Regional Strategic Policy - Housing Supply and Quality
Policy must facilitate adequate quality housing supply, promote sustainable development within urban areas, and provide mixed housing with varied sizes and tenures to support balanced sustainable communities.
The policy approach must be to facilitate an adequate and available supply of quality housing to meet the needs of everyone; promote more sustainable housing development within existing urban areas; and the provision of mixed housing development with homes in a range of sizes and tenures. This approach to housing will support the need to maximise the use of existing infrastructure and services, and the creation of more balanced sustainable communities.
