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.
Location
The proposed subdivision is the 10.46 ha site at Lot 3 Techno Park Drive, Kings Meadows.

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 will be held to help finalise the development application to the Launceston City Council.

Community members are invited to attend one of two consultation sessions on:
Tuesday, 5 November 2024, from 3.30pm to 6.30pm or
Wednesday, 6 November 2024, from 9am to 11am.
To give participants an opportunity to find out more, ask questions and have input, you are invited to register for an appointment with members of the project team.
