Seaview sauna consented

Mobile sauna operator Cameron Mackinnon recently gained consent from the Hibiscus and Bays Local Board to run his business in Ōrewa Reserve carpark after a process that has been going on since the end of last year (HM Feb 26).

A permit was initially declined, but Cameron went ahead anyway while continuing to seek consent, including gathering more than 500 signatures on an online petition.

Last month the news he had been waiting for came through, with approval to operate in Ōrewa Reserve carpark, near the surf club, initially on Thursdays, 4pm-7pm and Saturday and Sunday, 12 noon-6pm. Cameron is relieved and pleased to be able to run his business with a sea view, and thanks everyone who supported him.
