Beach Haven Liquor Application Meeting

John Gillon from John Gillon - Kaipatiki Local Board

It was good of SuperLiquor to hold a public meeting tonight on their application for a new liquor shop in Beach Haven. However it was very clear that the room did not support their proposal or any new liquor shops in the area.
This application has received 302 objections, which is very high compared to most applications. The Police, Medical Officer of Health, Kaipātiki Local Board and Shanan Halbert MP have also objected to it.
Unless the application is withdrawn due to the strong opposition to it, there will be a hearing next year, and it will be important for as many objectors to attend as possible.
