To re-iterate: The Range is Closed until further notice. We are doing everything possible to fight to keep the range, hence it is very disappointing to receive a complaint today that people were shooting there yesterday.
We wrote to Mayor Angus McKay today for a meeting to discuss Council assistance to either modify the buttstop or look for an alternative site to build a new range. We will keep you all informed. Further complaints on the range use is not helpful.
Another lock will go on the gate tonight. We have promised DoC we are doing all we can to stop anyone shooting there, what more can we do?
