Affordable housing agency Kāinga Ora bids up Ferncliffe Farms price on inflated valuations
1 Aug, 2022 05:00 AM
State housing agency Kāinga Ora was only cosmetically restricted to market pricing in its surprisingly rich, winning bid of $70.4m for a rural Tauranga tract of land, Ferncliffe Farms, last year.
What is 'Smart' about paying over the odds by many millions of dollars? Taxpayers getting shafted again....

About 1000 more new homes are likely to be built in Tauranga over the coming years due to the acquisition of a 95.3 hectare site by Kāinga Ora.
Ferncliffe Farm is a greenfield site in the priority-growth area of Tauranga’s Tauriko West.
The $70.4 million purchase is the first acquisition under the newly created Kāinga Ora Land Programme, set up to lead strategic land acquisitions to enable housing and thriving communities in areas of need.
Kāinga Ora urban planning and design general manager Katja Lietz says the acquisition will bring much needed housing options to the area.
“There is high demand for not only market homes, but also affordable and public housing in Tauranga.
“A site this large, developed by Kāinga Ora and its partners, can provide this mix of housing, meeting the needs of a broad cross-section of the community.”
Tauriko West is one of five priority development areas in the Western Bay of Plenty under the SmartGrowth urban growth partnership.
SmartGrowth is a collaboration of local government, tangata whenua, and central government, set up to plan for growth across the Western Bay of Plenty sub-region.
SmartGrowth chair Peter Winder says the Kāinga Ora acquisition aligns well with the partnership’s strategy.
“SmartGrowth provides a unified vision, direction and voice for the future of the Western Bay of Plenty as we help develop a great place to live, learn, work and play,” he says.
A person dies and goes to heaven, they meet St Peter at the pearly gates.
The person looks up and see's a wall of clock and asks, what are they?
St Peter says they are the lier person clocks, for every lie the clock moves one minute.
Whose clock is that asks the person? Oh that's Mother Theresa, her clock never moved.
And that one asks the person? Oh that's Abraham Lincoln, his clock moved only two minutes.
What about Ms Aderns clock is it on the wall? No says St Peter it's up there, we use it as a ceiling fan.
Yeah.
It'd be a real b*gger of a thing to have to design, develop, and implement in the given timeframe.
Actually, I'm actually rather pleased that the government and IRD know so little about people, and are not able to track people's whereabouts particularly thoroughly and comprehensively.
I think that overall it's a good thing!
Newt government debt is the all important figure as Labour borrowed money to put into NZ Super.

You should stick to posting in the wee hours of 3 am and 4 am - when your half nonsense makes some sense to Ardern.
Remember what they said in 2017?
Jacinda Ardern - ‘kids living in cars and motels is not a sign of care’.
Grant Robertson - 'New Zealanders will look on in shame at the fact that there are families living in cars.'
Guess what?
The number of people forced to live in cars under Labour has more than quadrupled to 480 in June 2022, from 108 in December 2017.
Hell of an achievement by Ardern & her bunch of nioncompoops - Hipkins, Wood, Robertson & the spin mistress herself, Jacinda.
Which Government said "No new Borrowings" ? :)
Which Government said "No new Taxes" ? ;)
Which Government instead made the local fiat effectively a shadow of it's prior real value
and are further eroding it's real value ? ;)
(A bit dishonest - not telling everyone the Kiwi buck would buy only a fraction of
what it previously did, really .. but then who really believed 'Trust Us' over '
'Pull the Wool over our Eyes' again ? ) ;)
Here's the dough - but dont ask us what it's real value is after the Govt Inflationary policies & Money printing schemes have impacted it :)
Bolivia or Brasil type Economics in play ? :)
We all know how good they were and where things have headed ..
We can control Covid .. Oops no we can't .. Ooops the ATM is out of cash ..
Sorry boys and girls - only one lavish party, we made a mistake - you're all
swimming or drowning, on your own from here on - don't blame us :)
Whatever happened to Camp Commandant Little's vast acreages of broken
decrepid Hospo buildings ? .. Are they still in use ? Or was this just more
incompetent BS & lunatic raving under Little's Leadership and from a Health
Ministry that may as well have been asleep from the start of the Pandemic ;)
Of course the hapless Little did himself no favours getting offside with Workers
in the Sector, and the evolving mess suggests a further continuation of
Labour digging a trench deeper around them with a Minister who should
have been removed at least 7 years previously, carelessly tossed a Portfolio .. ;)
As per the usual Labour tenure, Yesterday's Tomorrow is here Today and the day
of reckoning approaches for such careless irresponsible economic and other policies
Labour have practiced on poorest of judgement and likely advices ;)
National put in the hard yards after the GFC and twin Christchurch earthquakes to restore NZ’s credit rating - as usual, Ardern & Labour are quick to take credit.
But they are quicker to blame others for the disasters of housing, law & order, cost of living and healthcare they inflict on NZers.
Meanwhile, they love reading ever more debts to spray the money randomly and with no consideration to feeding inflation & who they give the money to!

A bunch of monkeys in charge - Ardern & Robertson.
Quote of the day :
“Friends of mine went to Australia for higher wages and cheaper living. They have now told me that they have received a Jacinta gift on behalf of the taxpayers.”
The panic $350 tax cut bribe cost of living payment is indicative of how Ardern & Robertson are squandering NZ’s future - feeding inflation at a time when government restraint is required.
You can take Ardern out of the fish and chips shop but you cannot take the fish & chips shop out of Jacinda, the economic ignoramus.
Tax cuts are non-inflationary as most of the so-called cuts are actually reverting back to where things were before Ardern & Robertson came in, increased taxes and went on their spending spree - on non-productive payments and spending, feeding inflation.
Where's the return from the $3 billion Provincial Growth Fund, the slush fund for Winston so he picked the clueless Ardern as PM?
Only someone who posts on ST at 3 am (seems to not have a life) does not understand that.
NZ boasts of the champion spin mistress of all time :
