Rezoning for Queenswood properties
A proposed office, business or residential development is not allowed by the existing rights.
Being in Queenswood does not by itself decide whether rezoning 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 Queenswood is

Questions we'd ask about your Queenswood 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 Queenswood or Colbyn had similar applications approved or refused?
- What is the current zoning of the Queenswood erf, and does it carry an annexure?
Checks before appointment
Compare the precise proposed use with the scheme use table and any property-specific annexure. A different activity does not always require rezoning.
What the planner does
A written motivation addresses the proposal, spatial policy, surrounding uses, access, parking and services. New rights may carry conditions that must be implemented before use starts.
