Boarding Houses, lodging houses, boarders and lodgers, NSW, low-income housing
As a result of Shelter NSW's research into appropriate and sustainable boarding house models, this discussion paper highlights the issues raised through the process of consultation and research and presents possible solutions for on-going discussion and development.
How we provide low cost accommodation in an expensive city is a question with no easy answers particularly given the decreasing amounts of funding available through the Commonwealth State Housing Agreement. The public or social provision of anything, let alone housing, has been under attack for the past two decades, yet it is difficult to see how we will be able to overcome problems like homelessness without a reversal of this trend. This discussion paper is not aimed to provide cheap solutions but to suggest innovative approaches that are reasonable and fair.
