Councillors vote to support Shelly Bay

Nicholas Boyack Reporter from Community News

Mayor Andy Foster has described the decision to support Shelly Bay as a "sad" day for the city.
Wellington City councillors have agreed to sell and lease land for the $500 million Shelly Bay development on the Miramar Peninsiula.
Wellington City councillors have given the green light to the controversial Shelly Bay redevelopment, voting 9-6 after an eight-hour-long marathon session in favour of allowing the project to proceed.
The decision is a major blow for Wellington mayor Andy Foster, who centred his election campaign last year on stopping the $500 million development on the Miramar Peninsula, and to the film mogul and local Sir Peter Jackson, who supported him.
