Tauranga City Council and the owner of 299A Lakes Boulevard have reached a settlement by negotiation.
In a statement released this afternoon, Council has agreed to take ownership of the property in exchange for paying the owner all wasted expenditure.
'The terms of settlement are confidential but the parties have worked constructively in reaching a resolution that enables the owner to move on from Bella Vista.”
The property is one of 21 houses in the Tauranga development that were deemed to be dangerous and were evacuated in March.
Since then it's been revealed the houses, some which had code compliance certificates, were shoddy and unsafe.
A lawsuit has been filed against Tauranga City Council by the affected homeowners.
Tauranga City Council has also laid changes against the developer involved.
