  • John Taolo Gaetsewe Disrict Integrated Human Settlement Sector Plan
    Choose a building block. || JOHN TAOLO GAETSEWE DISTRICT MUNICIPALITY INTEGRATED HUMAN SETTLEMENTS SECTOR PLAN FINAL REPORT 2019/20 JOHN TAOLO GAETSEWE INTEGRATED HUMAN SETTLEMENTS SECTOR PLAN 2019-2024 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Over the past decades South Africa has embarked on building a better life for all by providing and basic services as constitutional requirements. In terms of Section 9 (1)(f) of the Housing Act, 1997 (Act No. 107 of 1997) “Every municipality must, as part of the municipality’s process of integrated development planning, take all reasonable and necessary steps within the framework of national and provincial housing legislation and policy to initiate, plan, co-ordinate, facilitate, promote and enable appropriate housing development in its area of jurisdiction”. Municipalities are expected to prepare and adopt Integrated Development Plans (IDPs) as the basis for planning and coordinating service delivery. Within the IDP certain sector plans also need to be prepared, and the Integrated Human Settlements Sector Plan, is one of these. The Integrated Human Settlements Sector Plan is part of the IDP process and stands as a chapter within a municipality’s IDP; it is not a stand-alone plan resulting from a separate planning process. The Integrated Human Settlements Sector Plan aims to provide the strategic direction for transforming human settlements in the John Taolo Gaetsewe District aligned to the Provincial Department. This transformation relate to accelerating human settlement delivery on well-located land, that provide opportunities to beneficiaries to access the property market and have sufficient access to social amenities and economic opportunities. This transformation will further support the integration of communities and the spatial restructuring of the towns and villages in the Municipal area.
