A 1020-home project slated for Leppington is among the latest proposals to be added to the fast-track planning pathway by the Housing Delivery Authority.
The projects could deliver 8100 homes in NSW after being declared as state significant by the authority (HDA).
The HDA considered 41 applications under this latest tranche—just under half were recommended for approval.
Projects from Dexus, Mirvac and Justice Fox missed the cut, however, major projects approved for the pathway included Amourched & Mourched’s plans for 1020 apartments at 297 Bringelly Road, Leppington.
Amourched & Mourched’s George and Anthony Mourched had proposed a more modest 360-unit scheme for the site in 2018 (pictured above), before the pandemic.
To date, 136 proposals of more than 53,300 potential homes have been declared state significant.
Of those, 47 projects have had Secretary’s Environmental Assessment Requirements (SEARs) issued and one development application has been filed, for a project at Gordon.
The projects recommended for the state significant development pathway included:
