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.

Experienced and sheer disappointment with Christchurch City Councils provided services in Northcote, Christchurch.

Gary Neighbourly Lead from Northcote

It was a complete surprise to note a public walkway (which very few local residents use) has recently been completely dug up, re-surfaced with new gravel, tar sealed, with accompanying fences painted (by City Care) when a large dent in the nearby street has been left un-repaired for many years. … View moreIt was a complete surprise to note a public walkway (which very few local residents use) has recently been completely dug up, re-surfaced with new gravel, tar sealed, with accompanying fences painted (by City Care) when a large dent in the nearby street has been left un-repaired for many years. This totally unnecessary work will prove great expense to the Council (including to the ratepayers) as it was quite obvious (including clearly recognized by many shocked local Northcote residents) City Care dragged out this job for quite sometime
