The nation’s big business lobby group will on Thursday release a housing report that will also recommend extensive rezoning across Melbourne and major regional towns to encourage more medium- and high-density housing to be built near infrastructure and services.
“We’re not going to slow down and over the coming weeks, we’re going to outline new key policy changes to build even more homes.” But Dr Stephen Glackin, a senior research fellow at Swinburne University’s Centre for Urban Transitions, warned against simple zoning changes to drive up density, saying suburbs also need mixed-use functions to be more liveable.“The 10 activity centres already have a high a level of amenity as they are set up well for high density living,” Glackin said.
“If there is going to be re-zoning more broadly it will need to include mixed use, so there are shops and services available within walking distance.”
