A construction boss is allaying fears of flooding of development sites.

Neighbours are raising concerns about a new housing development on land which flooded during Auckland's January downpours.

Mayor Wayne Brown says he's not aware of the specific situation, but he has concerns there are plots of land with resource consent that have recently flooded. 

Naylor Love Chief Executive Rick Herd told Mike Hosking that just because the piece of land has flooded, doesn't mean there isn't an engineering solution to it.

He says it may be the developers have already got a plan to get rid of the water off the site should there be flooding.
