Purchase or lease of municipal land for Mamelodi properties
An adjacent owner or developer wishes to acquire or lease City-owned land.
Being in Mamelodi 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.
Where Mamelodi is
From our register: Mamelodi lies roughly 18 km east of Church Square in central Pretoria; nearby are Mamelodi West (about 1.6 km), Mamelodi East (about 4.0 km), Nellmapius (about 4.0 km) and Eersterust (about 5.1 km). Distances are straight-line estimates from a GeoNames point, not boundaries. We group it with 12 other areas under Wider Pretoria service areas; that grouping is ours, not a municipal region.
Questions we'd ask about your Mamelodi property
- Do the City of Tshwane spatial frameworks say anything specific about this part of Wider Pretoria service areas?
- Have neighbouring properties in Mamelodi or Mamelodi West had similar applications approved or refused?
- What is the current zoning of the Mamelodi 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
