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.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
