Quake-affected homeowners - Has the council done enough for you?

Reporter Northern Outlook

Hi neighbours - the Kaikōura District Council says it has gone the extra mile to help quake-affected homeowners, but some say it should have done more to ensure all of those affected could move on.

The council announced this week it would soon complete work on natural hazards issues for a handful of private properties across the district. The announcement follows the council's controversial agreement to move houses at Rakautara a few metres further away from the cliff face.

The plans to move the homes was labelled "ridiculous" by residents. Were you affected by the quake? Has the council done enough for you?
