Wellington needs to build more houses and the council is looking to rezone two large blocks of land between Tawa and Churton Park.
Upper Upper Stebbings and Glenside West are considered an attractive location for new housing being close to existing shops and services in Churton Park, Takapu Road and Tawa.
The population of Wellington City is expected to grow by 50,000 – 80,000 people over the next 30 years.
The council’s strategy to accommodate this growth includes intensification in the central city and around existing town centres, as well as developing new urban areas in Lincolnshire Farm, Upper Stebbings and Glenside West.
Do you support rezoning the land?

Fares on Metlink services across the region will be increasing in line with inflation from February 2021 following a recent decision by Greater Wellington.
In its annual fares review, Greater Wellington looks at the expectations of revenue and costs and determines what fare adjustments might be required for the following year to maintain good quality public transport services across the region.
One of the reasons given for the increase is a falling revenue due to Covid-19.
Under the changes most bus and rail non-cash fares including Snapper, 10-trip fares, rail monthly and MonthlyPlus passes and Wellington and Eastbourne 30 Day passes will see an average increase of 1.5 percent.

Trampers wanting to access popular huts in the northern Tararuas (including Kime Hut, pictured) are likely to face access problems for sometime.
The section of Ōtaki Gorge Road known as Blue Bluff remains unstable and is likely to remain closed for the peak summer period.
As well as a camping ground, it is also a major entrance point for trampers and hunters accessing the Tararua Forest Park.
The slip, 12km in from SH1, is a major one. Kāpiti Coast District Council Access and Transport Manager Glen O’Connor says expert geotechnical advice is that further slipping could occur at any time, and may be extensive.
Engineers are waiting for the slip to move before deciding what the best long term solution is.
The Department of Conservation is working to find alternative public access to the huts and walks in the forest park and is expected to have options for trampers by summers.
