People in the building industry in Golden
Bay say that delays in processing building
consents are disruptive.
In May of this year The GB Weekly
approached council for information. TDC’s
regulatory manager Adrian Humphries
explained in detail why some consents were
taking longer at that time than they should.
He cited staffing issues, the demand for
skilled consents officers in the Christchurch
rebuild, legislation changes, increased use of
non-standard building materials and designs,
and potential council liability if something
goes wrong. He also said that the poor quality
of consent applications submitted to council
was sometimes a factor.
Mr Humphries reported that, in the first
three months of 2014, council had taken
an average of 14 days to process consents,
and 90 per cent of consents received were
processed in the statutory timeframe of 20
working days.
“We are not satisfied with a 90 per cent
success rate, and 14 days is not an average
we are proud of. We will take what measures
we can to improve these figures,” added Mr
Humphries in May.
Things did not improve immediately,
however. In a July edition of the council’s
Newsline publication, TDC environment
and planning manager, Dennis Bush King,
Mr Humphries’ boss, apologised to anyone
affected by ongoing delays in the consenting
process, stating: “The month of June saw the
Tasman District Council’s performance in
processing building consents within statutory
timeframes fall to an all-time low of 64 per
cent.”
Mr Bush-King said a number of events
caused the delays. “We are still bedding
in our new electronic building-consent
processing system and there are technical and
process issues we are still working through.
We indicated it would take three months to
transition, which is meant to come to an end
on 30 July.”
Builder Dan Darwen was one of several people consulted for this article. Photo: Neil Wilson.
Other issues with support systems meant
that staff were not able to work as efficiently
as hoped. Mr Bush-King also identified some
staff gaps over the month of June that could
not be “backfilled with external assistance”.
Mr Bush-King said he hoped that the technical
and process issues would be sorted out
quickly. Processes were in place, he said,
to fill staff vacancies and to look at further
streamlining.
This week we asked Mr Bush-King and
Mr Humphries to provide an update on
whether the electronic process was delivering
efficiencies and whether council had been
able to solve its staffing challenges.
Meanwhile, builders and others in the
industry here say that delays in processing
consents are still making it difficult to
schedule work and manage staff. One
builder spoke about a client cancelling a
job because the application took so long to
process. Another described what he thought
were inexplicable delays in getting a building
consent for a house built with plans supplied
by a housing company.
“It was identical to one I had built nearby
just a few months ago. It’s used all over
the place without getting held up in the
consenting process. Nothing had changed
about the plans or specs but it still took
months to get the consent.”

As part of the Keeping New Zealand
Beautiful week some children from Takaka
Primary School took time out of their studies
to braved the elements on a rainy Thursday
to tidy up our Bay.
Two groups went to different places. A
small group tidied the road edges and ditches
from Village Milk to the Clifton intersection
and another larger group went out to the
Spit. All sorts of rubbish was collected from
drink cans, towels, food containers to mussel
buoys.
The children loved making a difference to
their special place in New Zealand and it was
an eyeopener to all that so much rubbish ends
up in our community.

building
consents
Continued from page 1
Builders and planners say that they carefully complete
their applications in great detail but they always get
requests for more information. This usually happens right
at the end of the 20-day processing period, they say.
Most of the people we spoke to support thorough
plan-checking. Some practitioners say that requests
for further information from plan-checkers are a useful
way of catching up with developments in materials and
regulations.
“Sometimes we think things tip over from being
thorough to being pedantic. That leads to more delay and
more expense. That’s when builders, planners, suppliers,
auxiliary tradespeople and customers get grumpy,” said
one source.
Neil Wilson
As The GB Weekly went to print this week, we
had not received any information from council about
improvements in processing building consent applications
or about how the 20-working-day standard is applied. We
will keep asking and we will keep you posted.

District nurses
Through your newspaper I would like to express my
admiration and my gratitude for the helpful, effective service
the nurses provide. For people who no longer drive, or who
for whatever reason stay at home, the visit of an unfailingly
cheerful, capable, gentle caregiver can be a big moment in
the day.
With all the present cutting back our government is doing,
it would be a bad day if any reduction in the work of this
team were to be allowed. More power to them, I say. They
are the greatest.
Philip Stocker
The dam
This week’s Newsline has the front page cover story
from Mayor Kempthorne regarding the Waimea Community
Dam.
I love the change to the title, by the wording “community
dam” and dropping the wording “Lee Valley Dam“. Mayor
Kempthorne, in this report, makes the statement “the project
will benefit you, to a greater or lesser extent depending on
where you live”.
This writer has tried to explore any benefits the thousands
of ratepayers living in Golden Bay, will gain by this dam. The
Mayor requests readers of this paper to educate him in any
benefits they can find. We certainly will have to contribute to
the costs created by this proposal, whether the dam proceeds
or not. Last week we shared the fact council is asking staff
to examine costs and reduce debt (closing the Collingwood
RRC as an example). Yeah right!

Since moving to Golden Bay four years ago I have been
impressed with the child friendliness of Bencarri Nature Park.
Respect to the originators and to the ones who’ve enhanced
the initial vision.
Now the baton’s been passed to a group of friends who’ve
re-opened the place as Wild Earth Nature Park & Café. My son
was delighted, again, to interact with animals big and small.
To observe them, touch and feed (some of) them.
A huge leap forward has been made with the quality and
variety of the food on offer in the extended café, especially
for children. Well worth checking out.
My understanding is that Wild Earth will be hosting social
and cultural events throughout the summer, including live
music.
What I heard on the opening day was beyond “mere”
entertainment. Songs that move the heart were brought by
the harmonious Mohua Sun, the sparkling Mud Wood, the
soulful Anahata Chanters and the ever-reaching Rootsystem.
Sweet music to my ears.
All people, but especially those with children, if you’re
contemplating a place to be or a place to meet, Wild Earth’s
gates are open. I was happy to walk through them. I did not
walk alone. And I’ll wander that way again.
Thank you, wonderful tribe.
Alan De Boeck
Wild Earth
I would like to publicly acknowledge and congratulate
the tribe at Wild Earth Nature Park & Café for a successful
opening weekend.
I have had the pleasure of working with the team (which
now feels like a family to me) over the winter in creating a
space that will inspire visitors both young and old for many
years to come. A great opportunity now exists for the wider
community of Golden Bay and abroad to experience a living
example of a healthy way of being in harmony with nature
and each other. I offer a challenge to all out there, go wild
and visit Wild Earth.

Takaka Primary School Show
Last Wednesday 24 September I attended a show put on
by pupils of Takaka Primary School. These children were the
Juniors, five- to six-year-olds. One girl in fact has just turned
five years old.
I cannot find words to describe their performances. They
were incredible, their work was faultless. My congratulations
to them and their teachers for an excellent show. Takaka
Primary can certainly “Stand Tall”.

Martin Potter: sailaway sur veyor
Martin Potter has had a
lifelong love of sailing.
He grew up inland at
Otematata, Otago, and family
holidays were outdoors,
tramping, climbing and
skiing, until a dinghy named
DAMP became a family
treasure. Martin’s Dad built
the dinghy and his Mum
stitched the sails. DAMP bore
the initials of each member
of the family: Doreen, Avon,
Martin and Philippa.
The Potter family sailed
DAMP for many years in
Central Otago and learnt the
basics of sailing by trial and
error.
“On the maiden voyage
we gybed, capsized with the
mast stuck in the mud. When
we all surfaced I saw Dad and
his friend emerge with their
smoking pipes sizzling with
water and their hats floating
away.”

across three years and three
continents. First he bought a
one-way ticket to Singapore

In Good Taste: The Slice of Life
The only thing I enjoy more than being in a warm kitchen,
cooking, is snuggling up in front of the fire reading about
cooking. Bleak cold days are perfect for either of these
activities, and your family can delight in the results. Except
maybe when there is just too much of it all.
My daughter, who loves sweet stuff as much as I do,
recently cried: “Mum...no more...PLEASE!” And I could see
her point. The tins, jars and cupboards were overflowing
with home baking of every kind. Our home (not to mention
our pants) would soon be bursting at the seams. Something
had to be done.
The answer of course is to invite a group of friends
around to help. Luckily, most of our nearest and dearest
still eat everything without complaint, happy just to enjoy
the togetherness around the table, which is just the way it
should be.
I had a very nice-looking “birdseed slice” in a local café’s
cabinet the other day, which I forswore for the brioche with
white chocolate and lemon curd that had just been removed
from the oven (OMG!). Later at home I looked online for a
recipe and found this, which looked very similar. Adapted
from the Ripe cookbook, it is everything a good snack bar
should be. A warning should go out to those wearing braces
on their teeth, though: the seeds are a bit of a problem!
Into a large bowl place
the seeds, oats and nuts. Add
the liquid and stir together.
Place mixture into a baking
paper-lined 24cm x 32cm
tray and smooth to flatten.
Cover with foil and bake
for 20 minutes. Remove the
foil and bake for a further
15 minutes, until golden.
Remove and cool before
cutting into bars.
~~~~~~~~~~
This next slice is originally
from the Pukeko Junction
Café in Amberley. It is very
bad (due to a huge amount
of butter and sugar) but ohso-very good (due to the
huge amount of butter and
sugar). Thankfully the recipe
makes enough so half can be
frozen, removing some of
the temptation. Fatal!
150g raisins
90g butter
½ cup of golden syrup
¼ cup of brown sugar
90g peanut butter
150g rolled oats
150g chopped nuts
150g sunflower seeds
150g pumpkin seeds
150g sesame seeds
Heat the oven to 170°C. Place the seeds and the nuts
on a flat baking tray and bake in the oven for 8-10 minutes,
until toasted. Cool.
Into a pot place the raisins, butter, syrup, sugar and peanut
butter. Melt together gently, stirring, until smooth.
Base
200g butter, softened
½ cup of brown sugar
1 tsp of vanilla extract
1 ½ cups of plain flour
2 tsp of baking powder

Heat the oven to 180°C. Beat the butter, sugar and vanilla
until light and creamy. Sift in the flour and baking powder
and mix well.
Press into a baking paper lined 24cm x 32cm tin. Bake for
20 minutes until golden.
Filling
125g butter
½ cup of golden syrup
1 ¼ cups of condensed milk
Topping
1 ½ cups of rolled oats
¾ cups chopped nuts
½ cup brown sugar
100g butter, melted
To make the filling, place the butter, syrup, and condensed
milk into a pot and heat, stirring until melted.
In a separate bowl mix the topping ingredients together.
Spread the caramel over the cooked base and sprinkle over
the topping. Bake for another 25 minutes until golden.
Remove from the oven, cool and chill for a few hours
before cutting and having a private sampling.
~~~~~~~~~~
This last recipe is quite delicious and healthy enough to
eat anytime.
Raspberry jam bars
1 cup of plain flour
1 cup of wholemeal flour
½ cup of wheatgerm
½ cup of brown sugar
1 teaspoon of cinnamon
pinch of salt
225g butter, softened
½ cup of rolled oats
1 cup of chopped nuts
¼ cup of brown sugar, extra
2 tablespoons of ground flax seed
1 cup of sugar-free raspberry jam
Into the food processor place the flours, wheatgerm,
first measure of sugar, cinnamon and salt. Add the butter,
reserving 2 tablespoons for later. Blend until the butter is
incorporated and the mix looks like breadcrumbs. Reserve
1¼ cups of mixture for the topping and press the rest into
a 24cm x 32cm slice tin lined with baking paper. Bake at
180°C for 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, return the reserved flour mixture to the
processor with the oats, nuts, flaxseed, second measure of
sugar and the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter. Pulse until
crumbly.

Nelson Arts Festival
brings Demolition
to the Bay
Captivating cabaret-comedy The Demolition of the
Century is coming to the Mussel Inn on Wednesday 22
October as part of the 20th Nelson Arts Festival.
In this new work, talented screenwriter, playwright and
novelist Duncan Sarkies (Two Little Boys, Scarfies, Flight
of the Conchords) and musician Joe Blossom (aka Sean
O’Brien) together re-create the world from Sarkies’ new
novel The Demolition of the Century.
Arts Festival Director Sophie Kelly says the hugely
entertaining transition of Demolition from book to stage
is achieved through a series of vignettes, delivered in an
inspired cabaret-style.
“Duncan Sarkies is such an engaging and funny
character – he truly understands the art of story-telling.
When he presented to a group of us at the performing arts
market in Wellington, we were completely transfixed and
just didn’t want it to end.
“I just know people in Golden Bay will really love this
show. The Mussel Inn is the perfect venue for it.”
Demolition presents the lives of two seemingly
disparate characters, Tom and Spud, whose disclosures
eventually lead to a shocking revelation. Like a fine
detective novel, we are led into the mystery by anti-hero
Tom Spotswood - a beaten up insurance investigator, who
returns to his former stomping-ground to solve a puzzle
that has haunted him for the past four years.
Upon his return, he is thrown into cold panic when he
is unable to find his young son or his ex-wife. All trace
of his family seems to have been carefully demolished,
while downtown another demolition occurs as Spud
obliterates another piece of collective history with his
wrecking ball.
Demolition is a fast-paced, darkly captivating
cabaret-comedy, which leaves you fully entertained and
tantalisingly close to solving a puzzle. As a follow-up,
you can read the novel for all of the answers and further
delights along the way.

show to give away. Email: [email protected]

Claire Rouault, concert pianist
When pianist Claire
Rouault plays Ravel’s Valses
Nobles et Sentimentales
at the Village Theatre this
month, her fingers will weave
a performance from the
musical thread that ties the
young artist to the century-old
composition.
While at the National
Superior Music Conservatory
of Paris, Claire was taught by
Jacques Rouvier, a student
of Vlado Perlemuter who,
in turn, studied Ravel’s
complete piano works with
the composer himself.
“There’s a direct lineage
from the composer to the
performance,” says JeanFrançois Robert, Claire’s
partner and manager for their
Piano on Tour enterprise.
Proving herself to be far
more than a Ravellian cipher,

extraordinary talent at
October’s concert, playing some of Bach’s earliest keyboard
suites, a selection of classic Chopin waltzes and a sensuous
sonata written by her favourite composer, Robert Schumann.
Jean- François believes the audience will be moved by the
carefully selected pieces. “The choice of music is extremely
beautiful.”
In addition to the traditional concert, Claire will also be
performing at the high school and the hospital. It’s part of
the project’s vision to bring world-class music, normally
associated with a metropolitan elite, to small communities
throughout New Zealand’s heartlands and to schools,
retirement homes, hospitals and prisons.
According to Jean François, the two extra Takaka
performances will feature a programme specifically tailored
to their audiences. “It’s beautiful classical music but also
very accessible, with small pieces that don’t require so much
concentration.” Though less demanding for the audience, the
music will still have the power to inspire. “We hope to trigger

some emotion and interest and open a door to classical music.
That’s what happened to Claire when she was young.”
He explains that hauling the $75,000 leviathan to the farflung regions of the country requires a great deal of care as
well as several pieces of bespoke kit. “We have a specially
converted insulated trailer with all the equipment to load,
including a ramp and electric winch.”
Despite the large investment, admission costs are kept
down with the help of donations to the project’s charitable
trust. The result is rock-bottom prices for high-quality concerts.
It’s a combination that Jean-François expects will appeal
strongly to local culture vultures.
“The demand in Golden Bay is just exceptional.”
Expect tickets to sell out quickly. Claire will perform at the
Village Theatre on Sunday 12 October at 5pm. Tickets: $20
($5 for children under 12) available from Unlimited Copies.
Additional concerts at GB hospital (13 October) and GBHS
(14 October).

Engagement on significance sought
The Tasman District Council is to adopt a Significance and Engagement Policy.
What is that you may ask?
Engagement is a responsibility the Council takes very seriously. Community input to decisions is
key to ensuring the views of residents and ratepayers are taken into account. Significance in this
context is about how the Council will assess the ’significance ‘ of its decisions in relation to the
effect they may have on people, assets, Council finances or the District as a whole. Once assessed
it will determine and guide the level of engagement the Council should invest in.
The Council already has separate policies for both significance and engagement however, recent
amendments to the Local Government Act have determined there should be one policy covering
both subjects.
The Council has taken the opportunity to review the policies as a result of the legislative change
and is looking for feedback prior to the policy’s adoption on 20 November 2014.
The Significance and Engagement policy and feedback forms can be found online at
www.tasman.govt.nz/feedback and in the Council’s service centres and libraries.
Feedback closes 4.00 pm, 30 October 2014.
