May, 2023 Developers behind Queenstowns Shotover Country are proposing20 more residential sections bounded by the Ladies Mile highway and the Stalker Road entranceways eastern side. Ahead of a May 15 resource consent hearing, senior consultant planner Liz Hislops recommending the application be refused. She says itd result in an unsympathetic pattern of development & resulting in significant effects on landscape character and visual amenity values when viewed from State Highway 6 (SH6). It also doesnt provide connectivity to the walking/cycling trail to the east, and an acceptable method of stormwater disposal hasnt been resolved. The National Public Health Service (Te Whatu Ora) suggests the development contribute to the local housing trust, provide affordable housing and prohibit short-term accommodation. The applicants planner has said theyll make a further contribution to the housing trust, but Hislop, in her report, says shes yet to see details about this so hasnt taken it into consideration. But she suggests some concerns could be addressed if at least two sections closest to SH6 are removed, and theres better trail alignment and an accept able stormwater disposal system.
