Thread: Kaimanawa Forest Park

Nah, I don't think he dodged the question.
The letter refers to Part Rangipo North 7C, which is the land most of the road is on, and is totally separate from the block called Rangipo North 7C. The name is a bit misleading, because Part 7C is not part of 7C.
He's basically saying the land the road is on (Part 7C) is currently Crown land but is to be given to the Lake Rotoaira Forest Trust in the near future, and he can't (or won't) change that.
