We do not yet have confirmation of the hearing date, however we must assume that it will be commencing on Monday 5 May. As this is just 4 weeks away there is now a degree of urgency attached to this matter.
To obtain the best result for Meadowbank residents at the Hearing we believe it is necessary to obtain expert help and advice and therefore the preferred way forward for Action Meadowbank is to engage a planner to help us prepare the society’s presentation and to appear on our behalf at the Hearing.
If we are to follow this course of action it will cost approximately $10,000. We need your financial support to follow this through. Financial support can be in two ways:
1. A donation (in the form of a pledge at this stage)
2. Underwriting a portion of the cost to enable us to engage the planner while fundraising takes place. (As funds are raised from other sources, the extent to which any underwriting would be required will diminish. However, at this stage we do not have a clear idea of how successful fundraising initiatives will be.)
Please contact Mike Graham if you are able to help financially.
