Freedom camping - out of control. Queenstown people are so upset about the effects of freedom camping on their favourite recreation spots that they’re mobilising with facebook pages, media comments and petitions to Mayor Jim Boult. This is democracy in action and the engagement of local people makes it much easier for us as councillors to listen up, then find ways to apply pressure so we can make the changes we need. Lake Hayes reserve has become the face of the issue because it’s a prime recreation site ravaged by unfettered freedom camping. Children can no longer play in the previously safe creek because of its use as a toilet and picnicking on a hot evening there has become next to impossible. Local people are angry, and becoming hostile hosts. Worse, they have to foot the bill for the clean up. Freedom campers fall into largely three groups. 1. Our traditional New Zealand motorhome types, 2. tourists after an authentic New Zealand motorhome experience, and 3. tourists and itinerant workers seeking a free place to sleep for the night. Winners in the current game are those happy to trade a crowded, messy experience for a free place to sleep, and those profiting from hiring/selling campervans. Losers are local people enduring the effective loss of their reserves and motorhomers/responsible campers chasing quiet enjoyment of our country (and paying handsomely - around $450 a night for a large, self-contained camper). In 2011 ahead of the Rugby World Cup, the Freedom Camping Act was passed to provide a tool to control freedom camping. But the Act didn’t go anywhere near far enough and the ability for councils to take control of their own districts was severely curtailed. That’s why councils nationwide are struggling now to find the tools to control this problem. Locally this was discussed around the Council table last year, but no solution found because of the hindrance of the Act. We are seeking solutions now. With urgency. As announced by Mayor Boult last week, we need an immediate temporary fix for the rest of this summer as a prelude to longer-term solutions such as fixing the national law so we can fix our own by-law. Our campgrounds are generally full, so our choice is to fully turn people away from our district or to create space for them somewhere. Either way we need them out of Lake Hayes and other prime locations. In France they have aires-de-service – basically parking lots, not in prime spots, with facilities. This works. We have a couple of spaces – Lower Shotover Delta (not the existing carpark) and maybe part of 12-Mile – which could be suitably equipped, but the ratepayer will foot the bill (we can’t charge under the Act). Are those who profit from these vans willing to dig deep to help? Finally, we need a long-term fix that changes tourist expectations, critically examines the benefits of allowing camping in our community spaces and considers the issues of who pays for what. This means research beyond that already undertaken by the Responsible Campers group and, a good look at what we lose, what we gain and what trade-offs we’re willing to make.

Take A Hike!
I write in response to the recent newspaper coverage regarding the proposal to build a 27 metre tall hotel complex in Brecon Street, Queenstown. I suggest that all parties concerned, the developer, the council and anyone else who is looking to get rich by exploiting Queenstown, take a walk up the Queenstown Hill trail. There they will find two plaques. The first reads: “This pathway leads to our future. With each step, we seek the guidance and wisdom of those who have gone before us; we walk with a sense of hope, that those who follow in our footsteps beyond the year 2000 can do so with the same sense of pride in, and protection for, this beautiful place.” The second reads: “QUEENSTOWN HILL. THIS HILL WAS ONCE KNOWN AS TE TAPU-NUI. A HILL WHICH SIGNIFIES INTENSE SACREDNESS” So to those who wish to build their multi-storey complexes and to those who wish to push and break the boundaries that were set to protect this special place, go ahead. And then in
the future, when you have made your money and moved on to reap your vulgar destruction on another picturesque part of the world, come back to Queenstown, walk to the top of Queenstown Hill and look down upon what it has become. Then you can tell us all of how proud you are of what you have created. How you have turned this once quaint, relaxed and sleepy community town of wood and stone, into the Gold Coast of the South Island made of concrete, steel and glass, with gridlocked traffic and high rise apartments charging astronomical rents. Look down to see if there is still a green site within the CBD that you haven’t exploited. That is assuming that Queenstown Hill has not been sold to more developers like yourselves and the trial cleared for the construction of more mega mansions or fairground attractions. Because when it comes to Queenstown, nothing seems sacred anymore.

When Did Applying For A Job Become A Casual & Cavalier Task? When did applying for a job become a casual and cavalier task? We’ve recently posted a vacancy within our company for a Full Time Professional position. Instructions for how to apply were standard, specific and clear. “Please email your Cover Letter and CV in PDF format. Within minutes the applications were filing in. Great, I thought. I’ll weed through the ones that aren’t a good fit and find a few that really stand out and put effort into their applications. Out of 25 received so far; only 1 person was able to follow these 3 simple instructions. Your first test as a candidate is simply following instructions in the job ad. The second test is submitting a thoughtful, professional cover letter and CV. You may have heard the saying, “dress for the job you want, instead of the job you have”. This logic should also be considered when applying for an opening or vacancy. Ask yourself these questions: How badly do you want this job? Can you follow instructions? Are you Professional? Are you Respectful? Do you have Integrity in your work? If you’re feeling just “meh” about any of the above, then don’t waste your time applying because it will show in your application and I guarantee you, no professional employer will give you a second look.
Yes, true, this is Queenstown, home of transients and low paying hospo positions, but does that really mean you can’t have some self-respect and hold yourself to a higher standard? There is no excuse for laziness. You are not going to get hired just because you hit send on an email or because you think that the culture of Queenstown is so laid back that you don’t need to try too hard. Read the job ad more than once. Use words in your cover letter confirming you understand the skills and personality traits that are required for the position. And for goodness sake, address your application to the person who is placing the ad. If you’re still unsure why you’re not getting call-backs, maybe it’s time to seek some assistance from a career consultant; or at the very least, use the Google: “how to write a cover letter” or “how to apply for a job”
Unfortunately for those of us who paid $50 bucks to go to the gig, most of the set list and all of the encore were drowned out by the constant chatter of the Gary’s and Gail’s of the basin who somehow had managed to stumble in. The fact that Liam Finn - a genuine good sort - took a moment to tell us all to shut the fuck up and listen to the beautiful song

Have you signed the Freedom Camping change petition?
FACEBOOK/WEBSITE COMMENTS Editorial - 634 As the LWB as a publication is somewhat skewered towards the younger market, thats perhaps why it excuses despicable ongoing drunkenness and obnoxious behaviour by younger people as simply hijinks or the result of lack of provision of facilities by the council and oversight by the police. Apart from finally being able to get a one off low shot into the older generation, many of whom are the glue that holds this town together. You should perhaps better serve the community you now call home by highlighing the real problems that blight the area like Freedom camping, CBD parking and lack of reasonable priceed housing and the councillers who are strangely quite about all this. Or is that all a bit to close to home?

Don’t F**K With The Finns! Last night in Arrowtown we were privileged to have a Finn family concert at the local Athenaeum Hall. They were there to perform songs from their new album and of course a few of the classics. It should have been a wicked night and it was for the most part.
ASK ME
he wrote for his son, should have been enough. If you’re not at a gig to listen, dance, and enjoy yourself then what the fuck are you doing there? It’s not the time or the place to ask Gary about borrowing his zero turn lawn mower, nor for filling Gail in about how proud of young Garret you are. Here’s hoping the Finn’s didn’t take it to heart and that they might come back again one day, the same goes for Alanis Morisette or Colin Hay as I noticed the same loudmouth crowd at Gibbston on the weekend. For f**k sake Wakatipu get your shit together.
Not Mad, Just Disappointed
It’s not about how much trouble you cause, but more about how much money you spend. Downtown QT wants public drinking banned so we can pay them $10+ for the privilege of a pint.
