For some time demand has exceed supply
So how about we tackle the demand-side as well.

Hard News: Housing: the Feudal Model, in reply to James Bremner,
a bit of growth on the fringes
if only it was a 'bit', not endless acres of sprawl we're talking. Auckland's Unitary Plan already includes other major centres across the region for intensification to focus around, not just in the downtown cbd.

The main Nimby got shut down swiftly and pointedly by Toderian at his presentation a few weeks ago.

Hard News: Housing: the Feudal Model, in reply to Socraates,
Some would say the local body politicians have gone back to the safe option as opposed to enabling a real cultural shift.
They have listened to the loud and organised current owners of detached coastal houses over also bringing the interests of future residents to the table as they are meant to. That lack of gumption is sad for all of us.
Seems they're pinning their hopes on being able to revise the Plan towards density in another decade, but frankly the electoral calculus won't be any better by then as our demographic bulge puts more power in the hands of older voters. Perhaps a culture change campaign could remind them all to think of what our city will be like for their grandchildren.
