  • 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.

  • Section 5 Industrial Market Analysis
    Saldanha Development Zone Pre-Feasibility Analysis - Final Report _OCTOBER 2009 SECTION 5 INDUSTRIAL MARKET ANALYSIS 5.1 INTRODUCTION CHAPTER 7: INDUSTRIAL ANALYSI Saldanha has developed into the largest industrial centre along the West Coast and there is further growth potential in the downstream steel manufacturing sector, agricultural sector and the mining sector, which can lead to job creation. Further growth potential in the oil and gas industries along the coast could also alter the function of the area. As a cautionary note it may be added that the town operates within a particularly sensitive marine and atmospheric environment highly vulnerable to air and water pollution. Great care will have to be taken to ensure sustainable maintenance of a healthy environment. The town is fully dependent on the already heavily taxed Berg River for its water supply - a strategically vulnerable limitation in terms of possible development. Apart from creating a vibrant industrial sector and supportive services and infrastructure, development in the region should also focus on creating a quality of life that contributes to a productive labour force and a favourable working-playing-living environment. This includes initiatives for human resource development, community empowerment, local economic development and basic infrastructure provision. In order to determine the development opportunities that can be exploited for the purpose of industrial establishment in the IDZ, it is necessary to assess the potential provided by existing economic activities in the province, as well as to identify opportunities through planned development initiatives in the country. Linked to this, are the current international market trends in product trading, the potential of establishing industries in the value chain of existing production lines and the potential of products to be manufactured competitively in South Africa (refer to Annexure A : Industrial Market Overview / Indicators).

    Bothalia 41,1: 1–40 (2011) Systematics and biology of the African genus Ferraria (Iridaceae: Irideae) P . GOLDBLATT* and J .C . MANNING** Keywords: Ferraria Burm . ex Mill ., floral biology, Iridaceae, new species, taxonomy, tropical Africa, winter rainfall southern Africa ABSTRACT Following field and herbarium investigation of the subequatorial African and mainly western southern African Ferraria Burm . ex Mill . (Iridaceae: Iridoideae), a genus of cormous geophytes, we recognize 18 species, eight more than were included in the 1979 account of the genus by M .P . de Vos . One of these, F. ovata, based on Moraea ovata Thunb . (1800), was only discovered to be a species of Ferraria in 2001, and three more are the result of our different view of De Vos’s taxonomy . In tropical Africa, F. glutinosa is recircumscribed to include only mid- to late summer-flowering plants, usually with a single basal leaf and with purple to brown flowers often marked with yellow . A second summer-flowering species,F. candelabrum, includes taller plants with several basal leaves . Spring and early summer-flowering plants lacking foliage leaves and with yellow flowers from central Africa are referred toF. spithamea or F. welwitschii respectively . The remaining species are restricted to western southern Africa, an area of winter rainfall and summer drought . We rec- ognize three new species: F. flavaand F. ornata from the sandveld of coastal Namaqualand, and F. parva, which has among the smallest flowers in the genus and is restricted to the Western Cape coastal plain between Ganzekraal and Langrietvlei near Hopefield . Ferraria ornata blooms in May and June in response to the first rains of the season .

View of Vredendal North, 2.5kms away Layout pattern • Vredendal comprises three distinct components: - Vredendal South, the original settlement, located at a crossing point over the Olifants River and situated on fertile land in the flood plain. It is hemmed in on all sides by highly productive agricultural land watered by the irrigation system; - Across the river raised above Vredendal South on a low plateau is Vredendal North, a large apartheid dormitory area inhabited by the town’s Coloured and Black people; and - Between the two, at the junction of the R362 to Lutzville and R27 to Vanrhynsdorp and Klawer are the rail station and an industrial and civic area.
