intergovernmental or public-private sector service level agreements.<br />

• Spatial development frameworks (SDFs) seem to remain focused on managing<br />

expected land-use change driven by the private sector, rather than on coordinating<br />

intergovernmental investment, spatial prioritisation and integrated spatial development<br />

strategies, or influencing the spatial investment logic of different sector strategies/line<br />

departments.<br />

• Most of the plans and instruments focus strongly on service delivery but do not<br />

include investment plans of the private sector, other government agencies or civil<br />

society. The many economic instruments and incentives aimed at stimulating<br />

development seem to be implemented as standalone programmes.<br />

• Collaboration in developing integrated development strategies and aligning projects<br />

exists at municipal (or at least city and district) level. However, municipal spatial<br />

priorities do not appear to guide those of national and provincial functional sectors or<br />

even municipal line departments.<br />
