Part of 318 Main Road, Glenorchy (also known as Part of Eady Street Reserve)

Glenorchy City Council has sought feedback from the community about the potential disposal of Council owned land at part of Eady Street Reserve (part of 318 Main Road), Glenorchy, by way of exclusive dealing to Homes Tasmania. The land is zoned as “Inner Residential” under the Planning Scheme, and is shown outlined in red in the map below. The proposed use of the land by Homes Tasmania is for medium density residential housing, and would include a ‘right of footway’ easement to maintain the public pedestrian access from Bowden Street to Eady Street Reserve.

The disposal is being considered by Council as it is consistent with Council's Statement of Commitment on Housing, to release surplus Council owned land to increase residential land supply for housing.

Following initial consultation with surrounding property owners in May and June 2025, Council decided at its meeting on the 28 July 2025 to notify the public of Council’s intention to dispose of this property.

Under section 178 of the Local Government Act 1993 (the Act) Council is required notify the community of any proposal to sell public land and provide the community with an opportunity to have their views heard.

A 21-day public notification period begins from Monday, 11 August 2025. This means there are 21 days, from 11 August 2025, to raise any objection to the proposed disposal. If you wish to object, you must do so in writing to the Chief Executive Officer at the postal or email address below.

Any objections received will be considered by the Council at a future Council meeting in accordance with subsection 178(6) of the Act.

Should you have any questions or wish to discuss this matter further, please contact Council’s Property Coordinator: Renee Kapitzke on (03) 6216 6800 or at gccmail@gcc.tas.gov.au.
