A move to free up more land for new builds is likely to see fewer driveways and garages in modern housing, in a move some say could have New Zealand looking like Coronation Street.
Councils across the country must scrap planning rules that require car parks to be put down near new housing or business developments, under newly released housing guidelines.
The change comes as the Government looks to encourage development, in part by freeing up land held up by car parks, under its new National Policy Statement for urban development.
Property developer Phil Robinson said scrapping car park rules was a “big change”, but he was unsure if it was a “big win”.
What do you think of having more new builds in your area with fewer driveways and garages?
“So I would say it’s possible I might have the most plants per square metre,” she quips.

Labour will make Matariki New Zealand's 12th public holiday from 2022 if re-elected, Jacinda Ardern has announced.
The new winter public holiday would fall at some point during the Matariki period, with an expectation that it would always happen on either a Monday or a Friday.
The policy announcement follows a series of public campaigns for Matariki, which acts as the Māori New Year, to be recognised.
We want to hear your thoughts about Matariki becoming a public holiday. Do you support the idea, or are you against it? Perhaps you have a counter proposal.
Share your thoughts here.

We’re looking into short, private lessons for a second language (open minded of which one) for our son. Is there anyone who offers this within Napier for children?

The elderly Napier man didn’t have a lot of transportation options after his car was stolen, so he took the lawnmower for a drive.
Local police officer Sophia Holloway came across Jane, 87, in early August after he was spotted driving his ride-on mower down the road. Jane told Stuff he was attempting to drive to the Napier Police Station to inform them about his stolen vehicle.
“Well I wasn’t going to walk there. So I took the mower as it was the only means of transport I had. I drove it on the road as it was much smoother compared to the footpath.”
After being spotted by Holloway he received assistance in reporting the theft to his insurance company. She also took him to the supermarket and referred him to Age Concern to get assistance with transport.
