Scheme & spatial-framework matters for Onderstepoort properties
A policy proposal, framework review or scheme amendment affects a property or project.
Two properties in Onderstepoort can need quite different approaches to scheme & spatial-framework matters. 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.

Questions we'd ask about your Onderstepoort property
- Have neighbouring properties in Onderstepoort or Annlin had similar applications approved or refused?
- What is the current zoning of the Onderstepoort erf, and does it carry an annexure?
- Does the title deed contain conditions that conflict with the proposed scheme & spatial-framework matters?
- Are there servitudes, building lines or earlier approvals on the property that affect the plan?
