Purchase or lease of municipal land for Erasmusrand properties
An adjacent owner or developer wishes to acquire or lease City-owned land.
Being in Erasmusrand does not by itself decide whether purchase or lease of municipal land is needed or likely to succeed. The erf's zoning, title conditions, servitudes, previous approvals and the applicable City of Tshwane policies decide that, and they can differ between neighbouring stands.

- Do the City of Tshwane spatial frameworks say anything specific about this part of Pretoria East & Old East?

- What is the current zoning of the Erasmusrand erf, and does it carry an annexure?

- Owner consent and power of attorney at appointment
Cost categories
No fixed rand amount or approval date is promised; scope and municipal processing vary.
- Professional planning fees
- Municipal application or record charges
