Community Care Accommodation – 405 Upper Heidelberg Road, Ivanhoe
What is Community Care Accommodation?
A type of housing providing supported living for people with disabilities, assisted care needs, or transitional housing. Examples include:
• Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA)
• Supported Residential Services (SRS)
• Group homes
Permit & Planning Considerations
A permit is required when:
• The site is in a residential zone needing approval.
• The facility exceeds resident limits.
• Building modifications or change of use are proposed.
Clause 52.22 & NDIS
Clause 52.22 limits objections at VCAT and now explicitly covers NDIS-funded projects, simplifying approvals for disability housing.
How Property Change Town Planners Helped
• Secured planning approvals under Clause 52.22.
• Liaised with Council to minimise delays.
• Ensured NDIS compliance.
Through expert planning, Property Change helped deliver 405 Upper Heidelberg Road, ensuring a seamless approval process for this essential community facility.
