Building-line relaxations for Proclamation Hill properties
A structure or design conflicts with a planning building line or a relevant control.
Two properties in Proclamation Hill can need quite different approaches to building-line relaxations. 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 Proclamation Hill property
- Are there servitudes, building lines or earlier approvals on the property that affect the plan?
- 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 Pretoria West & Akasia?
- Have neighbouring properties in Proclamation Hill or Rosslyn had similar applications approved or refused?
Checks before appointment
Confirm which instrument creates the restriction: scheme, title deed, servitude or approval. Check the existing building position and neighbouring impacts.
What the planner does
Prepare the relevant motivation and plans, identify notice requirements and coordinate with the designer. A building-line relaxation is not building-plan approval and cannot erase a servitude.

- Current zoning information
- Title deed and available servitude records
- Owner consent and power of attorney at appointment
