BRIEFLY
Heaps of new
Waipa homes
No let-up for firefighters
The next Census should find
plenty of new Te Awamutu and
Waipa residents, judging by
recent building statistics.
There were 17 permits for
new homes issued by Waipa
District Council in October
and permits for re-siting eight
houses. Historically, that was a
healthy number, but not a patch
on the previous month.
In September there were 36
permits issued for new homes
and 11 permits for re-siting
houses.
Te Awamutu Ward, which has
lagged behind Cambridge and
the rural Waipa wards in recent
years, led the way with a total
of 14 permits for new homes
over the two months.
