Stadium Outcome A Win For Canterbury
The Canterbury Employers’ Chamber of Commerce welcomes the decision of Christchurch City Council to progress with the construction of the multi-use stadium.
"It is good to see that common sense has prevailed and we will get the stadium that we have been asking for," says Leeann Watson, Chief Executive of the Canterbury Employers’ Chamber of Commerce.
"This is great news for our city, our region and our credibility as a world-class city.
"We are pleased to see that the majority of councillors have voted in favour, and are disappointed in those who voted against.
"The business community is overwhelmingly supportive of constructing the stadium and we congratulate the Christchurch City Council for making the correct decision with the future of our city in mind."
