Augusta, listed on the New Zealand sharemarket, is undertaking due diligence on the purchase by the new fund of 40 hectares of former farm land near Warkworth for housing development. Managing director Mark Francis said the development would create "super lots" to be sold to large housing companies for housing developments. Each super lot might take about 100 houses.  https://www.stuff.co.nz/business/114468934/augusta-capital-is-hoping-to-start-development-of-warkworth-land-for-residential-subdivision-later-this-year Copyright © *|CURRENT_YEAR|* *|LIST:COMPANY|*, All rights reserved.
