Excision of agricultural holdings for Waterkloof properties
Development or registration needs may require a change in the holding’s legal status.
The suburb name alone tells us little about excision of agricultural holdings. For a Waterkloof 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 Waterkloof is
Waterkloof lies roughly 7 km south-east of Church Square in central Pretoria, with Brooklyn (about 1.6 km), Newlands (about 2.3 km), Waterkloof Glen (about 2.4 km) and Groenkloof (about 2.5 km) among its nearest neighbours in our register. Distances are straight-line estimates from a GeoNames point, not boundaries. We group it with 57 other areas under Pretoria East & Old East; that grouping is ours, not a municipal region.
Questions we'd ask about your Waterkloof property
- 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?
- Do the City of Tshwane spatial frameworks say anything specific about this part of Pretoria East & Old East?
- Have neighbouring properties in Waterkloof or Brooklyn had similar applications approved or refused?
Checks before appointment
Establish the registered holding, governing restrictions and proposed use. Excision and new land-use rights are different issues.
What the planner does
Determine the competent approval and registration requirements, motivate the planning aspects and coordinate linked rights and registration work.
