City assets for sale at a roll of the dice

The meandering Avon River could be all yours, ducks and all. Or you could earn your fortune building a row of hotels on Hagley Park. Perhaps you’d rather take a chance at the casino, or buy up Christchurch Airport so you can park for free.

Hi Neighbours,
The meandering Avon River could be all yours, ducks and all. Or you could earn your fortune building a row of hotels on Hagley Park. Perhaps you’d rather take a chance at the casino, or buy up Christchurch Airport so you can park for free.

But this is not any asset sell-up the city council might be considering.
This is just for fun.

The well-known Christchurch spots are among those displayed on the city's very own colourful version of Monopoly, launched on Wednesday, in plenty of time for Christmas shopping.

Read the full story by reporter Liz McDonald here (subscription required) and tell us in the comments below if you agree with the Christchurch picks or what places you'd prefer to see on the board.

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

It's that spooky time of year and while there are some streets that welcome Halloween and set themselves up for trick or treating, there are other houses where you're more likely to get an earful than Halloween lollies. Do you think there's a place for Halloween in NZ?

No cash on buses from mid-2024

Christchurch public transport users will not be able to use cash on city buses and ferries from mid next year.

The move has prompted concerns about the impact on those who prefer to use cash, especially the elderly and homeless. The proposal also defies a survey that found three-quarters of public transport users believe cash is important.

However, ECan staff say cash handling is consistently raised by drivers, operators and unions as an issue for driver safety and wellbeing, and that it makes sense to take advantage of the roll-out of a new nationwide public transport card to rid the system of cash. The National Ticketing Solution will be introduced in Canterbury in mid-2024.

What do you think of our city's buses and ferries going cashless? Read reporter Keiller MacDuff's full story here (subscription required) and share your thoughts in the comments below.
