Christchurch City Council

Gary Neighbourly Lead from Northcote

One of my friends has recently experienced a highly challenging situation within the Christchurch City Council which in turn has cost her a considerable expense. This was arising from a strong wind causing serious (major) damage to her motor vehicle when parked near to a road works (a Christchurch, street) signage. Although the Council staff have indicated having no liability for these types of incidents, believe have appropriate indemnity insurance to cover these particular (and often quite regular) accidents. Would be interesting to learn if anyone else has been confronted with a similar issue.

ANZAC REMEMBRANCE 🙏

Kay from Papanui

Ode of Remembrance
They shall grow not old,
as we that are left grow old;
Age shall not weary them,
nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun
and in the morning
We will remember them.
