With Councils across Victoria being asked to identify suitable land for the state government’s $5.3B Big Housing Build, Monash City Council is offering three Council-owned sites for consideration for social housing.
The Council will advocate for the sites at Clayton, Mount Waverley and Chadstone to be considered, along with a potential VicTrack controlled site in Oakleigh.
Chris Eddy speaks with the Mayor of Monash, Cr Brian Little, about why social housing is a top priority for the Council, and how Monash was instrumental in bringing together an alliance of 13 metropolitan Councils to advocate for more action on this pressing issue.
