Halswell locals defeated as new Bottle-O store approved
A new bottle store in the Christchurch suburb of Halswell has been approved despite the outcry of many locals.
Last year, a company owned by Richard and Wendy Gibbons and their son, Marc, applied to open Bottle-O Halswell at the new Oaks Centre in Ensign St.
The application drew 37 objectors including the Halswell Residents' Association, Southwest Baptist Church, Oaklands School's principal, and Lighthouse Preschool.
The Alcohol District Licensing Authority dismissed the appeal after a three-day hearing in July.
