The land, according to a billboard at the near the The Wool and Naval College Roads, was due to sold via an online auction today (Tuesday) at 12pm.
The community activist opposed the sale because the land, in his opinion, has environmental importance.
Mr Grounds was stunned to learn that the land had been taken off the market last week and nobody had bothered to tell him or other concerned residents.
He thinks the matter has been poorly handled and more communication with the public needed.
The South Coast Register will be looking into the issue.
