- VerifiedEditor-approved The Young Urbanists' petition update of 22 Aug 2024 said a 727-page report recommending approval of the Eikestad multistorey garage had been added to the agenda of the 23 Aug 2024 Council meeting, argued that a full Heritage Impact Assessment and independent review had not been done and that the garage contradicts the municipality's SDF 2019, CITP 2022-2026 and NMT Master Plan 2020, said the report "dismisses the objections" raised by the Stellenbosch Interest Group, Young Urbanists, Active Mobility Forum, Stellenbosch Fietsry, Stellenbosch Ratepayers Association and others, and said that "over 3,000 signatures" (the petitioners' own count) and "countless objections" had been ignored. The council item (23 Aug 2024) said comments from the public "have been largely addressed" and the Infrastructure directorate said the development "aligns with the approved CITP".
