Papakura hall space not needed as council asset

Papakura Local Board has declined turning the Senior Citizen’s Hall in East Street into an Auckland Council asset, Auckland Council reveals. The decision comes after a recommendation to the council’s Parks, Arts, Community and Events Committee that the hall’s transfer not go ahead. The board’s decision means it is more likely the hall will be sold, with the proceeds made available for distribution to benefit older people living in Papakura.
