Auckland Council has established a collaborative process to determine the future of the city’s port.
A Port Future Study will consider economic, cultural, social and environmental costs and benefits of a range of options for the future longterm strategy of port development, including alternative port locations and reconfigurations.
Mayor Len Brown said a Consensus Working Group “must carefully provide the scope and direction for this complex piece of work, whilst maintaining a strong working relationship with the sector’s stakeholders.”
Rick Boven has been appointed to chair the group, which will make recommendations to the Auckland Council on the way forward.
