Consent use & special consent for Waverley properties
The proposed activity appears in the relevant consent-use category rather than as a primary right.
Two properties in Waverley can need quite different approaches to consent use & special consent. 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.

Questions we'd ask about your Waverley 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 Central & Northern Pretoria?
- Have neighbouring properties in Waverley or East Lynne had similar applications approved or refused?
Checks before appointment
Obtain the current zoning and confirm the exact defined use, scale and conditions. Guesthouses, educational uses and home activities are not automatically consent uses on every erf.
What the planner does
Prepare the use description and supporting motivation, identify required notice procedures and respond to municipal comments. Consent is normally tied to conditions; it is not a blanket change of zoning.

- Advertising and notification, where required
- Implementation conditions and possible services contributions
- VAT treatment to be confirmed in the quotation
