According to yesterday’s Press, Dave Henderson, developer of the two billion dollar Five Mile village project near Queenstown has been refused permission for another development at nearby Gibbston.
The proposed development which includes a hundred million dollar boutique hotel and Anthem Village, has been declined by independent planning commissioner Trevor Shiels.
Shiels contends that the project’s “high visibility” and its placement on a ridgeline “probably created an insuperable difficulty“.
Not for Dave Henderson I’m thinking.
