Auckland's mayor's adamant he won't be drawing up housing maps and plans for the Minister just yet. 

Housing Minister Chris Bishop's recently backed down on Auckland’s housing density plans, cutting the city’s theoretical capacity from two million homes to 1.6 million.

He's asked Auckland Council to send an updated summary on provisional zoning changes by March 17.

But mayor Wayne Brown says they won't invest millions on maps without more clarity, and they don't materialise at the press of a button.
