新南威尔士州试图简化大奶奶的公寓批准程序,以增加农村住房,降低成本,但理事会在土地和环境问题上面临退步。 NSW seeks to simplify granny flat approvals to boost rural housing, cut costs, but faces council pushback over land and environmental concerns.

新南威尔士州正在审查规划法的修改,允许使用简化的“符合发展证书”程序,绕过详细的理事会申请,建造像大奶奶公寓这样的二级住房。 NSW is reviewing planning law changes to allow secondary dwellings like granny flats to be built using a simplified "complying development certificate" process, bypassing detailed council applications. 目标是增加农村住房供应,支持多代人生活,为季节工人提供住房,可能使发展成本减少多达15 000美元。 The goal is to increase rural housing supply, support multi-generational living, and provide homes for seasonal workers, potentially cutting development costs by up to $15,000. 虽然得到政府和新南威尔士农民协会的支持,但包括Hornsby在内的一些理事会对农村土地、环境保护和基础设施的影响表示关切,敦促地方采取灵活做法。 While backed by the government and NSW Farmers Association, some councils, including Hornsby, raise concerns about impacts on rural land, environmental protection, and infrastructure, urging local flexibility. 调查预计将于2026年2月报告,目的是平衡住房需求与可持续的土地使用。 The inquiry, expected to report in February 2026, aims to balance housing needs with sustainable land use.
