      <description>The Draft Spatial Plan is designed to blame the home-owning people of Wellington. It has its own spin aimed at Newtown’s heritage areas – older housing is up for grabs.</description>

      <title>Making a submission on the Draft Spatial Plan – due by 5pm October 5th.</title>
      <link>https://newtown.org.nz/2020/10/03/making-a-submission-on-the-draft-spatial-plan-due-by-5pm-october-5th/</link>
      <description>We agree with the need for more housing, but tall buildings in the residential areas as proposed in this plan would result in losing the very qualities, including sun and shelter, that make Newtown a great place to live.</description>

      <description>On Wednesday last week, a responsible Covid-19 community meeting in Newtown heard constructive suggestions for the increasingly polarizing WCC Draft Spatial Plan. A hundred or so people attended spaciously, while 50 others obliged and walked home to join the other 400 on the live Facebook stream.</description>
