Residential developments of 40 units or greater must provide a minimum of 10% of total units as affordable housing. Artificially subdivided sites to avoid this threshold will not be supported.
The Council will only permit a residential development of 40 units or greater, where a minimum of 10% of the total units, are provided as affordable housing. Where a proposed site has been artificially subdivided to be less than the threshold identified under this policy, the proposal will not be supported by the Council.
