I request information regarding plans for the affordable houses for Teitei drive. Considering resource consent has been submitted for this project and the marketing information being provided by Kainga Ora around the 15 new homes to be built for affordable first home buyers, there should be substantial information available.

2./ What builders have been considered to build these houses
3./ What is the estimated cost of build for each house, $ per sqm will be fine.
4./ Who is intended to sell these on the market
5./ Who will be legible to purchase these houses, first home buyers yes, but what is the criteria, do they have to have X amount of deposit,
6./ Is there a loan by KO and if so is it interest bearing, or do the first home buyers have to go to a bank?
7./ Will there be rent to own, and if so how does this scheme work, what is the cost to tax payers
8./ What will the discount be on the land
9./ What will the discount be on the build

Yours faithfully,

I refer to your Official Information Act request dated 11 August 2023,
regarding the affordable homes proposed to be built as part of Stage One
of development at Teitei Drive, Ohakune. The Act requires that we advise
you of our decision on your request no later than 20 working days after
the day we received your request. Unfortunately, it will not be possible
to meet that time limit and we are therefore writing to notify you of an
extension of the time to make our decision, to Friday 22 September 2023.
We will endeavour to advise you of our decision sooner if possible.
This extension is made under section 15A of the Act and is necessary
because the consultations necessary to make a decision on your request are
such that a proper response cannot reasonably be made within the original
time limit.
You have the right to seek an investigation and review by the Ombudsman of
this decision. Information about how to make a complaint is available at
[1]www.ombudsman.parliament.nz or free phone 0800 802 602.
If you wish to discuss any aspect of your request with us, including this
decision, please feel free to contact us at
[2][email address] .
