  • Section A: Introduction
    Overberg Spatial Development Framework March 2004 SECTION A: INTRODUCTION SECTION SYNOPSIS This section comprises of the following: a) Background information pertaining to the planning process. b) A reader's guide to terms used in the document. c) Key aspects of a Spatial Development Framework, including its definition, legal status, purposes and key elements. d) Summary of planning principles and core values that form the basis of the document. 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 BACKGROUND The Overberg District Municipality (further referred to as the ODM) during September 2002 appointed Dennis Moss Partnership Inc. to assist with the preparation of the Overberg Spatial Development Framework (Overberg SDF) as an integral part of the Overberg District Integrated Development Plan (IDP). A key requirement was that the project had to be undertaken in close collaboration with the 4 Category B municipalities that collectively form the ODM and that the planning process had to foster a spirit of co-operation between these municipalities. Full use was made of existing IDP forums as a basis for Interested and Affected Party (I&AP) consultation and participation. The planning process was undertaken in terms of inter alia the Municipal Systems Act, 2000 (Act 32 of 2000), and the Western Cape Planning and Development Act, 1999 (Act 7 of 1999). 1.2 PROJECT BRIEF In terms of the project brief, this SDF has to achieve the following: (a) Indicate the spatial implications of the IDP of the ODM. (b) Put forward development and management strategies, proposals and guidelines that will promote sustainable development in the ODM, including, without being limited to, development objectives, proposals for land reform, urban renewal, reconstruction, integration, environmental planning, transport planning, infrastructure planning, and urban design, so as to promote the general well-being of the people of the area in the most effective manner.
