Government’s much anticipated Regional Deals Strategic Framework was published on Thursday 22 August, see here: Regional Deals framework announced | Beehive.govt.nz. 

There’s much to be welcomed in the Framework, and many details that still need to be thought through. From an urban development perspective, the three priority objectives of building economic growth, delivering connected and resilient infrastructure, and improving the supply of affordable and quality housing are all directly relevant.

Join us on Wednesday 18 September for a Webinar with Patrick McVeigh, Beca’s Technical Director for Economic Development Advisory, for a presentation where he will reflect upon the Framework and draw upon his experience and knowledge of how Deals have enabled urban development overseas. He will also share specific examples of initiatives that have delivered to improve housing supply and affordability.

Zoom Link will be sent to you on the Tuesday prior to the webinar.
