Knox Council has adopted a new measure of calculating social housing needs up to 2030.

Knox Affordable Housing Reference Group chairman Cr Mick Van de Vreede said a report tendered at last week's council meeting did not mean the council could create social housing itself, but would add weight to its advocacy and conversations with government and social housing providers.

The new measures would also help guide future decision-making on use of council-owned land and private development.
