The paper summarises demographic data and identifies key social and housing data and issues. It outlines the recent legislative and non-statutory policy reforms by which Council seeks to improve and encourage a diverse range of accessible, affordable and equitable housing options.

The paper is also an instrument to inform and provide a snapshot to Council and the local community on the progress and development in Councils suite of social and affordable housing initiatives, actions and programs. The paper has been prompted pursuant to Council’s Management Plan 2007 - 2011 and the Waverley Social Plan 2005 - 2010.

Should you have any questions with regard to Council's Housing Paper 2007, please contact Elisa Sperling (Senior Strategic Planner) at Waverley Council on (02) 9369 8102.
