Township establishment for Lynnwood Park properties
A proposed development requires a township rather than a simple subdivision of an existing erf.
Being in Lynnwood Park does not by itself decide whether township establishment 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.

- Have neighbouring properties in Lynnwood Park or Lynnwood Ridge had similar applications approved or refused?
