Auckland councillors are back in a second day of meetings to sign off the city's budget, after a major concession from the mayor over the sale of airport shares.
The council failed to get to a vote on Thursday but Mayor Wayne Brown has a new proposal - selling just eight percent of the shares instead of the entire 18 percent.
It will mean more spending cuts and a rates hike of 7.7 percent - more than the rate of inflation.
RNZ reporter Finn Blackwell is at the meeting and speaks to Charlotte Cook.
