Affordable possibility

Gosford Council has resolved to support, in principle, the use of council property in Macleay Ave, Woy Woy, for the purpose of an affordable housing project.

Further investigations will be undertaken to determine how the Gosford Housing Trust can be involved in facilitating the use of 10 Macleay Ave, with the project to be carried out in partnership between council and a community-housing provider.

Council officers said it is envisaged that the pilot project could assist in facilitating future affordable housing projects involving both public and privately-owned lands.
