It is the first time Auckland Council has publicly come out in opposition of Chinese-owned private waste firm Waste Management’s plans for a landfill, on land between Warkworth and Wellsford.
Key issues looked at in a newly released report included cultural values, the impact on freshwater and the surrounding ecosystem, sedimentation and air pollution, environmental and human health risks, traffic safety and the rural character of the area.
“The reporting officer is recommending, subject to contrary or additional information being received at the [resource consent] hearing, that the application be refused,” the report stated.
A resource consent hearing is due to begin at the Warkworth Town Hall at 9.30 am on November 9.

Glo Ramsay – Theta Healing & Change Catalyst
Venue; Community Hall, 2 Alnwick St (next door to Town Hall), Warkworth.
Open at 6.45pm for a 7pm start. $5 Koha – Harmony Circle is non-profit.
Glo will explain, and give a brief demo on ThetaHealing, showing how it can assist and enhance the creative manifesting power of your Mind, Body, Heart, Soul.
Glo’s connection to spirit, angels, and other celestial beings of light eventually guided her to a ThetaHealing practitioner for a healing 11 years ago, and she has never looked back.
Knowing immediately that she needed to discover more about this modality, she qualified as a certified practitioner of ThetaHealing and has since been in practise for over 10 years.
Her passion is helping people who are ready and willing to create positive change. From healing and clearing past trauma & pain, discovering their own inner gifts, setting goals & achieving the outcomes that they long to achieve in their own lives.
In addition to her skills with Thetahealing Glo has been clairvoyant and psychic for as long as she can remember and loves using Tarot or Oracle cards to bring clarity to the work she does.
And to top all that off she is also an author who has just published the first of 3 books in a series named #Shamebusters. Contact Glo on 027 363 8833.
Glo will be offering a FREE ONE HOUR Consultation to the winner of the free draw on the night!
