Maphumulo Idp 2015/16 Review ABSTRACT The role of IDPs in South Africa has improved significantly over the past years as compared to the period of its early introduction after the promulgation of the Municipal Systems Act. As now commonly understood, Integrated Development Planning is a process through which the municipality prepares a strategic development plan which extends over a five year period. The IDP together with the Performance Management System and budgetary requirements are tools/instruments that have been identified to assist municipalities in providing service delivery in their communities and MAPHUMULO IDP achieve the notion of a developmental local government. 2015/16 REVIEW Version 4.5 MAPHUMULO IDP 2015/16 REVIEW TABLE OF CONTENT TABLE OF CONTENT ............................................................................................ 1 GRAPHS ............................................................................................................... 6 TABLES ................................................................................................................. 7 MAPS ................................................................................................................... 8 LIST OF ABBREVIATIONS .................................................................................... 9 FOREWORD BY HER WORSHIP THE MAYOR ................................................... 10 SECTION A: EXECUTIVE SUMMARY ................................................................ 11 1.1 WHO ARE WE ............................................................................................ 11 1.2 MAPHUMULO AT A GLANCE – KEY DEMOGRAPHIC STATISTICS . 12 1.3 NUMBER OF WARDS AND TRADITIONAL AUTHORITY AREAS ........ 13 1.4 HOW THE PLAN- WAS DEVELOPED. .................................................... 16 1.5 DATES FROM PUBLIC PARTICIPATION MEETINGS ............................. 17 1.6 KEY CHALLENGES AND OPPORTUNITIES ........................................... 21 1.7 WHAT IS OUR LONG TERM VISION ....................................................... 22 1.8 WHAT ARE WE DOING TO UNLOCK AND ADDRESS KEY CHALLENGES ........................................................................................................ 22 1.9 WHAT COULD YOU EXPECT FROM US ................................................ 27 1.10 HOW WILL OUR PROGRESS BE MEASURED?

This quarter’s edition not only describes historical trends but also takes a brief look at the future of iLembe through the eyes of district planners. Their plan looks forward 30 years to an iLembe that is thriving of the back of large scale agricultural, manufacturing, resort, and renewable energy investments. The result is a highly connected and integrated district, where Ballito and KwaDukuza have formed a metro, and the north coast has become the tourism destination of choice. Readers are asked to comment on this future scenario and the steps needed to get there. This quarter’s report provides also an update on the work we, at Enterprise iLembe, are doing.

DANIEL FEBRUARY 2003 DEDICATION I dedicate this study to my son and my mother. To my son, Nhlahla Eugine Mhlongo, it is your presence in this universe that predominantly motivated me to further my education. To my mother, Mildred Funani Mhlongo, your wisdom extends beyond formal education. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS First and foremost, I thank God for making the impossible a reality. I would also like to sincerely thank my ancestors who are always with me in my all endeavors. I therefore say to them "Bonjomane Ka Mgabhi" your spirit will always live on. To my family and friends, I know how dedicated you are to me, thanks for supporting me and thanks once again for your understanding and co-operation. I will be assassinating my own character and undermining my own integrity if I do not begin by extending my sincere appreciation to my supervisor, Professor John Daniel, who directed this study and provided guidance, encouragement and support to me. Thanks once again for your constant dedication and sacrifice. The words of thanks are also extended to all who participated and made this project a success, more especially to my research assistants, the respondents as well as the interviewees.
