Appleby Village Developments has applied for consent to build 18 more buildings and 138 car parking spaces on 3.47ha, with the aim of developing the complex into a "hub" for arts and crafts in the area.
However, a Tasman District Council report says consent should be declined because the net effects on the environment would be "adverse and more than minor".
