LIVE WELLington has announced it will shortly lodge judicial review proceedings in the High Court.  These ask the Court to review the District Plan decision on character areas made by the Wellington City Council and the Minister for RMA Reform.

LIVE WELLington is an advocacy group for density done well.

The group (comprising more than 150 members) has been involved in the District Plan process from the beginning. 

LIVE WELLington believes that with smart urban design, Wellington’s iconic character areas can be retained at the same time as new, denser housing is introduced to the inner city and central city areas.

OPINION PIECE by Jane O'Loughlin, convenor of LIVE WELLington.

Very soon Chris Bishop, the Minister for RMA Reform, will announce his decision on the Wellington District Plan.
