LAINE MOGER

Ministers Bill English and Nick Smith have officially announced the launch of stage two develop- ment plans to boost Northcote’s housing supply. English, the minister respon- sible for Housing New Zealand (HNZ), said the project would transform 300 existing HNZ properties in Northcote into about 1200 ‘‘warmer, drier and healthier homes’’ with a better mix of size and type. The five-year, $750 million) project would see the number of HNZ homes increase from 300 to 400 and a further 600-800 properties sold as a mix of affordable and market housing, English said. The development is being delivered by the Hobsonville Land Company (HLC), a wholly owned subsidiary of HNZ. Redevelopment of Northcote’s social houses has been long over- due, the minister acknowledged on Friday. One in every 16 homes is owned by the Government, Eng- lish said. ‘‘And you can tell which ones Minister Responsible for Housing New Zealand Bill English speaks to a local after Friday’s Northcote housing initiative announcement.
