Family Statement! Kāinga Ora Update for Bolton Street / Marlowe Road 19/06
Kia ora whānau, after the recent RNZ article on Kāinga Ora I have managed to track down some family members of Roy ‘Tarby’ Thompson. It was fantastic talking to them and hearing stories about the man including how he got his nickname (Tarby not Darby). They have sent me the attached statement to share with the community and media. I have put it together as a poster if you would like to save it and share around. It is clear the land was donated for pensioner housing and this should remain the case in the redevelopment.
Additionally I have received a phone call from the lawyers. They are still working on our case and are looking deeply into the sale of the land specifically. No word yet on resource consent and I have a meeting with the CEO of Kāinga Ora next week.
