For those in the business of building houses, there is no secret as to why we are in a national housing crisis. We have been trying to build houses at Kings Hill Urban Release Area since 2014. Currently it takes less time for a new mine approval than it does for some housing development approvals in NSW.
We were buoyed by the Premier's commitment to fixing the housing crisis - the housing crisis hasn't happened overnight nor on his watch. It's years in the making. The Kings Hill Housing Development project has in fact seen five NSW premiers, and seven planning ministers since commencing the project (but no houses).
