No room for mediation in Matiatia marina case, says Judge

Environment Court Principal Judge L J Newhook said he had “no illusions” about the strength of the “full blown” opposition on the island to the proposal for a marina in Matiatia at Tuesday’s Court pre-hearing conference at the Ostend War Memorial Hall.
Early October has been set down for the Environment Court to hear the Waiheke Marina Ltd’s resource consent application for its 160-berth marina development at Matiatia.
On Tuesday, Judge Newhook kept the 100 local people filling the body of the hall and the bevy of top environmental barristers in a ripple of amusement for the three-hour pre-hearing.
