The Campbelltown City Council approved a plan in January 2026 to turn three existing properties into 12 new residential lots in Macquarie Fields, New South Wales. This decision means that older buildings on the site will be knocked down to make room for more homes to be built in the established neighborhood.
According to the official Development Approvals for 2026, the project involves significant site work beyond just the new houses. Workers will install new drainage systems, build retaining walls, and create new driveways to support the increased number of residents on the land.
The plan also includes one residue lot, which is a piece of land often set aside for public roads or community purposes under the Campbelltown Local Environmental Plan 2015. Neighbors can expect to see demolition and building activity soon, which will likely bring some temporary noise and short-term traffic impacts to the immediate area.
This move is part of a larger effort to grow the local housing supply by putting more homes on existing urban blocks. Residents interested in seeing the specific site maps and consent documents can access them through the council’s public development records.
