Kaikohe and Districts Sportsville ground lease

We are seeking feedback on a proposal to grant a 30-year ground lease, comprised of three 10-year terms, to Kaikohe and Districts Sportsville Incorporated for the land at 36 Recreation Road, Kaikohe.

The lease covers both the newly opened Papa Hawaiiki indoor sporting facility at Lindvart Park, and the existing sporting facilities managed by Kaikohe & Districts Sportsville. Together, these facilities support a wide range of sports and community events.

Under the Reserves Act, the council must notify the public and seek feedback before making a decision.
