Support to return Kāpiti airport land to tangata whenua

Reporter Community News

Kāpiti Coast District councillors have passed a unanimous resolution supporting the call by the original owners of the Kāpiti Coast Airport land for the return of their ancestral land.

Mayor K Gurunathan said the resolution was passed following an impassioned plea to councillors by descendants of the original owners to back their call to the Crown to return the land to public ownership and to keep the airport operating.

The airport site in Paraparaumu is facing closure, with the possibility of 40 hectares being rezoned and developed for housing.
