Quote:

From 1 July 2024, dual occupancies and semi-detached homes will be allowed in all R2 low-density residential zones across NSW.
These changes won’t apply to:

land with a high risk from natural hazards like bushfire and floods
land located close to dangerous goods pipelines and hazardous aircraft noise
land that includes a heritage item
the Bathurst, Hawkesbury, Blue Mountains and Wollondilly areas due to bushfire, flooding and evacuation risks. Bathurst has no suitable R2 land.

Learn more about the areas that are excluded in the Policy exclusions fact sheet (PDF, 566 KB).
The complying development pathway available to dual occupancy development under State Environmental Planning Policy (Exempt and Complying Development Codes) 2008 will be temporarily switched off in areas where this development type wasn’t previously allowed.
This will give affected councils the chance to plan for appropriate settings such as lot sizes for dual occupancy developments in their areas. The complying development pathway for dual occupancy development will be reinstated in these locations as part of stage 2 of the reforms. If dual occupancies are already permitted in your area with a complying development pathway, this will stay the same.
