    Editor Canterbury Rebuild Magazine

    Melinda Collins

    I punched rebuild into the Stuff search engine today;

    it wasnt a pretty sight.

    Christchurch rebuild: a city stalled, Christchurch rebuild hampered by

    government, Rebuild friction rises to surface and Is the sun setting on the

    rebuild? were my top options. Where did it all go wrong? It was all trucking

    along nicely at least thats what I thought. So when I was asked recently,

    as editor of Canterbury Rebuild Magazine, how do you think the rebuild is

    going? my reply was well, the numbers are looking good much to the

    shock of the enquirer. And I stand by that. Insurers involved in the

    Canterbury residential rebuild have settled almost 60 percent of all

    earthquake out of scope and over cap dwelling claims.

    The residential red zone an area four times the size of Hagley Park

    involved more than 7300 flat land properties. More than half of these homes

    have been removed and the vast majority of former homeowners have

    accepted the Crowns offer. And more than 53,000 home repairs have been

    completed under the EQC-managed Canterbury Home Repair Programme

    with Fletcher EQR thats two-thirds of the damaged homes EQC is

    responsible for. While some may accuse me of sticking my head in the sand,

    or the liquefaction so to speak, I choose to call it optimism. Theres certainly

    positive stories out there and I for one intend to continue hunting them out.

    Because, although a big chunk of our land is severely damaged, that

    doesnt mean we cant devise new and cooler ways to use it. Jump on our

    Facebook page www.facebook.com/CanterburyRebuildMagazine and tell us

    what you would like to see happen to the residential red zone.

    Youre out there living the rebuild and that means you can tell me more than

    a little old media release ever will.

    CanterburyRebuild

    The Isaac Theatre Royal cost $40

    million to restore, but for a city

    running increasingly short on physical

    heritage, we think the striking theatre

    was worth every penny. Its October

    completion cant come soon enough.

    In our May issue of Canterbury Rebuild

    Magazine we ran a column kindly

    supplied by CCDU Director Warwick

    Isaacs who mentioned the Te Papa

    tkaro/Avon River which holds great

    significance for Ngi Tahu and Te Ngi

    Thuriri Rnanga.

    Unfortunately our design program

    hadnt been designed to recognise the

    New Zealand use of macrons, causing

    this to appear in print as Te Ngai

    Taahuriri Rananga.

    We have put considerable time and

    effort into remediating this to ensure

    this never happens again. We apologise

    for any offence this has caused.

    In November 2012 the Energy

    Efficiency and Conservation Authority

    (EECA) introduced a standard so that

    luminaires (or light fittings) can be

    Energy Star rated. The standard is

    based on internationally recognised

    criteria. Only New Zealands most

    energy efficient products and

    appliances qualify for this Energy Star

    mark. Lighting Pacific was one of the

    first companies in the country to submit

    products for testing.

    The performance, energy efficiency

    and quality of luminaires can vary

    significantly from product to product, so

    potential purchasers are recommended

    to look out for the blue Energy Star

    mark when they are buying luminaries.

    These products are proven to offer

    superior light output and greater energy

    efficiency.

    The focus of Lighting Pacific is firmly

    on the supply of superior quality LED

    products. It is the exclusive New

    Zealand distributor of the following

    products - Halers H2 (EvoLED) LED

    downlights, Collingwood Lighting UK (a

    European leader in the development

    and manufacture of LED products),

    Colorstars (Tristar) Photon Star LED

    and Martec LED lights. Products sold by

    the company that now proudly carry the

    Energy Star rating, include Halers H2

    Pro-3000k, Martec Shadowline 14w and

    16w 3000k, Martec infinity 3000k and

    Martec Genesis 3000k. Lighting Pacific

    is committed to delivering leading lighting

    technologies, high quality LED lighting

    and associated products which meet the

    highest technical standards to ensure

    safety, reliability and value of money.

    Lighting Pacific has its base in

    Wellington, but also has a rep in

    Christchurch. He is Alec Smith and he

    can be contacted on 027 672 3106.

    Further information about Lighting

    Pacifics range and Energy Star rating

    criteria can be found at www.lpled.co.nz.

    electrical wholesalers - go to their Where

    ealth precinct to provide new

    Hresearch opportunities The citys new Health Precinct will boost New Zealands health workforce,

    provide new opportunities for cutting-

    edge research and enhance the link

    between education and health,

    according to the Precinct partners. A

    formal collaboration agreement has

    been signed between agencies

    developing key elements of the

    precinct, marking a significant step

    forward for the Anchor Project, CERA

    chief executive Roger Sutton says.

    We know that the attraction of

    investment and business, especially

    new national and international partners,

    (from left) Fiona Haynes, CPIT; Professor Harlene Hayne, Vice Chancellor Otago

    University, Roger Sutton, chief executive CERA, Dr Rod Carr, Vice Chancellor University

    of Canterbury, and David Meates, chief executive Canterbury District Health Board.

    Health precinct to provide new research

    opportunities

    is significantly dependent on the

    delivery of the collaborative research

    and education facilities, he says. We

    worked from a unique position of being

    able to consider all options, as if we

    had a blank canvas. From that we have

    worked steadily towards identifying

    what we all agree we want, towards

    what we can make happen.

    Representatives from CERA, the

    Canterbury District Health Board,

    University of Otago, University of

    Canterbury and CPIT are working

    together to develop the precinct, which

    will incorporate health services

    alongside state of the art research and

    teaching facilities.

    The changing face

    of construction companies

    Construction companies have had to

    raise their skill set quickly to a level

    not seen before in New Zealand in

    order to cope with post-quake issues. They

    have had to find solutions to problems,

    develop greater communication with

    designers and insurance companies and

    ensure a solid paper trail so that all those

    involved in a rebuild or repair are seamlessly

    in agreement.

    There is no argument that

    Canterburys build

    environment can be one of

    frustration for all involved and

    particularly home owners.

    Whyte Construction (est.

    1997) is one of the leading

    companies in our citys

    rebuild both commercially

    and domestically and

    managing director David Whyte admits the

    frustrations they experience daily. I could

    give numerous examples of problems we

    encounter on any job, he said waving his

    hand towards a series of jam-packed ring

    binders. We understand first-hand what

    homeowners and business owners are

    facing from insurance concerns to lengthy

    time delays.

    Its not mere lip-service when Whyte

    Construction say they understand the

    frustrations. The team of over a hundred

    highly skilled employees in the company

    have, over the past few years, progressively

    found solutions to every problem presented

    and honed their experience to

    a point where new clients can

    now take advantage of their

    extensive knowledge base in

    this unique situation the

    earthquakes have propelled us

    into.

    We are a solution based

    company, David explains. By

    embracing the latest

    technologies, materials and

    building techniques we can find solutions to

    just about any building issue.

    Whyte Construction has two dedicated

    teams working on commercial and domestic

    builds, rebuilds, fit outs and renovations.

    David explains that their domestic team

    enjoy working with homeowners the actual

    people who live in the homes. We like to

    develop a relationship with clients, respect

    what they had, and find solutions in

    repairing or rebuilding with a high level of

    quality control and attention to detail.

    Some advice the team offers homeowners

    facing negotiations is to focus on what you

    had, not the price - building costs are

    escalating. For this reason David also says,

    Be very informed, especially regarding the

    new codes for compliance, if you are

    tempted to take a cash settlement. For

    example, $800,000 may sound like a lot, but

    in 6-8 months time when a contractor can

    look at your project, prices will have moved

    and there will, no doubt, be unforeseen

    problems to resolve. Recent client Trevor

    Laplanche was highly impressed with the

    companys professionalism. The Whyte

    Construction crew that worked on my

    property were very professional and easy to

    talk to. I wanted to achieve a specific look

    and result and they achieved exactly what I

    had envisaged.

    From design and project management

    through to construction, Whyte Construction

    offers the full package.

    To find out more about Whyte

    Constructions capabilities and what they

    can do for you, find them on Facebook;

    phone (03) 348 0173 or visit the offices at 37

    Leslie Hills, Drive, Riccarton.

    Some advice the

    team offers

    homeowners facing

    negotiations is to

    focus on what you

    had, not the price -

    building costs are

    escalating.

    The construction industry in Canterbury has undergone enormous

    and rapid change of late. Building, repairs and renovations in our

    city are now never straight forward; there are always unforeseen

    concerns from land and engineering issues through to constraints

    of building and meeting the new Building Code.

    Increased financial services reflects

    ANZs Christchurch confidence

    NZ has the people and the

    Aculture; weve already got great staff who live in the communities we serve, says Rodney King, ANZs

    General Manager Southern Region for

    Retail and Business Banking.

    Now we have the facilities to offer

    those customers a more convenient

    and accessible service.

    With the 2012 merger with National

    Bank, the financial services group has

    the largest number of branches in the

    country. We have maintained our

    Papanui Road branch outside of the

    mall so we can offer a suitable

    premises for those who prefer to bank

    outside of a mall environment, King

    says.

    Together with our Northwood

    location we have three branches

    serving this side of the city.

    New Zealands largest bank and

    home loan provider, ANZ is now

    operating from 19 locations across the

    city. With that comes a genuine

    responsibility to help our customers

    become more successful. Were

    constantly looking for new ways to

    improve and grow for the benefit of our

    customers.

    ANZ Northlands features a 24/7 Smart

    ATM, which accepts deposits and

    cheques and an internet kiosk for

    customers to use whenever theyre in

    the branch. The smart technology is

    being actively rolled out across all the

    banks sites, but most importantly, it is

    upgradeable, allowing for additional

    functionality going forward.

    The mall location also offers several

    private meeting spaces and increased

    hours, including late nights and

    weekends. Its important for a bank to

    meet and reflect what our community

    seeks in demand, King says.

    Monday to Friday is becoming a

    thing of the past and theres a stronger

    need to be open later and in the

    weekends.

    With a strong team of 12, the

    Northlands ANZ team is friendly and

    positive. You can teach people

    banking, but its harder to teach a

    friendly, positive attitude and genuine

    desire to help so thats what we look for

    when were recruiting new team

    members.

    Additional sites are being planned for

    the future, including a new Rolleston

    branch and the bank is in a strong

    position going forward. We have

    A strong local brand, ANZ Bank has cemented its confidence in

    the future of Christchurch with the opening of a new branch at

    Northlands Mall, serving customers around Papanui to the

    Belfast suburbs.

    increased our investment into the Asian

    banking area and weve seen strong

    growth with new migrants moving in to

    the city.

    ANZ Northlands is open seven days a

    week, with late nights on Thursday and

    Friday until 7pm, 9am4.30pm on

    Saturdays and 10am-4pm on Sundays.

    The new branch was officially opened by Rodney King, ANZ General

    Manager Southern and Tom Gorman ANZ Northlands Branch Manager
