Plan for 850 Ohoka homes gets thumbs down

Nicole Mathewson Reporter from Northern Outlook

Plans for a 850-home development with shops and a public square at Ohoka north of Christchurch have been rejected by hearing commissioners.

In recommending against the project from developers the Carter Group, the independent commissioners also criticised Waimakariri District Council’s failure to make more provision for new housing growth.

Councillors will consider the recommendation and decide whether to allow the development at a meeting on Tuesday. The council was among the groups and individuals who made submissions opposing the project.
