Hamish from

Update for our Valued and Loyal Customers -
We are excited to announce that we will be operating during Level 3 as of Wednesday the 1st of September and we are able to look after your vehicle for WOF inspections, servicing, repairs, tyres and more.

😷 Our commitment during Level 3 is to keep us all safe by using strict procedures when dealing with you and your vehicle.

😷 We will carry out all work in a safe and hygienic manner, by wearing fresh gloves, sanitizing your keys, using disposable car seat covers, spraying and wiping down any contact surfaces externally and internally with alcohol based antibacterial products - e.g. steering wheels, indicator/wiper/light stalks, buttons, handles (interior and exterior), gear lever, handbrake lever and more. This sanitization is done before any work is carried out, and also after work is completed, prior to returning the vehicle to you.

😷 If you have a WOF or service that is due or overdue we will be sending out reminders very soon so keep an eye on your email/sms message inbox 🧐

😷 Please follow posted instructions as you enter our workshop carpark

😷 Our WOF While You Wait service will continue, however our waiting room will be closed during Level 3 so you are invited to book the time that suits and go for a walk or pop home while we work on your vehicle.

😷 As our waiting room will be closed we can offer a pick up and delivery service if you are unable to drop off your vehicle. This service also includes our decontamination process on-site. Just mention you require this service when you book.

😷 We have a number of contactless payment options available including internet banking, payWave and GenoaPay. Eftpos is also available using a sanitized pad.

😷 For bookings or queries please contact us on 033135329 or autossrangiora@gmail.com.

Our emergency breakdown/recovery service is still operational through this time also.

Stay safe guys ❤️

‘Healthy’ response to Waimakariri’s Long Term Plan

Nicole Mathewson Reporter from The Press

By David Hill, Local Democracy Reporter

Waimakariri residents have had their say on the long-term plan (LTP) and given councillors plenty to consider.

A council spokesperson said ‘‘a healthy’’ 336 submissions have been received to the 2024-34 LTP, making 1670 submission points.

The council is due to hold hearings on the submissions on May 8, from 9.30am, in the Ruataniwha Kaiapoi Civic Centre and then in the Oxford Town Hall from 3pm.

A second day of hearings will be held in the council chambers in Rangiora the following day from 1pm.

The council has signalled a rates hike of 8.94% this year, which is thought to be the lowest proposed rates rise in Canterbury.

Mayor Dan Gordon said the council was feeling the effects of the cost of living crisis, while continuing to pay off its earthquake recovery and Mainpower Stadium loans.

The district’s population is projected to grow from about 70,000 to 82,075 by 2034, based on Stats NZ’s high growth scenario.

To support that growth, the council is proposing to spend around $693 million over the next 10 years.

Managing the natural environment, flood resilience, community facilities and transport infrastructure were being consulted on.

Key projects include the proposed Rangiora eastern link road, a draft natural environment strategy, the Rangiora Library extension and expansion plans for Mainpower Oval.

Once the hearings have concluded, the council will resume its LLT deliberations on May 21 and 22, before the final adoption in June.

Gas Supply

Sue from Swannanoa - Ohoka

Is there a good gas supplier in the Ohoka region? I have been with Rockgas for 7 years now but ordering or even talking to them has become impossible.
