Poll: Is $12m for a hardship fund for businesses affected by CRL a good use of taxpayer money?

Danielle Clent Reporter from Central Leader

A hardship fund costing Auckland ratepayers $12 million is to be set up for businesses that have been negatively affected by the construction of the City Rail Link.

The fund was announced by Transport Minister Michael Wood and mayor Phil Goff on Friday morning, and while it was welcomed by the city’s business association, it said it was “long overdue”.

Do you believe this is a good use of taxpayer and ratepayer money?

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
