Proposed Sale of the Mt Wellington Community Assets

Allyson from Panmure

On July 24th 2024 the Mount Wellington Licensing Trust trustees advised the community that they had voted to sell the assets controlled by the Mount Wellington Trust Hotels Ltd and to restructure the Mount Wellington Licensing Trust into a community trust.

The MWLT Board members did not at any time seek a mandate from the community it serves to either sell these assets or convert the Licensing Trust into a Community Trust using the proceeds of such a sale.

The Mount Wellington Licensing Trust controls the Mount Wellington Trust Hotels Ltd who managed the Panmure Historic Hotel and Waipuna Hotel and Conference Centre.


There is an online petition asking for a halt to the sales process and for the Mount Wellington Licensing Trust to consult and gain a mandate from the community beneficiaries.

The online petition link: www.petitions.net...

The Mount Wellington Licensing Trust area covers, Mount Wellington, Panmure, Tamaki, and part of Stonefields, and Otahuhu. If you live in the area this is your opportunity to have a say on what happens to your community assets and trust.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
