The Urban Development Institute of Australia – NSW Division (UDIA) welcomes the opportunity to provide a submission into the exhibition of the Draft Mosman Local Strategic Planning Statement (DLSPS).

- Council review Housing Targets following the finalisation of the other district plans

- Council adopts an incentive-based approach for affordable housing in collaboration with industry.
- Council seek to enable new housing typologies
