At the applicant’s request, the hearing for this application has been deferred to enable the applicant to try to confirm the access route to the site of the proposed motorsport park.

The proposed access route crosses Crown owned land that is being held as part of a “land bank” that may be utilised in the settlement of Treaty of Waitangi claims. Future ownership of that land may be clarified over the next few months.

The extension of time is subject to the applicant advising Council by Monday 7 November 2010 whether the application can proceed to a hearing. If yes, then the hearing must commence by 27 February 2012.
