Town Planning and Building Control
This Division deals with Spatial Planning, Land Use Management and Building Control within the administrative area.
town planning
Town Planning in the local government sphere comprises two key components. A pro-active / strategic spatial planning component, to guide and direct future growth and development; and a statutory control / regulatory component, to maintain and manage land use rights, and to ensure that the right things are built in the right place. The two components are guided by a comprehensive legislative framework drawn up at a national, provincial and local level, contingent on the nature of the outcome to be achieved.
Building Control deals primarily with the receipt, consideration and approval of building plans, but also includes the inspection of approved building operations and the issuing of occupation certificates. Building Control also responds to illegal building operations and the transgression of related legislative requirements.
- Provision of Land use advice and information, in relation to the applicable legislation;
- Processing of Land use planning applications and issuing of various approvals and permissions;
- Issuing of zoning certificates for individual properties;
- Issuing of building plan approvals and permits, also for minor building work;
- Issuing of permits for temporary structures, demolition and hoarding, as part of building operations;
- Building inspections and issuing of occupancy certificates for work completed;
- Enforcement of building and Land use regulations and standards;
- Investigation and resolution of complaints and contraventions regarding illegal building work and Land use;
- Provision of copies of approved building plans and zoning plans.
