Russ Rimmington got rolled this week prompted his suggestion it would result in a judicial review.

Rimmington was dumped by an 8-6 margin on Monday and then nominated Barry Quayle as his successor.

Ironically, Waipā’s Stu Kneebone, who moved that Rimmington be sacked, seconded the motion for Quayle.

But councillors were told Fred Lichtwark’s vote on the sacking could compromise it because he had earlier announced how he would vote on radio.

Rimmington, 76, has been relegated to the benches five months out from the local body elections.

If the former Hamilton

mayor was thinking of retiring from the political scene this year, it is a fair bet he will now seriously consider another term as a Hamilton ward member.

He told The News this week he had “unfinished business.”

Rimmington remains a passionate supporter of the Te Huia rail service, which he believes needs marketing – and he is also concerned that the major political parties cannot agree on Three Waters, and a new Government could scrap it, effectively wasting the millions of dollars already spent on the process Rimmington had to get one of the eight councillors who earlier called on him to stand down to change tack – but had not done so when the issue went to the vote on Monday.

Lichtwark was never

going to be one of them – with Rimmington in the chair he was suspended from all council committees, subcommittees and other representative roles early last year following complaints about his behaviour.

Rimmington told The News the result of the vote went against the advice of constitutional lawyer Mai Chen. Whether or not he will take legal action so close to an election is a moot point, but he did suggest the electorate would have its say in October.

He estimated it would cost $100,000 to take private action.

His ousting has exposed a bitter division in the council.

Rimmington was gracious in defeat, telling councillors it had been an honour to lead them – but he signalled there would be a judicial review on the issue.

Deputy chair Kataraina Hodge and councillors Lichtwark, Tipa Mahuta, Denis Tegg, Angela Strange, Jennifer Nickel and Waipā-King Country representatives Andrew MacPherson and Stu Kneebone ousted the chair.

Pamela Storey, Stu Husband, Hugh Vercoe, Kathy White and Quayle all backed him.

Hamilton city councillors Geoff Taylor and Mark Bunting both spoke at this week’s council meeting urging councillors not to roll their chair. Both said they appeared in a private capacity.

Rimmington’s directness – variously described as being a bit too blunt and shooting from the hip – put him offside with councillors when he questioned the level of Māori influence on the Three Waters plan.

Russ Rimmington

But councillors did not heed Bunting’s call to “focus on what is said, not how it was said,” and the man who moved the motion – Waipa councillor Stu Kneebone said Three Waters was not the issue.

He accused Rimmington of misrepresenting the council’s position on issues.

Rubbish dump stays shut

By Mary Anne Gill

Cambridge’s transfer station is unlikely to be opened anytime soon and operator Envirowaste says the Matos Segedin Drive facility needs a major safety upgrade first.

The transfer station closed last August.

Waipā District Council, which gives Envirowaste $26,700 annually to support the station being open for longer hours in response to historic community demand, wants to know when it will reopen.

In a statement, the council said councillors were getting feedback from the community who assumed the council was responsible for the facility.

Council’s group manager – Service Delivery, Dawn Inglis said council would review its Waste Minimisation and Management Plan in 2023, which will take a holistic view of the need for, and delivery of, all waste management services across the district.

Inglis said staff had been in contact with Envirowaste and there was no update on reopening at the present time.

“We understand that Envirowaste are taking a business case to their board about reopening options. They have not yet provided a timeline of when we will receive the information.”

Envirowaste communications

manager Georgie Hills said the company was keen to work with the council to find a sustainable solution.

“Historically, the site handled relatively low volumes of the community’s recycling and rubbish, however we know people valued the service it provided close to home,” she said.

“Keeping people safe on our sites is a key focus for us and we’ve been open about the fact the site requires a major safety upgrade.

“Since it closed, we have been exploring options for reopening the facility on a safe and commercially viable basis, taking into account expected usage and the current economic environment.”

No timeline for reopening has been set yet, she said.

“We applaud the community’s commitment to recycling and waste minimisation and acknowledge the efforts of local residents who have switched to alternative facilities.

“We apologise for the inconvenience and will provide a further update once we have more information to share,” said Hills.

Residents can use the neighbouring Waste Management Te Awamutu Waste Transfer Station at 2 Daphne Street or the Resource Recovery Centre on Lincoln Street in Hamilton.

The News reported in February that residents wanted to know when the transfer centre would reopen.

Kaipaki faces fence battle

By Mary Anne Gill

The conflict between ruralbased industries and lifestylers is something Waipā District Council says is not uncommon – and the latest example is in Kaipaki.

Agricultural contractor Karl Schwitzer has resource consent to operate a contractors’ yard for cutting and supplying hay to farmers. He also has permission to put a new shed on the site at the intersection of Goodwin and Kaipaki Road opposite the primary school.

But some Kaipaki residents are unhappy saying Schwitzer has built an ugly corrugated iron fence which is higher than what he has consent for and two additional shed bays are larger than what was shown in the consent.

They also say Schwitzer plans to move the former Bunnings building onto the site which would be an inappropriate building for Kaipaki and not in keeping with the rural zone.

Schwitzer acknowledged the fence at 2.5m is higher than the allowed 1.8m high but says he put it up because burglars scaled the smaller fence he had, cut open 55 bales of hay and stole them.

The fence was silver but this week he painted it black so it would blend in with a nearby hedge. “The fence is no bigger than the hedge,” he said. “Now it looks pretty smart.”

Schwitzer also said the council had visited his yard three weeks

The corrugated iron fence residents say is not in keeping with the rural environment in Kaipaki.

ago and said the shed bays comply with his resource consent.

He confirmed he had asked the council about the possibility of moving part of the old Bunnings building out to the yard for a storage shed but nothing had come of it yet.

“I understand you’ve got to comply with the rules,” said Schwitzer who acknowledged the conflict between businesses like his and rural lifestylers.

"I can understand from their point of view.”

He said he supported the community by recently felling 12 big poplar trees from the school grounds.

Waipā district plan and growth manager Tony Quickfall said lifestylers often have expectations of a rural amenity which differ from the District Plan.

Rural zone rules, approved through the public process of reviewing the District Plan, reflect the rural environment is a

“working environment” which permits a range of commercial activities and associated noise and visual effects, he said.

“If there is evidence that permitted land use activities are giving risk to significant adverse effects, the Resource Management Act provides for plan changes to the District Plan,” said Quickfall.

“The council does not have evidence of any district-wide trends or cumulative significant effects in the rural zones that would justify a plan change.”

If Schwitzer’s fence was higher than 1.8m, it would breach the District Plan rules and must be removed or he would have to obtain a resource consent.

Quickfall said a planner last visited the site on April 13 last year to process the original application which was to establish a rural based industry, build a workshop storage shed, one implement shed and move an industrial building from 13 Matos Segedin Drive.

U3A heads to Cambridge

Local businesswoman Carey Church is starting a University of the Third Age (U3A) in Cambridge.

Planning is advanced for a meeting from 10.30am-noon on May 24 at the Cambridge Health and Community Centre in Taylor St. Pre-register for the meeting through www.U3Acambridge.org.nz or phone 021 401 951.

Carey will call for ideas for speakers and interest groups, and a decision will be made on whether future meetings will be on either the second Tuesday or Friday of each month, depending on feedback.

Carey is a lifelong learner who is currently studying for her final papers in a law degree while running her successful business, Moneyworks. She thinks the time is right for Cambridge to embrace the international U3A concept.

The worldwide U3A movement started in France in 1973, aimed at broadening education and knowledge to those in the ‘third age’ of life. It has since gone global, with the first U3A in New Zealand starting in 1985 in Remuera. There are now 84 groups nationwide, with memberships ranging from 100 to 1100.

Meetings attract a wide range of speakers, while affiliated interest groups focus on topics that can include anything from art history and philosophy to tying fishing flies.

Early speakers already booked for Cambridge include top international banker Peter Nicholl, and Waikato University international law professor Al Gillespie.

Carey is also looking for volunteers to convene special groups and to help at the meetings.professor Al Gillespie.

Lyndall Hermitage joined the Rotorua U3A 11 years ago while living there, and said the group had been tremendously successful.

“I started their art history group, and that has gone so well that I still go down to Carey Church, right, is keen to start a U3A here. Seen their meetings even though I now live in with her is committee member and a long-time fan of the movement, Lyndall Hermitage.

Anglican vicar welcomed to Cambridge

By Viv Posselt

Rev Jennie Savage’s move to take the reins as the new St Andrew’s Church vicar had a bumpy start.

Flip-flopping Covid restrictions meant the family dog Saga arrived in Cambridge three months before her owners did. The brindle Staghound found a temporary but welcoming hearth within the church family and was part of the furniture by the time Jennie and her husband Sav finally arrived on Maundy Thursday.

“Under normal circumstances, I’d have taken a week to settle in, but instead prepared to lead services on Easter Sunday,” Jennie said. “Everyone was so welcoming, but then I had been in communication with the congregation for some time via Zoom services and chat sessions. I had met well over 70 people here without ever setting foot in New Zealand.”

Because Jennie’s formal induction on February 3 took place via Zoom, St Andrew’s held a service of celebration on May 2 to formally welcome the couple in person. The service was led by the Anglican Bishop of Waikato and Taranaki, the Most Rev Philip Richardson.

Despite their halting travel plans, it’s clear there was a plan afoot upstairs to have Jennie

fill the shoes vacated by Malcolm French, the St Andrew’s vicar who left last August.

Jennie had previously eyed out an appointment in New Zealand, but while that didn’t materialise, she made enough of an impression for the hierarchy here to suggest she apply for another upcoming vacancy.

That was Cambridge and her appointment was announced in early September.

Getting here was another matter. They

had seven tries at securing an MIQ spot.

Once past that hurdle and waiting to depart Melbourne on December 27, airport officials told them to go home.

“I thought we had done everything right … but new border exemption changes meant we couldn’t leave,” she said. “It was very, very frustrating, but we were fortunately provided with accommodation by friends. We decided to still send Saga over in late January as she

had been in boarding kennels since just before Christmas.”

Now settled in Cambridge Jennie is starting to feel at home, although this is quite different from her two former ministries – five years at Melbourne’s Mt Eliza, and the previous 11 at Mordialloc parish.

“They were very much suburban parishes … this feels quite different,” she said.

Becoming an Anglican vicar wasn’t always her plan. She had a childhood faith but drifted away during the years she trained as a professional ballet dancer.

She performed in Australia and abroad and danced in England for eight years before coming home when her father took ill. The next few years were taken up with marriage, motherhood and a stint working as a travel agent.

“Then I felt a calling to go and study theology. I really only wanted to deepen my knowledge of my faith, but then took on more leadership roles and decided I wanted to serve. Since then, I’ve held various positions in the church and taken on governance roles as well.”

The decision to come to New Zealand came on the back of holidays spent here. Both she and Sav love ‘tramping’ and now that their son and daughter have flown the coop, they felt free to explore a Kiwi adventure.

Pirate of the airwaves, operates a legal 24/7 FM radio station from his garage in the Cambridge Oaks Lifestyle Village playing music his neighbours want to hear.

The Oaks is at 88.3FM, one of the 11 frequencies made available to low-power radio stations in New Zealand.

Its reach around Cambridge is patchy because of the height of the antenna on a pole in Prouse’s back yard.

If the antenna was on Pukemako (Sanatorium Hill) the station, with its mixture of songs from the 50s, 60s, 70s and 80s, would boom around Cambridge.

Instead, it is the residents at Cambridge Oaks and others within three to five kilometres of Prouse’s Terry Came Drive

By Mary Anne Gill

One of Chris Prouse’s neighbours told him recently when her crook hip is playing up in the middle of the night, she prefers to listen to Cambridge Oaks FM. The music takes her back to memories of what life was like when it was being played on the radio and helps her insomnia. Talkback radio gets her mind going.

“It’s all about the music,” Prouse, 76, a radio veteran who worked as a technician and engineer at Radio Hauraki for 13 years including stints onboard the Tiri II in Auckland’s Hauraki Gulf.

The former “pirate of the airwaves” now

house who can tune in. He does not have a digital presence (yet), so some residents had to get their old radios out of storage or buy new ones to tune in.

There is no advertising on The Oaks and Prouse has no intention of securing any.

“I’m not racing around the neighbourhood trying to get advertising.

“It’s all about the memories the music brings forward and that’s what I like about it.”

He is happy to cover the annual $406 cost to Australasian Performing Right Association Limited (APRA) as a non-commercial radio station and to source music people request.

He takes requests and has established speciality sessions; every Friday from 7pm to 9pm ‘It’s Country’ and then every Sunday 7pm-8pm a Jazz Hour and from 8pm-9pm Big Band swing for Norm in the village.

On the hour and half hour, there is always a Kiwi song - many of them from New Zealand musicians he still counts as close friends.

In 2017 piano tuner Brian Holden, another Oaks resident and formerly part of The Roulettes band out of Rotorua, released a CD of cover songs called Plug it In, recorded in his home studio. Oaks FM is probably the only radio station that plays that.

“It’s whatever people in there want to hear.”

Aaron Anderson of AB Soundbytes in Hamilton makes syndicated programmes for the independent radio stations around New Zealand and programmes include the New Zealand Retro Weekly Top 40 Countdown, a weekly trip back in time to New Zealand in the 1970s and 1980s. Oaks FM plays it on Saturday from 4pm.

A career like no other

THURSDAY MAY 12, 2022

FAITH IN WAIPĀ

By Benjamin Wilson

Are we spoiled for choice?

Local Karen Scott is the chief executive of Enrich Group, one of the region’s largest disability providers.

A colourful career that includes netball, police, policy making, and support work has led her to become the sector leader that she is.

Although Enrich is based in Te Awamutu, Scott lives in Cambridge with her husband Roger and their son.

She joined the disability sector as a support worker when she was 17, after completing a teaching people with disabilities certificate.

However, this was initially a means to an end.

She studied early childhood education at the University of Waikato, but focused her career on being a professional athlete.

“At that time, I thought my career was netball.”

She played goal shoot in the ANZ Cup for the Waikato Wildcats in the late 90s and would later go on to play for the Counties Manukau Cometz and internationally in Cardiff.

She moved on from her athletic career when she returned from Cardiff in 2002, and began work for the Halberg Trust, which helps to enrich the lives of disabled people through sport and recreation.

“That is when I caught the bug around policy and found out that changes need to be made for people who have disabilities.”

That ‘bug’ led Scott to study policy and political science papers at the University of Waikato.

She would later work for the Ministry of Justice on the sale and supply of alcohol, and its impact on youth offending. Then the police’s Alco-link division in Wellington, to help implement processes centred around

Many are saying that our consumeristic society has contributed to making us feel very entitled.

We’ve become accustomed to possessing whatever we choose from vast selections of absolutely anything and everything our hearts may happen to desire.

Buying jeans, I entered a store, enthused about making a straightforward purchase.

Enthusiasm faded as quick as denim does. It was bewildering. With such a vast selection in-store, you’d think there would be something ideally suited to my preferences (which is what it’s all about) but it was confusing... slim fit, easy fit, baggy, extra baggy, boot leg, regular, stonewashed, shredded and ripped, zipper fly, button-fly and so on.

If you head into the grocery store, it’s the same - I counted 94 different varieties and brands of crackers... cheese, bacon or chicken flavoured, with sodium, sodium-free, fat-free, normal size and bite size. Nearby, beckoned 86 varieties of chocolate cookies, plus 109 types of milk to wash them down with. For our pets, you’re presented with an assortment of tinned food choices that defies counting… there was even nine seed-mix choices for our cockatiel.

We (and our pets) are indeed spoiled for choice.

Someone mentioned a while ago that they had counted places in Cambridge for purchasing a coffee of your choice. I don’t know what surprised me most - that my friend had the time and interest to bother counting them all, or that there were as many as he stated. He claimed in excess of over 40 cafes and other providers existed. It got me counting… and thinking.

Having our whims catered for and

the relationship between alcohol and offences.

She eventually became a project manager for ACC and did more work to prevent alcohol related harm.

Scott left the government sector because she found the lack of synergy between the different agencies frustrating.

“I wasn’t the best government bureaucrat, my values are around no duplication, and I love synergising.”

She joined Enrich Plus as an executive project manager in 2017 and became Enrich Group’s chief executive in 2019. Scott is Enrich’s (formerly Gracelands) third CEO and considers her position to be a privilege.

“Everybody needs the right to have what their good life looks like.”

“If I can make a difference by writing the right policy, or getting the right contract in, and someone achieves something little or big, then I think I’ve been really successful.”

Curtain Making on thousands of quality fabrics*

requiring our preferences to be respected, has fed the clamorous expectation that personal rights and freedom of choice will be recognised in every sphere of life. It extends to even according an individual the right to choose their gender, irrespective of whatever biological evidence might be present.

The Student Life office at Harvard University released a guide affirming that there are in fact now multiple ‘gender options’ to choose from. Also, we are informed that “gender is fluid and changing,” and gender identity can “change from day to day.” You get to choose.

Talking about individual rights and personal freedoms of choice raises questions.

Have these expansions of choice made us any more satisfied or fulfilled?

Personal preference has now become the final arbiter in determining right and wrong.

Relativism insists that ‘my truth,’ can be different to ‘your truth’ and nobody is ever wrong. We’re not to ‘judge’ the preferences of others. Agreed... yet, at the risk of being charged as narrow and intolerant, might not there be ‘absolute’ truth that is relevant and applicable to everyone?

With contemporary culture stumbling along shedding restraints and dismantling existing values, is there a sure plumbline to guide us? My view is a reliable point of reference is provided within the pages of the Bible.

‘The good-book’ remains a manual for wellbeing. Rightly interpreted, it transcends shifting sands of culture, shining light on life’s meaning, its purpose and our true identity.

Moving farewell for

NEW GUTTER CLEANING BUSINESS HITS TOWN

By Viv Posselt

GUTTER RATS IS AN EXPERT GUTTER CLEANING AND REPAIR BUSINESS SERVICING THE WAIKATO AREA. MEET OXY - YOUR LOCAL GUTTER RAT Stephen Oxenham was born and bred in Cambridge. A keen sportsman, he played rugby for the Cambridge Rugby Club and is also a high level Squash player at the Leamington club. After leaving school, Oxy went into dairy farming, owning his own farm for 20+ years. Looking for a new challenge, a couple of Squash buddies were setting up Gutter Rats and he jumped on board. “I never thought I'd be a gutter rat, but I like the idea of keeping people’s homes clean, safe and protected”, says Oxy. Why gutters need cleaning "Cleaning gutters isn't a fun job - but it's important", says Oxy. "When debris, leaves and mould build up and are not cleared on a regular basis, there’s a risk of gutters and downpipes getting blocked or pests getting in amongst it.

Declutter your gutter “What I really like about our cleaning system is that it’s unintrusive on your house. The work is done from the ground, using a machine like a vacuum cleaner, with a camera and video display. We won’t destabilise your roof,” says Oxy. “Although we can take the gutter debris away, in most cases it is organic and can be spread over your garden”.

Cambridge would have made Don Gerrand proud last Saturday.

Hundreds of people lined the streets to farewell their much-admired fire chief.

Hundreds more filled the Town Hall or watched outside, many applauding respectfully as the engine ‘Flick’, carrying Don’s casket, led a cavalcade of service vehicles polished to the level of perfection he would have expected.

What the genial fire chief probably wouldn’t have expected was the moving outpouring of love and respect. His service was likely one of the biggest held here, yet the man at its heart was a deeply humble person.

There is no doubt he was proud of the awards he amassed during his career – his 2008 Queen’s Service Medal, the Cambridge Community Board Community Award, the coveted Lions Federation Melvin Jones Fellow Award, even the Cambridge News Person of the Year award – but he often said the recognition belonged as much to the local brigade as it did to him. The two seemed indivisible for a very long time.

Each tribute heard on Saturday acknowledged Don’s 53 year-service with the brigade, 28 of them as fire chief. His family’s generosity in sharing him was acknowledged, and speakers referenced his gift of selfless service to the community, his roguish humour and high expectations, his readiness to go ‘above and beyond’ whenever the call came.

Don’s deputy, Dennis Hunt, said that call came 9316 times for Don during the 53 years and five months he served after joining the brigade in November 1968. “His final one

was on April 16.”

Dennis said it was Don’s leadership and determination that made this one of the best brigades in the country. “He always gave 110 percent. His largest project would have been the building of the new station in Cambridge… it opened in February 2003.

Don helped raise almost $100,000 towards that.”

Dennis raised a laugh with tales of the chief’s less impressive dashes to the station when the siren sounded. One had Jocelyn pushing a non-starting vehicle, one made immobile simply by Don’s failure to engage the clutch and turn the key. Another saw him overshoot a corner, hit a kerb and drive into someone’s garden, only to find that call was a false alarm.

Don was one of eight children. His brother David said the family moved around to follow their father Allan’s work as a saw doctor, but settled eventually in Cambridge where Don attended Cambridge East, Cambridge Intermediate and Cambridge High schools. They were jam-packed and happy in a three-bedroomed Robinson St house their dad built. It was there that Don came to know young Jocelyn, a daughter of brigade stalwart ‘Bush’ Hooker. His ‘persuasion’ on the young couple’s wedding day helped launch a Gerrand dynasty that continues today through their son Richard’s 33 years with the service, and grandson Kase’s four.

David said: “The family is very proud that for someone who didn’t have much for most of his young life, Don’s 24/7 commitment to serving the community was outstanding.”

Don’s daughter Steph Taylor described her father as a strong man, one of few words.

Cambridge legend

In memoriam books at the entrance to the Town Hall with a portrait of Don Gerrand.

They shared a ‘father-daughter’ penchant for rum, usually at sea and always after Jocelyn had gone to bed.

The funeral was attended by Waipā mayor Jim Mylchreest and his deputy Liz Stolwyk, councillors, Cambridge Community Board members, fire service representatives and volunteer fire crew from around the region.

Taupo MP Louise Upston spoke about the man she called her friend. “Our Cambridge community would not have been the same had it not been for Don’s devotion and unselfish volunteer work over the last five decades.”

Her voice faltered as she recalled “his beaming face” when she dressed in his jacket

and helmet. “I will always remember his graceful presence and bloody-mindedness.

I can’t think of any other family in the New Zealand fire brigade that will have four generations serve their community.”

Daryl Trim, Waikato Fire and Emergency district manager, commended Don’s pride and strong values which he said resulted in the station, the fleet, equipment and people always being immaculate. “Don was a stickler for rules … usually his rules, but always with good intent behind them.”

President of Fire Brigade Gold Star Association Warren Feek said Don’s service had been tireless, and Cambridge had lost a legend.

OPINION

Our governance role

Maybe it’s the lawyer in me, but events at Waipā District Council over the last few months have given me cause to reflect on the process of our decision-making and the importance of getting this right.

Standing Orders, Codes of Conduct and meeting etiquette are all things elected members are made aware of when first elected.

However, putting these rules into practice is often harder than you might think. And getting them wrong means things can go pear-shaped, pretty quickly.

MORTGAGE MATTERS

Why use a Mortgage Broker?

By Gavin Lynch – Yes Mortgages In the present loan market, most lenders are changing their criteria in regards to what, how much and to whom they lend. This makes it even more important to use a mortgage broker so you know you are getting the right mortgage and right lender to suit your needs.

I believe every client has a unique borrowing scenario and time needs to be taken with the client to understand and analyse this, so a correct lending plan and structure can be put in place to achieve goals.

In this column, I want to explain briefly the role of the mortgage broker and what I can offer.

The key role of the mortgage broker is to make the whole loan process easier for you, the client. This is possible because: I can look at all the lending options.

I deal with more than 25 different lenders and work to find the best lender to suit your unique situation.

• I can do all the ‘leg work’ with the lenders.

• This saves you time and avoids pitfalls in getting a loan approved.

• I can negotiate rates, fees, and legal contributions with certain lenders to obtain the best deal for the client.

• I can meet at a convenient time and place for the client.

• This can be in the home or workplace and after hours if need be.

• I can advise on the best loan structure to suit the client’s need.

And best of all using a broker is a free service in most cases. Now that has to be worth thinking about!

If your looking for a mortgage, please give me a call on 823 4531 or 021 783 266 and I can help you though the whole process. gavin@yesmortgages.co.nz

THURSDAY MAY 12, 2022

By Susan O’Regan, Waipā District Councillor

For those who follow our meetings, which are now livestreamed, you will have seen a regular Agenda Item 2: “Declarations of Conflicts of Interest”. This is an opportunity for councillors to let everyone know they are in a position which makes their involvement in decision-making around an item, improper or wrong.

There’s a variety of reasons. A councillor may declare a financial or even perceived financial gain from a decision. A councillor could be considered biased, having been shown to be closed minded about a specific issue. It is up to each councillor to declare their situation, meaning we rely wholly on the honesty and integrity of individual councillors. Our entire governance system is predicated on trust.

At our Strategic Planning and Policy meeting last Tuesday there were eight conflicts of interest declared. That is a lot.

There are risks and dangers with this number of conflicts; even more so if conflicts aren’t declared.

When you become an elected member, you make a formal declaration to “faithfully and impartially, and in accordance to the best of my skill and judgement, execute and perform, in the best interests of the Waipa District, the powers, authorities, and duties vested in... me”. Our pledge is to make great decisions for the good of the entire district, not just ‘your’ ward, ‘your’ town or on behalf of groups you have been involved with.

Councillors must park their biases outside the door for the purposes of making good decisions for everyone. That is a fundamental requirement.

At that meeting, I addressed a couple of conflicts firmly.

That was my job, as chair of that meeting. I did so because it is not possible to speak to a matter as a councillor neutrally and impartially and with ‘an open mind’, while at the same time holding and sharing a fixed position outside the Chamber. This

is the very textbook definition of a “conflict of interest”.

It is a complex issue. All councillors will, at times, have extra information they think could be helpful in the decision-making process. Given so many councillors are elected because they are active in their respective communities, this is not surprising.

But all councillors must leave any pre-formed positions at the door in order to make good decisions on behalf of the entire district. If you are a councillor, you must be impartial in your decision-making and you must also be seen to be impartial.

This impartiality includes coming to the table with an open mind, free from bias.

If you cannot do that, you have a Conflict of Interest. And you must declare it and if necessary, abstain from voting on that issue. If not, our decisions can be successfully overturned if challenged and the integrity of our organisation can be called into question.

With local elections coming up this year, it’s a good time to remember what the role of governance is. As a councillor, it can be tempting to delve into operational matters. But that’s not our job. Our role as governors is to set the strategic direction and vision for the district, ensure there is sufficient funding available and hold the chief executive to account in terms of delivering those plans. We should be “nose in” not “hands in”.

Councillors have a key role in protecting the integrity of our institution by ensuring there is honesty, openness and transparency in the way we operate. Our residents and ratepayers must have decisions made on their behalf by people who are free of bias or favour. When they cannot be, or there is a perception they cannot be, they must willing to declare it.

NO PLANET B

The nature of the beast

By Peter Matthews

In choosing to write about environmental issues, I never did intend to go into facts and figures in any great depth or to explore particular occurrences in detail. There are any number of sources of information to back up the generally accepted view that humans are causing global warming, and that the consequences of this are going to be predictably dire.

As is usually the case with humans, some are taking it seriously and doing what they can about it, others believe it and do nothing.

Some governments do enough to be seen to be doing enough, others don’t see the need. A minority of people seek actively to discredit the whole idea. There seems to be a sector of the community who think it is a load of rubbish. Well, we all know it’s rubbish, there’s just a difference of opinion on whether rubbish is one of the causes, or a description of, the concept.

Despite many good intentions and a vast array of good science the human race as a whole doesn’t seem to be making very good progress with this.

It bears repetition, which is lucky because I’ve said it before, that people simply aren’t that bothered because it doesn’t affect them - yet. It’s not like we’re living in the Maldives - there’s a community looking down the barrel of the problem. Or Jakarta - which is the fastest sinking city in the world. It has been predicted that a third of the city will be submerged by 2050. To be fair that’s not all due to global warming; it’s happening because of excessive extraction of groundwater.

It’s all part of the same story though.

The rapidly growing human population is putting pressure on the environment. This is

a species which is about to become a victim of its own success. We have dominated the ecosystem of the planet absolutely, ever since we started walking upright.

I’m pretty sure no other species which has enjoyed time at the top on Planet Earth has ever worried about their environmental footprint. It’s a philosophical point I know; no other species has (that we know of) ever had the mental capacity to consider their impact on their surroundings.

But if you look at a human as a conglomeration of cells and genes which has evolved to survive long enough to reproduce successfully, where between the individual spirals of DNA and the brain are the decisions made? Are we self-delusional when we imagine ourselves to be in control of our own destiny?

We eat too much because our bodies are hard-wired to accumulate fat reserves against leaner times to come. Our highly evolved brains have allowed us to take precautions against leaner times by farming but not yet to counter the desire to eat when we don’t need it.

In terms of the cycles of evolution and extinction, anONLY outsider wouldPLANET be surprised to see humans getting together to try and preserve the planet we live on. It’s just not in our nature.

ANNUAL PJ DONATION DRIVE CAN YOU HELP US MAKE A DIFFERENCE? For the last two years, we have led a winter pyjama donation drive to support the incredible work Kids in Need Waikato does for our community's most vulnerable children.

As a local charity, the Kids in Need Waikato team work tirelessly to create care packs of necessary and sentimental items for children who are removed from their homes and placed into the care they need – often with only the clothes on their backs.

A brand new pair of warm winter pyjamas for a child during a difficult transition in their life is a small but powerful way to provide them with the care they deserve.

Join us once again in donating winter pyjamas until 20th June to make a positive difference in the lives of these children.

Our office will be the collection point for our community’s generous donations and like previous years, we are accepting brand new pyjamas in all sizes, from infants to teens! Plus:

FOR EVERY SECOND PAIR RECEIVED, CAMBRIDGE REAL ESTATE WILL DONATE ANOTHER PAIR! Last year the community and Cambridge Real Estate, with the immense support from businesses like yours, collected and donated an incredible 548 pairs to this vital organisation. We look forward to another fantastic campaign this year!

piqued her curiosity and she completed her first set of free lessons about four years ago.

Work intervened so she didn’t follow through, but she went back for more lessons last year and now plays regularly.

She even played online with her Ashburton-based parents during lockdown.

“It’s completely different from everything else I do,” she said. “I work as a physio, I play sport and go to gym.

This is so different; it uses the mind in a totally different way.”

Mikayla plays socially, opting to leave the competitive play for those preferring the cut and thrust.

She said learners here are lucky with the club lessons on offer. “They take it nice and slowly and are very supportive.”

Another local player, Melanie Trevethick, learned in 1990 and considers it “the most brilliant game”.

“Every hand is like opening a Christmas present … you never know what you’re going to get. It’s very easy to get addicted.”

Another seasoned player, Michael Neels, said he learned the game at his mother’s knee. He comes to the club several times week, as well as playing online and in Hamilton. “I get a lot out of it. It’s a huge challenge … there are times I’m happy with my play, other times not so much,” he laughed. “I’ll never stop playing.”

Martin Steiner has been playing for about 45 years; he and his wife Verena are regulars at the Cambridge club.

“I always liked playing cards,” said Martin. “My wife and I were introduced to the game in the early 1970s … she wanted to learn bridge. We got hooked quite quickly. It keeps you in shape mentally, that’s for sure.”

After a Covid-induced hiatus, the Cambridge Bridge Club is back in action and has a series of 10 free beginner bridge lessons starting next Tuesday.

Club secretary Ailsa Henderson said it marks a welcome return to prepandemic days when learner lessons were held as part of the club’s annual activities.

The series invites newcomers to attend lessons with teacher Kim Grounds on Tuesdays from 7pm to 9pm at the club premises at 14 Fort St. All ages are welcome. The club currently has several learners who, together with more established players, enjoy the social contact and mental stimulation bridge is known for.

The game is widely recognised as giving the brain a good workout and boosting the immune system, and in some countries, including Poland and China, is established as part of the school curriculum. In the United Kingdom, a simplified form of bridge known as mini-bridge is part of school life.

Cambridge club’s youngest member is 26-year-old Mikayla Lewis, who was drawn to the game through her mother and stepfather.

Deputy head’s life cycle

By Matteo Di Maio

Cambridge High School’s deputy principal John McDonnell will don his international cycling commissaire alter-ego yet again this July as he heads to Birmingham to officiate in the 2022 Commonwealth Games.

The Games, which open on July 28, will be the deputy principal’s seventh as a commissaire – the cycling world’s word for “referee”.

This year, he’ll be officiating across all of the track, road and mountain biking disciplines.

For McDonnell, who has an NZ Order of Merit and approximately 170 international events as both a commissaire and a doping inspector under his belt, the globe-trotting double-life comes naturally.

“You’d get the call, Friday night, to fly to the race in Japan,” he recalled. “You’d fly over, get the samples, take them to the lab in Tokyo, and then you’re back on the plane to New Zealand, and back at work on Monday.”

It all started back in 1988, when McDonnell – who had enjoyed cycling as well as rugby at high school – started ‘commissairing’ in local and national events in New Zealand.

His big break came, almost fatefully, in 1990.

Back in the 80s, international cycling was a very French affair; the official language was French, and most commissaires officiated in the language. In 1990, the international cycling body decided they needed more English speaking officials, and announced that they would run an English speaking course in Cairo that year.

“When Cycling New Zealand put the application out, they had seven applicants to go, and they only had one spot,” McDonnell recalled.

The application process was ranked, and McDonnell, being only a young commissaire, was number seven on the list.

“The others all had heaps of years of experience,” McDonnell said.

And then, of course, the Gulf War broke out. A week before the course in Cairo, the other six applicants had pulled the pin.

“NZ cycling still had the one spot, and they said ‘Do you want to go?’ And I took the opportunity and here I am,” McDonnell explained.

Nowadays, there are two official languages of cycling: English and French. More often than not, however, McDonnell will be speaking a different kind of international language when he’s commissaring.

“The international language I have is that I have a batton – like a table tennis bat, with a big hole in the middle, red on one side and green on the other. When there are cars coming up – I hold it up and the peloton stops, and off you go,” he recalled with a chuckle.

In his 30-odd years of ‘commissairing’, McDonnell has noted two big changes: in the professionality of the athletes, and in the technology supporting them. “[Nowadays] they have their own nutritionists, they have their own psychologists. Thirty one years ago when I first started, you turned up and you had your manager, and he did his best to get you a few bananas from the local corner store… whereas today all these people come in and they set up, in the big events you wouldn’t believe it it’s like a weather station.”

Being a commissaire is all about ensuring a fair playing field, and for McDonnell, his skill at that comes from his deep respect for the effort athletes pour into their sport.

The 2004 Olympics in Athens is a great example.

McDonnell was the track starter, which, given the events

were live with a 20-second window, meant keeping to a very rigid time schedule.

“The way it works is that they do a qualification, pick the top 26 or 28, and they repeat until they get to the top two,” McDonnell explained.

“And so the two top riders had gone through the process over two days.

And their final is best of three.

It was the final race of the finals.

“I walk up to talk to the two finalists,” McDonnell said. “And the Cambridge High’s number guy standing on the side of the track two leads a “double life”. who was working for the producer who’s doing the live feed, he’s stressing and going ‘hurry up’, ‘hurry up.’ And I wouldn’t. I had the two riders up there, I was taking it slowly and saying to both ‘You’re ready?’. Only once I heard the ‘yep’ did I blow the whistle and off they went.”

“At the debrief, the producer comes down and he went ape, absolutely ape, at me, in front of everyone, saying ‘We lost 20 seconds. Not good! Not good!’”

“And I said: I know you did. But those two riders prepared for four years to get to a third ride-off which is going to be decided in 10 seconds – and you’re telling me I couldn’t afford them the 10 seconds?’”

The producer was quick to apologise.

With the International ‘commisairing’ age limit capped at 70, this will likely be McDonnell’s last games.

He’s still planning on doing national events though – and, of course, you’re bound to see him out cycling.

Honours shared in bowls

Vagg Cup runners up from Cambridge Bowling Club – from left, Jim Watkinson, John Payne, Brian Walton, Roy Shepherd, Scotty Buchanan and Graeme Henshaw

The honours were shared at the Waipā Lawn Bowls Tournament for 2022.

Te Awamutu claimed the Vagg Cup, heading off Cambridge, Cambridge Central took the Myers Cup from Te Awamutu and the Hastie Cup went to Kihikihi, who headed off Cambridge Central A. With entrants from Cambridge, Central Cambridge, Kihikihi, Ōtorohanga, Pirongia, Raglan, Te Kuiti and Te Awamutu, teams competed in different disciplines over four rounds.

The tournament is split up into three divisions: Vagg Cup for men, Myers Cup for Juniors (Under 5 years playing bowls) and

the Hastie Cup for women.

Cambridge Bowling Club on Thornton Road hosted the men, Te Awamutu the juniors and Ōtorohanga, the women’s division.

There has been a Waipa division of Bowls Waikato since 1994, before which there was a Central Zone competition. At that time the competition comprised only the men’s and junior division. However, in 2002 the women requested a division of their own and the Hastie Trophy became a much sought-after prize.

The lovely Autumn weather held out and a full day’s bowling was enjoyed.

Waipā District Council has reviewed, and wishes to replace, its existing Water Supply Bylaw 2013. From 13 May 2022, Council will consult on this replacement Water Supply Bylaw in accordance with the special consultative procedure set out in Section 86 of the Local Government Act 2002.

The purpose of this Bylaw is to: • protect, promote and maintain public health and safety; • manage the land, structures, or infrastructure associated with the water supply system; • protect from damage, misuse, or loss, and to prevent the unauthorised use of, the land, structures, or infrastructure associated with the water supply system.

Summary of proposed changes • update the bylaw to manage and protect the water supply system more effectively; • update to reflect district-wide changes to the water supply system and national changes to legislation that have occurred since 2013; • simplify and streamline the bylaw to improve clarity and readability; and • futureproof the bylaw for anticipated changes in both the regulatory environment and in the growth of the Waipā District.

The Statement of Proposal, draft Water Supply Bylaw and submission forms are available: • Online at the Council’s website: www.waipadc.govt.nz/ haveyoursay • At Council offices and libraries in Te Awamutu and Cambridge • By phoning 0800 WAIPA DC (924 723) and requesting a copy.

Anyone may make a submission on the content of the draft Bylaw. Submissions must be received by 5.00pm on 13 June 2022. Submissions can be forwarded to Waipā District Council, Attn: Draft Water Supply Bylaw, 101 Bank Street (Private Bag 2402), Te Awamutu 3840, faxed to 07 872 0033 or emailed to submissions@waipadc.govt.nz (subject: Draft Water Supply Bylaw).
