Purchase or lease of municipal land for Waterkloof Glen properties
An adjacent owner or developer wishes to acquire or lease City-owned land.
Two properties in Waterkloof Glen can need quite different approaches to purchase or lease of municipal land. 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.
