Department and Developer Led Housing Increase
The Transported Oriented Development (TOD)
Program and the Low and Mid-Rise Housing (LMR)
Program (together Programs) are opening up
opportunities for increased development in targeted areas and
regions of NSW.
The Programs are initiatives not just to increase housing
development to address the current and projected shortfall of
housing in NSW, but also to address the needs of the community,
such as being close to transport and community hubs.
The Programs will provide the means by which increased housing
development is enabled through rezonings and smoother development
approval pathways. The Programs will mean very little, just words,
unless the development community takes advantage of the
opportunities offered and find ways to implement commercially
feasible projects within the targeted zones for the Programs to
succeed.
