Tarras community meets over proposed airport

From Morning Report, 7:55 am on 30 July 2020

It was standing room only as locals packed the Tarras Community Hall last night to hear about the town's potential as a flight destination.

The meeting was called less than a week after Christchurch Airport shocked the small rural Central Otago settlement by announcing it's been buying up land, hoping to build a jet-capable runway.

RNZ Otago-Southland reporter Timothy Brown was there and filed this report.
