Site development plans for Riviera properties
An approval or scheme provision requires an SDP before construction or operation.
The suburb name alone tells us little about site development plans. For a Riviera 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 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
- 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?
- Does the title deed contain conditions that conflict with the proposed site development plans?
- Are there servitudes, building lines or earlier approvals on the property that affect the plan?
Checks before appointment
Read the rights and conditions, establish the design brief and check parking, circulation, access, landscaping and engineering information.
What the planner does
Coordinate the planning layout with architects and engineers, track submission comments and check consistency with the approved rights. Architectural and engineering design are distinct appointments.
