No matter what the future holds, Janice Wilson, who owns about 16ha on Dukes Rd with her husband Ray, is glad for an outcome.

"I'm absolutely fed up with the whole thing. We've been living life in suspension for the past two years," she said yesterday.

The industrial re-zoning was opposed by environmental group Plain Sense and Taieri Plain resident Brian Miller.
