Media release by Mayor Damon Thomas, in part:
Responding to allegations from the Mount Wellington Cable Car Company, the Lord Mayor said, “The information about the height of the proposed towers was not confidential. The Mount Wellington Cable Car Company had shown plans of a proposed 75 metre tower in a public presentation on 16 April 2014.”
Regarding the document as a whole:
The Lord Mayor further added that the Mount Wellington Cable Car Company provided a confidential ‘Backgrounder’ document in late April. However, on 13 May this year, Mr Bold went on a local radio station to announce the existence of the document, thereby legally waiving the requirement that the document and its content remain confidential.
Update 10/07/2014: Official media release now up.
