Excision of agricultural holdings for Murrayfield properties
Development or registration needs may require a change in the holding’s legal status.
Two properties in Murrayfield can need quite different approaches to excision of agricultural holdings. 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 Murrayfield is
Murrayfield is listed in our Pretoria East & Old East group. The closest areas in our list are Newlands, Olympus, Persequor and Pretoriuspark. 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 Murrayfield property
- Do the City of Tshwane spatial frameworks say anything specific about this part of Pretoria East & Old East?
- Have neighbouring properties in Murrayfield or Newlands had similar applications approved or refused?
- What is the current zoning of the Murrayfield erf, and does it carry an annexure?
- Does the title deed contain conditions that conflict with the proposed excision of agricultural holdings?
Checks before appointment
Establish the registered holding, governing restrictions and proposed use. Excision and new land-use rights are different issues.
What the planner does
Determine the competent approval and registration requirements, motivate the planning aspects and coordinate linked rights and registration work.
