Township establishment for Waverley properties

A proposed development requires a township rather than a simple subdivision of an existing erf.

Being in Waverley does not by itself decide whether township establishment is needed or likely to succeed. The erf's zoning, title conditions, servitudes, previous approvals and the applicable City of Tshwane policies decide that, and they can differ between neighbouring stands.

Where Waverley is

The closest areas in our list 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).

We group it with 44 other areas under Central & Northern Pretoria; that grouping is ours, not a municipal region.
