Our D-graded lake

By Mary Anne Gill

Lake Te Koo Utu is in such a bad state it will take decades to recover despite the recent installation of 12 rain gardens around the lake.

The forecast comes from Waikato Regional Council lakes’ scientist Mat Allan, who also rejects a plan which advocates draining and replacing water in the lake, which

he says could make the quality even worse.

Purging the lake of ducks, removing deciduous trees and installing more rain gardens are all better options, he says.

While the lake does not yet have a national ecological grade, as required by the National Policy Statement for Freshwater Management, Allan says he is

“moderately confident” it is a D. “That’s the worst grade we can apply,” said Allan.

Allan described the rain gardens – made up of native shrubs perennials and flowers which hold and soak in water runoff from the roads around the lake - as a great idea because of their filtration qualities.

Waipā District Council’s

statutory role is to control the effects of land use on lakes and rivers, hence its role in establishing the rain gardens and installing more in future years.

The regional council’s job is to monitor water quality and work closely with the district council to find solutions.

It has monitored the lake regularly since 2019 and two

environmental scientists - Nicole Squires and Briar Mills, both Waikato University graduates were out early on Thursday last week to take the latest tests at the lake’s deepest point.

Allan said the results from those tests showed no improvement in the latest data.

Letters…

Why is it..?

Driving around Te Awamutu, the number of streets I see badly in need of repair… why is this? Is it because our rates are being spent on the Bunnings building and the $99,000 land rent, just for a museum? Is it for the land at Karāpiro…$5 million, just for a cycle trail?

Is it for the $9 million for changes to Memorial Park that the council has no right doing? Is it to finance the 13 man Māori council who are unelected and have a big say in what happens in Waipā… just a few of the places our council thinks the rates money is better spent? We need a total change of councillors to retard this attitude of wants over needs.

Falling on deaf ears

Out of interest I assume you are following what is going on with this three waters process, and other government agendas.

And the word changing, the obstructions and outright gagging of certain groups and media control.

It is very worrying in a “democratic” society. No one denies that there are infrastructure issues in this country that need addressing, and water is one of them.

But the reasons for it, the total disregard for submissions in opposition by the public and councils is arrogance and ignorance at its best.

We should all be highly concerned at this government style. We live in NZ, not China.

Glen McClunie Cambridge

Our D-graded lake “But lakes can take up to 20 years to respond to remedial action in the catchment due to internal loading from nutrients stored in sediment.”

Allan says another action the district council could take to clean up the lake could be to eliminate ducks because their droppings contribute to poor water quality.

Because fallen leaves also impact on the lake’s water quality, Waipā’s other agreed actions, included in a 10-year $5.856m concept plan funded by asset sales, includes replacing deciduous trees with evergreen natives through natural attrition.

The News asked Allan to peer review a plan promoted by a recently formed Lake Te Koo Utu Restoration group.

Its plan is to drain the lake, remove all toxic material from the lakebed, dry it out, apply a layer of base course metal with a finer metal on top and then refill it with water from the Maungatautari spring.

“While flow diversion is a legitimate restoration method, there would need to be a feasibility study

which would consider the nutrient concentrations of the replacement water and effects on the lake, in addition to a wider issue about technical feasibility of piping water,” he said.

“Draining the lake would need to be considered in terms of damage to lake ecology, lake plants and fish.

Adding substrate to the lake could exacerbate the poor condition of the lake by making the depth shallower, the current shallow depth being one of the factors responsible for poor water quality due to lack of dilution.”

The 5.3ha lake was formed during one of the later Taupō volcanic eruptions more than 1800 years ago. It is 2.3m at its deepest point and was treasured by Māori in preEuropean days for its eels, koura and fresh water.

Europeans settled in Cambridge in 1864 and 16 years later established the Lake Domain Park.

In 1882 the lake was described as “a beautiful sheet of pure spring water” but its water quality deteriorated over the next century once the town’s sewage and road run off started draining into it.

When this photograph was taken by Edward John Wilkinson in 1916, exotic trees were already a dominant part of the domain.

On the beat with Senior Constable DEB THURGOOD More advice on CCTV I hope the first week of the school term has gone smoothly and that everyone survived the wild wet weather we have had. I’d like to start by praising the Cambridge High School staff, students and community for their quick and calm response to an incident on Tuesday.

All such situations must be treated with the highest level of precaution until determined otherwise. A good outcome and good work all round.

Last week I touched on CCTV in businesses.

Following a query I have received since, I wish to look at that a bit more today. When you install CCTV, it is important to consider your reasons for doing so to ensure it is most effective.

Most businesses use it primarily for loss detection and as a deterrent against shop theft.

CCTV camera placement needs to provide good coverage of the retail space and ideally at least one camera should be at lower level (that is shoulder height) to capture faces, even if people are wearing a baseball cap or similar. As

mentioned last week, it is recommended that one be located covering the store road front and carparking area also. Audio should only be used where a visual only view will not meet your needs.

Under the NZ Privacy Act, you must erect signs at locations before a person enters the CCTV covered area (for example the shop entry point) advising them that CCTV cameras are in operation.

Ensure staff members are trained in use of the CCTV system and where possible enable remote access from a mobile device. In the event of an afterhours burglary or alarm being activated, being able to view and provide police with live updates of the offenders’ actions is fantastic.

Ensure staff can review and save evidential footage and download it. This all speeds up any Police investigation and prevents loss of vital evidence.

Once you have footage of a thief, what do you do? The immediate urge may be to show

and shame. Publishing photos publicly of alleged offenders raises a number of issues. First is the issue of identification, another is whether or not the person being named and shamed made a genuine error - and thirdly, whether that person has issues which could explain their behaviour.

A better view

Waipā District Council’s on-line presence has been given a quality lift. The council has responded to criticism that viewers could not see everyone involved in meetings which are broadcast online - and saved itself money on new cameras - by moving the tables closer to the middle of the room.

Four standing

Marcus Gower (Te Awamutu-Kihikihi), Bill Harris (Māori ward), Jill Taylor (Te Awamutu Community Board) and Roger Gordon (Cambridge) are the verified nominations declared by the electoral officer standing in the Waipā local body elections.

Waikato District Council has nine nominations including Hukanui-Waerenga ward councillor Chris Woolerton in the new TamahereWoodlands ward. Fred Lichtwark, Waikato ward and Stu Kneebone, WaipāKing Country, are two of six nominations received for the regional council.

Extra rep

Waipā will have another representative on the region’s Future Proof Implementation committee.

Strategic Planning and Policy committee chair Susan O’Regan will become an alternate for mayor Jim Mylchreest and deputy mayor Liz Stolwyk on the committee. She will join representatives from Hamilton City, Waikato, Waipā, Matamata-Piako and Waikato Regional councils for the last meeting of the current term.

Schools threatened

A bomb threat to Cambridge High School and five other North Island schools resulted in lockdowns and evacuations on Tuesday. The threats were made via phone and police are currently investigating their origin. The other schools targeted were Thames High School, Firth High School, Lytton High School, Matamata College and Matamata Intermediate.

Sweet and sour funding

By Mary Anne Gill

Funding for Te Ara Wai, Waipā’s new $20.48 museum in Te Awamutu, looks set to come from an unlikely source, a Three Waters reform sweetener from the government.

The museum is at the top of seven projects the council will consider submitting to the Department of Internal Affairs (DIA) for Waipā’s part of a $2 billion Better off Funding package.

The money has been pre-allocated to councils in recognition of the transfer of responsibility for fresh, waste and storm water to four public water entities.

But if not for mayor Jim Mylchreest’ s casting vote, preparing a draft funding proposal to be considered at the council’s Strategic Planning and Policy committee meeting in September, might not have even happened.

Waipā has two bites at the cherry $5.24 million – which it must submit a formal funding proposal for by September 30 and a further $15.73 million next year. All of it must be spent by June 30, 2027.

The Better Off Funding application must demonstrate genuine engagement with iwi/Māori to be successful.

It was that extra requirement which resulted in councillors Roger Gordon, Clare St Pierre, Grahame Webber, Bruce Thomas and Philip Coles voting against engaging with mana whenua and iwi.

They insisted the engagement about whether to proceed with applying for the money should be with the whole community.

Mylchreest’ s casting vote got the mana whenua and iwi consultation over the line but, bizarrely, a motion was later passed unanimously supporting community engagement over whether council should take advantage of Better Off funding.

Earlier, Service Delivery group manager Dawn Inglis told the council the criteria for an application was very tight.

Staff chose the seven projects because they were already in the council’s Long Term Plan which involved community consultation.

“While it’s not a fixed short list, it fits the criteria of the DIA,” she said.

Chief executive Garry Dyet said receiving the first chunk of funding was not dependent on whether the Three Waters reforms went ahead and there was a big possibility the money would disappear after September 30.

If Waipā did not apply it could miss out, he said.

Several councillors were concerned the money would have to be paid back if Waipā continued its opposition to Three Waters.

Cr Susan O’Regan said a “muzzle” clause in the funding agreement needed to go before she committed to it.

“For me that’s a bottom line,” she said.

Mylchreest, an ardent opponent to

Three Waters reform cash could pay for a Cambridge Library feasibility study.

Three Waters, said he was conflicted by the fund.

“The politest way I can put it is it’s a sweetener.

“That $2 billion would go a long way to solving the water problems around the country.”

The council has already paid $2.05 million for the old Bunnings building in Arawata Street which will house Te Ara Wai and showcase Waipā and New Zealand history from the perspective of both Māori and European settlers, with a focus on the New Zealand Land Wars.

The museum was not just a local or regional museum, Dyet told The News in an earlier interview.

“It’s a national story that needs to be told.”

In its Long Term Plan, adopted last year, council set aside another $7.2 million for Te Ara Wai and lease costs of $123,500 a year.

The other projects suggested for Better Off Fund grants with the total cost in brackets are: • Urban Mobility Network Programme Implementation ($9.237 million) • Resource Recovery Centre – Cambridge ($195,181) • Cycling - Te Awamutu/Ngaroto/ Pirongia Connection ($10.396 million) • Ngā Roto Management Plan (Heritage Restoration) ($470,000) • Cambridge Library Feasibility Study ($250,000) • Street Lighting Improvements – Urban areas ($1.497m)

Silks and shoes to auction…

Bonecrusher’s shoes and James McDonald’s silks.

A strong Australian influence inspired in Waipa will be evident when fundraising starts at the National Breeding Awards at Karapiro on Saturday.

The Waikato Branch of the New Zealand Thoroughbred Breeders’ Association will stage an auction at the AGrowQuip sponsored event to raise funds for mental health initiatives the association is introducing.

“Mental health and wellbeing in our industry is something we think needs to be addressed,” Waikato Branch President Dave Duley said. “Not only are we raising money for that, but also raising awareness that our industry has issues surrounding mental health that we need to work on.

“There are so many people in our industry that have come onboard with this initiative, from James McDonald donating a set of silks to Shaune Ritchie donating Bonecrusher’s shoes.”

Both call Cambridge home.

McDonald won the Melbourne Cup on Verry Elleegant last year – had donated a set of signed silks, while the shoes come from one of New Zealand’s greatest gallopers. Bonecrusher – ‘The People’s Champion’ won a host of top races on

both sides of the Tasman in the 1980s – and Shaune Ritchie, now a Cambridge trainer, was his strapper.

Duley said he had been overwhelmed with the support shown by the industry towards this initiative. There will be five major items up for live auction on the night, while a further 28 items will be on gavelhouse.com from Tuesday.

The night will celebrate the success of New Zealand breeders over the past season.

“It will be the first time that we will have a live National Breeders Awards. It was previously a Waikato awards night hosted by the Waikato branch (of the breeders association),” he said.

“It is phenomenal that we have bred 28 Group One winners from our little country (this season), it is a massive achievement. The All Blacks aren’t going that great, but our horses are.”

The Breeding Awards will be held at the Don Rowlands Centre, Lake Karapiro Domain.

Boards, council get message

By Mary Anne Gill

Waipā councillors and community board members have been told to sort their relationships out so residents can have more say in what’s going on in their communities.

The harsh recommendation comes from an external reviewer called in to sort out the problems between the council, community boards and council staff.

Steven Finlay, who works for Local Government New Zealand’s consultancy arm Equip, ran several behind closed doors workshops to thrash out the issues which resulted in a breakdown of the relationship between community boards and the council.

It came to a head last year when The News revealed the council planned to do away with Cambridge and Te Awamutu community boards and replace them with committees.

The backlash was immediate, and the resulting debate ended when the council voted to continue with community boards but with the proviso their roles and functions be reviewed before the next election.

Finlay, who attended this week’s council meeting, interviewed and held workshops with councillors and community board members.

“All interviewees and participants accepted and agreed that there is significant opportunity to improve the state - or functioning - of community boards and their relevance - or strategic value - to

Party

council and communities,” he said.

“Arguably, 70 per cent of their focus should be on community facing needs and opportunities, and the remaining 30 per cent on developing the skills for mature professional engagement,” said Finlay.

“For the relevance of community boards to increase, council must prepare for their input to relevant decisions. The feedback indicates this shift will increase the view among board elected members that their views are being taken seriously and thus increase their motivation to improve their own board functioning and effectiveness.”

The changes would result in community boards being involved at the beginning of debates and not the end. Board members must be prepared to add strategic value and innovate without duplicating what council already does.

They must also increase their governance maturity to support good decision making, he said.

Communities would feel represented if they could participate in democracy by bringing their voices into the process.

Other councils around the country had also changed their approach to community boards. Whanganui `has given speaking rights at council meetings to board members.

The council must make space for boards’ input, provide additional support from staff and resource them for success, said Finlay.

Cambridge Community Board

Change ahead: Consultant Steven Finlay with Waipā governance manager Jo Gread at this week’s council meeting.

chair Sue Milner told councillors her board prided itself on being part of the community already.

“It’s a continual process.”

Members had a “fair idea” of what was happening in Cambridge.

Te Awamutu board chair Ange Holt said it was important for her board to reflect, redesign and have another “crack at this” and make a better job.

“We can be the eyes and ears in our community,” and work at grassroots level, she said.

Cambridge councillor Mike Pettit, who cut his local government political teeth in the community board, said he liked what he saw in the review.

It showed more strategic focus and accountability.

People who stood at the next

elections for a community board were vying for an exciting position, he said.

Speaking after the meeting, deputy chief executive Ken Morris said council staff had been directed to more actively support boards to lift their performance.

“This is about us giving boards the tools and training they need, as well as providing clearer and more community-focused delegations.”

Chief executive Garry Dyet said in his pre-election report that community boards would focus heavily on key issues in their own communities after the local body election.

“They will be provided with additional support from council staff and are likely to work more closely with council overall.”

Waipā at LGNZ Support for Three Waters conference

By Mary Anne Gill

By Mary Anne Gill

Four Waipā district elected representatives and two staff members attended last week’s Local Government New Zealand (LGNZ) conference in Palmerston North costing ratepayers more than $12,000.

The conference finished on July 22, only 77 days before election day on October 8.

The News asked mayor Jim Mylchreest if the expenditure was a good use of ratepayers’ money given the four elected representatives might not get re-elected.

More attended than normal because the conference was in the North Island and because of the “unprecedented reform agenda we are dealing with,” he said.

“The annual conference is an important meeting. Councillors must be well informed on the many changes occurring in local government at the moment so council can continue to act in the best interests of the community.”

Mylchreest, who is a member of LGNZ’s national council, was at the conference with councillors Philip Coles, Lou Brown and Clare St Pierre.

Chief executive Garry Dyet and Service Delivery group manager Dawn Inglis also attended.

The four elected representatives gave brief updates at this week’s council meeting.

St Pierre said the conference had a big focus on the future and looked at how Māori might be more involved in decision making.

Brown said he was disappointed there were no opportunities for delegates from the floor to ask questions of prime minister Jacinda Ardern and Local Government minister Nanaia Mahuta.

Coles said it was good to be able to cement relationships with other mayors and councillors. He said he took the opportunity to meet with Waka Kotahi relationship manager David Speirs about an “idea” Coles had around roading issues at Karāpiro.

Mylchreest said the conference was a “watershed” for local government with the proposed changes in the wind and the legislative changes coming “down the path.”

Registration and booking fees for the conference cost the council $7939.13 and accommodation costs were $4113.04.

Yet to come in are meal costs during the conference which a spokesperson said, “should not be significant.”

A ‘lone’ Waipā councillor voice in favour of Three Waters reform has criticised government’s public relations in selling the radical water changes.

Cr Andrew Brown, who chairs the Finance and Corporate committee, said he wanted to see water services delivered at the most efficient and cost effective manner.

He suggested Communities For Local Democracy, an advocacy group made up of 31 councils including Waipā, had missed the point in their opposition.

“They don’t believe it will be more efficient, but I think they’re wrong.”

Brown said even he doubted the Three Waters plan and was “almost convinced” to oppose it when the government responded to criticism with a series of “ridiculous ads on TV.” Speaking to councillors at the Waipā District Council meeting on Tuesday during discussion of the council’s submission on the Water Services Entities Bill, Brown said he disagreed with the council’s view that the bill would lead to poorer outcomes for the

community.

“I don’t believe that to be the case. What I don’t get is how we can expect to operate our three waters more effectively than a substantial corporation that is well governed and well run.

“And the one thing I will say about local government is we have got pretty good at creating entities that are well governed and well run and provide really good outcomes for our communities,” said Brown.

He and Cr Marcus Gower were the only councillors to vote against the council submission which mayor Jim Mylchreest will present to Parliament’s Finance and Expenditure committee.

The bill would see responsibility for three waters – fresh, storm and waste – taken from local authorities and handed over to four publicly owned organisations governed by independent boards. It is due for its final reading in November.

Advertisements for the four chief executives appeared in weekend newspapers across New Zealand.

In its submission, Waipā has asked for the bill to be withdrawn and for government to work

alongside local government to design a “more effective model, with better outcomes for the whole community.”

Brown has long argued in favour of Three Waters and while he is clearly at odds with his fellow councillors, except for Gower, there was a begrudging respect for what he said.

“Differing points of view, it’s great we can have that,” said Mylchreest.

“I absolutely support your right to have that perspective. My feelings haven’t changed at all.

“To say I totally disagree would be an understatement for the vast majority of it. I don’t see it is a proven model that will deliver what it claims.”

Brown said local government had created well governed entities that provided good outcomes for communities.

He gave the example of the Local Government Funding Agency which provides diversified financing sources and saved councils “literally tens of millions of dollars.”

Businesses co-owned by Waipā also performed well, he said.

That included Waikato Regional Airport, which Brown described as a “well

“I’m not saying we haven’t done well with our water services to this point.

We can pat ourselves on the back. When you look around this table, who genuinely has got the skill set to run a water business competently? I would say none of us,” said Brown.

The government’s model would see four skill-based boards each with six iwi reps and six from local authorities who would appoint CEOs and management teams would result in a “really effective” waters business.

“We can do that, we can create that organisation,” said Brown.

ALL W E LCOM E People at heart Te iwi Ngakaunui

After the ritual journalistic hanging of the All Black coach last week it was refreshing to see the New Zealand Rugby Union stand behind their man and keep faith with their earlier appointment of his services through to, and during, next year’s Rugby World Cup. Whether he was guilty or not - or materially contributed to the recent losses against the well-drilled and highly disciplined Irish side - is not the point. What is moot is that he had a legal employment understanding with his masters and they kept their side of the bargain.

Utilising the phrase ‘one swallow does not make a summer’ is very apt in this case.

The New Zealand (and predominantly male psyche) demands a conquest at every opportunity. A one-sided game (of any sport) is both boring to watch and no doubt soul-destroying to play. The baying for blood among my fellow residents at our retirement village was possibly typical of what was being stated in bars, offices and other collective gathering points.

And who is to say that rugby alone is our (only) National sport – the capital letter is deliberate? Take a local look around Cambridge and witness the dedication of professional cyclists, rowers, triathlon participants, swimmers, kayakers to name a few. And the participants in the equestrian industry where a 4am start most days of the week is the very least that is expected of them.

Is their effort any less than the beefy men in black? Men who are paid many times more than their counterparts in other sports? I imagine that Dame Valerie Adams and other shining examples of physical prowess and home comfort denials must very much envy a sport where somewhat ridiculous salaries and sponsorship opportunities abound.

Witness the lady rugby players - who are just as determined - having to fight for some degree of financial parity.

High Performance New Zealand has a purse that has a defined limit.

Choosing Olympians and Commonwealth Games hopefuls must be an arduous task as there will always be someone who is disappointed and feels a degree of favouritism being taken into the decision-making mix.

And, without doubt, the roles of coaches generally must be thankless specially where they are applying pressure on individuals and teams to perform to a higher standard.

Sadly, as a remote far-off island, we are devoid of the continual high standard competition in nearby countries. The Europeans are spoilt for choice with those in close geographical proximity to measure up against international competitors. All this to enable them to hone their skills to a finer degree. But here leaping on an expensive plane, staying in another far-off country with high-cost hotels and food in order to ensure that what has been happening at home is at the required level, is a tall ask. For financiers, coaches, athletes – and their left-behind families. In this Town of Trees and Champions we are blessed with living amongst some fine -mainly young - people who are parking their long-term career opportunities in the interest of the quest for sporting success.

They deserve our praise we are lucky to have them around us. They often go without the right food, housing, recreational breaks and a proper and balanced social life. All in the quest for gold. True champions all. We salute your endeavours.

Dealing with cause and effect…

WORLD BREASTFEEDING WEEK!

By Murray Smith, Senior Leader, Bridges Church

All breast and mixed-feeding mothers & children, please join Cambridge La Leche League for a free hot drink and chat at Clementine Cafe

10am Monday 1 August For event details see Facebook Breastfeeding Support - Cambridge NZ La Leche League

I listened to an aged medical orderly describing an experience he’d had during World War Two in the Egyptian desert.

An injured soldier had been brought into the make-shift hospital for treatment. This serviceman had suffered combat wounds that needed dressing - but one in particular, a nasty shoulder injury, hinted at needing careful attention.

The orderly had been gently disinfecting and sanitising the site of this wound with bandages at hand, ready to dress it in such way that would promote effective healing.

A doctor, passing by this orderly and the wounded soldier, stopped - his attention drawn to the injury undergoing treatment. Tell-tale signs alerted the doctor to the fact that more thorough attention was warranted.

Asking for forceps, he carefully inserted them into the wound, gently probing the site. After a few moments the give-away sound of metal to metal ‘clunking’ was heard. It gave evidence to the fact that a nasty piece of shrapnel was still embedded beyond the

superficial presenting gash, much deeper in the soldier’s shoulder wound.

Using forceps to remove the shrapnel saved the soldier’s life. The doctor explained to the orderly that no matter how effective any application of dressings was, dressing such a wound while shrapnel was still embedded would have imperilled the soldier’s life.

To me, this account highlighted important ‘life’ lessons. Most of us have a tendency to assess and attend to personal issues without giving sufficient attention to what is really going on in our ‘inner world’.

By ‘personal issues’, I mean deep issues of the soul - things seated in our emotional core. You could write lists of things which people attribute to just being the way they are, or ‘personality quirks’, when really they’re directly attributable to a deeper root cause.

Behind every ‘effect’ there is ‘cause’… reasons for why we are the way we are. Those reasons are often sourced in historical events that activated an emotional response which we live with.

An adult’s fear of dogs might stem from a bad childhood experience, for example.

Or, any other kind of trauma can imbed a toxic emotional impact that may appear dormant, but the infection is latent, awaiting triggering moments.

Fears, insecurities, habitual tendencies, addictions, anger, lack of self-control, feelings of shame or inadequacy, drive or perfectionism are just a few traits we might need to recognise personally.

Just like the shrapnel which would slowly contaminate from within, ‘bandaiding’ our problems with distractions will neither eradicate, nor manage the difficulty.

The answer lies in dealing with the cause rather than trying to manage the effect. You can spend a lifetime brushing off cobwebs, but they will continue to show up until the spider is removed.

Identifying our deeper problem is fundamental for everyone. On the basis of personal experience, my conviction is that the pathway to freedom and wholeness resides in seeking help from the One of whom it is written in Psalm 147:3 – “He heals the brokenhearted, binding up their wounds”.

International banker talks

By Viv Posselt

Cambridge News columnist Peter Nicholl spoke of the complexities of knitting together a fractured Eastern European banking system when he became Cambridge U3A’s opening speaker.

The mid-July gathering was the first held at the group’s new venue, Te Awa Lifecare.

Earlier planning meetings were held at the Cambridge Health & Community Centre, but a rapid growth in membership in its initial two months saw organiser Carey Church move swiftly to secure a larger venue.

The group is the first U3A in Cambridge and already includes around 160 members. Speakers will feature at monthly meetings, with smaller interest groups held in between.

Earlier this year, Peter Nicholl received an international award for his work as governor of the Central Bank of Bosnia and Herzegovina. The award was given by the Central Banking Institute for outstanding contribution to capacity building.

Peter grew up and was educated in Cambridge.

After spending five years working on the family dairy farm at Fencourt, he studied

economics and accounting.

He worked with New Zealand’s Reserve Bank for 22 years, five as its chief economist, then deputy governor and deputy chief executive from 1990 to 1995.

He moved to Washington for two years, becoming executive director with the World Bank Group; it was towards the end of his tenure there that he was asked whether he’d be interested in becoming governor of a central bank.

“I asked them what bank and they said Bosnia. My response was ‘Mmm, I might have to think about that’. But I liked the idea, so I talked it over with my wife [his economist wife Glynyss Watkins] and we decided to go.”

That was in 1997, two years after the Bosnian War ended. They found themselves in a country facing massive instability, searing hyperinflation and intense distrust. Seventy-six banks served a population of just over four million … there were no ATMs, people had no faith in the system, preferring to keep piles of notes under their mattresses.

Peter’s New Zealand background gave him valuable experience as well as a perceived neutrality that

Council chief plots road ahead

meant he could more easily navigate the difficulties of working with three local vicegovernors − one Bosniac, one Croat and one Serb, as well as three local board members, each one also a representative of the three main ethnic groups.

As time passed, Peter succeeded in creating a new stability and managed to push through a much-argued-over design of the new Bosnian currency, which ended up bearing his signature. After

six years in the job, the Bosnian presidency granted the couple citizenship in the hopes Peter would remain in the role.

Such an offer was unheard of in banking. He agreed to stay in the role for a further 18 months, during which he trained his successor and helped bed in a sustainable management system.

After leaving Bosnia, they lived in Italy for seven years before returning to New Zealand.

Waipā needs astute, strategic and wellinformed leaders for what chief executive Garry Dyet describes as a “pivotal time” to be an elected representative in the district.

“We need people who will put the time and the work in to understand the issues at stake and to make the best possible decisions on behalf of our entire district,” he says in his pre-election report published this week as a guide for those thinking of standing and voting in the local body elections.

Dyet is legally required under the Local Government Act to prepare a report independent of the existing mayor and councillors.

Nominations for the council opened on July 15 and close on August 12.

Voting starts in midSeptember and closes on October 8.

“The local government sector is in a period of huge and rapid transformation; more than I have ever seen before,”

Garry Dyet

says Dyet, who joined the council as a health inspector in 1980.

Reforms such as Three Waters, will have a “dramatic impact” on the organisation.

“We need decisionmakers who understand the implications of these reforms and will take a considered and long-term approach to important issues and opportunities.

“Waipā deserves diverse and capable community representatives, able to inspire and lead our district.”

Voters should also do their research and make an informed vote, says Dyet.

The district is growing so quickly, it will need 212 additional houses in Cambridge every year and 100 in Te Awamutu and Kihikihi “just to keep up”.

More talk about dogs Waipā council staff are on the road this week to get more comments from residents about dogs.

They will be in Cambridge at the Farmers’ Market on Saturday and at the car-boot sale in Bank St, Te Awamutu on August 6.

They will also have pop up stalls in both towns.

District Growth and Regulatory group manager Wayne Allan said more than 250 people had already submitted to the council about dog exercise rules, exercise and prohibited areas and other aspects of dog control.

“The feedback will help shape potential changes to dog control policy,” he said.

Confusion reigned last month when council put out comments which suggested dogs could be banned from some areas. It led to the council apologising when the backlash dominated social media.

Allan said feedback already covered where dogs should exercise and the rights of those who do not own dogs to enjoy the district’s reserves.

“People have got plenty to say which is great. The feedback will provide

THURSDAY JULY 28, 2022

Honours for firefighters Two firefighters who between them have given 67 years’ service to Cambridge and attended over 14,200 calls and musters have been presented with life membership to the Cambridge Volunteer Fire Brigade.

Don Weinberg and Andrew Goodwin have both retired from the brigade. They were presented with their awards by life member Keith Goodwin this month – at the first function overseen by new chief fire officer Dennis Hunt.

Those at the event heard that Don, who started with the brigade in September 1990, completed his volunteer service in December 2021 having achieved 32 years’ service and attended 7867 calls and musters. He started out as a firefighter before being promoted to motorman and taking care of the brigade’s tankers. In 2002 he was promoted to station officer, then to senior station officer in July 2019.

During his service he ran the annual Christmas fundraising raffle, operated an earlier water delivery service which helped generate income in its day, and looked after the brigade’s museum assets.

Andrew, known as Droid, started with the brigade in December 1986 and retired at the end of February this year.

He has attended 6400 calls and musters

during his 35 years’ service. His father Keith Goodwin was involved with the brigade in his day and was central to his son’s decision to join. Andrew also started as a firefighter before progressing to motorman.

As a mechanic, he looked after the maintenance of the fleet as well and spent many hours on the restoration of the iconic engine, Flick.

Over the years, he helped with driver training and the annual competition on the town square, winning the top trophy in that event for 11 of the past 19 years.

Andrew’s son Hayden was recently accepted into the brigade, continuing the family connection.

The same event saw service honours presented to other brigade members.

Richard Crease and Glenn Philip each obtained their Long Service Good Conduct Medal, a New Zealand award signifying 14 years’ continuous service with good conduct. Their medals were presented by Hunt and Waipā mayor Jim Mylchreest.

UFBA Honours were presented to Michael Morton (3-year certificates), Dylan Gould and Michael Graham (both 5-year medals), Andy Fairhall (2-year silver bar for 15 years), and Phil Johnson (2-year gold bar for 27 years).

Don Weinberg, left, with Keith Goodwin and chief fire officer Dennis Hunt.

The evening ended with a surprise for Hunt, who was himself presented with life membership by long standing member Richard Gerrand on behalf of the brigade.

Deputy chief fire officer Glenn Philip said life memberships were generally presented in Cambridge only to long standing members when they leave or retire from the brigade.

“However, after the passing of ex-chief Don Gerrand in May, the members voted to make an exception for our new chief who has been our rock over the last few months, and who will now be taking our brigade into the future,” he said. “CFO Hunt has completed 34 years in the Cambridge Brigade and has been an exemplary member.”

Get gardening

HOW TO STOP THE BIRDS

A monthly gardening column, courtesy of Amber Garden Centre Plant Plant leafy vegetables now and rotate your crops so you avoid growing the same plants in the same spot each year. Tomato, chilli and capsicum seeds can be planted in trays inside as its too cold outside.

Pruning Pruning roses should be completed by the first week of August.

Follow with a copper spray to help seal cuts and stop fungal infections. Feed with rose fertiliser and sheep pellets.

Trees Complete pruning on trees while they are still dormant.

Spraying Timing is critical at this time of the year to prevent disease. Things like leaf curl in stone fruit and black spot on apple trees. Liquid copper applied pre bud burst and 10-14 days later or immediately following rain.

Spring bulbs Fertilise flowering bulbs to ensure development of next year’s flowers Ornamental trees Now is the time to plant new trees for shade or flower. All of which are available now.

Potatoes Try early potatoes in a bucket. Three per 15 litre bucket. Start undercover and move outside once sprouted. Remember the early varieties are quick growing 60-70 days but can’t be stored for long periods like main crop varieties.

Hockey youngsters shine Cambridge

Several Cambridge High School hockey players competed for Waikato during the school holidays - one playing for a New Zealand invitation team.

Eden Wood scored a goal and was a stand-out performer for the New Zealand invitation under 14 team that played in the Anzac series against Australia.

Jackson Beale and Thomas Hocking played in the U18 national tournament in Palmerston North as Waikato placed third and Thomas scored his first goal for the representative team.

Rosie Davies played in the girls U18 national tournament in Nelson and also scored a few goals for her team.

Lochie Wood and Lachie Rutherford played in the U16 quadrangular tournament against Auckland, Thames Valley and Hawke’s Bay. Lochie was the team’s

Lochie Wood and Lachie Rutherford played for Waikato in the under 16 quadrangular tournament.

top goal scorer and Lachie’s intelligent calm defence was noticed by many.

Meanwhile the school’s U15 boys’ team played in the Tanner Cup, an invitational tournament competed for by the top schools across New Zealand.

These teams and players go on to play in the Rankin Cup, secondary schools’ premier tournament.

Hockey club spokesperson Glenys Bichan said the

invitation to play in the Tanner Cup places Cambridge High School hockey in the eyes of the wider New Zealand hockey scene.

“Mark and Karen Wood have been foremost in the development of this team and huge kudos must go to them for their commitment to the boys in coaching them not only to play excellent hockey but supporting them as young men,” she said.

Croquet tees off

The return of golf croquet to Cambridge’s Leamington Croquet Club last week saw players from around the Waikato gather for the club’s first winter tournament in two years.

Players came from areas that included Cambridge, Te Awamutu, Morrinsville, Hamilton, Te Aroha, Putāruru and Ōtorohanga.

First with five wins in section one

were Putāruru’s Ron Roberts and Peter Englebretsen, while second with three wins in the same section were Te Awamutu’s Bev Punch and Christopher Johnpillai.

First with four wins in section two were Don Lockhart, from Cambridge and Hamilton East clubs, and Tony Collins, and second with three wins in the same section were Jo Crombie and Chris Page from Te Awamutu.

Cambridge has some amazing and unusual trees tucked away in older gardens.

Sometimes called the ‘fried egg tree’ because of its flowers, but also known in its native Georgia, USA as loblolly bay, the gordonia is a member of the tea family and thus, of course, a cousin of the camellias.

With spread exceeding height, it provides dense cooling shade in summer, beautiful fragrant flowers in autumn and winter, and all-year-round interest in its somewhat tortured form and flaking cinnamon bark.

Camellias are native to Asia, except for the ‘curiously-named trio of Franklinia, Gordonia and Stewartia which represents the family in North America.’ (Hugh Johnson) The first two

were collected by John Bartram in 1760 for USA’s first botanic garden in Philadelphia.

The franklinia was named after Benjamin Franklin (notable inventor and one of the Founding Fathers of US), the gordonia after James Gordon who supplied many plants to the ‘infant’ Kew gardens. The stewartia is named after John Stuart, Earl of Bute who was unofficially the first Director of Kew Gardens.

Cambridge Tree Trust would like to thank Mitre 10 for their support for these monthly articles which are intended to raise interest and awareness of trees in Cambridge.
