There is an existing right of way for the
public. The fact that additional land has
been reclaimed from the sea in front of erf
848 does not entitle the developer or
anyone else to appropriate the existing right
of way for their own purposes. They have
no more right to that ground than I have!
Erf 848 in Struisbaai was not planned to be
a residential property rather as a fish
handling facility with later modifications to
allow for the Pelican restaurant operation.
It would be reasonable for the proponent to
re-develop the current site within the current
regulations and planning guidelines
including height and coverage restrictions to
accommodate other food and small shop
facilities
A high rise building for whatever purpose on
the most prominent and most visited
position on the unspoiled seafront of
Struisbaai is ridiculous.
The proposed development would violate
many legal issues and I am sure the Cliffe
Decker submission will cover this.
Referring to the Need and desirability”. The
statement that “strategic documents such
as the Spatial Development
Framework……….support the development”
is not true. The current SDF (2005), as well
as the 1992 Structure Plan for Struisbaai,
does not provide for this type of high density
development.
The SDF is currently being revised. None of
the suggestions made by consultants in the
review document makes provision for the
type of development planned for erf 848. In
fact, the document notes that coastal
developments must adhere to national
requirements, including that developments
must take place based on the capacity of
municipal infrastructure
Please refer to Section 1.1.13 of this
Comment and Response Report.
As there were amendments to cater for
Pelicans so to would further amendments be
required to the title deeds. Please refer to
Sections 1.4, 2.6 and 2.7 of the FEIR.
Your concern is noted. Please refer to Section
2.7 of the FEIR.
The final development would need to comply
with all legislation. Please refer to Sections
1.3, 1.6, 2.6 and 2.7 of the FEIR.
Please refer to Sections 1.4 of the FEIR. A
new SDF has been passed in accordance
with the Municipal Systems Act as of
December 2009. The 2009 CAM SDF
promotes development within the urban edge,
of which Erf 848 is located.
Please refer to Section 1.3.5, 1.3.8, 1.4, 2.6,
2.7 and 7.5 of the FEIR.
