“We need to ensure that there is diversity in housing. This means people can choose the type of house that will suit them and their families. This includes detached dwellings, duplexes and other low density housing up to more high density, apartments.
“Greenfield housing must still form a key part of the housing supply mix in the future. Infill development alone won’t be enough to achieve our housing supply targets.
“Greenfield housing can deliver a large part of the 377,000 homes needed in NSW over the next 5 years, however government needs to come to the party and provide access to zoned and serviced land. It is important that all levels of government continue to facilitate the increased supply of greenfield development through faster rezonings and the coordinated provision of infrastructure.
“Greenfield housing developments are a tried-and-true way to deliver housing quickly in NSW and people want it. We must do whatever we can to keep the great Australian dream alive,” concluded Mr Armitage.
