More Housing

The Right Way

Who we are

We are a group of local Armadale residents who support more housing in our suburb — done the right way. We believe Armadale can grow without losing what makes it special. The State Government wants more homes in Armadale.  So do we. But their one-size-fits-all, fast-tracked approach will do lasting damage to our neighbourhood.

More Homes? Yes.
This Plan? No

Armadale street with multi storey buildings

What the Government is doing

Under the Government’s new activity centre rulkes, developers can build apartment blocks 3 to 6 storey high across most of Armadale.  Approvals will be fast-tracked, limiting your right to object, appeal, or have a meaningful say. Council will be forced to approve developments, unless subject to heritage overlay. For a more detailed guide, see Item 1 on the Resources Page.

Armadale busy streets with cars

What This Means for You

  • More cars on already crowded streets, with little parking required for new developments

  • Increased congestion and pressure on local infrastructure

  • Gradual loss of housing diversity that defines Armadale

years of extensive planning and consultation 

The City of Stonnington has already developed a smarter plan. It took  five years of community consultation  and careful planning. It focuses growth around existing activity centres where infrastructure can support it.
