Appeals of drainage assessments dismissed; Engineer's Report confirmed as consistent with the Drainage Act.
The appellants appealed the assessments and the Engineer's Report regarding the Luckins Drain West and Luckins Drain East.
The appellants argued that they derived negligible benefit from the drain and that the assessments were too high.
The Tribunal found that the principles applied by the Engineer to determine the Schedule of Assessments were consistent with the Drainage Act and generally accepted practice.
The Tribunal upheld the decision of the Court of Revision and confirmed the assessments set out in the Engineer's Report.
Liquor licence application denied as contrary to public interest due to historical neighbourhood disturbances.
The applicant applied for a liquor sales licence for a premises that had a history of causing significant disturbances in a residential neighbourhood.
The Registrar issued a Notice of Proposal to review the application after receiving objections.

The tribunal found that the applicant failed to present a meaningful plan to mitigate these concerns or ensure harmony with the neighbourhood, which included a newly constructed hospice.
The application was denied as it was not in the public interest under section 6(2)(h) of the Liquor Licence Act.
