The Christchurch City Council decided on Wednesday to ask Environment Minister Penny Simmonds to pause the $4.2 million independent hearings process, which is considering housing density rules imposed by the former Government.
Due to existing laws the council can not make the decision itself.
The intensification plan being considered allows three residential buildings of three storeys each to be built, without a resource consent, across vast parts of the city. It also allows for higher limits in main suburban centres.
The plan, which has garnered strong opposition from residents’ groups, provides enough space for housing for the next 150 years.
But the new Government has said it would make the density standards optional for councils.

It has a stand as well. Now the good news,,she's in a bit of ruff condition and keyboard lights up when powered but no sound when pressing on the keys. I think it's got its own speaker. might suit a electrical tech minded person to get going. Years ago, 25 plus, I replaced a burnt out resistor and got it going again for children to belt out there best silent night number, or 'od to joy. More pleasing than a recorder. It has a volume nob. It is a rather large unit, so takers will need some spare room. Also does any one know how to run/work lyric pad please.
I bought the app and loaded it on to my tablet and need a bit of help in running it. Thanks, in advance, so give me a call for more info. 021 295 0174.

In 1953 a London to Christchurch challenge was organised. The reward for first place (in what was then the world’s longest air race – of 19,756 kilometres) was mainly glory but also a Harewood Gold Cup, named after Christchurch Airport’s operating name in the 1950s.
Competing airlines, amongst the eight airlines, included the Netherlands’ KLM Royal Dutch Airlines Douglas DC-6A, on which Maria travelled. There was also a BEA Vicker Viscount 700 and the RNZAF’s Hadley Page Hastings.
