Did you know?

Silverstream Subdivision

Did you know there was a 4ft high tsunami in 1868 that forced the bar of the Waimakariri river mouth to move almost 2 kilometres north? The tsunami was caused by an 8.5 earthquake in Arica, then part of Peru 🌊⁠

Christchurch residents restricted to watering gardens on alternate days

Nicole Mathewson Reporter from The Press

The Christchurch City Council has imposed water restrictions to ensure there is enough water for firefighting, after residents used an average of 400 litres each on Wednesday.

Under level one restrictions, residents at odd-numbered addresses can use their hoses, sprinklers, and garden irrigation systems before 3pm or after 9pm on odd dates, with residents at even-numbered addresses doing so on even dates.

“Watering gardens and lawns using irrigation systems, hoses and sprinklers is the real challenge - washing the car using a bucket, using a watering can in the garden, or filling a small paddling pool, on any day, is fine under level one restrictions," head of three waters Helen Beaumont says.

Level two water restrictions were introduced last month in Akaroa, Duvauchelle and Takamatua on Banks Peninsula, as the streams that supply drinking water to those towns had been especially low.

Lynda McKenzie has spent 16 years creating an “eco-sanctuary” at her Christchurch social housing complex.

But now she is devastated that the council could destroy her refuge – and says she is happy she won’t be around to see it chopped back.

McKenzie, who is terminally ill, has planted numerous trees around the 24-unit St Albans complex over the years, and residents now regularly see fantails, bellbirds and wood pigeons in their garden.

But last week, the property’s 24 tenants received a letter from Christchurch City Council telling them it was starting work imminently to remove some trees and heavily prune others.

What do you think should happen to McKenzie's "eco-sanctuary"?

Elusion has noticed an increase over Christmas and the New Year of puppy nappings, break ins, prowlers and cars going missing, or packages being stolen from the driveway.

It has especially broken our heart seeing a young pup going missing from a dairy but with great community spirit, security footage of offender and the power of social media we see he is now at home in his rightful place.

More and more we have seen great footage of offenders shared online and also warnings to others.

Its is good reminder to everyone to always lock doors and windows, have good security lighting around your whole house, get to know your neighbors and contemplate security cameras.

While security cameras can be a slightly expensive option we can't recommend it enough if you have puppies, or tools stored in vehicles, or lots of packages coming and going like we do. We love having the added security of our whole business and property monitored even while we put our feet up for a weeks camping in Hanmer springs recently.


Feel free to contact us to talk about security cameras, outside lighting or any other electrical needs.
