The latter however is a common action as the push to increase property density or mitigate a growing rates problem. Are there hidden 3 Waters costs. How do this compare with existing costs?
See below for an example -
"Contributions related to wastewater or water supply are charged separately through Watercare Services Ltd. These are called Infrastructure Growth Charges (IGC). Similar to development contributions, these would be payable in situations where a new site connects to the publicly reticulated wastewater or water supply network, or similarly a new dwelling doing the same.
The IGC for the metropolitan area is $11,680 plus GST However if you are doing your development in more remote settlements or townships such as Wellsford or Helensville, the costs are considerably higher at $18,556 plus GST and $22,080 plus GST".
Do we need more bureauracy?

Directed by Julian Raphael the group will perform stirring and soulful songs of the sea, songs by New Zealand writers and some new arrangements of Lennon and McCartney classics. Koha appreciated.
If you push up property prices in one area others are likely to follow suit at the expense of home ownership in New Zealand which is already at a record low.
