Claims citing this document

  • VerifiedEditor-approved Stellenbosch Municipality's Municipal Planning Tribunal resolved on 20 August 2021 (application LU/10313) to approve the subdivision of Farm Cloetesdal No. 81/29 into three portions and the rezoning of Portion 1 (about 2.24 ha) from Agriculture and Rural Zone to Subdivisional Area for multi-unit residential and private open space, with the road portions rezoned for public roads. A departure to raise density from 50 to 71 dwelling units per hectare was 'NOT BE CONSIDERED' at that stage. Condition 3.3 reads: 'Inclusionary housing be considered to expand housing opportunity for a broader range of income groups.' The reasons include that the land is within the urban edge and in line with 'the Northern Extension Project's vision', and that matters raised by the Stellenbosch Ratepayers Association 'were considered and addressed'.
