A Wanaka community group is taking Queenstown Lakes District Council to the High Court
30 October 2019
Wanaka Stakeholders Group wants the Court to review the Council's decision to lease Wanaka Airport - to the Queenstown Airport Corporation.
Chair Michael Ross says the lease is a sale for all intents and purposes - which is both unlawful and unreasonable.
He says the Corporation now has the right to build and operate a jet-capable airport.
Ross says this was never disclosed to locals during consultations.
