Purchase or lease of municipal land for Mountain View properties
An adjacent owner or developer wishes to acquire or lease City-owned land.
Two properties in Mountain View 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 Mountain View is
Mountain View is listed in our Central & Northern Pretoria group, with Môregloed, Muckleneuk, Onderstepoort and Parktown Estate among its nearest neighbours in our register. 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 Mountain View 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 Mountain View or Môregloed had similar applications approved or refused?
- What is the current zoning of the Mountain View erf, and does it carry an annexure?
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.
