David Seymour: ACT Party leader on Auckland Council's changes for proposed housing densification
Published 3 months, 1 week ago
Description
ACT's leader is denying changes to Auckland's housing intensification rules might have 'backfired'.
The Government has ordered Auckland Council to reduce total capacity plans from 2 million homes to 1.6 million.
Councillors have now opted to zone less density in areas with poor public transport access and in outer suburbs.
David Seymour says this doesn't necessarily mean his central Epsom electorate will get the densification he was trying to avert.
"It's not as simple as - it's all going to be in your electorate, mate. It's going to be a long process, these plans won't be finalised until well into next year."
