Rezoning for Waverley properties
A proposed office, business or residential development is not allowed by the existing rights.
Two properties in Waverley 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 Waverley is
From our register: Waverley lies roughly 9 km north-east of Church Square in central Pretoria; nearby are East Lynne (about 1.9 km), Môregloed (about 2.1 km), Jan Niemand Park (about 2.5 km) and Queenswood (about 3.1 km). Distances are straight-line estimates from a GeoNames point, not boundaries. Also known as . 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 Waverley property
- What is the current zoning of the Waverley erf, and does it carry an annexure?
- Does the title deed contain conditions that conflict with the proposed rezoning?
- 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?
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.
Information to gather

- Title deed and available servitude records
- Owner consent and power of attorney at appointment
- Proposed use, intensity, parking and concept layout
Cost categories
No fixed rand amount or approval date is promised; scope and municipal processing vary.
- Professional planning fees
- Municipal application or record charges
- Advertising and notification, where required
- Traffic, engineering, environmental or other specialists
- Implementation conditions and possible services contributions
- VAT treatment to be confirmed in the quotation
