Permission applications for Riviera properties
An express scheme provision provides a permission route for the particular proposal.
Being in Riviera does not by itself decide whether permission applications 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 Riviera is
Riviera is listed in our Central & Northern Pretoria group, with Roseville, Silverton, Silvertondale and Sinoville among its nearest neighbours in our register. Its exact position and boundary have not been confirmed yet. 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 Riviera property
- What is the current zoning of the Riviera erf, and does it carry an annexure?
- Does the title deed contain conditions that conflict with the proposed permission applications?
- 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?
Checks before appointment
Identify the provision authorising permission. Do not interchange permission, consent and rezoning merely because all involve a municipal application.
What the planner does
Confirm the relevant provision, assemble the prescribed supporting information and explain why the proposal meets its tests. Related approvals remain separate.
