Another great episode this week from @JerusalemDemsas on Good on Paper, learning from New Zealand's response to housing crisis. This is one of the best podcasts around IMO - only been going 6 months, but consistently great interviews on important, interesting topics…

Great podcast from @JerusalemDemsas and Eleanor West talking about the New Zealand housing reforms. Interesting to hear more about the climate action group getting younger people on board with upzoning for a compact city.

Wellington’s rapid rollout cycle network is shaping up as part of #BICI! It truly does take a village to raise a cycle network! Congrats & keep up the great work @WgtnCC & all involved! Thanks to @BloombergDotOrg & @GlobalStreets

Government cancels Affordable Water Reforms and dismisses recommendations from Future of Local Government review. Rates go up. Government blames road cones.
