2011 Discussion on Funding for Pemulway Housing Project in Redfern
What happened
In January 2011, councillors from the City of Sydney met with representatives from a Federal Government agency to discuss funding for the Aboriginal Housing Company's Pemulway Project in Redfern. Chris Harris advocated for establishing a consortium to bankroll the project, which involves building 62 units and townhouses. The Aboriginal Housing Company supported the consortium idea, noting previous difficulties agreeing on key details with the Redfern Waterloo Authority.

Why it matters
The discussion focused on securing funding for a major housing redevelopment in Redfern. The proposal for a consortium incorporating government and private funding suggests a potential model for large-scale urban property investment and housing supply in Sydney.
