Roughan being an arse again, I'm guessing?
Meanwhile, the Herald's radio arm has interviewed a CDHB board member and the Minister (who frankly does not seem to know what his ministry have been up to).

Press editorial doesn't mince words.

Or do you have blind support for developers, who are responsible for many failed developments in the past, to do a better job in the future?
Not without strong regulation and assertive partnerships with council staff at the right level. Wideboy property developers interacting with junior planning clerks will never produce sustainable results.

Yeah that's about enough arguing over a photo caption. Believe whatever you want and we will let other readers make up their minds what it means.

Why can't the government sort this out?
Because they are incompetent and ideological, and they keep getting re-elected despite that.

a photo of two level suburban homes
Most of that row have clearly visible garages beneath them. They are also in one of the surprisingly densest residential parts of Auckland - Ponsonby, Freemans Bay, etc.

He writes that these changes are just minimal and that opponents consider two storey houses “high rises”.
He says no such thing. Cr Walker and the coastal nimbys have been calling 3 storeys "high rise". A tiny part of the region will be zoned for buildings any higher than 3.
Some perspective from Matt's article:
Overall the changes weren’t all that much. Those that did move generally only changed by a small amount and combined 78% of all residential areas were still limited to two storeys while a further 17% was limited to three storeys.
You are most welcome to express an opinion but please stick to actual facts when you use them.
