Reading this it's highly unlikely anything is going to change , plenty of money in the bank and with 75% of members required to vote to change, change seems very unlikely .

tripple alliance 1,025 Report post Posted August 20, 2022 The notice of the SGM first appeared on July 1 calling for a meeting on July 24. The meeting had since been rescheduled to 11am, August 21, at Levin Cosmopolitan Club. https://www.nzherald.co.nz/horowhenua-chronicle/news/levin-racing-club-to-consider-transferring-assets-and-joining-race/MFV5RSQPMVCZNCHXJ5UANCCFX4/# Decision day , interesting to see what happens , I suspect nothing which means the governments new laws and NZRs powers could be tested . Interesting times , this could have implications for many in the wider industry . He said the motivation for pursuing the relationship with RACE came from discussions with NZTR more than a year ago that the club could face the possibility of an enforced sale.

tripple alliance 1,025 Report post Posted August 23, 2022 Found this elsewhere , Special General meeting was - 24 votes to join RACE 36 against . Levin is a nice asset for NZR to go after , it will be interesting to see if Race and NZR just accept this or go after it but them. Avondale would be the next logical target for NZR , it could be Levin will be the template for Avondale which is valued in excess of $200 million .
