Christchurch City Council
Housing and planning
Local councils are responsible for land use planning under the Resource Management Act, which affects where and how new houses are constructed, as well as the design of cities and towns. In some areas, councils also provide housing to those who need it most.

Protect neighbourhood amenity value by opposing the government's housing intensification legislation.
With a goal of having 20,000 residents living within our central city by 2028, I favour enabling higher-density living in the central city.
Reduce the time it takes to issue building and resource consents. This is core role for council, and the status quo is unacceptable.
Support medium rise living, to prevent sprawl onto productive land, compensated by public green space, tree cover, habitat and gardens.
Increase availability of public housing and hostel accommodation for emergency situations using experience of existing providers.
Speed up the consent processes for quality, safe, environmentally friendly development.
