Renewable-energy land-use applications for Rietfontein properties
A landowner or developer proposes solar, wind, storage or associated infrastructure.
The suburb name alone tells us little about renewable-energy land-use applications. For a Rietfontein stand we look at the zoning record, title deed restrictions, servitudes, approval history and the City's spatial policy for that location before advising.
Where Rietfontein is
Rietfontein lies roughly 6 km north-east of Church Square in central Pretoria. The closest areas in our list are Innesdale (about 1.3 km), Villieria (about 1.4 km), Môregloed (about 1.9 km) and Wonderboom South (about 2.2 km).

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 Rietfontein property
- Do the City of Tshwane spatial frameworks say anything specific about this part of Central & Northern Pretoria?
- Have neighbouring properties in Rietfontein or Innesdale had similar applications approved or refused?
- What is the current zoning of the Rietfontein erf, and does it carry an annexure?
- Does the title deed contain conditions that conflict with the proposed renewable-energy land-use applications?
