Hawke's Bay region
To deliver more warm and dry homes in areas of high demand, Kāinga Ora is replacing older state houses with a greater number of new and modern homes, and partnering with developers and others to build on new land.
Community engagement
Kāinga Ora state housing projects are under assessment while we review our social housing delivery pipeline, with a focus on best value for money and areas of greater social housing need. As decisions are made we will keep our partners and the community up to date.
Keeping our neighbours informed during the development journey is really important to us. We have drop-in sessions regularly across the region to enable neighbours and community to speak with us in person and learn more about our work programme such as:
- How sites are identified for new housing.
- Our design, planning and construction processes.
- How we place people into homes and manage our housing.
- How we support customers to live well in their homes and community.
In late April/early May 2024, we held a community drop-in week [PDF, 276 KB] so the community could find out more about our plans, meet the team and ask questions.
We’ve also developed interactive maps to provide greater access to communities to understand what’s happening on our projects.
