Richmond streets get a shake up JO KENT Construction work to improve the intersection of Elizabeth and Talbot Streets in Richmond is due to start this week - a result of last year’s ‘Streets for People’ trial neighbourhood layouts.

The first phase of the job will be the construction of a raised concrete platform on Elizabeth Street, which means this part of the street will be closed to all traffic for about three weeks.

Once the Elizabeth Street work is finished, construction will be-

gin on building a raised pedestrian crossing on Talbot Street, which is estimated to take about a month. The nearby entrance to the Richmond Mall carpark will be closed for the duration.

Talbot Street will remain open but will be reduced to one lane

with traffic management in place during the construction of the crossing.

Communications manager for TDC, Chris Choat, says the crossing is designed to reduce vehicle speeds to about 30kmh.

“Data shows that if a collision

occurs with a pedestrian at that speed there is a significantly reduced risk of death or serious injury, compared with 50kmh.”

As the ‘streets’ project has evolved, so have some of the

Students jumping in June JENNY NICHOLSON More than 600 Waimea Intermediate School pupils are jumping through June to support students who have family members affected by heart disease.

Kurtis Helliwell’s brother died of a rare heart condition at just 5-months old.

“Fundraising for Jumping June is giving me an opportunity to support a charity that can help others with heart conditions just like my brother Jack,” Kurtis

says.

Schools throughout the country are taking part in ‘Jumping June’ - a Heart Foundation event to raise funds and have fun while increasing awareness of heart health.

WIS teacher Hannah Bibby says she is blown away by how well students have done with fundraising.

In just one week they had raised $13,813.

Richmond streets get a shake up FROM PAGE 1 plans for the area.

The yellow no-stopping hatching that had been proposed on Salisbury Road will no longer be installed.

The marking is not a legal road marking and is intended only for railway level crossings and emergency services access.

These markings are at some minor intersections and private accessways but the TDC prefers to limit their use as much as possible.

A speed table at the intersection of Florence and Elizabeth Street is also being considered to slow cars around the kindergarten’s 15-minute parks.

These should discourage through traffic, or ‘rat running’ using those streets.

Widening the footpath between Linden Court and Talbot Street

is also being considered, as is making the temporary planter boxes into a permanent feature.

This will start with a limited number of sites and continue in subsequent years as budgets allow.

Chris says any residents directly affected will be contacted as the design process begins next month.

The project was kick-started in 2020 when Waka Kotahi Transport Agency NZ set up a fund called ‘Innovating Streets for People’ to be used for trial projects.

The TDC was given funding to support the community and help shape their streets in ways that allow more people to move around safely.

Works will begin at a Richmond intersection. Photo: Jo Kent.

Government funding for local tourism set to end MAX FRETHEY The Nelson Regional Development Agency (NRDA) will stop receiving funding from government for its Destination Management Plan (DMP) from 2023.

The Government requested the five-year plans from regional tourism organisations (RTOs) around the country to help them facilitate a shift towards sustainability in the visitor market. NRDA chief executive Fiona Wilson says she understood the NRDA would receive funding for two years of its plan post-development, with the agency aiming to use the second year of funding for 2023. The first year of NRDA’s plan used the funding to develop several initiatives including marketing campaigns and the promotion of environmental projects.

“The funding for the plans was absolutely, fantastically welcomed,” Fiona says.

“We could no longer, at that time, seek industry partnership funding.”

Government first gave the funding to a sector struggling with the Covid-19 pandemic, but with the second Omicron wave complicating the industry’s recovery, Fiona says another year of funding would

have been a massive help.

“We were very disappointed that there was no second year of delivery programme funding. That funding has paused and stopped just when the plans are getting traction.”

But despite no longer receiving government funding, she says the plan will continue to guide the NRDA’s approach to the visitor economy, though it will have to be scaled down.

Nelson Tasman is not alone as the end to funding has affected all RTOs across the country.

Lisa Bond from Destination Kaikōura says they are thankful for the funding they have received but hoped they would receive more in the future.

“We were hopeful that they would see there is further need,” she says.

Kaiteriteri Recreation Reserve chief executive David Ross was a stakeholder in the NRDA’s reference group for their DMP. He thought the group was productive and wishes all the goals in the plan could have reached.

“I was surprised,” he says. “It’s disappointing that it’s been made a little bit more challenging.” However, David also acknowledges that he wasn’t party to the Government’s decision-making process and couldn’t comment on whether he thought it was appropriate.

Nelson MP Rachel Boyack says that Nelson has received significant Government investment to support tourism in the region through the Covid-19 pandemic.

“To support the development of destination management plans, and to build industry skills and capability, the Nelson Regional Development Agency received significant investment of $1.7 million over the last two years.”

Rachel says that this investment was designed to provide immediate support and accelerate the recovery for the tourism industry.

“As such, this funding was never intended to be a permanent mechanism for supporting the implementation of destination management plans. The ownership, management and implementation of destination management plans are the responsibility of local government.

“The Government has supported tourism in Nelson during the pandemic with a range of investments, with loans and grants to tourism businesses, funding to support local events through the regional events fund, and funding to both our councils to help them develop tourism infrastructure.”

‘Prize’ truck donated to transport museum MAX FRETHEY The Nelson Transport Museum has welcomed the latest edition to its collection - a vintage 1964 Hino logging truck.

The truck, which is believed to be the last functional one in New Zealand, was donated to the museum by the local area manager for Hino, Steve Steele.

“It was restored for the 50th anniversary of Hino Truck New Zealand in 2014,” he says. “It really hasn’t had a place to call home since then.”

Not wanting to see the 58-yearold truck go to waste, Steve donated it to the museum so it has a good home.

“I thought it was a good attraction for them to have seeing as it’s the only one.”

The museum is part of the Higgins Heritage Park in Pigeon Valley and hosts about 25 vintage transport vehicles, some of which are 100-years-old.

The truck itself is a ZM120, one

It boasts a six-cylinder engine, has 195 horsepower at 2300rpm, and weighs 21 tonnes.

“We’re pretty privileged to have it in our humble abode here,” Historic Transport Museum Trust chairperson Keith Swift says.

“Thank goodness that Hino had

the presence of mind to get it restored.”

Driving the ’64 Hino feels a lot different to the more modern truck, according to retired log-

ging truck driver and museum trustee Hilton Win. “You can feel the road,” he says.

“It’s absolutely awesome.”

The museum has been struggling in recent years like most attractions around the country as the Covid-19 pandemic has meant few fundraisers and visitors.

“It’s been a stretch for us to keep running,” Keith says.

However, Transport Fest will arrive at the museum on Saturday 1 October for the weekend and will feature children’s rides, raffles, a silent auction, craft stalls, food and drink, and oompah music.

The $10 entry fee for the festival will provide a much-needed boost to the museum’s coffers.

But in the meantime, if you’d like to visit and see the truck and the rest of the collection, the museum is open each Monday and Wednesday.

Hilton definitely thinks it’s worth having a look.

“We’ve got a prize here that nobody else has got.”

This Aranui Rd, Māpua, property sold for more than $3 million, setting a new sales record for the suburb.

managing director Steve Kelso says the unprecedented sale reinforces the strength of the local property market, despite some price decreases in other areas of NZ. “We are still seeing a significant shift to the lifestyle regions from some of the ur-

ban centres, which has been great for the Nelson-Tasman region,” he says. “Areas such as Māpua, Ruby Bay, the Nelson Lakes and the Port Hills are still very attractive to buyers, as are smaller properties within Nelson central.”

The record-breaking Māpua

sale comes hot on the heels of the opening of the new NZSIR office in Nelson, now owned by franchisees Steve and Keryn Kelso.

“We were delighted to manage the sale of this special property in Māpua and the timing couldn’t be more apt.”

TDC cycling strategy welcomed MAX FRETHEY Tasman District Council’s recently released walking and cycling strategy has been welcomed by many in the community.

Peter Olorenshaw, from the local sustainable travel group Nelsust, says the strategy is everything the region could have hoped for in an active travel policy.

“They’ve done a really good job. They’ve thrown down the gauntlet now for Nelson City Council,” he says. “They’re showing how to do it in an urban area.”

The strategy aims to encourage active travel in the region by addressing all urban areas in Tasman District - from Richmond and Motueka to Collingwood and St Arnaud.

“If we keep the same number of people cycling to work and schools, in 2050, because of population growth, we’ll end up with all these extra cars.

That’s just untenable,” Peter says.

The plan details that most residential roads will see their speed limits lowered to 30kmh and have traffic calm-

Nelsust member Peter Olorenshaw says Tasman District Council’s Walking and Cycling Strategy is top of the class.

The region’s main arterial roads, such as Salisbury Road and Wensley Road in Richmond or Lord Rutherford Road North in Brightwater, will remain at 50kmh but most roadside parking along

these routes will be removed to make way for cycleways separated from the street with a physical barrier.

The council’s strategic policy manager, Dwayne Fletcher, says that while many parking spots will be removed, there will still be plenty of underutilised parking options around nearby.

“There’s a lot of unused space on our roads,” he says.

“There is plenty of parking in the network.”

Council’s transport planner Clare Scott added that council hand-delivered letters to properties affected by the removal of parking spots and asked them for feedback.

Fifty-seven per cent of those who responded approved of the changes while another 10 per cent supported the move but had some follow-up questions.

“There’s been quite a high level of engagement,” she says.

Waimea College’s associate principal Graeme Smith is also in support of the plan.

“It’s the greatest good for the greatest number of people.”

He says that the vehicle traffic that travels down Salisbury Road outside the college is now comparable to the volume of traffic that used the road before Whakatū Drive opened.

With such a high level of traffic, Graeme says it’s been very lucky that there haven’t been any major accidents involving any students.

“It’s a safety issue.”

Shirtless man vandalises cars

A shirtless man smashed wing mirrors on several cars on Nayland Road in Stoke on Saturday. One driver who saw the incident says she was worried the man was going to jump on to her windscreen. “He had his top off and was running straight at my car, but then he just hit my mirror, smashing glass everywhere.” As she drove further up the road, she saw all the parked cars had suffered the same fate with a sea of broken glass on the road. Police say they are aware of the incident after receiving several calls from the public.

Snow for Rainbow

Rainbow Ski Field woke up to well over 1 metre of snow at the base with even more up the top of the slopes at the weekend. The team were busy packing it down and digging out, showing a promising start to the winter season. With so much snow, there is substantial avalanche risk so the road up to the field is not passable. “The gate at the bottom is locked for good reason, so please do not try and get up here,” says mountain manager Thomas Harry. “Winter is off to a flying start.”

New kit for rescue helicopter

A cutting edge $50,000 defibrillator has been donated to the Nelson Marlborough Rescue Helicopter Trust by Nelson company Flightcell International. Trust general manager Paula Muddle says it was extremely generous and will serve both patients and aircrew of the rescue chopper.

Wet start to winter KATE RUSSELL Nelson Tasman is on track to have one of its wettest Junes in years, with the amount of rainfall so far this month creeping up to be almost double the amount the region saw last year.

Nelson has already had 116m of rain this month, surpassing the region’s June average of 84mm.

In comparison, just 76mm on rain fell in Nelson in June 2021, and in 2020 there was a total of 84mm.

Metservice meteorologist Tui McInnes says Nelson is yet to see a rain-free day this month, but the sun is set to make an appearance today.

“Things will start to clear up this week. You’ll see finer conditions, but it will be cloudy at times and there may still be a chance of a shower.”

According to Metservice, Nelsonians can expect some showers again on Thursday and Friday but the sun should make an appearance for the weekend.

Volunteers giving more to community JENNY NICHOLSON Nicole Semaine will be carrying more than half her body weight in gear when she climbs the 1103 stairs of the Firefighter Sky Tower Challenge.

She is joining six others from the Richmond Volunteer Fire Brigade to climb the 51 flights of stairs on Saturday 20 August 2022 to raise money for Leukaemia and Blood Cancer New Zealand (LBC).

Every day seven children and adults in New Zealand are diagnosed with a blood cancer.

LBC is a charity supporting patients and their families.

Last year $1.37 million was raised through the Sky Tower Challenge and an associated event.

It’s John Kingsbury’s seventh year climbing the steps, and his climb will be made more difficult by adding a steel cylinder and 9 extra floors as part of the Man of Steel.

Last year John won the 51 stair climb in the division for more mature climbers. His best time is 16 minutes and 13 seconds.

“Th fittest young ones can climb in less than 9 minutes. They’re superstars,” says John. “Our goal is to get to the top alive.”

She says she is more nervous to do the stair challenge than she is fighting fires.

“When we are on the way to a fire, I am thinking through what I will do when I get there so I’m not anxious,” she says. “With the stair climb, people leave in 30 second intervals and there will be a lot

of waiting and that’s when I will feel nervous.”

Their training has been mixed. Ashley takes on the Tamaki steps at least three times once or twice a week.

John says he trains in the hills and by eating lots.

They all say it’s about overall fitness and controlling your breathing.

“If you go for a run then

breathe through a straw you will see what it is like wearing the breathing apparatus up the stairs,” Kerry Donnelly says.

The climb was scheduled for earlier this year but was postponed due to covid. To support the local firefighters, go to https://firefighterschal lenge.org.nz/t/richmondvol unteerfirebrigade

Man stole more than $2.5k from employer TRACY NEAL

Open Justice Reporter

A manager who stole more than $2000 from his employer has managed to keep his name secret for now, because of a “host of mental health” matters.

The 51-year-old has been convicted on a theft charge, related to 98 separate transactions in which he took money from the sale of alcohol from the business where he worked.

The man, dressed in a suit and tie, admitted the charge in the Nelson District Court on Monday, which heard how he had taken the money while working as a duty manager for the business from January 6 until February 26 this year.

Police prosecution said each transaction was caught on CCTV, which showed the man, who each time he received cash

for alcohol purchases, placed money in and around the cash register, and did not enter the purchase into the system.

He eventually handed himself in, when the tally of money he took from each sale reached $2520.

His lawyer Steven Zindel argued that interim name suppression was warranted due to the man’s mental health issues, which were a culmination of events over the past two years.

Judge Tony Zohrab convicted the man and remanded him on bail for sentence in August, with an order that more material was to be filed if suppression was to continue.

Local photo goes global JENNY NICHOLSON Jack Burden’s photos have recently received international attention and recognition.

The Nelson photographer received a bronze award in the international Sky-watcher Australia Astro Photography competition for his photo of the moon rising over Split Apple Rock.

“I had tried to capture it a few times but failed with the alignment,” Jack says. “This time I was in the right place at the right time. It was a partial lunar eclipse which made it special.”

Last month his photo of waves on the sand bar in Whangamata was picked up by someone with a Facebook page with over a million followers.

The photo of what looks like square wave formations is one of his favourites and was taken a few years ago. The New Zealand Herald saw the photo and ran an article late last month.

“I think it appeals because it takes the eye a while to decide what you are looking at,” Jack says. “Some people have said it looks like an older person’s neckline with a tartan jumper.”

Looking after our community FreshChoice Richmond owners Gary, Lisa and the team are constantly looking at ways to enhance their customers shopping experience and are proud to be industry leaders when it comes to promoting healthy living.

Instead of chocolate bars, lollies and other tempting treats that can often find their way into your shopping cart when you’re waiting at the checkout, Gary has made a switch, putting fruit, water and other healthy choices in their place, a move that has been celebrated by many in the community.

Sonja who has worked in the store for several years and is a long time friend of the owners, understands that there is a wide range of dietary requirements in the community and strives to be as inclusive as possible with an extensive health foods range. You will find Keto, Gluten Free, Paleo, Organic, Plant Based and Low Sugar ranges. Look out for them on your next visit!

Fixing our health system Last week Parliament passed the Pae Ora (Healthy Futures) Act. This new law will create a health system that works for all New Zealanders, removes the postcode lottery, and puts patients and communities at the heart of our health system.

On July 1 we will establish Health New Zealand and the Māori Health Authority as permanent entities to replace the fragmented DHB system.

We’re also continuing our massive rebuild programme to ensure New Zealand’s health infrastructure is fit for purpose. The Government has invested an extra $6 billion since 2017 to upgrade our hospitals and health infrastructure.

One of the upgraded facilities will be our new Nelson Hospital. I campaigned in 2020 for a new Hospital in Nelson, and I've worked hard to secure funding in Budget 2022 to get this project started.

The George Manson Building is earthquake-prone, and needs replacing to ensure we have the best facilities available for our aging and growing population. The Nelson Hospital upgrade project will be the biggest economic development project in Nelson in a generation and will provide jobs as we secure our recovery from Covid-19.

Opinion $9.8 million stormwater upgrade set to begin It is part of a plan to drive us all insane Tania Culverwell How does it take 10 months to dig a hole, pull out old pipe, put in new pre-made pipe, fill whole back in and reseal the road over a, at most, 1km bit of road?

One of Jesus’s well-known sayings is “Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you” Like all of you, I don’t like being judged by others, and I also try not to judge others.

There was one thing that he said during that conversation that I still clearly remember to this day.

“I love to come to Property Managem this place because no one judges me here.”

I remember a conversation that I had with a homeless friend a few years ago.

This homeless friend came to our Richmond church every Wednesday morning, when we offered him morning tea and some food.

I never asked him how he be-

Proudly brought to you by...

Nothing Ventured, Nothing Gained RUTH RUSS If the name of Irishman Richard Walsh Hyland is not widely known in Richmond, then his legacy certainly is. Three Brothers Corner, named for the gum trees which once stood there, were planted by Hyland in the mid-1800s. Although, as the name of the corner suggests, three trees are remembered, there were originally four, planted in memory of four of Hyland’s children who died in infancy and were buried near the site.

Hyland had 13 further children with his wife Elizabeth Brown. She had arrived aboard the Bolton in 1842, and he in 1845. They were married in 1849. They lived on a property in Ranzau, and Hyland also ran a van during the 1850s from Ranzau, through the Star and Garter to the Trafalgar Hotel in Nelson on Mondays, Wednesdays and Saturdays. The fare was 2 shillings and sixpence, and he also carried parcels.

About 1872, Hyland bought a farm in the Motueka area, where bad luck almost immediately struck. In January 1873, Hyland, a Mrs Hunt and two children were travelling by horse and trap over the Moutere Hills one evening when the horse jibbed, and fell with the trap and occupants over the edge of the road into a gully. Mr Hunt, who had gotten out of the trap to walk up the hill, managed to coax the horse with the trap up onto the road. Mrs Hunt and the chil-

in Richmond Richard Hyland was publican at the White Hart Hotel in Gladstone Road. Photo: Supplied. dren were uninjured, the trap undamaged. Hyland was in a serious amount of pain and was taken to the Moutere Inn, and he eventually recovered.

Two months later, however, while two of his sons were picking gravel out of a hillside near Mount Cook, a portion of undermined ground gave way under one of the young men and he was buried. Fortunately, his brother ran for help and he was rescued, but was “in a very precarious state” for some time. In September 1883, Hyland took charge of the White Hart Hotel, and was the licensee until 1885. But the venture did not go well. The next year, Hyland was facing bankruptcy.

He owed money to several unsecured creditors and had four mortgages over his various properties. In court, Hyland said of his time as a publican at the White Hart, “I did not succeed in the public house and things went from bad to worse” . He had apparently gone into the business after becoming burnt out from farming in

Motueka and Lower Moutere.

Although the mortgagees had ordered the sale of Hyland’s properties to pay his debts, it was thought that the times were so bad, “they either would not sell or would realize no surplus for the creditors if sold”, reported the Nelson Evening Mail. The court looked kindly upon Hyland, and he was given time to “pull himself together”. The wool on his 60 ewes, all in lamb, would shortly prove profitable. “It was neither to [the mortgagees’] interest nor that of the other creditors to force a man to break up his home and get nothing by it, while if let alone he might possibly pull through.” Eventually, he put this hardship behind him, and later in life moved to Nelson. In 1899, the Colonist reported, “Elizabeth Hyland, aged 69, been in the Colony 56 years, was granted a full pension, also Richard Hyland, aged 74, who had been 53 years in the Colony”. Elizabeth died six years later, Richard in 1915, aged 91 years.

Teen twins teach knife making JENNY NICHOLSON Twin 15-year-olds who live off the grid in Westport are offering a knife making course in Tapawera in July.

Jimi and Indy Drake live in the wilderness where they are home-schooled. Their mother Averil says they have always encouraged their children to work things out rather than call a tradie. They started fixing tools, and with their recycling and repurposing ethic moved to making tools from materials they found.

After learning to make their own knives they offered workshops to other homeschool families and from there received requests for classes from throughout the country. Last year they toured the South Island and are again offering classes in the Tasman region.

The classes are suitable for those from five to adult, with all those 12 and under requiring parental or adult supervision. Each person leaves with the knife they have made.

The boys also sell knife-making kits.

Along with their courses, the boys keep busy on their property building sheds and fences as well as a variety of other projects.

They have recently developed a methane biodigester which holds compostables and when pressure builds up, the methane from the rotting matter moves through a pipe where the methane can be used to power a gas stove.

“They have made it and it works,” Averil says.

Other projects include developing gravity-fed hydro power and a rocket-powered quad bike. Averil says her other set of twins are just 7-years-old but are beginning to be interested in knife-making too.

Glenhope’s Sophie Browning has 30 people registered for the knife-making course in Tapawera, but 50 participants are required. Her boys, Coan, 8, and Mason, 6, are pretty excited about attending.

Email endersbyfam@gmail. com to register.

If you or someone you know is thinking of selling, or just want to find out where your property sits in the current market, I will welcome your call.

Pic’s Peanut Butter expands growing trial RNZ Nelson-based Pic’s Peanut Butter sources its nuts from overseas but wants to create a viable peanut-growing industry here - to make its product NZ grown and to reduce its environmental footprint.

A small trial last year went well - so nine hectares were planted around Northland this season.

Company owner Pic Picot says the harvest is underway and the results are looking promising.

“We did some exploratory plantings last year and that turned out pretty fine, we made a little bit of peanut butter out of it, but this year we’ve got a harvesting machine up there and we’re digging up five different plots in different areas around Northland.

“We’re looking at getting about two tonnes of nuts per hectare, we’d like to double that, then we would be on par with what

they’re growing in Australia,” he says.

Pic’s Peanut Butter currently sources all of its nuts from Australia and Brazil, which caused some issues during the pandemic.

“Australia is having more and more trouble growing peanuts due to the weather, it’s become unpredictable, and Brazil is a very long way away so with the disruptions in freight it’s been

touch and go sometimes,” Pic says.

“We’re a peanut butter factory, there’s not a lot we can do without peanuts.”

He says they buy about $10 million worth of peanuts a year - money he would like to spend domestically.

“It would be great and to spend that kind of money in a place like Northland.”

In the long run the company

would like to establish a processing factory to deshell and clean the nuts before they are sent to the Nelson factory for roasting.

Picot says there is a lot of work to be done in the meantime with the peanut butter produced last season not tasting the best.

“I think we harvested a bit early, there is a lot to learn still but we will get there.”

Warning of high avalanche risk after fresh snowfalls Recent snowfall has brought with it an increased avalanche risk throughout the South Island, with Nelson Lakes sitting at “considerable” risk.

The Mountain Safety Council chief executive, Mike Daisley, says when the mountains received large amounts of fresh snow it could take multiple days for it to settle and those itching to hit the backcountry slopes this weekend should wait it out.

The Southern Alps have been heavily blanketed with snow and more is predicted in several parts of the country over the coming week, even as far north as the Tongariro National Park.

The New Zealand Avalanche Advisory has begun early forecasting this season in light of the current weather.

The Arthur’s Pass, Craigieburn Range, Aoraki/Mt Cook, and new Aspiring region are all classified as ‘high’ avalanche danger, while Nelson Lakes sits at ‘considerable’.

‘High’ danger level indicates very dangerous avalanche conditions where travel is not recommended as natural and human-triggered avalanches are likely, according to the New Zealand Avalanche Advisory.

Many of the remaining regions, including Tongariro in the North Island, Fiordland, and Wanaka will begin forecasting over the coming days.

Avalanche forecasters currently have very little conditions data available to them since ski areas, guiding operations and heli ski companies are not yet fully operational.

Kaikōura’s first paūa season in five years: 35 tonnes of shellfish harvested in three months SAMANTHA GEE / RNZ After Kaikōura’s first paūa season in five years, data shows about 35 tonnes of the shellfish were harvested by recreational fishers during the three-month period.

That’s more than the commercial and customary catch combined and there are now calls for the recreational take to be reported like the rest of the fishery.

Gina Solomon comes from a family of divers who gather kaimoana - and last summer was the first time her adult daughter went diving for pāua in Kaikōura.

“That was a really wonderful moment, but it didn’t last long because it was horrifying to see the number of people.

“We went to the beach three times and then I just couldn’t bear to go again, there were too many people.”

As the administrator of Te Korowai o Te Tai ō Marokura, a group that advocates on behalf of Kaikōura’s marine environment, Solomon said it was “heartbreaking” to learn 35 tonnes of paūa was gathered during the season.

“We want people to have that experience because we individually know how rewarding that is and what it means to people, but we’ve got to be a lot smarter about doing that and I’m quite confident that the research is going to show that we’ve devastated that stock.”

The fishery reopened for a threemonth period in December for the first time since the earthquake devastated seabeds along its coastline, five years ago.

Once a delicacy you had to dive for, the uplift caused by the 2016 earthquake means people can now harvest the shellfish in ankle deep water. Residents reported days over summer where hundreds of vehicles were parked

Commercial pāua diver and Te Korowai member David Rae is concerned that at least seven times what was set aside as a recreational allowance was harvested. Photo: RNZ / Samantha Gee. along State Highway 1 near Kaikōura, with large groups of people in the water, gathering pāua. Te Korowai o Te Tai ō Marokura held an emergency meeting in January to discuss the community’s concerns.

“We were worried that the sheer numbers would have a devastating effect on the stock and we’re not really surprised what happened, we’re disappointed, of course, and disappointed that Fisheries didn’t take our advice and that of the community.”

The group works alongside Kaikōura Marine Guardians, established by the Kaikōura Marine Management Act 2014 and appointed by conservation and primary industries ministers.

The Guardians presented a set of recommendations to MPI ahead of the fishery re-opening.

Its advice was to reopen the fishery for a three-month season, lower the daily bag limit to three pāua per person with an accumulation limit of six, along with vehicle and vessel limits, a larger minimum legal-size limit of 130mm and reporting of the recreational catch using a smartphone app.

Fisheries NZ sets a catch limit of five pāua per person, down from six pre-earthquake, kept the minimum legal-size limit of 125mm with no vehicle and vessel limits or requirements to report the catch.

The recreational allowance was set at five tonnes, the commercial allowance at 23 tonnes and the customary allowance at 7.5 tonnes.Commercial pāua diver and Te Korowai member David Rae was concerned at least sev-

en times what was set aside as a recreational allowance was harvested.

“We are really happy in the commercial sector that we are capped with the quota system in place as without that there wouldn’t be a viable fishery.

“The ministry needs to look at the whole fishery and the total catch, not just the commercial and customary catch.”

He said there was no reason why the recreational take could not be recorded.

“It’s not impossible, there doesn’t seem to be much appetite for looking at logical possible solutions, such as compulsory reporting and perhaps licensing, as is done pretty much everywhere overseas.”

Fisheries New Zealand inshore manager south, Allen Frazer, said

Te Uru Rākau

1700 recreational fishers were surveyed over the season in order to estimate the recreational harvest. He said, on average, about 250 people a day fished for pāua.

More information on the condition of the pāua beds, before and after the season, gathered from in-water surveys is expected to be released in the coming months.

“It’s very much a case of pulling together information and consider what’s a sustainable approach going forward.In terms of next steps, the recovery of the fishery to date is very much being led by the Kaikoura Marine Guardians and iwi and the community are taking a long-term view of its management.” Frazer said the Kaikōura community would be consulted before any decisions were made about the future of its pāua fishery.

Dogs looking for loving Biodiversity budget retirement homes falls woefully short JENNY NICHOLSON

FEDERATED FARMERS

A charitable trust is helping facilitate loving retirement homes for working dogs when they are no longer able to work on the land.

Retired Working Dogs NZ Charitable Trust is a national group that has so far placed 950 dogs.

St Arnaud’s Emma McCool says it’s a lovely service and she is hoping to find a home for her dog Jess.

“My partner and I love Jess dearly, but unfortunately, we are running too many dogs and we need to be training the young dogs,” she says.

“Jess is a little bit slow on the hills.”

She says often older dogs can cause problems when out hunting.

“They are not as fast and can take a long time to come back,” Emma says.

“If they lose their hearing and sight it can be dangerous for them out hunting.”

Emma likes the idea of working dogs being able to live out

Emma McCool’s working dog Jess likes to lie around more these days and Emma is hoping to find her a loving home for her retirement. Photo: Supplied. their days somewhere comfy on a couch.

Jess is a medium sized, 10-year-old dog who Jess describes as a funny thing with a lot of cheeky character.

Because they enjoy her so much, they are hoping she goes to a local family so they can still look after her at times.

Retired Working Dogs NZ Charitable Trust agrees that as working dogs start to slow

down, many of them are unhappy at being left behind when there is work to be done.

They advertise dogs on behalf of the owners as long as no sale price is charged.

“Our aim is to find loving retirement homes for these amazing dogs, after all their years of hard work,” their website says. To enquire about rehoming a working dog visit retiredworkingdogs.org.nz

While the latest draft National Policy Statement for Indigenous Biodiversity (NPS-IB) is a significant improvement its success is undermined by woeful funding in Budget 2022 to assist private landowners, Federated Farmers says.

Only $20 million of the $150m needed over the next four years was allocated.

Keys to Federated Farmers’ support of the new biodiversity policies will be sound criteria on what are truly ‘significant’ natural areas, and protection of existing land use rights where they are not degrading native biodiversity.

“Implementation of the new rules also needs to be accompanied by a comprehensive and well-resourced financial support package,” said Chris Allen, the Feds national board member who was part of the cross-sector Biodiversity Collaborative Group (BCG) that made recommendations to the government.

An exposure draft of the long-delayed NSP-IB has just been released, another step in the long journey of this policy.

“Federated Farmers endorses the goal of improving New Zealand’s biodiversity management, including maintenance, and where needed, protection of biodiversity values,” Chris said.

“Much of New Zealand’s biodiversity remains because landowners have done the right thing, and second-generation planning processes across the country are either already embedded or starting to become so.

The NPS-IB needs to build on and support this impetus, not derail it.”

On an initial read, Feds is concerned about some aspects of the NPS-IB exposure draft where it departs from the BCG’s recommendations, “but we need time to fully study it.

“Given the importance of this National Policy Statement and the two years since the last draft was put out, six weeks’ consultation will be tight to do it justice.

“Success of the NPS-IB hangs upon the government’s commitment to the partnerships, support and other key measures recommended in the BCG’s report,” Chris said.

“The budget of $20m million over five years will not scratch the surface of what is needed.”

Healing from depression through music KATE RUSSELL A Nelson music teacher is using her talents and experiences to shine a light on post-natal depression at the Nelson Fringe Festival later this month.

‘Break’ is Jessica D’ath’s first original show and tells the story of her journey through post-natal depression when her daughter was born eight years ago.

“It is a one-act piece, featuring original songs I’ve written over many years, intertwined with stories which are a mixture of monologues and outright storytelling,” she says.

“The throughline of the show is an exploration into how we portray ourselves on social media as people, particularly new mothers, and how this often hides the reality of the experience, even if we think we are being very clear in asking for help.”

Jessica’s depression started during her pregnancy.

“When my daughter was about six months old, I was hospitilised and it just went from bad to worse,” she says.

“She wouldn’t sleep, and I couldn’t sleep. I didn’t bond with her right away. I stopped going to mums’ groups and I stopped talking to all my friends, so I started blogging online - it was my one way of coping and I wanted to turn that into something.”

Writing the show, which features eight original songs, has been a healing experience for Jessica.

“For me, music takes the place of where words can no longer go,” she says.

“It feels like music was the best way to tell the story.

“Doing this gives me ownership back over the experience again. Yes, it destroyed me at that moment but now I’m here

and I can actually say I have control over it, and I can move it forward.”

This is the fourth time Jessica has entered the show in the Nelson Fringe Festival, but the first three times she withdrew it.

“I didn’t feel like I was far enough removed from the experience yet and I also didn’t feel like it was ready.”

The performance is 45 minutes long and Jessica says her goal is to take it to other fringe festivals around the country.

‘Break’ is on for two nights, Saturday 25 and Sunday 26 June at 6.05pm at the Refinery ArtSpace.

Tickets can be purchased from www.eventfinda.co.nz/2022/ nel son-fringe-break/nelson To view the full Nelson Fringe Festival schedule visit www.nel sonfringe.co.nz

Tasman Hockey Club have clean-swept the 2022 Top of the South hockey tournament by winning both men’s and women’s divisions.

The Tasman White men and Tasman Women (Carrot Chaos) walked away deserving winners after two days of hardfought action over the weekend.

With teams from the West Coast and Marlborough in town for the competition, everyone played at least four half-hour games over Saturday and Sunday, with some exciting action in the pouring rain.

In the men’s draw it was Tasman who dominated, with their White and Black teams playing off for the silverware in a 2-1 back and forth affair.

“A good show that the development is working within the club. The proof is in the pudding.”

He says it’s a testament to the hard work by both the players and support staff to get the development team to where it is.

“It’s three years old; we started when the kids were 13, and now they’re 15-to-16.

“When we first started we got a bit of a thrashing, and we’ve gone from never winning a game to competing in the P1 competition.”

After an early goal in the first half from a penalty corner for White, the Black team tied the game in the second stanza with another penalty corner before White sealed the win with an open-field goal.

Jared says they did well to hold on in what was a battle throughout.

Newest Giant import shows skills JACK MALCOLM Sam Thompson says he already feels like a part of the community after just three weeks in town.

The more than 2-metre tall power forward travelled from America as a replacement import for the injured Tom Ingham and the Mike Pero Nelson Giants.

With overseas experience in Europe and Asia as well as playing

in summer and preseason leagues for the NBA’s Charlotte Hornets, he says it’s exciting to be on New Zealand soil.

“New Zealand was the number one choice.”

After talking with his agent, he says they were looking for a league for his summer season and the opportunity came up.

By chance, NBL’s leading points scorer in the Giants, Trey Mourn-

ing, had been on Sam’s team previously and they got talking about if there was a spot on the team.

“It was a lucky coincidence. I would have stayed and played closer to home (otherwise).”

A game-leading 23 points in his second appearance for the Giants against the Southland Sharks saw him put his talents to the test.

Sam says the game is bigger, stronger and faster in the States, with a focus on “pace and space”, that’s been an exciting challenge to tackle.

“It’s fun coming over here and playing a different style of basketball, finding ways to be effective. Playing within the flow so me getting my numbers doesn’t interfere with our flow.”

He says the club also has a different vibe than others he’s been in.

“The club feels ingrained in the Nelson community. We go out there trying to represent that.

We’re going to keep playing hard and put out a brand of basketball they’re proud of.”

Sam says the Giants have all the makings of a championship side this season.

“We come in every day to be the best defensive team in the league.

We have championship aspirations and we have everything we need. “I want to give it my all and I want to accomplish our goals.

Whenever I’m on the basketball court I want to show what I can do and how much time I put into the game.”

All Blacks: Mako’s winger Lecister Fainga’anuku has been named in the All Blacks squad.

He is the only new cap from the region in the squad, joining fellow Makos halfback Finlay Christie, midfielder David Havili and wingers Will Jordan and Sevu Reece. Loose forward Ethan Blackadder missed selection after a season-ending shoulder injury.

Football - After all local football was postponed due to pitch conditions, the only local team to play last week was Nelson Suburbs in the Southern League against Green Island FC. Two goals to Suburbs in the opening 20 minutes saw them race out to an early, and unassailable, lead, walking away with a 3-1 win.

Waimea Combined faces relegation JACK MALCOLM Waimea College Barbarians’ future in the Miles Toyota 1st XV competition has been put in jeopardy after a decision to reshape the first 15 competition.

From next year, the competition will be split into a championship and premiership, with the top 10 teams from this season’s round robin going into the top grade.

Sitting second-to-last on the table of 13 teams, it’s now a race to see if Waimea Combined will be able to keep their spot in the competition.

Coach Marc Hunter says it’s going to be a challenge, but one they believe

they’re up for.

“Our aim this year was to make top 10 right from the start. At the moment we are lower table. To be honest, we should be better.”

The announcement said that the decision was made to better align with summer sport schedules, reduce player load and improve financial sustainability, while also providing opportunity for more interschool competitions.

While Marc says he can agree with the reasoning behind the decision making, he doesn’t think it affects them as equally as other teams.

“It’s easier for smaller Canterbury-based colleges to go this way, as

they have comps to fall on. As for us, we don’t have a local first XV competition.

Marc says the Nelson region needs two teams at this level, especially as Waimea is a growth area.

“If we don’t (make top 10), next year gives the 2023 team the task of winning the 2nd grade and getting promoted.”

Nelson College head coach Jono Phillips says they will be looking at how to expand their schedule for upcoming seasons following the announcement.

“A 10 team competition is only nine Waimea Combined captain Tony Sproul needs to inspire fixtures, but there’s opportunity for his men after going winless in their first five games. other inter-school events.”

Tasman Rugby Union to get slice of Silver Lake deal Community rugby is set to be the biggest benefactor when the funds from NZ Rugby’s much-vaunted Silver Lake deal trickle down to the provincial unions.

The Tasman Rugby Union will benefit by about $1m from the proposal, which cleared its final hurdle at board level last week.

The deal will see Silver Lake invest $200 million in a new com-

mercial entity that will control all revenue-generating assets of NZR. Thirty-seven million dollars has been put aside for a short-term investment in rugby, with provincial unions set to receive $20m - $14m of which will go the NPC unions and $6m to the Heartland unions. The Māori Rugby Board will receive $2m.

Tasman Rugby Union CEO Lyn-

don Bray was quick to point out that while the anticipated Silver Lake money was most welcome, it should not be viewed as a readymade answer to the challenges the union faced in the community rugby area.

“Money is one thing,” he added, “but it doesn’t actually resolve our core issues.

“What it will help us to do is po-

NEWSLINE UPDATES KEEPING YOU INFORMED ABOUT NEWS AND EVENTS IN THE TASMAN DISTRICT

15 JUNE 2022

Funding drop-in sessions Tasman District Council, the Department of Internal Affairs and the Rata Foundation are on the road and travelling to Motueka, Richmond, Murchison and Tākaka to support community organisations who are looking for funding.

A vision for a new safe and accessible transport system that will provide the platform for transforming the way we get around Tasman’s urban centres has become a reality.

If your community organisation needs funding and support, come along to:

After four years in the planning phase, and following months of consultation, public information sessions, submissions and hearings, our new Walking and Cycling Strategy has been adopted.

• Richmond Library: Thursday 23 June, 10.00 am – 12.00 pm

The strategy focuses on providing residents with safer choices about how they travel, by improving walking and cycling across the urban areas of Tasman and sets a framework for the creation of a high standard of connected cycle networks in those areas.

The strategy proposes: • Separated and protected on-road cycleways on key routes • Slow speed areas in our town centres • Some slow speed residential ‘neighbourhood greenway’ streets • Shared paths in some places • Safer crossings for pedestrians, particularly on busier roads and near schools.

Close to 250 submissions were received during the consultation process which led to a great deal of fine-tuning and amendments before the strategy was adopted by the Strategy and Policy Committee.

Targets within the strategy aim to get a much larger proportion of journeys to work and school by either walking or biking in the next 15 to 20 years. This will create a safer transport environment, improve the health and wellbeing of our residents, and help reduce congestion and carbon emissions.

This closely aligns with the Government’s recently released Emissions Reduction Plan.

With the adoption of the Walking and Cycling Strategy, we can look forward to an improved safer transport network, healthy communities, vibrant urban surroundings and a cleaner thriving environment.

Do you know a community superhero?

Not all superheroes wear capes, leap tall buildings in a single bound or catch flying bullets in their teeth!

Some superheroes are unassuming, quietly moving among us but working tirelessly in our Tasman communities. Some assist at sports clubs, volunteer in environmental groups or help with the administration of community organisations.

Every year our Outstanding Community Service Awards officially recognise and celebrate these special people who make our communities a better place to live.

If you know one of these unsung heroes who works quietly away with little recognition, please get in touch and nominate them for one of our Outstanding Community Service Awards.

Nominations are open now and close on 31 August with an awards ceremony planned for later in the year.

Please note, nominees must be residents of Tasman District and have been involved in a range of voluntary activities for 20 years or more.

Head to our website or one of our service centres to fill in an application form.

Visit tasman.govt.nz/community-awards.

APPROVED ROAD CLOSURE Applicant: Tasman District Council Event: Matariki on Queen Street Location: Sundial Square Road – from Queen Street to the Richmond Mall entrance closest to McGlashen Avenue (to allow access to mall carpark).

Date and time: Thursday 23 June 2022, 4.00 pm – 9.00 pm (alternative event date of Thursday 30 June 2022).

Matariki kicks off in Richmond Thursday 23 June, 5.00 pm, Sundial Square, Richmond.

We’re launching the first long Matariki weekend with a celebration of the stars in central Richmond.

Sundial Square will echo with waiata and kapa haka performances and be lit up by a fire dancing show.

Grab something to eat from one of the food trucks, be entertained by roving performers, be enchanted in the alley of glow in the dark stars or get your face painted and let it shine under the UV light.

Facelifts for Elizabeth and Talbot Streets Construction work to improve the intersection of Elizabeth and Talbot Streets in Richmond is due to get underway soon. This work was identified in last year’s Streets for People trial neighbourhood layouts.

The first phase of the job will be the construction of a raised concrete platform on Elizabeth Street, which means this part of the street will be closed to all traffic for about three weeks. Once the Elizabeth Street work is finished, work will begin on building a raised pedestrian crossing on Talbot Street. This is expected to take about a month which will mean that the nearby entrance to the Richmond Mall carpark will be closed for about a month.

Talbot Street will remain open but will be reduced to one lane with traffic management in place during the construction of the raised pedestrian crossing.

COUNCIL HUI At Orange, meetings will take place in person and via Zoom. Public forum presenters can speak in person if they wear a mask, follow one-metre distancing, and attend one at a time.

Visit tasman.govt.nz/meetings-calendar for details and the Zoom link.
