Township establishment for Les Marais properties

A proposed development requires a township rather than a simple subdivision of an existing erf.

Two properties in Les Marais 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 Les Marais is

From our register: Les Marais is listed in our Central & Northern Pretoria group; nearby are Lisdogan Park, Magalieskruin, Mayville and Montana. 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 Les Marais property

  • 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 Les Marais or Lisdogan Park had similar applications approved or refused?
  • What is the current zoning of the Les Marais erf, and does it carry an annexure?

Checks before appointment

Investigate land status, policy, environmental constraints, access and engineering-service capacity before committing to a layout.

What the planner does

Coordinate a layout, planning motivation and specialist inputs, follow the municipal application and explain proclamation, services and registration conditions. Specialist appointments are quoted separately.
