Tom Logan, a senior lecturer in civil systems engineering at the University of Canterbury, is one of about 1000 people and organisations who have told the city council their views on Plan Change 14 (PC14), which aims to increase housing availability and affordability by cutting red tape.
A final round of submissions closed on Monday, with an independent hearings panel set to begin in October.
The plan change was triggered by new medium density rules set by central government in 2021, which called on large cities like Christchurch to allow up to three homes of three storeys each on most sections across the city.

Details: Condition: used
Description: I bought this about 18 months ago, and used it to digitise old family tapes. I did a few tapes, before the left channel stopped functioning. I think the problem is that the braided earth shielding has come disconnected. The only functions I used were PLAY, RWD, F FWD, and the tape speed setting. They all worked fine until the earth problem occurred. Other than that, I don’t know what functionality it has.
I had another recorder that I used to finish the job (see my listing for Sanyo MR-803 Tape Recorder)
From looking on the internet, it seems that it was made between 1971 to 1975.
Its speeds are: 1 7/8, 3 3/4, 7 1/2
One rubber foot missing.
Dimensions: W 365xH 350x D 230mm

• 1 gallon clear glass demi-john (4.54 litres)
• Use for primary fermentation
• Ensure that fermentation gases are allowed to escape through an airlock
• Do not pour very hot liquids into a cold demi-john or glass will crack
• Avoid temperatures below 4°C or above 40°C
• Suitable for standard 1 gallon rubber or cork bungs
I have use these for wine making in the past. I no longer have the bungs or airlocks but the jars are undamaged. I believe that they are British made.
I used these successfully for wine making in the past but don't do that any more. Sorry, I don't have the airlocks any more.

Talk of Christchurch stepping in to host the 2026 Commonwealth Games has rekindled memories of when the Garden City staged the event almost 50 years ago.
Mayor Phil Mauger says the tournament should be brought to Canterbury but other city leaders disagree - read the full story about that in The Press.
So what was the legacy of the tenth British Commonwealth Games, held in Christchurch from January 24 to February 2, 1974?
The tournament saw 1276 athletes from 38 countries take part in 121 medal events. They stayed in the student accommodation at University of Canterbury.
In June 1974, The Press published that the Christchurch City Council had blown its budget, with one of the largest contributors being the overspend on the QEII, which cost five times the initial $20,300 cost.
The final bill was $101,821 ($1.3m today).
However, the sports facility needed a major upgrade 26 years later after falling into disrepair.
Speaking in 1999, council staff said that the construction of the pool and stadium had been rushed to ensure completion for the Games.
“The low quality of finish, and lack of maintenance over the intervening years, had left the building in poor repair. Several health and safety risks had been identified,” The Press reported at the time.
In 2000, work began on the site’s $20.7 million revamp but just over a decade later, it was announced the whole QEII Park and complex would be demolished.
News reports in April 2012 confirmed the site would be knocked down, having been closed since the February 22 earthquake the year before.
A new facility - Taiora: QEII Recreation and Sport Centre - opened on part of the site in May 2018 at a cost of $38.6m.
Other Christchurch venues for the 1974 games included Cowles Stadium in Aranui and Woolston Working Men’s Club which staged the bowls' tournament.
The Town Hall hosted weightlifting and wrestling. Road cyclists raced around Cashmere, Beckenham and Huntsbury, and the shooting was split between West Melton, Yaldhurst and McLeans Island.
During the Games, New Zealand won a total of 35 medals (nine gold, eight silver and 18 bronze), compared to last year’s Commonwealth Games (Birmingham 2022) when Kiwi athletes brought home a medal haul of 49.
