Marfell Redevelopment (proposed) New Plymouth

Brendon Mills made this Official Information request to Kāinga Ora–Homes and Communities

The request was successful.

From: Brendon Mills

Dear Kāinga Ora–Homes and Communities,

In 2007/08, a number of state housing tenants (and their families) were evicted from a number of properties owned by KO's predecessor, Housing NZ Corporation, that were to be demolished on Discovery Place, in the New Plymouth suburb of Marfell.

The development never went ahead for a number of reason and the land was left vacant until it was used for a KiwiBuild development in 2019-21.

I would like to know if these tenants were relocated to other then-HNZC properties, or where they left to find private sector accomodation.

Yours faithfully,

Brendon Mills
