    Wellington City Council has voted to reduce the city's character areas

    Wellington City Council has voted to reduce the city's character areas


    The Council is today debating the district plan, which will influence the future of housing in the capital.

    A report by an independent panel recommended to expand heritage protection areas, but a majority of councillors have rejected the proposals.

    Labour Councillor Rebecca Matthews says the Council has a moral obligation to increase housing supply.
