Affordable housing in Randwick City

Published: Tuesday, 11 September 2012

Last Friday Council proudly opened a new affordable housing development in Maroubra. The project, which has been a joint partnership between Council and both the Federal and State governments, as well as Community Housing Limited, will provide low-to-medium-cost housing for employees working in valuable key service areas. Council contributed the land for the development and $500,000 to the project.
