Poll: Do you think this block should be overturned?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

State housing provider Kāinga Ora wants a court to overturn planning restrictions that prevent the building of multi-storey state homes in heritage housing areas like Hamilton East.

Currently development in those zones is restricted by Hamilton City Council’s controversial Plan Change 9.

Poll: Would a new supermarket help NZ?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Nicola Willis will this weekend announce decisions taken by Cabinet to incentivise and encourage a third supermarket player alongside FoodStuffs and Progressive (Woolworths).

Do you think having a third supermarket chain will bring competition and lower grocery prices, or will the existing giants still dominate?
