New Kāinga Ora state housing development in Raumati/Paraparaumu
"The Paraparaumu Community Board has learnt that Kāinga Ora recently signed an agreement with Gibbons and Co. confirming their intention to purchase 26 two and three-bedroom homes at 112 Old Main Road Ramauti (Old SH1). The developer is responsible for managing all aspects of the consenting and construction process, including site preparation and delivery of the new homes.
The residences will consist of 15 two-bedroom and 11 three-bedroom homes, fully insulated, with carpets, curtains and double glazing. Each home will have a private, low-maintenance garden and two shared community gardens in the heart of the development. These new state homes are expected to be ready for local people and families to move into by late 2025.
Kāinga Ora has been working collaboratively with the developer Gibbons and Co. to ensure the homes will best meet the needs of the people and families who will live there and the community. "
We hope Kāinga Ora will stay to their word, with priority given to local people and families in need, above others relocated from outside our district.
While this development is in Ramuati, it falls under the Paraparaumu Community Board; thank you to the Raumati Community Board for sending over the information.
Our board and the Ramuati Community Board will continue to monitor this development.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
