Unpacking the Auckland Unitary Plan.
As the final appeal period of the Auckland Unitary Plan looms near, the need for education on the future growth of
Auckland increases. As an expert in the field of resource consents and town planning, Mt Hobson Group’s managing
director, Hamish Firth, is sharing his knowledge with the Auckland Property Investors Association.
Speaking tonight at Keith Hay Homes in Drury, Firth will provide a digest on what exactly the Unitary Plan means for
people as citizens of Auckland and also as property investors. Firth will be looking past the politics and the literary
clutter to provide a clear, concise translation of our cities blue print plan, and also provide an insight into the
opportunities that will arise.
As the average house price in Auckland looks set to reach one million dollars, the Unitary Plan will be a crucial tool
in making housing affordable, but also making housing more innovative. The freeing up of land for higher intensity
housing will be the first step towards easing our housing woes.
“The Unitary Plan has opened up development opportunities across Auckland and it’s the beginning of what is a very
exciting time for a planned approach to Auckland’s growth”, says Firth.
The Unitary Plan is a document that has the foresight to accommodate Auckland city’s population growth. Finally,
Auckland can plan ahead as a united city.
