Attention all karters and motorsport fans. Colin Dale Park KartSport Development Charitable Trust needs your help! As many of you will be aware this project has had a very long gestation, but the Trust is now in the final straight to get the lease signed. KartSport is the nursery for virtually all four-wheeled motorsport. This complex will be a huge boost for not only the Auckland region but also for KartSport and Motorsport nationally. The Auckland Council have agreed in principle to grant a lease to the Trust, but as the Park has now been transferred from the Otara/Papatoetoe local Ward to Parks, Events, Community and Arts (PACE) management, the matter is now open for public consultation. This is where we need your support! Please consider making a submission as the number of submissions received will determine the eventual decision and deliver a fantastic venue for everyone from grassroots karters to our international athletes. Submissions close at 11.55pm on 7 May 2021. Details below: Submissions can be made at https://akhaveyoursay.aucklandcouncil.govt.nz/colin-dale... We greatly appreciate your assistance, thank you!  |
