Housing development programmes
HCM City hopes to increase per capita housing availability to 16.8 square metres this year from 16.4sq.m last year, according to its Department of Construction.
To achieve this target, the city plans to speed up its housing development programmes and build an additional 8 million square feet this year.

How would you understand the meaning of "development" here?
1. the process of planning and building new houses on land
2. a group of new buildings that have all been planned and built together on the same piece of land
3. an area on which new buildings are built in order to make a profit
I would choose #1. However, it is a bit confusing.
Thank you.
