Constituency questions

North-Eastern Metropolitan Region


North-Eastern Metropolitan Region

Aiv PUGLIELLI (North-Eastern Metropolitan) (12:55): (1157) My question today is to the Minister for Planning, and it relates to the Ivanhoe water tank site at 421 Upper Heidelberg Road, Ivanhoe. My community is keen to know how many social and affordable homes will be available at this site. It is a prime location. It is public land, with beautiful mature trees on the site. This is an excellent opportunity to build a significant number of social homes and to provide many more at truly affordable rates alongside those big old red gums. My understanding is that there are approximately 275 homes in total planned for this site. Can you please inform me how many will be social homes and how many will be defined as affordable homes?
