The Property Council welcomes the opportunity to comment on the City of Stirling’s proposed Local Planning Policy on affordable housing. We recognise the City’s aim to increase the availability of affordable housing within its municipal area. Housing plays a significant role in a community’s social and economic prosperity. Lack of affordable housing can lead to homelessness, poor health and lower rates of employment and education. However, we do not believe that the mandated provision of affordable dwellings proposed by Local Planning Policy (LPP) 2.12 will achieve this outcome.
The Property Council does not support the Local Planning Policy 2.12 – Affordable Housing. The following submission outlines our reasons for opposing this LPP.
