Christchurch Youth Hub gets consent to go ahead after agreement with neighbours
A long-fought stoush between inner-city Christchurch residents and a prominent youth advocate has come to an end, allowing a $25m wellbeing hub to go ahead.
Christchurch Youth Hub Trust and the Victoria Neighbourhood Association reached an agreement through an Environment Court mediation process, including measures such as a community liaison group, to mitigate against potential concerns raised by the residents’ group.
“We are absolutely thrilled with this wonderful news,” Youth Hub Trust chair Dame Sue Bagshaw said.
“This agreement means resource consent has now been achieved, enabling us to work together, hand in hand, to ensure that the Youth Hub delivers not only for the city’s young people in need, but also, importantly, the local neighbourhood.”
Hey Pet Owners!
Just a heads up that a certain large chain pet store at Linwood currently has a sale on some items.
However my husband was about to pay full price when he remembered the advert and showed the shop assistant the discount on his phone.
‘Oh ok’ she said ‘if you show us the brochure you can have it for sale price, otherwise full price!”
A bit underhanded in my opinion!
