The Low Rise Housing Diversity Code.
The Low Rise Housing Diversity Code allows a wider range of medium density developments to be carried out under the fast-tracked Complying Development system. After years of pushback and delays from councils, the code came into full affect in July 2020.
The Low Rise Housing Diversity Code allows the following developments up to 2 storeys to be approved as a complying development provided they meet all the requirements of the code.
Dual Occupancies (attached or detached)
Manor Houses
Multi-dwelling developments (Terraces)
