Hard News: So what now?, in reply to Bart Janssen,
Slightly hyperbolic, they've only withdrawn the Out of Scope changes as I understand it, everything else stands and the Council will still be represented at the IHP
-
In that case, what happened to Canterbury will happen to Auckland. Government will appoint commissioners to oversee the plan and then the intensification happens anyway.
Possibly, but that's not exactly a vote winner for them is it? I'd say the Unitary Plan process will get extended by at least 12 months, apparently there is provision in the legislation for an extension.
They'll also probably push the line of "Auckland has rejected going up so they must go out" and yes, I'm aware of the associated infrastructure costs with that approach.

Also specific mention in the 5 options presented to Councillors of the Housing NZ submission.

Looking more and more like the revised plan and the out of scope changes were done to address the Housing NZ submission for spot re-zoning all over the place.
No mention of the IHP directing the Council to intensify more at all from John Duguid

Tweet from Penny Hulse last night
@BenRoss_AKL Commissioners r not The issue. Govt submissions from HNZ v bullish and request huge up zoning. We will be cut out of discussion
It would interesting for someone with the skills and time to overlay the Blue Out of Zone changes with a map of all the spot re-zoning requests from HNZ.
-
Also the next tweet from Hulse where she blames the whole thing on the HNZ submission requesting massive upzoning.

Many of them are Boomers thinking they are protecting their Millennial's inheritances.

Yes, my sense is Kindergarden aspect will be incidental in the end thoigh, it certainly won't have the vibe of the old one that's for sure. Wonder what's happening with the old building on the existing site.
Heard claims that will it will be a $6m facility.

Yes, the young guy in basing his decision that the new zoning rules are not a threat he seems to be referring to the MHU from the Notified version of the plan, not the revised December 2015 version.
The 1200m2 has been revised to no density limits for MHU and to describe the development controls as "stringent" is a bit of a stretch.
Marc C has outlined the issues above, I won't repeat.

I don't think there are any garages in the Six Sisters, they have parking pads out the front and a little storage underneath. They are not 3 storey homes.
