  • ngoing urban renewal.

Housing ACT

  • Housing ACT owns, manages and maintains close to 12,000 public and

community housing properties spread across the city

  • We provide housing and support, to Canberrans who need it most
  • The foundation for a decent life is affordable, accessible and secure

housing

  • Housing is located across Canberra so people can access opportunities to

participate and contribute throughout the city, regardless of their background, characteristics and circumstances

  • Housing contributes to a safer, stronger and more inclusive community
slide-82
SLIDE 82
  • Just under 12,000 public housing dwellings
  • 70% of dwellings were built before the 1990s
  • Over 60% of stock is detached dwellings
  • 21% of stock are units and 14% are older persons accommodation
  • Housing is scattered across Canberra but Belconnen (24.9%), Inner North

(22.9%) and Tuggeranong (20.8%) accommodate over 60 % of public housing stock

  • The portfolio has a value of $5B and represents approx 7% of the ACT’s

total housing stock

  • As at 30 April 2018 there were 157 public housing dwellings in Wright and

Coombs, which is about 8% of total housing stock (1,966) based on 2106 Census data

What is our portfolio?

slide-83
SLIDE 83
  • There were 21,884 people living in public housing as at 30 June 2017
  • There are presently 1,747 applications for public housing
  • Public housing tenants include a broad range of people:
  • Older people – approx. 26% aged over 65 years
  • Women – 64% of tenants
  • Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people – about 9% of tenancies
  • People with disability – 63% of our tenants access the disability support pension
  • Approx. 75% of our tenants live in single person or single parent households
  • Children – about 27% of our tenants are under the age of 15 years
  • 95% of tenants are on a rebate
  • Some of our tenants stay in public housing for only a short time, until they

can ‘get back on their feet’, others stay in public housing longer-term.

Who are our tenants?

slide-84
SLIDE 84

Maintaining properties

  • Public housing tenants are expected to maintain their homes
  • Tenants are encouraged to repair any damage they cause
  • Tenants are not responsible for fair wear and tear costs such as taps and

washers or carpets that are worn out

  • Housing ACT is responsible for upgrades to wet areas eg bathrooms,

kitchens and indoor and out door paints

  • In small complexes Housing ACT also maintains the common areas and

verges – these are done on a scheduled basis

  • Housing ACT also carries out disability modifications to properties (in

2016-2017, 477 modifications at a cost of $1.59m)

  • Housing ACT also makes energy efficiency improvements and installs

energy efficient appliances in existing dwellings

slide-85
SLIDE 85

Renewing the portfolio

  • The public housing portfolio is old – doesn’t meet contemporary tenant

needs - high repair and maintenance costs ($41m in 2016-17)

  • Reduce concentrations such as those along Northbourne Avenue
  • The housing needs to be diverse to meet varied requirements
  • Well located close to shops, public transport, schools and other facilities
  • Mix of building and tenure types – adaptable and accessible
  • Good quality build and design that matches the look and feel of the

neighbourhood

  • Presently scheduled or underway are 48 dwellings in Denman Prospect

and 26 in Wright

  • There are no plans to establish public housing on community facility land

next to Charles Weston school
