Revoke the resource consent for the "Wellywood"sign planned for the Miramar Cutting hill

Petition details

Resource consent was given to Wellington Airport to erect a "Wellywood" sign in June/July. This will be visible when planes are landing in Wellington and we think that it is an unsightly plan that will destroy the cultural uniqueness of Wellington.
