In May the Environment Court granted resource consent to develop the 186-berth marina, which would feature a floating car park.
But Save Kennedy Point spokesperson Sebastian Cassie said the wrong iwi group was consulted during the consenting process. The mandated authority for Ngāti Paoa is completely against the marina and a large part of the case for the applicant was that it had the support of tangata whenua.
The High Court appeal claims the Ngāti Paoa Trust Board, rather than the separate Ngāti Paoa Iwi Trust, is the legitimate Māori authority for the island.
