## Resource

The Wairau Creek area on the North Shore is recovering from a devastating flood in 2023, with two lives lost and significant damage to over 250 homes. The Ngā Wairau flood resilience project is underway, focusing on stormwater capacity and park usage. The council is also maintaining stormwater systems and partnering with communities for flood knowledge and stream restoration. Over 160 Category three homes are being bought out, with plans for future land use ranging from flood mitigation to community spaces. Planning rules are being strengthened to restrict building in high-hazard zones. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
