Housing a hot topic for Wellingtonians
Wellington's draft housing plan has attracted more than 2900 submissions.
The city’s draft plan aims to make room for 50,000 to 80,000 more people and forecasts a shortage of about 12,000 homes.
How to build more houses and how to protect special character areas has proved controversial.
Wellington City Council staff are collating and analysing the submissions, which will be used to help make decisions on the Spatial Plan and will be taken to Wellington City Council in March.
What measures do you favour to increase housing in Wellington?
