The Upper Whangateau Road property at the centre of a controversial resource consent application for a jetty on Omaha River was listed by Barfoot & Thompson on March 4 as a deadline sale, which closes on March 26.

In the listing it says, “There is a pending resource consent for boat ramp and jetty at your doorstep (to be handed to the new owner).”

Mahurangi Matters contacted the real estate agent acting on behalf of the seller to ask why the property had been put on the market with the resource consent still pending, but he declined to comment.

The resource consent application is for a 20.2-metre-long timber jetty connected to a 10-metre-long gangway and a floating pontoon to be built on a narrow branch of the Omaha River (MM, Dec 19).
