He was not sure whether they would achieve this goal as not all councillors were ready to make a decision.
For him, the question came down to whether they wanted to invest into a commercial asset or environmental projects.
Deputy chairman Rick Barker said if the council did not feel it was in a position to make a decision on Wednesday, he would not be opposed to delaying the vote.
"While next Wednesday is an important day, if we are not absolutely willing to make a decision that day, if people don't feel comfortable about it, we might just have to draw our breath."
Councillor Peter Beaven felt the council had gone through a really thorough process.
"A lot of people seem to think this is a rushed decision, but in fact we've been contemplating this for more than two years.
"I'm confident we'll be in a position to make a decision on Wednesday."
He said the key theme which came out of submissions was prioritising local participation if there was to be a partial sell down.
Councillor Fenton Wilson said as long as council were provided with all the information, he felt confident they could make a decision on Wednesday.
"With a little bit more information on the day, I think I can end up in a place where I can make a call."
Council received over 3000 written submissions, with 51 people speaking about their submission over three days of hearings.
The majority of written submissions supported a partial sell down, with spoken submissions supporting Hawke's Bay ownership.
The issue will be discussed on at the council's meeting at 10.15am on Wednesday.
