Message from the CEO

It is my great pleasure to introduce Landcom’s FY23 Sustainability Report. This year marks six years of us working towards the leadership goals and targets in our Sustainable Places Strategy.

This report demonstrates our continued commitment to make a positive difference in people’s lives across NSW by increasing the supply, affordability and diversity of housing and creating sustainable communities.

The rising cost of living and rapid changes to our everyday lives have placed unprecedented pressure on households. At the same time there is rapid innovation and growing momentum to deliver a climate positive future. We are extremely proud of what we have achieved over the last five years, and now move into the second half of our 10-year Sustainable Places Strategy.

As we propel ourselves towards our 2028 commitment to enable carbon neutral, water positive, zero waste and net positive ecological communities, we acknowledge that there are still barriers that stand in our way. To fully achieve these goals there must be greater innovation to enable energy sharing in residential communities, greater collaboration between trunk infrastructure providers, and rising consumer demand for a more sustainable way to live.

Despite this, we remain committed to our goals. Landcom deliberately challenges itself and the development industry to accelerate emissions reduction and lower the cost of living for people in NSW.

We are excited to see our first all-electric communities emerging from planning and design, into construction and sales.
