Thread: Kaimanawa Forest Park

It doesn't have to go anywhere near a court.
The Authorities are in agreement on ownership. The Crown owns the land and the road.
If the Trust cannot produce an agreement giving permission to build the gate, they must remove it.

I'd suggest putting it at the bottom of the hill, next to a map showing the local boundaries.

I agree with you about the trusts right to put a gate on crown land without the appropriate consent, but as I said, just because it is crown land that does not mean public access is guaranteed.
