Concrete

Jenny from Linwood

Thanks to those who suggested where I might find a firm to do some concreting for us. However even going to Buildercrack and contacting three companies each one who said they would arrange a quote tomorrow, I still have not had one visit to quote, Worse still I have now contacted about 12 companies… View moreThanks to those who suggested where I might find a firm to do some concreting for us. However even going to Buildercrack and contacting three companies each one who said they would arrange a quote tomorrow, I still have not had one visit to quote, Worse still I have now contacted about 12 companies in and around CH-Ch and cannot even get someone to come and look at the job. It appears that there is so much work on new subdivisions here that no-one is interested in the one off job s. I am really disappointed. It seems we will have to live with a "boxed and base course filled back yard for a long time to come. This is not the Christchurch I yearned to return to. If anyone has any suggestions for this elderly couple we would be very happy to hear them.

Christchurch city leaders have agreed to pour another $150 million into the Te Kaha stadium project budget – taking the total cost of the project to nearly $700m.

The Christchurch City Council met on Thursday to decide the fate of the beleaguered project.

After nearly six hours of discussion and debate, councillors voted 13-3 to increase the budget and push on with the project. The other options on the table were to pause the project and revaluate it, or they could have scrapped it altogether.

The three councillors who voted against pushing on were Melanie Coker, Sara Templeton and Celeste Donovan.
