I say this, as when I drive around the Hutt Valley, on sections where there were once one or two homes - 1 or 2 lots of rates - there can now be a huge number of homes. Many, many multi property sections now, new subdivisions as well, all presumably paying rates. I would love to hear from someone who knows the net gain in actual properties over the last two to three years. It must be hundreds and hundreds.

The paper would suit a feature wall or someone might have some other innovative … View more
