Future Urban Land Supply Strategy

 

Resolution number MO/2015/139

MOVED by Chairperson L Sosene, seconded by Member CF O'Brien:  

That the Māngere-Ōtāhuhu Local Board advise the Auckland Development Committee and hearing panel on the Draft Urban Land Supply Strategy(DULSS) that the board:

 

a)            Requests that the draft strategy be amended to clearly state how the proposed expansion will be financed and in particular sharing of costs that ratepayers will be expected to fund versus those of developers, or alternate options for funding.

b)            Requests that a similar Urban Brownfield Strategy is developed for sequencing of development for “Brownfields” focussed on existing urban centres in Auckland, such as Ōtāhuhu. This could accommodate some of the projected population increase at a lesser infrastructure development cost and be in keeping with the Auckland Plan aspiration for a compact city and the boards area plan.

e)                  Requests that the draft strategy be amended to provide further detail about how the DULSS will address the critical issue of ‘affordable housing’.
