Ministry of Transport

West Auckland Airport, Parakai has made an application to the Ministry of Transport to become an airport authority. The powers and responsibilities the Airport has under legislation will change should the application be granted. The Ministry of Transport would like to hear views from the community about this application through a public consultation process.

**Public meeting**
23 May, 7:30 pm,
Helensville War Memorial Hall
Light refreshments will be provided

Please RSVP to ParakaiAirport@transport.govt.nz by 16 May

West Auckland Airport has applied for airport authority status, as it plans to develop the airport, with the aim of attracting a commercial passenger-carrying airline. Part of this plan could include the development of a new, longer runway. It views airport authority status as an important step for future growth, allowing it greater ability to attract new investment for planned developments. We are inviting submissions on the proposal from West Auckland Airport, and you are also welcome to attend a public meeting on this application.
