A number of these challenges considered and interpreted by the SDF include: • Integrating the urban spatial form municipality created under apartheid to separate townships from economic areas; • Addressing the services backlogs for the poorest of the poor and the market-related residential development property boom; • Providing an effective and affordable district-wide public transportation network that takes into account the reliance of the low-income communities on public transport (at a greater relative monthly cost) and conversely, the dependence of middle income communities on private modes; • Balancing and facilitating market and public sector development in an effective and co-ordinated manner; optimising the use of existing resources; • Determining and communicating reasonable and effective development policies and strategies; • Investing in infrastructure in a cost-effective and proactive fashion whilst ensuring that historical backlogs are addressed. The purpose of the SDF is not to infringe upon land rights but to guide future land uses. No proposals in this plan creates any land use right or exempt anyone from his or her obligation in terms of any other act controlling land uses.

Strong and growing support by sponsors and exhibitors helped create a satisfying variety which made a large part of the roughly 10000 visitors who came from far and wide stay much later than anticipated on both evenings. Stalls numbered well beyond 100 which was much better than the previous show held in 1998. As the Walkerville Agricultural Society is a non profit (Article 21) company, this year's healthy profit gets ploughed back into the 2014 show to the benefit of the whole community. Some events were exceedingly popular and should serve as a measure of the kind of events show goers want and enjoy. These include ox wagon rides on Hans Sturgeon's ox wagon dating from 1880 which took a few hundred trippers of all ages and ethnic What does the future hold? “Organisers started on the back foot this year and had to revive the show within six months,” Booyens points out.

All locals and all young, they included the Genysis group on the lawn outside as the guests were arriving, the Sicelo Primary School Choir (some surprising bass voices), the OWLAG choir, (pitch perfect as usual) and the Sophia Town troupe setting the tone for the dancing to follow after dinner.

  • Comparative Study on Metropolitan Governance PRESENTATION
    REPORT 2014 Comparative Study on Metropolitan Governance PRESENTATION The new world economic order is structured on a network of cities that in a competitive scenario share the same desire: to ensure good quality of life for its inhabitants, to have good functional performance and ability to attract new investments. The challenge has mobilized governments around the world in the search for solutions to their global metropolises. After all, these are complex places that while concentrate numerous opportunities also generate profound inequalities. Three years ago, the São Paulo Company for Metropolitan Planning – Emplasa – started to coordinate the Metropolis Initiave on Metropolitan Governance, developing comparative researches and technical works with over 19 partners representing metropolitan regions of Brazil and the world. As a result, now we present the Study of Metropolitan Governance, focusing on viable alternatives for metropolitan projects. The material identifies the different international practices and brings the partners experiences and lessons learned related to governance and funding of metropolitan projects. The work is not restricted to a purely theoretical approach of the topic. The idea is to list the practical cases capable of being replicated, with the appropriate adaption, to other metropolitan regions. Emplasa is a reference public company when it comes to metropolitan planning and has been signing their positioning at the state, national and international scene, getting to know new projects that can improve the already conducted practices and offer their expertise to other regions and countries. With an active global insertion, Emplasa participated in several Metropolis events presenting our internal projects and the work from the Initiative on Metropolitan Governance.
