Housing
Saw this on Facebook from Damian Light. Sharing this for anyone in East Auckland who cares about how our neighbourhoods grow.
Auckland Council has released the draft plans for their new proposal for housing intensification.
This is in response to the legislation that has just passed through Parliament allowing Auckland one chance to replace Plan Change 78. The replacement has to enable the same capacity (2million homes) which is proposed to be more focused around town centres and rapid transport. This was the direction provided by the Governing Body (Mayor and Councillors), Local Boards haven't had any input until now.
Due to the exceptionally short timeframes required by Parliament, there won't be a full public consultation prior to notification (which must be by 10 October). Local Boards are expecting to have next week to respond and we'll confirm the plan for Howick Local Board on Thursday 21 August.
Now we have the maps, I'll do some analysis of the changes and what it might mean for our communities.
In the meantime, the agenda, maps and supporting materials are available here: infocouncil.aucklandcouncil.govt.nz...
