Planning appeals for Deerness properties
An applicant or eligible affected party wishes to challenge a decision.
Two properties in Deerness can need quite different approaches to planning appeals. What counts is the individual erf: its zoning and any annexure, the title deed conditions, registered servitudes, earlier approvals and the City of Tshwane policy that applies to its location.
Where Deerness is
From our register: Deerness is listed in our Central & Northern Pretoria group; nearby are Doornpoort, East Lynne, Eloffsdal and Gezina. Its exact position and boundary have not been confirmed yet. We group it with 44 other areas under Central & Northern Pretoria; that grouping is ours, not a municipal region.
Questions we'd ask about your Deerness 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 Central & Northern Pretoria?
- Have neighbouring properties in Deerness or Doornpoort had similar applications approved or refused?
Checks before appointment
Obtain the full decision, reasons, notice and applicable appeal provisions immediately. Time limits and standing must be confirmed from the governing instrument.
What the planner does
Assess planning grounds and evidence, coordinate with legal advisers where necessary and prepare the planning submission. Do not assume every decision is appealable by every person.
