Stadium battle continues

07/07/2009 10:12:02

The legal battle over Dunedin's new stadium is continuing as another appeal goes to the High Court.

Queenstown property developer Basil Walker is appealing the High Court's ruling dismissing his argument that the Otago Regional Council had acted illegally in funding the stadium.

The Stop the Stadium group also has a hearing in the Court of Appeal next month, but the Carisbrook Stadium Trust is proceeding with construction of the project.

The Otago Regional Council contributed $37.5 million towards building the $197 million stadium.
