Napier's long social housing waitlist
Will the Government's latest announcement on housing make any difference in Napier?
Napier Mayor Kirsten Wise has welcomed the latest Government announcement outlining their steps to tackle the housing crisis.
But her city has the biggest housing wait list, by capita, in the country, so words need to lead to work, she says.
Wise said the housing shortage affected the entire Hawke’s Bay region.
“I look forward to a closer working partnership with the Government and other local agencies to make a positive impact for our community," she said.
