In each instance they assumed the containment of Christchurch and growth in undeveloped or underdeveloped areas of Christchurch. Major long-term growth however, would go elsewhere in (1) a single place, along the lines of Rolleston New Town, south or west of the city; (2) a limited number of larger settlements on the Canterbury Plains; (3) in a limited number of settlements to the north and south; or (4) in an arrangement of settlements over the authority’s region.
