Enabling Auckland: Infrastructure for Growth

August 25 @ 4:00 pm - 6:30 pm

NZ$85.00

Join some of Auckland’s leading infrastructure and city-shaping decision-makers for a discussion on the future of Auckland’s growth and development. 

 

Moderated by Natasha Hood (MinterEllisonRuddWatts), the panel brings together Patrick Dougherty (Auckland Council), Priyan Perera (Watercare), Nesh de la Rey (Auckland Transport) and Rupert Hodson (Committee for Auckland) to discuss the projects, funding and partnerships shaping Auckland’s future.

 

What we’ll cover:

🚆 Major city-shaping projects, including the City Rail Link, growth corridors and priority development areas

🏗️ How Auckland’s agencies are coordinating transport, water and urban development to support future growth

💰 Infrastructure funding, value capture, targeted rates, congestion charging and the role of the Auckland Deal

📈 Opportunities, certainty and challenges for developers, investors and the wider property sector

🗳️ How planning reform, government policy and the upcoming election could influence Auckland’s growth agenda

🤝 The role of the private sector in helping deliver the infrastructure and housing Auckland needs

 

Join us for a practical and forward-looking conversation exploring one of Auckland’s most important questions: Can Auckland deliver the growth it has planned — and who pays for it?
