Waimakariri District Council earmarks land for lifestyle blocks near four rural towns
Four rural areas in Waimakariri have been earmarked for residential growth as the district's population continues to increase.
Swannanoa, Oxford, Ashley/Loburn and Gressons Rd, near Waikuku, are the areas likely to get more rural residential development - or lifestyle blocks - and subsequent rezoning in the proposed district plan, which will be publicly notified from mid-2020.
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
