The Waikato Chamber of Commerce has hit out at concerns being raised by the regional council over a proposed $1 billion commercial and residential development for Sleepyhead in the town of Ohinewai. The bed manufacturer has plans for a facility and a 1100-home residential development, which would require a zoning change in the Waikato District Plan. Kathryn talks to Waikato Chamber of Commerce chief Don Good about why he feels the regional council’s stance is “anti-business”, and Waikato Regional Council chief Russ Rimmington about the council's concerns.
