Enquiry
Reporter requested comment from Mayor Chadwick regarding plans provided by Kāinga Ora for the property at Ranolf St/Malfroy Road.
Response
From Rotorua Mayor Steve Chadwick:
More housing is exactly what our community needs. These are the first small steps but it’s heartening to see plans for a range of new, safe and healthy homes that will be suitable for local whānau.
We all agree that the solution to the crisis in Rotorua is more residential development. Housing is a key priority for this Council and we are working in collaboration with the Government and our Te Arawa partners to make that happen.
