2.3. That, notwithstanding the land uses stipulated in the table included with condition 2.2, the Developer may exercise the full range of primary use rights stipulated in the Development Management Scheme for the Mixed Use Zone allocated to Phase 1, provided that a Transport Impact Statement is submitted as required with condition 2.13 below.

REASONS FOR DECISION:

The MPT APPROVED the application for the reasons set out in the Planner’s report except reasons 7.1.1 and 7.1.3 are amended as follows and added two additional reasons:

7.1.1. The proposed industrial and mixed land uses are considered compatible with the predominant industrial and utility character of the surrounding area. The location of the proposed mixed use zone and requirement for suitable landscaping along Pallotti Road can ensure a suitable interface with the adjoining Montana residential area.
7.1.3. Specialist engineering reports have identified new infrastructure and upgrades to existing infrastructure that are required for all engineering services as well as the road network and these have been included with the conditions of approval of the application.
7.1.8 The deviation from the Tygerberg District Plan is supported because the property is no longer used as a golf course and the proposed use is considered appropriate.
7.1.9 The proposed use is in compliance with the MSDF.
