Housing

Houses in Timbertop estate in Officer

In Cardinia Shire we encourage diverse, high quality and sustainable housing that is affordable for all, in close proximity to employment, education, goods and services and open space, which is connected by active travel infrastructure and meets the needs of a growing and diverse community.

Increase access to appropriate and affordable housing.

We will do this by:

  • supporting and facilitating affordable and flexible housing which caters for different households and meets the needs of all people.
  • encouraging diversity in housing to meet the needs of existing and future residents across all life stages, including those with specific housing requirements
  • supporting high quality residential developments that respond to best practice in sustainability, environmental, safety and healthy by design guidelines.
  • identifying opportunities to work with housing organisations to encourage development of sustainable community housing across the municipality.
