Picnic area for spa site

Nicole Mathewson Reporter from Northern Outlook

Shake out the picnic blanket, cut the sammies and get baking some muffins.

The Hurunui District Council has agreed to lease a small section of the Queen Mary Historic Hospital Reserve to the Hanmer Springs Thermal Pools and Spa as a picnic area.

The plan is to use this space for a picnic area in coordination with the new attractions going in at the pools and the expected increase in visitors.

"We believe the new cascade pools and Conical Thrill ride will increase our patronage this summer and are very pleased that we will have additional land to accommodate everyone comfortably," Hanmer Springs Thermal Pools and Spa general manager Graeme Abbot says.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.

When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
