Pink Caddy 0 Posted September 20, 2010 Share Posted September 20, 2010 First we had a submission process relating to Mooring Management Areas (MMAs) around Rakino Island. It was proposed that Woody Bay and Home Bay have MMAs, and the Sandy Bay MMA be increased from 20 to 30 moorings. The outcome was no MMAs in Woody Bay or Home Bay, and the increase in Sandy Bay authorised. Then Ross & Inglis made application for a resource consent to legitimise their mooring in Woody Bay. This was accepted by ARC commissioners after a submissions and hearings process. AYBA and interested yachties working with GAPS (Gulf Anchorages Protection Society) felt that this decision was erroneous and appealed to the Environment Court, which accepted their appeal. The court decision can be read: http://cananz.org.nz/WoodyAppeal.pdf Now Ross and Inglis have appealed the Environment Court decision on points of law in the High Court. Their High Court Appeal notice is at: http://cananz.org.nz/AppealWoodyBay.pdf Link to post Share on other sites
