An attempt to block a development at Shelly Bay on the Miramar Peninsula in Wellington has failed.
The High Court has dismissed an application for judicial review of the decision to grant a resource consent to the project, run by Ian Cassels of The Wellington Company.
A group of local businesses put forward the appeal saying the decision was unreasonable.
The arguments from Enterprise Miramar were to do with the impact on traffic and roading, disagreeing with the conclusions in the consent that the “adverse transportation effects of the development will be no more than minor” and that the requirements for “sufficient and appropriate roading infrastructure were satisfied”.
However, the court found in favour of the consent.
