A car is still lodged in a building on High St, Waimate, almost six months after it ploughed through it. It's been almost six months since a car crashed into a Waimate building becoming lodged in the debris, but the owners of the building are still waiting for the matter to be resolved and the car removed. "It's just a matter of getting building permits, insurance is going to give me a cash settlement. "They are going to fix the building, once they build a fence to hold the building up, they can pull the car out. Cooper said there were no statutory deadlines for the consent process and "council will continue to work with the building owner".
