Questions are being raised around the finer details of a plan to buy out cyclone affected properties.
The Government will help fund council buyouts of about 700 category three properties where future severe weather event risks can't be sufficiently mitigated.
Napier Mayor Kirsten Wise told Kate Hawkesby the plan is a significant milestone, but there are still some unanswered questions.
Wise says they will be working closely with the Crown to sort these parts of the process.
