Save the Pool but delay the Cycleway until it is safe

Marco from Hornby

The City Council is currently reviewing its Annual Plan due to the effect of COVID and what savings can be made but we don’t believe they should take the easy option and make Hornby the scapegoat for all of Christchurch's COVID-19 savings, we have been overlooked for far too long, it is our turn now, please don't delay!

We have become aware that some of our Christchurch City Councilors are looking to delay, even shelve the South West Leisure Centre/Hornby Library complex but at the same time push ahead with the South Express Cycle way through Hornby

We believe the South West Leisure Centre/Hornby Library complex should go ahead. It will create jobs in its construction and create jobs in the future once completed and while we agree with having a cycle way, construction can’t start until such time as the safety concerns that Hornby Residents have with its current proposal are addressed – especially the safety issues around Waterloo Road.

What can we do as Hornby Residents? We are one strong community and together we can unite and fight for our facility and make sure our concerns are heard.

Response to regifting presents

Gordon from Halswell

My mind tends to wander:
I do not see any problem with regifting it back to the person who gave it, they obviously liked it. In fact, that might work out well as you buy the present you want, then gift it to someone you know who will gift it back.
Perfect, no decision needs to be made about Xmas presents
