Rezoning for Riviera properties
A proposed office, business or residential development is not allowed by the existing rights.
Two properties in Riviera can need quite different approaches to rezoning. 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.
Where Riviera is
Riviera is listed in our Central & Northern Pretoria group. The closest areas in our list are Roseville, Silverton, Silvertondale and Sinoville. 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
- 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 Riviera or Roseville had similar applications approved or refused?
- What is the current zoning of the Riviera 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.

- Proposed use, intensity, parking and concept layout
