Purchase or lease of municipal land for Lydiana properties
An adjacent owner or developer wishes to acquire or lease City-owned land.
Two properties in Lydiana can need quite different approaches to purchase or lease of municipal land. 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 Lydiana is
Lydiana is listed in our Pretoria East & Old East group. The closest areas in our list are Lynnwood, Lynnwood Glen, Lynnwood Manor and Lynnwood Park. 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 Lydiana property
- Do the City of Tshwane spatial frameworks say anything specific about this part of Pretoria East & Old East?
- Have neighbouring properties in Lydiana or Lynnwood had similar applications approved or refused?
- What is the current zoning of the Lydiana erf, and does it carry an annexure?
- Does the title deed contain conditions that conflict with the proposed purchase or lease of municipal land?
Checks before appointment
Confirm ownership, public use, municipal disposal requirements and planning constraints. A planning application cannot compel a sale.
What the planner does
Assist with the planning motivation and implications, coordinate the relevant municipal property process and identify linked closure, subdivision or rights requirements.
