CONDITIONS IMPOSED IN TERMS OF SECTION 100 OF THE MUNICIPAL PLANNING BY-LAW, 2015:

Condition 2.2.1 is amended as follows:

DEVELOPMENT CONTRIBUTION

2.2.1 The owner/developer shall pay a development charge (DC) in accordance with the approved Development Charges Policy for Engineering Services for the City of Cape Town. The total amount payable for the proposed land use right in accordance with the attached DC calculation is R 31 371.37. It must be noted that this amount is valid until 2018-06-30 and that the amount due will be escalated annually with the Construction Price Adjustment Formula (CPAF) using the industry indices of StatsSA. The DC is payable prior to approval of building plans relating to the guest house or within 30 days of the approval of this application, whichever occurs first.

REASONS FOR DECISION:

The MPTSW Panel approved the reasons in the planner’s report and added an additional reason that reads as follows:

7.1.11 Reduction of Development Contribution (DC) from R 62 742.74 to R 31 371.37 is based on the submission of the Section Head that the DC should have been calculated on the basis of 6 guest rooms rather than 9.
