Homes Tasmania is planning to rezone the land and build a new subdivision for future homes.

The proposed subdivision would be delivered in four stages over 10-20 years, providing around 400 residential lots in total and 120 lots in Stage 1.

Initial Stage 1 works will deliver the first 40 lots and public space with a playground.

It would be located near the existing Rocherlea community and the Waratah Road local business zone, encouraging small business opportunities such as a cafe, supermarket or hairdresser, and providing shops for existing and new residents.

There would be a range of lot sizes for different households and budgets from small townhouse lots between 160–250 m² to multi-residential, medium-density sites.

Consultation on the draft master plan is open between February and March 2025.

Interested community members are invited to drop in to one of two community sessions to find out more about the draft master plan and have your say:

Venue: Rocherlea Recreation Ground (Football Club), 23-41 Archer Street, Rocherlea

When: Wednesday, 11 February 2025
