The Ministry for Culture and Heritage is pushing ahead with plans for the National Erebus Memorial to be at Parnell's Dove Myer-Robinson Park.
That's despite criticism from the Chief Ombudsman that the ministry should have consulted more widely, before forming its preference for a location.
Former Waitemata Local Board Member Sarah Trotman voted against the memorial.
She told Kate Hawkesby while it's a great result, the fight isn't over yet.
Trotman says the ministry has to realise its consultation has been defective and the site is tainted.
