17 Redevelopment and Intensification of Existing Housing Estates

Redevelopment and appropriate intensification of existing housing estates will be supported where:

A. It leads to an increase in the overall supply of new homes including genuinely affordable homes;

B. Any loss of housing will be replaced by new housing at existing or higher densities with at least the equivalent level of overall floorspace including affordable housing; and

C. It increases the design standards, quality, accessibility and safety of the existing housing.
