Reduced Red Tape Means $800 Saving For New Home Builders
Tanya Davies MP, Member for Mulgoa, The Hon, Pru Goward MP, Minister for Planning, The Hon. Stuart Ayres MP, Member for Penrith and Minister for Emergency Services
Families building new homes can save $800 under new arrangements for approvals in bushfire-prone areas, which put safety first while making it easier and cheaper to build, and remove duplication, Minister for Planning Pru Goward and Minister for Emergency Services Stuart Ayres announced last month. Ms Goward and Mr Ayres were joined by Member for Mulgoa Tanya Davies at Mulgoa Rise to make the announcement. The changes remove the need for local home-builders to do an assessment of bushfire risk when they lodge their DA to build if the Rural Fire Service (RFS) has undertaken an upfront assessment of bushfire risk at the subdivision stage.
