Weather forecast for later in the week - Message from Civil Defence
Kia ora,
Neighbourhood Support received the message below from the Christchurch City Council.
Please check on neighbours who may appreciate assistance before the weather turns nasty.
Ngā mihi,
The Neighbourhood Support team
For your information, please see message below from our Civil Defence Controller:
We are expecting some bad weather later in the week, so we have just published the following story on Newsline:
newsline.ccc.govt.nz...
Residents are encouraged to prepare for rain and strong winds as Christchurch and Banks Peninsula catches the tail of cyclone Gabrielle from tomorrow.
Forecasts suggest the main rain period is expected Wednesday and Thursday with totals of 30 to 50 mm expected over the city during this time, 50 to 75 mm for west parts of Port Hills, and the highest totals of 100 to 150 mm for south parts of Banks Peninsula.
Strong winds are also expected to accompany the rain on Port Hills and Banks Peninsula, with wind gusts of 80 + km/h in some areas.
“We’re taking the usual precautions such as checking and clearing stormwater grates and making checks of our stormwater network ahead of the expected wet weather.
“We will have staff and contractors ready to respond to any issues that might arise,” Local Civil Defence Controller Mary Richardson says.
“If you know there are leaves blocking sumps or drains by your property, it would help us if you could remove them, and put them in your green wheelie bin.”
We will provide updated information as it comes to hand.
Kind regards,
Mary Richardson
Local Civil Defence Controller

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
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?

Dear Sir/Madam,
I am Clifford Jose, legal counsel to the late Mr. Robert Fitzpatrick, an American consultant formerly with Shell UK Ltd in London. Tragically, Mr. Fitzpatrick passed away in the EgyptAir Flight 990 crash on October 31, 1999.
Despite exhaustive efforts, we have been unable to locate any next of kin or ascertain the existence of a valid will. Consequently, I am reaching out to seek your assistance in this matter.
Please find attached further details for your review.
Thank you for your attention, and I look forward to your response.
Yours sincerely,
Barrister Clifford Jose
