Use found for former school site
Yet _ another accommodation/restaurant complex is proposed for Ohakune. This time the proposed development is on the 3'A acre (1.3532 hectare) site of the former St Josephs School bounded by Mangawhero Terrace, Shannon Street and Miro Street in what was once traditionally the 'no-mans land' between Ohakune township and the Junction. The new motel complex is planned to accommodate 1 00 people in 35 units — the rooms to be a mix of self-
contained twin units and 4person bunkrooms with shared facilities. The complex would also contain a 50-seat restaurant. Application would be made for a Tourist House Licence (bar facilities for guests only). In addition to the motel complex, it is proposed to erect 12 chalets along the Miro Street frontage. These would be 2-bedroom units accommodating 6 persons. The Ohakune Borough Council have advised the developer to apply for a planning application.
