Oodie for sale

Linda from Northwood

Unfortunately I am not big enough for this gorgeous Oodie!
It looks great, feels so warm but I find it overwhelming as I am only short!
It is blue with grey/white koalas on it. It’s only been worn twice, so very warm.
Like new but priced as second hand!

Price: $60

The Christchurch City Council has approved changes to reduce speed limits from 50kph to 40kph on 28 streets in Shirley and nine streets on and around Scarborough Hill.

“The feedback we received during consultation showed good support for these changes with a number of residents saying they already travel below the current speed limit," council transport operations manager Stephen Wright said.

“Implementing these changes will better reflect the street environment and help people unfamiliar with these areas to understand the safe and appropriate speed to travel.”

Speeds in Shirley would be monitored to see if further traffic calming measures were needed.

From reporter Steven Walton:
What will Greater Christchurch look like when one million people live here? Where will the big roads be, where will all the housing be built?

These are the questions that fall to a committee of Canterbury mayors, Ngāi Tahu, and transport authorities. Now it is set to be bolstered, with Housing Minister Megan Woods and Local Government Minister Nanaia Mahuta getting a seat at the table.

The Government is teaming up with local authorities to plan what Greater Christchurch, the area covering Waimakariri, Christchurch City, and Selwyn, will look like in 30 years time.

Called Whakawhanake Kāinga (Urban Growth Partnership) Committee, it will be tasked with determining how the region can grow sustainably – ensuring that as the population increases, carbon emissions and house prices head the other way.

The first meeting will be on May 13. Continue reading here.

Chch dark(er) sky

On Monday night I setup a camera to capture a night sky scene, and the attached photo is the result - it is the Great Nebula in Carina. Captured from my home in Mairehau I've not been able to capture this much detail of the night sky above Chch before, so it's awesome to see. As the last remaining stretches of road with those horrid sodium lamps receive new LED lights I believe the light pollution will drop even further - currently where I live in Mairehau has seen a 25-30% drop in artificial light luminance since 2018, a fantastic result - credit to CCC for deciding to upgrade the street lighting.
