Living in Queenstown, the land of wealth and plenty, it seemed my tax money was not needed. The town kept on growing and my business kept on paying our tax. Where that money went I had no idea. Up north somewhere I presume. Even in the tough times, like the 1999 flood when the Queenstown CBD was out of action for months. When Al-Qaeda hit the twin towers in New York, bird flu struck Asia, an ash cloud hovered over the Southern Hemisphere, or when the world went into serious financial meltdown, I do not know any local business operator who put their hand out to the Helen Clark or John Key Governments. The Queenstown tourism industry just sucked it up and kept on paying our PAYE and income tax, GST, provisional and company tax. Where that tax money went was obviously not here in Queenstown. We did not complain and just got on with making this town successful. However it did grind my gears whenever a little rain fell, or did not fall, to see the “poor” farmers put out their hands for a Government handout. Primary industry is the backbone of the country we were told. If they felt the pain, we all would. That did not make me feel any better when at the height of the dairy riches a few years ago, my bid for a family home in Arrowtown was blown out of the water by a woollen jersey and gumboot wearing cow cocky from Southland with more dollars than sense. Conan Wilcox as Daddy Warbucks, Thea Erichsen as Annie and Emma Pullar as Grace Farrell in Showbiz QT’s production of ‘Annie’, running until Saturday at QT Memorial Centre. (Photo: Matt Wong Now the tide has turned. New Zealand has woken up and realised our future should not be built on farming alone but rather tourism. Yet years of neglect have left small towns like Queenstown ill prepared to cope despite generating millions in tax revenue. In the last week there have been some big announcements from our government that go some way towards plugging the hole in New Zealand’s tourism infrastructure. Most of it has been focused on tourism growth but at least some has been set aside for basic stuff like toilets. Far too little in my opinion and although government investment in more bike trails and the evolution of bungy jumping is welcome, there is not much point trying to achieve growth in tourism when the numbers we push through Queenstown now is not being matched with infrastructure to make the industry sustainable. I hope these government gestures towards the tourism industry are just the beginning of a significant investment in sustainable tourism. If not, then the drum will keep beating for the introduction of our own tax system so we can properly sort our infrastructure problems out ourselves.

The idea that by installing traffic lights at the Ballarat/Stanley Street junction it would ease congestion in the CBD is ludicrous. Traffic lights, by design, stop the traffic flow and already we are seeing a build up of traffic at a time when the town is relatively quiet. Roundabounds, on the other hand, are designed to keep the traffic flowing. The problem was not the roundabout but the busy pedestrian crossing next to it. Whenever a pedestrian stepped on to it all traffic stopped. Surely the solution is to deal with the pedestrians. A pedestrian footbridge in place of the crossing would allow the pedestrians to cross safely and the traffic to flow and would have cost a fraction of the price. If, as I suspect, the lights prove to be a disaster when the town fills up for the ski season, will the council act quickly to rectify the situation? I somehow doubt it. A Frustrated Driver The signals were developed with the full support of Queenstown Lakes District Council. As drivers become familiar with the signal operation, the Transport Agency will be able to optimise the light phasing, leading to more efficient operation of the intersection. So why not a pedestrian footbridge? A pedestrian footbridge was ruled out on several grounds - mainly impracticality. This route is used for overdimension vehicles (eg trucks carrying houses on trailers) which requires a significant clearance. There are also issues with accessibility for people with disabilities, cyclists, parents with buggies. The cost would be significantly more than the cost of the traffic signals. In the meantime, Queenstown drivers need to obey the traffic signals and put pedestrian safety first. The primary driver of this change was safety for pedestrians. I’ve been living in 3 different houses in the past 5 months, now renting a room in a 2 bedroom unit I’m sharing with a friend, but I’m still not allowed to host a friend overnight unless I pay the price of a hostel bed per night for my guest - in addition to my weekly rent. Since this is not acceptable for me to ask my friends or family to pay for their stay at my place, the only way I can afford to have friends and family visit me is to work another 10 hours per week (and I already work 60 hours). Since long before I came to New Zealand, I’ve heard from many people that Kiwis are really nice and helpful, which is probably the case in the rest of NZ, but Queenstown, being the self-proclaimed “tourist capital of No 72% Yes 28% Vote now! www.lwb.co.nz Is the government doing enough to support sustainable tourism? Parking Plan For Queenstown Airport? - 549 With all due respect 15 new spaces is hardly going to make a difference. The thought process that advances in public transport is going to make a difference is equally flawed, especially with the geographical constraints of the Wakatipu Basin... Queenstown itself is becoming a tawdry location. This is only enhanced when the first thing people see upon arrival is cars parked in a hodge podge manner along the main highway. I doubt that many other businesses in the Basin would be allowed such a cavalier attitude when it came to parking. Dan The Price Of Freedom? Once again, I will be talking about the accommodation problem in the Queenstown area. What’s bothering me today is the “no guest” policy in rental accommodation. I’ve been in Queenstown for 5 months and would like to stay long term but being from Europe, I expect friends and family to visit me once in a while. From my point of view, it’s expected that when people spend a lot of time and money to come and see you, the minimum you can do is host them for free during their stay as long as it’s not bothering the other flatmates (I don’t mind paying a bit more to cover the utility bills). But not in Queenstown. Are traffic lights going to help congestion in the CBD? FACEBOOK/WEBSITE COMMENTS Response from Tony Sizemore, Transport Planning Manager, NZ Transport Agency The traffic signals are primarily about safety for pedestrians following some concerning reports and a serious crash at the zebra pedestrian crossing nearly a year ago. An eightyear-old boy was struck by a car which seriously injured his leg. ASK ME New Zealand”, is giving a really poor image of the country in my opinion. Queenstown is one of the most beautiful places I’ve lived in, and the lack of workers here has given me an opportunity to stay with a sponsored work visa, but I don’t think I’m ready to give up my personal freedom to be able to live here. I suggest that something has to be done by the council to stop the abuse from the accommodation owners. To stop the rents from increasing uncontrollably. Punishment for the discrimination towards race, gender and work situation that occur daily when owners advertise for a room, and start a long term plan to build affordable accommodation units for workers. When my Tenancy Agreement says one of the Landlord’s responsibility is to “Allow the tenant quiet enjoyment of the room”, but also specify “no guest after midnight”, it looks like a legal issue to me. I’m opened to any advice or rental offer for a long term and affordable 2-3 bedroom unit. A Frustrated Queenstowner In Need Of A True Home Here is a suggestion... why dont they build an underground carpark on the lakeside area, between the school and the FAT. It is a grass park there at the moment, and nothing can be built above ground there because it is the aircraft approach zone. They could build a rather large underground carpark there without disturbing the grassy area above, they could have escalators etc, to the airport from there. PIEMAN The Death Of Adventure Tourism - 548 What we want and need is more Chinese people in the Queenstown area, especially as residents and investors. If we took advantage of Chinese investment and industrious, people especially the naysayers wouldn’t have to be whinging about lack of housing, infrastructure, shortage of visitor accommodation, because it all would have been taken care off quick smart.
