This article was posted in the Australian news community (link on the Aussie zone instance and link on the NZ instance), but I was curious what Kiwis thought about the policy in Auckland, its expansion across the rest of Aotearoa, and the potential for it being rolled back after next month's election?
@Zagorath I see it up on our lemmy instance now. Most of the people in my life hate it because they hate change. It seems to be resulting in a lot of small compact houses with no room to park a car. As someone looking for houses atm I am seeing a lot of new medium density homes that are a direct result of this legislation and they are a blessing because the other houses are old and poorly designed.
Thanks, I've linked it now.
Yeah I've definitely seen my fair share of that same attitude over here too. Unfortunately even from our progressive politicians I really don't see much desire to make that sort of wide-sweeping change here, though there's a lot of support for it whenever I bring it up in online progressive spaces.
