Poll: Do you think enough is being done to support South Auckland projects?
Auckland Manukau Ward councillor Efeso Collins says news the supercity is facing a projected $1 billion hit to its revenue over the next three years is hard to take.
South Auckland was already hammered in this year’s Emergency Budget and funding for a number of projects, including the Ōtāhuhu Town Centre upgrade, the Auckland Council Manukau Hub and Transform Manukau were affected.
The council announced on Wednesday that the $450 million hit to revenue from Covid-19 that was projected this year could now snowball to nearly $1b by 2024.

Got more greens than you know what to do with? 🥦🌱🥕
Whether it’s a courgette takeover or a feijoa frenzy, don’t let those garden gems go to waste!
Our suggestion to you: Did you know you can grate and freeze excess courgettes to use in chocolate cake later? It sounds a bit dodgy, but it makes the cake incredibly moist ... and hey, it counts as a serving of veg, right? 🍫
