Council Meeting

On the 25th June we presented our proposal to a full Waitakere City Council Meeting at the Council Chambers. We were received very warmly and were very happy to hear the encouraging remarks made by the Councilors and the Mayor.

Later on in the meeting they discussed the triangular piece of council owned land that we propose to turn into a Historic Village. They made this resolution regarding the piece of land:

4. Agree that before any decision is made on the future use of the land, or before
the land is declared surplus, that the presentation made by Jonathan Edmeades
in the Public Forum before the commencement of the Council meeting, be taken
into account and appropriate consultation with the community be undertaken.

We have also presented our proposal to the committee of the Hobsonville/West Harbour Residents and Ratepayers Association and the West Harbour Rotary Club. We have been very warmly received at each of these meetings and have enjoyed having the oppurtunity to present our idea to some of the local population.
