Building-line relaxations for Centurion properties
A structure or design conflicts with a planning building line or a relevant control.
The suburb name alone tells us little about building-line relaxations. For a Centurion stand we look at the zoning record, title deed restrictions, servitudes, approval history and the City's spatial policy for that location before advising.
Where Centurion is
Centurion is listed in our Surrounding Tshwane towns group, with Cullinan, Hammanskraal, Rayton and Bronkhorstspruit among its nearest neighbours in our register. Its exact position and boundary have not been confirmed yet. We group it with 4 other areas under Surrounding Tshwane towns; that grouping is ours, not a municipal region.
Questions we'd ask about your Centurion property
- Are there servitudes, building lines or earlier approvals on the property that affect the plan?
- Is the property part of a sectional title scheme, estate or home owners' association whose consent may be needed?
- Do the City of Tshwane spatial frameworks say anything specific about this part of Surrounding Tshwane towns?
- Have neighbouring properties in Centurion or Cullinan had similar applications approved or refused?
Checks before appointment
Confirm which instrument creates the restriction: scheme, title deed, servitude or approval. Check the existing building position and neighbouring impacts.
What the planner does
Prepare the relevant motivation and plans, identify notice requirements and coordinate with the designer. A building-line relaxation is not building-plan approval and cannot erase a servitude.
