LAST WEEK about 50<br />
experts and submitters spoke<br />
to the five-day hearing on the<br />
controversial Plan Change 69<br />
application for Lincoln South.<br />
If the application was<br />
approved as is, it would see<br />
rural land rezoned for the<br />
proposed Carter Group 1700-<br />
plus home development.<br />
The majority of Lincoln<br />
residents have opposed the<br />
development.<br />
Now the developer has<br />
made amendments to the<br />
Outline Development Plan,<br />
aiming to allay a wide range<br />
of concerns, from transport<br />
and connectivity issues to<br />
ecological impact and climate<br />
change.<br />
On pages 7 & 8 we hear<br />
from submitters at the<br />
hearing, including market<br />
our people<br />

Smith, who says some of New<br />
Zealand’s finest agricultural<br />
soil would be lost if the<br />
application went ahead.<br />
Hearing Commissioner<br />
David Caldwell now has<br />
the challenge of working<br />
through all the submissions<br />
and evidence of experts<br />
as he considers his<br />
recommendation.<br />
