Township establishment for Eersterust properties
A proposed development requires a township rather than a simple subdivision of an existing erf.
Two properties in Eersterust can need quite different approaches to township establishment. 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 Eersterust is
Eersterust lies roughly 13 km east of Church Square in central Pretoria. The closest areas in our list are Waltloo (about 2.0 km), Silverton (about 2.3 km), Jan Niemand Park (about 3.2 km) and East Lynne (about 3.7 km). Distances are straight-line estimates from a GeoNames point, not boundaries. Also known as , Eersterus. We group it with 12 other areas under Wider Pretoria service areas; that grouping is ours, not a municipal region.
Questions we'd ask about your Eersterust property
- Does the title deed contain conditions that conflict with the proposed township establishment?
- 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 Wider Pretoria service areas?
