The Weerona College site in Wollongong could be demolished for six apartment blocks. The development application is on public exhibition until October 23.
Five of the buildings would hold 230 units, including 35 affordable rental apartments. The sixth building would offer 84 co-living rooms, bringing the total to 315 rooms or units.
The six buildings would range from six to 13 storeys high. A total of 258 car parking spaces would be included via basement parking.
A separate report has been lodged to change the maximum height from nine metres to 58 metres. The traffic study says the development will generate 142 vehicle trips during the weekday morning peak.
