Part of 318 Main Road, Glenorchy (also known as Part of Eady Street Reserve)
Glenorchy City Council is seeking 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.
Do you have any significant concerns about the proposed disposal of this property?
Before deciding whether to proceed with the formal land disposal process, as set out in section 178 of the Local Government Act 1993, Council officers invite you to have your say. You can provide your feedback by logging into your Let's Talk account (or registering) to complete the survey below.
Your feedback will assist in the development of a report and recommendation to Council on whether to proceed to the next stage of disposal. This report will be considered by Council at a future Council Meeting in 2025.
If approved, the next stage of the process will be for officers to advertise the disposal formally through a section 178 process set out in the Local Government Act 1993. This will be advertised via Council’s website and Facebook page as well as in the Mercury, in the Council Chambers and a notice placed on the property to provide all residents with the opportunity to object to any proposal.
