A new subdivision planned for Kings Meadows will deliver around 104 new lots, subject to Council approval.
Homes Tasmania is committed to increasing social and affordable housing and releasing land for residential development.
About 85 per cent of the new lots of land will initially be made available for affordable home purchase under the MyHome shared equity program.
MyHome helps eligible Tasmanians buy their own homes by reducing the upfront costs and the ongoing mortgage repayments.

Have your say
The site has been rezoned for residential development under a Housing Land Supply Order after extensive community consultation by the State Planning Office.
We appreciate the community feedback provided during the extensive consultation undertaken to prepare for the HLSO submission.
To ensure Kings Meadows is a place that continues to thrive, a further round of consultation was held during November 2024, including two community sessions on 5 and 6 November 2024 in Kings Meadows.
Written feedback on the preliminary subdivision plan via an online form closed on Friday, 29 November 2024.
