About this listen

In this episode of In Your Neighbourhood Series, discover how two recent Government policies will drastically change the look and feel of New Zealand cities and their surroundings. We talk to Bridget Parham, Partner, and Wendy Embling, Senior Associate, both experienced RMA and Environment lawyers.

We delve into the Medium Density Residential Standards, which will result in much more densely populated cities with taller builds and smaller sections, and the National Policy Statement on Urban Development, which will stop urban creep. Learn how these changes might help solve New Zealand’s housing crisis, the controversy around these policies, and when we're likely to see building start under the new rules.

Listen to our recent episode to see how these policies will impact your neighbourhood.
