New greenfield land a welcome sight in Waimakariri

Nicole Mathewson Reporter from Northern Outlook

In a district suffering from a dearth of available bare land, Colliers is confident a 13.08-hectare greenfield site it is marketing in the Waimakariri District will have wide appeal.

Climbing population growth and accompanying development in Waimakariri has resulted in an acute shortage of greenfield industrial land, in particular suitable land with Business 2 zoning catering for the small to medium enterprises such as owner-occupiers.

Noel Gilchrist and Sam Staite, of Colliers, are marketing one of the few parcels to become available in the area. The 13.08ha site is on the corner of Todds and Fernside roads in Rangiora.

The property is for sale by deadline private treaty, closing October 28.

Poll: Have you ever been bullied?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

People associate bullying with children in schools, but it can actually stretch beyond childhood to workplaces or neighbourhoods.

This Friday is Pink Shirt Day, which began in Canada in 2007 when two students took a stand against homophobic bullying after a new student was harassed for wearing pink. People across the globe are now encouraged to wear pink on this day to take a stand against bullying and promote inclusivity.
