Urban Taskforce CEO, Tom Forrest today welcomed the decision by the Minns Government to push ahead with a rezoning proposal to deliver more than 8,000 dwellings at Macquarie Park.
The changes make it clear that up to 5,000 new build to rent dwellings are both allowable and are encouraged on land that was previously deemed to be commercial core.

A further 3,000 new homes can also be delivered by relaxing the previous restrictive zoning provisions.
