What's this ? A new heritage fund to focus on resilient future

From the Wellington City Council website:

The Council has approved officer’s recommendation to disestablish the Built Heritage Incentive Fund (BHIF) and establish in its place the Heritage Resilience and Regeneration Fund (HRRF).

Key areas the new funding model is changing include a targeted focus towards earthquake prone heritage buildings, especially those approaching strengthening deadlines, attention to areas of urban regeneration and Council investment, and a case management approach by a heritage advisor.
