The twister tore through the area back in June.
Close to 300-thousand dollars has been allocated to those impacted.
Just 12 of 90 submissions have been rejected.
Otara-Papatoetoe Local Board chair Apulu Reece Autagavaia says locals are slowly moving on.
He says it's seen all over the country when a disaster occurs, that communities band together.
