The charge was one of many points discussed by the Christchurch City Council on Monday as it ratified and voted on final amendments to the city's 10-year budget, known formally as the long-term plan.
The council also decided not to decommission Wharenui Pool (though funding past 2022 remains unclear), and voted to give the Arts Centre a $5.5 million grant, keep the Riccarton bus lounge open, and retain the mobile library for now.
Although the council intended to start the excess water use charge next month, Cr Sara Templeton said no fines would be dished out the first year, to allow people to get used to the change.

Hi neighbours,
Canterbury’s “highest risk route” will be under the spotlight as the public are asked to give their views on the road’s current speed limits.

Canterbury’s “highest risk route” will be under the spotlight as the public are asked to give their views on the road’s current speed limits.
Between 2011 and 2020, 75 people were killed or suffered serious injuries on the road between Christchurch and Akaroa.
Waka Kotahi New Zealand Transport Agency (NZTA) is now seeking feedback from communities on the Banks Peninsula and Christchurch to hear their views on what the speed limits should be.
Do you think the speed should be reduced along SH 75/73?
People can provide feedback by visiting the NZTA website or emailing chchtoakaroaspeeds@nzta.govt.nz.
Drop-in sessions will also take place at:
Te Hapua Halswell Centre, July 1, 3–6pm
Little River School, July 6, 3–6pm
Tai Tapu Hotel, July 6, 10am–1pm
The Gaiety Hall, Akaroa, July 10, 11am–2pm
Good wet evening, everyone.
I have read about Black Ginger, that is used in Thailand, for the treatment of weak blood, in men. I tried Funky Pumpkin; never heard of this item. Also Ken's Mart in Sydenham with the same results. Does anyone know offhand where this can be sourced from?

Hi this black cat has been sleeping on our deck and trying to come in to the house. I’m not sure if it is male or female. I have managed to get it to the stage where it will come up to me.

I have managed to get it to the stage where it will come up to me. I have put on a paper collar to see if i can find owners but it is quickly removed by puss. I will take it to vets to see if it has a microchip. Just wanted to check if anyone recognises it. We are in Redcliffs.
Very nice to see new footpaths and gutters being done in the red zone. I don’t understand as there isn’t any houses there. Well done CCC. Our money you are wasting. I’m over this council.

The tacos have landed.
Taco Bell superfan Jessa Arcayera, 18, waited 90 minutes in line to get her hands on her favourite Taco Bell order: a beefy cheese burrito, crunchy taco wrap, cinnamon twists, fries and a Coke.
She was one of nearly 100 eager customers who donned taco shell hats and T-shirts outside the Taco Bell Eastgate store in Linwood, Christchurch – the South Island’s first – as they waited for the big purple bell to be rung and ribbon to be cut.
Would you queue to be first to order at the South Island's first Taco Bell?
