Auckland set for more housing on less land
 

Auckland's controversial new residential zoning maps released | Stuff.co.nz.

"The changes include:

* Zoning more of Mt Eden for Mixed Housing Urban, allowing intensified housing of up to three storeys;

* Reducing the amount of Single House zoning in Remuera;

* Allowing more intensification in parts of Takapuna's iconic seaward streets such as Minehaha Avenue;

* Changing the length of Lake Road between Takapuna and Belmont to Mixed Housing Urban;

* Changing almost all of Blockhouse Bay from Single House zone to Mixed Use Suburban, allowing a mix of housing styles and more density;

* Upzoning parts of New Lynn that are near the town centre and public transport to Mixed Housing Urban and the higher density Terrace Housing and Apartment zone;

* Making all of Pt Chevalier Mixed Use Suburban, and adding a new zone of Mixed Use Urban down the main arterial routes of Pt Chevalier Rd and Meola Rd;

* Changing half of the nearby suburb of Waterview from Mixed Use Suburban to the more intense Mixed Use Urban."
