Resolution: Moved by Councillor Marnie Doyle:
3. City of Ipswich Local Housing Action Plan (LHAP)
This is a report concerning the draft City of Ipswich Local Housing Action Plan (LHAP) .
Council officers, in collaboration with the LGAQ and with the support of relevant officers of state government agencies, have developed a draft City of Ipswich Local Housing Action Plan (LHAP) to respond to current and emerging housing challenges and facilitate housing outcomes at a local level. The draft LHAP is a non-statutory and ‘living document’ prepared in response to Action 5 of the state government’s Queensland Housing and Homelessness Action Plan 2021-2025 . The plan provides a framework for delivering housing with support that is integrated across government, the private and not-for-profit sectors.
More than 30 local housing action plans have been adopted by Councils across Queensland. Each Council is responsible for the actions in their plan however, some actions will need assistance from the state government and local stakeholders to implement. The draft LHAP is informed by evidence and information from various sources, and details 40 proposed priority actions Council can take to support and encourage housing availability and affordability in the Ipswich LGA.
The draft LHAP will provide a mechanism to bring together all stakeholders that can influence housing outcomes in the Ipswich LGA to work collaboratively to deliver the 40 actions in the plan. The draft LHAP can also be used by Council as an important advocacy document to leverage funding opportunities, such as the recent state government planning scheme support fund, to facilitate the delivery of the plan’s actions and demonstrate what Council in partnership is actively doing to address the housing challenge in the Ipswich LGA.
Adopting the LHAP would enable Council to begin to progress the proposed priority actions set out in the plan for the benefit of the community, in partnership with the state government, private and community sectors.
Councillor Jim Madden left the meeting at 9.49 am.

C. That the LHAP actions be further developed and refined to continue to address the housing challenges in the Ipswich LGA.
