When the Wellington City Council granted resource consent for the Wellington Company’s huge luxury housing development on this site, it accepted the word of ‘experts’ Dr Roger Uys and Brent Tandy that ‘the adverse effects on little blue penguins/kororā will be avoided, and are likely to be less than minor’. As we now see, these views were demonstrably incorrect. penguins shelly-bay animals issues media Fri, 23 Sep 2022 00:00:00 GMT https://wellington.scoop.co.nz/?p=147645 Wellington Scoop 2022-09-23T00:00:00Z -41.2952851 174.8193465 Shelly Bay, Shelly Bay Road, Maupuia, Wellington, Wellington City, Wellington, 6011, New Zealand http://wellington.scoop.co.nz/?p=133063 Last week I attended another public meeting about the Draft Spatial Plan, this one organised by Inner City Wellington at St Peter’s on Willis Street.
