Hobsonville Land Company Hearings

This week the Hearings are being held for the resource consent application made by the Hobsonville Land Company to develop the first stage of the former Hobsonville Air Base development according to their Comprehensive Development Plan (CDP). The hearings are being conducted until Thursday and so far have been held at the Trusts Stadium, Waitakere City but we understand that later in the hearing the commissioners will conduct a tour of the site.

Included in the CDP plans is the triangle we propose to turn into a historic village. They are proposing to build twenty houses on this small piece of land. Earlier in the planning stages they were proposing to build fifty houses on the triangle.

It has been interesting to hear what the devlopers have to say in relation to their proposal and to hear some of the submitters have their say on this issue.
