Agricultural-land subdivision for Hillcrest properties
A landowner proposes separately owned portions of agricultural land.
The suburb name alone tells us little about agricultural-land subdivision. For a Hillcrest 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 Hillcrest is
Hillcrest is listed in our Pretoria East & Old East group, with La Montagne, Lydiana, Lynnwood and Lynnwood Glen among its nearest neighbours in our register. Its exact position and boundary have not been confirmed yet. We group it with 57 other areas under Pretoria East & Old East; that grouping is ours, not a municipal region.
Questions we'd ask about your Hillcrest 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 Pretoria East & Old East?
- Have neighbouring properties in Hillcrest or La Montagne had similar applications approved or refused?
Checks before appointment
Verify the legal land status and applicable national agricultural framework as well as municipal planning requirements. Farm description alone does not resolve the application route.
What the planner does
Coordinate the planning investigation and application sequence with qualified land and agricultural specialists, surveyors and conveyancers as required. Municipal approval may not be the only approval.
