Some landlords and the Heart of the City retail promotion group had been due to mount a High Court challenge to the council’s project to make the retail strip more people-friendly and less of a traffic thoroughfare.

The council will complete the first section within weeks, and will strip out plastic sticks and concrete blocks put in place during 2020’s Covid-19 lockdown to widen footpaths and remove traffic lanes.

Opponents of the marina at Kennedy Point have vowed to continue their fight, even as construction at Pūtiki Bay gathers pace.

Hundreds packed the Ostend War Memorial Hall on Sunday, with Whaea Kathryn Ngapo​ opening with a statement that became the theme of the afternoon: “It ain’t over yet”.

The meeting closed a week when tensions flared at the beach occupation. On Thursday, police descended on the beach and three protesters were arrested.

Ngā uri o Ngāti Pāoa (descendents of Ngāti Pāoa) are the force behind the occupation and the 15,000-strong petition for Council and government to instigate a review of the consent.
