See below for RZ1 sites in Deakin eligible for secondary dwellings as a red overlay under the ACT Government 2023 planning system changes that allow secondary dwellings of less than 120 square meters on RZ1 blocks greater than 800sqm.


The analysis for this map was undertaken for a Canberra Times article last year using publicly available ACT Government land data, Brendan Halloran provided Community Council stakeholders with an interactive map html file and jpg image for public information. The map removes excluded planning policy RZ1 blocks that were identified as Mr Fluffy dual resident blocks, existing multi-unit designated blocks and also blocks in suburbs such as Reid, Campbell, Braddon, Ainslie, Kingston, Barton, Griffith, Forrest and Red Hill where the blocks have existing residential precinct protection that does not allow secondary dwellings (despite the blocks being larger than 800sqm).

Map file developed by Brendan Halloran to inform the Canberra public, not as a personal or political statement on the policy.

Brendan Halloran used publicly available 2023 map data from the ACT Geospatial Data Catalogue (arcgis.com) that may not perfectly reflect the current land data.
