Draft Eurobodalla Housing Strategy – scoping report

The draft Housing Strategy (the strategy) aims to address housing diversity, and the growing need for affordable housing in our community. With increasing housing prices and a shortage of affordable options, it is crucial to explore different approaches to ensure housing accessibility for all residents. The strategy includes auditing the supply and demand of housing stock, and assessing the requirement for appropriately zoned land.

The draft housing strategy was presented at the 19 November 2024 Council meeting. The preparation of a scoping report to inform the draft Housing Strategy was requested as a result of this Council meeting. The scoping report was prepared and presented at the 25 February 2025 Council meeting for endorsement for public exhibition.

The scoping report includes a comparative analysis of several affordable housing strategies from adjacent local government areas. The report also provides Council with a comprehensive list of actions that can be considered for inclusion in the draft Housing Strategy.

Council is seeking feedback on which actions from the scoping report should be considered for inclusion in the draft Housing Strategy.
