  2. Obtain a zoning certificate or the scheme record from the City of Tshwane.
  3. Read the applicable Land Use Scheme provisions and any annexure for the erf.
  4. Check the title deed for restrictive conditions and servitudes.
  5. Check previous approvals, building plans and any contravention notices.

If the zoning does not allow your plan

Depending on the proposal, a consent use, rezoning, removal of restrictive conditions or building-line relaxation may be options. None is automatic.
