The forum will address Waiheke’s housing crisis and encourage locals to submit ideas and solutions to the Draft Area Plan. This is a 30 year vision to help shape the future of Waiheke and will inform a process to bring the islands fully within the scope of the Auckland Unitary Plan which provides the overall policy framework and rule book for development in Auckland.

Ian Burrows – Hauraki Gulf Conservation Trust
Wendy Baverstock – Isleland Planning

The panel will start the session covering issues such as affordable housing, intensification, tiny houses, co-housing, senior housing, minor dwellings and balancing the need for housing with protection of the environment.
