A $76 million State Significant Development application for affordable housing at 72 & 82-86 Menangle Road, Camden, has entered public exhibition. The proposal, lodged by the Minister administering the Housing Act, seeks to rezone the 7,184 sqm site to R3 medium density and deliver three residential flat buildings.
The development would provide approximately 95 dwellings, all designated as social and affordable housing. The buildings would reach up to 22.5 metres in height, with an average of 4 to 6 storeys across the site.
The scheme proposes a gross floor area of 14,008 sqm, with a floor space ratio of 1.1:1. Parking provision includes 58 car spaces for residents and visitors.
The application is being assessed as a State Significant Development, with a concurrent planning proposal to enable the required zoning and controls. The project is expected to generate 380 construction jobs and 30 ongoing operational roles.
