Scoop NZ: Hawea Store & Kitchen Owners Aren't Going Anywhere
Hāwea Store & Kitchen, Lake Hāwea
The Hāwea Store and Kitchen owners Hamish and Erica Mackay want to reassure the Hawea community that whatever the expansion of the Lake Hāwea commercial zone may entail, they are here to stay.
The couple have spent four years growing their business and are adamant that nothing has been “set in stone” regarding the fate of their grocery store and cafe - situated on the corner of Capell Avenue and Parry Crescent.
The Mackays have signed an ‘affected party approval’ consenting to a proposal by Lake Hāwea Holdings Ltd - owned by Wanaka businessman Matt Laming - which has submitted a resource consent application to the Queenstown Lakes District Council seeking to redevelop the Capell Avenue site for “a comprehensive complex of commercial, retail, office and visitor accommodation use”.
