Modular Homes Stuck in Planning Limbo | Sydney News
Description
A Bulli couple’s dream of building a second modular home on their subdivided block has been crushed by council red tape — twice — after being labeled a “manufactured housing estate,” despite following all government advice. Stuck paying rent and mortgage while raising kids, they’re caught in a planning limbo that mirrors a statewide crisis: NSW’s push to boost housing via modern construction is blocked by outdated zoning laws. New legislation aims to fix this by treating all homes — modular or brick — equally, creating one streamlined approval path. Their story is a rallying cry for reform, as councils and officials alike push for clarity to end the delays and let families build without bureaucratic hurdles.
