Planning in a Housing Crisis
Duration: 2 hrsInvestment: $245 incl GST pp
Delivery: Face 2 Face & Webinar
Target Audience
Assessment managers, panel members, planners, development compliance officers, and managers in these areas.Overview
Rarely does a day go by without the term ‘housing crisis’ being deployed by politicians, bureaucrats and journalists alike. Often, it is used as a pretext for challenging conventional thinking and calling for change. In this context - rightly or wrongly – the planning system has been central in discussion and debate.But what does a ‘housing crisis’ mean in practice for the planning system? How effectively is our system responding, and what more can be done? And in what other ways is the ‘housing crisis’ affecting local government planners and development compliance officers?
To help unpack these important issues of the day, the Norman Waterhouse Environment and Planning Team will be delivering a bespoke training session aimed at assessment managers, panel members, planners, development compliance officers, and managers in these areas.
Key Learnings
In the session, we will tackle the following topics, with ample opportunity for interaction and discussion with our panel of experts and colleagues in the sector.- Affordable housing
- Ancillary accommodation (Code definitions, caselaw, comparison with Victoria)
- Infrastructure challenges, including the ‘Felmeri’ condition
- Compliance issues (including approaches to situations involving people living in caravans, sheds and other forms of makeshift accommodation)
- Code Amendments, and the difficulty with public pronouncements ahead of statutory processes.’
