I live on a beach and this is quite big.

Minimum floor levels are being raised in low-lying coastal parts of Dunedin, effective today.

When my neighbour built about ten years ago, the minimum was 0.5m. The new minimum floor level is 3.05m - 3.17m above sea level "in certain areas".

Three metres! While I approve the forward thinking, we'll have a lot of houses on poles.

Thanks to @paw for his @dccnews bot.
