Introducing two new housing types to meet changing needs:

  • Co-living housing

  • Seniors housing

Including the planning rules for:

  • Caravan parks and manufactured home estates
  • Group homes
  • Retention of existing affordable rental housing
  • Secondary dwellings (sometimes known as granny flats)
