Auckland Council is seeking expressions of interest for a limited one-off grants scheme to support homeowners with property access impacted by road reserve slips that occurred in the 2023 storms.
On 7 November the council’s Transport, Resilience and Infrastructure Committee voted for the $5 million scheme, with the funding coming from the Crown-council funded transport network repairs budget.
Expressions of interest are open for the scheme from 13 December to 10 February 2025.
