Urban Taskforce Australia strongly supports this proposal, recognising the significant contribution this will make to increasing housing supply.
This precinct is well-connected and ideally suited for higher-density housing, and the draft proposal capitalises on the opportunities a rezoning might provide.
However, we are concerned about proposed charges being placed onto new dwellings in the precinct. In the current context of rising construction costs, any impact on feasibility will have a dramatic impact on housing delivery and supply.
Urban Taskforce Australia urges the NSW Government to review proposed state and local taxes, fees, and charges being applied to development in the Burwood North precinct to minimise their potential detrimental effects on housing feasibility and to take into account the impact of construction price changes.
