Michael RossCommunity groups in and around Wanaka are unhappy only one representative from each can attend focus groups on plans for Wanaka Airport. Community groups have the option of attending focus groups run by consulting firm MartinJenkins next week. However, the Otago Daily Times understands other focus groups will be held. Luggate Community Association chairman Graeme Perkins said he was disappointed in the one-representative rule. Albert Town Community Association chairman Jim Cowie echoed that sentiment and said he had ‘‘misgivings’’about being able to adequately represent his community.
