Description:

The Government has fast-tracked the development of 700 homes in the Napier region, which has elicited confusion.

This Napier region is set on a flood plain, and has been fast-tracked by the Government because of the hundreds of jobs it could bring to the area.

Despite this, Hawke's Bay regional councillor Neil Kirton is scratching his head over this choice

Neil Kirton explained that floods are a consist problem within the subdivision, and that this choice is a disaster waiting to happen, and that the housing should be set on the nearby hills or a safer location.
