  • Swartland Municipality Integrated Development Plan for 2017-2022
    Swartland Municipality Integrated Development Plan for 2017-2022 THIRD AMENDMENT 28 MAY 2020 INTEGRATED DEVELOPMENT PLAN FOR 2017-2022 Compiled in terms of the Local Government: Municipal Systems Act, 2000 (Act 32 of 2000) Amendments approved by the Municipal Council on 28 May 2020 The Integrated Development Plan is the Municipality’s principal five year strategic plan that deals with the most critical development needs of the municipal area (external focus) as well as the most critical governance needs of the organisation (internal focus). The Integrated Development Plan – is adopted by the council within one year after a municipal election and remains in force for the council’s elected term (a period of five years); is drafted and reviewed annually in consultation with the local community as well as interested organs of state and other role players; guides and informs all planning and development, and all decisions with regard to planning, management and development; forms the framework and basis for the municipality’s medium term expenditure framework, annual budgets and performance management system; and seeks to promote integration by balancing the economic, ecological and social pillars of sustainability without compromising the institutional capacity required in the implementation, and by coordinating actions across sectors and spheres of government. AREA PLANS FOR 2020/2021 The five area plans, i.e. Swartland North (Moorreesburg and Koringberg), Swartland East (Riebeek West and Riebeek Kasteel), Swartland West (Darling and Yzerfontein), Swartland South (Abbotsdale, Chatsworth, Riverlands and Kalbaskraal) and Swartland Central (Malmesbury) help to ensure that the IDP is more targeted and relevant to addressing the priorities of all groups, including the most vulnerable.

The present geological period has more species than any other, yet the current rate of extinction of species is greater now than at any time in the past. Ecosystems and communities are being degraded and destroyed, and species are being driven to extinction. The species that persist are losing genetic variation as the number of individuals in populations shrinks, unique populations and subspecies are destroyed, and remaining populations become increasingly isolated from one another. The cause of this loss of biological diversity at all levels is the range of human activity that alters and destroys natural habitats to suit human needs.” (Primack, 2002). CapeNature launched its State of Biodiversity Programme (SoBP) to assess and monitor the state of biodiversity in the Western Cape in 1999. This programme delivered its first report in 2002 and these reports are updated every five years. The current report (2007) reports on the changes to the state of vertebrate biodiversity and land under conservation usage.

  • (Western Cape High Court, Cape Town) Case No
    Republic of South Africa IN THE HIGH COURT OF SOUTH AFRICA (WESTERN CAPE HIGH COURT, CAPE TOWN) CASE NO: 26078/2010 Before: The Hon. Mr Justice Binns-Ward In the matter between: BERG RIVER MUNICIPALITY Applicant and JACOBUS JOHANNES LIEBENBERG N.O. AND 86 OTHER PARTIES Respondents JUDGMENT DELIVERED: 25 AUGUST 2011 ______________________________________________________________ BINNS-WARD J: [1] The applicant, which is a municipality established in terms of the Local Government: Municipal Structures Act 117 of 1998 (‘the Structures Act’), has applied for eight declaratory orders. If granted, the declarators sought would be to the effect that the ‘rural levies’ imposed by it in respect of properties in its area in the 2001/2 and 2002/3 financial years were lawfully and validly imposed, as were the rates levied by it on rural property within its area in the 2003/4, 2004/5, 2005/6, 2006/7, 2007/8 and 2008/9 financial years. (In terms of the applicable statutory provisions, a municipality’s financial year has, during the entire period concerned, run between 2 1 July in each year and 30 June of the succeeding year.1) The orders are sought because it has been contended by the respondents, who make up a significant number of the owners of rural property within the municipal area, that the aforementioned imposts are invalid. [2] The respondents have declined to make payment of the assessed rural levies and rates and have defended enforcement proceedings instituted against them by the municipality in various magistrates’ courts in the municipal area. Both sides in the disputes have agreed that the current proceedings might afford a convenient means of cutting the Gordian knot; in particular, because they are also agreed that a determination of the alleged invalidity of the imposts is a matter beyond the jurisdiction of a magistrate’s court.

  • The Competitiveness of Western Cape Wheat Production: an International Comparison
    Agrekon, Vol 37, No 3 (September 1998) Vink, Kleynhans & Street THE COMPETITIVENESS OF WESTERN CAPE WHEAT PRODUCTION: AN INTERNATIONAL COMPARISON N. Vink1, T.E. Kleynhans2 and K. Street3 This paper reports the results of an international comparison of the cost of producing wheat in 8 Western Cape, 3 Free State and 7 foreign producing areas. Results show that South African yields are low compared to foreign countries whose production costs are as high as or higher than those in South Africa, while the net margins for South African producers are less than a third of those for countries that have the same or lower yields as South Africa. If the wheat industry in the Western Cape is to survive international competition, it will have to create its international competitiveness. DIE MEDEDINGENDHEID VAN KORINGPRODUKSIE IN DIE WES-KAAP: ’N INTERNASIONALE VERGELYKING. Hierdie artikel gee ’n opsomming van ’n onlangse studie wat die produksiekoste van koring in 8 Wes-Kaapse, 3 Vrystaatse en 7 oorsese produksiegebiede gemeet het. Daar is bevind dat opbrengste in Suid-Afrika laag is in vergelyking met lande met gelyke of hoër produksiekostes, terwyl die netto marge van Suid-Afrikaanse produsente minder as een derde is van mededingers wie se opbrengstes op die selfde vlak of laer is as in Suid-Afrika. Indien die koringbedryf in die Wes-Kaap wil oorleef, sal daadwerklike stappe geneem moet word om sy internasionale mededingendheid te skep. 1. INTRODUCTION The policy and practice of agricultural marketing in South Africa has changed rapidly over the past decade. Almost five years after the publication of the Kassier Report (Kassier, 1992), the new Marketing of Agricultural Products Act, No 47 of 1996 spells out a set of rules that differs greatly from earlier legislation.
