NSW Planning has launched A Plan for Growing Sydney which promises “More affordable housing in areas close to friends and family, workplaces and schools, public transport, shops and services will make sure that Sydney remains a great place to live for everyone.”
The Plan recognises that: “Over the next 20 years, the population in Sydney will grow much faster than in the last 20 years. Projections indicate that Sydney will need around 664,000 additional homes over the next 20 years.1 New housing will be needed in greenfield locations and the established urban area. Providing housing in a variety of sizes, types and locations will be essential to meeting Sydney’s future housing need. Increasing housing supply will boost economic activity and generate viable infrastructure and business investment opportunities.”
