Housing scenarios consultation

Better Planning 2024

On 15 November, Council commenced community and stakeholder engagement on five housing scenarios for areas close to Roseville, Lindfield, Killara and Gordon stations, which all deliver the same level of housing as proposed under the NSW Government’s Transport Oriented Development (TOD) controls.

The Council’s scenarios, however, include innovative measures to better protect tree canopy and heritage areas and items. The scenarios also support measures to revitalise and strengthen Ku-ring-gai commercial centres.

The scenarios are known as:

  • Scenario 1 – Existing NSW Government Controls Retained
  • Scenario 2a – Safeguard and Intensify
  • Scenario 2b – Minor Amendment to Existing NSW Government Controls
  • Scenario 3a – Preserve and Intensify
  • Scenario 3b – Preserve, Intensify and Expand

The scenarios include a range of options to manage housing growth, through varying controls for heritage, tree protection and building density and heights. They all cater for around 23,200 new homes over the next 15 years.

Council is inviting feedback by 17 December.
