  • Lessons from the Impacts of an Environmental Offsets on the Durban Aerotropolis Master Plan from a Spatial Planning Perspective
    Lessons from the impacts of an Environmental Offsets on the Durban Aerotropolis Master Plan from a Spatial Planning perspective. Authors: Letebele, Emmanuel and Nkosi, Sabelo B. eThekwini Municipality, Development Planning, Environment and Management Unit, 166 KE Masinga Road, Durban, 4001, KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa The paper will be presented under the Session: 15a Integrating biodiversity and ecosystem services into the mitigation hierarchy Introduction The City of Durban within eThekwini Municipality is located on the east coast of South Africa in the province of KwaZulu Natal (Figure 1). Durban is a modern multi-faceted fast growing metropolitan city within eThekwini Municipality. King Shaka International Airport is situated within the Northern Municipal Region and it is the core of the proposed Durban Aerotropolis City. The Durban Aerotropolis Master Plan is in the process of being developed. This plan seeks to promote the appropriate development of land around the airport and to ensure planning alignment between various government departments. The Durban Aerotropolis Master Plan is founded on a series of different study areas ranging from a 1 hour travel distance to King Shaka International Airport, to a series of Satellite Zones, to the Aerotropolis “core”, which is also referred to as the Aerotropolis City. The focus area for this paper will be the Aerotropolis City with King Shaka International Airport (KSIA) as the core of the Aerotropolis City.

  • Mt Moreland Rezoning Report July 2010-1
    ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT DEPARTMENT July 2010 REPORT TO TOWN PLANNING COMMITTEE PROPOSED AMENDMENT OF THE UMHLANGA No 1 TOWN PLANNING SCHEME BY THE ZONING OF THE MOUNT MORELAND INKONJANE AREA FOR MIXED USE AND OTHER PURPOSES IN TERMS OF SECTION 13(1)(A) OF THE PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT ACT NO 6 OF 2008. File Reference: ………………. 1. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The new King Shaka International Airport (KSIA) lies approximately 35 kilometres north of Durban. The airport precinct is bordered by the MR 43 to the north, the Mhloti River to the south, the MR102 or Old Main Road to the west, and the N2 freeway between Durban and Richards Bay to the east. Located within this precinct is Mount Moreland, a small residential community less than a kilometre south of the airport’s southern support precinct. Mount Moreland formerly fell under the control of the Development and Services Board (DSB) and had no formal town planning scheme. The Mount Moreland area is significantly affected by the new airport in that it lies immediately to the south of the main and for the present only runway and consequently is significantly affected by aircraft noise. In this situation the continuation of the current residential land use will be problematic, and it is accordingly proposed to allow for alternative land uses which will be more compatible with the aircraft noise levels. Furthermore the KZN Planning and Development Commission have required in terms of a Section 48 order that the area be more appropriately zoned, given its location, than its current residential land use. The environmental authorisation for KSIA finally issued by the Minister of Environmental Affairs and Tourism in 2008 confirmed the somewhat tenuous situation of the existing residential development in Mount Moreland, then flanking the proposed KSIA, and instructed that noise monitoring was to be undertaken once the airport was operational and that if necessary ACSA was to install acoustic amelioration.

  • The Cornubia Housing Project, Ethekwini Municipality, South Africa
    Exploration into Knowledge Production in Spatial Planning: The Cornubia Housing Project, eThekwini Municipality, South Africa Helen Louise Cooke Submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Development Studies, in the Graduate Programme in the School of Built Environment and Development Studies, University of KwaZulu-Natal, Durban, South Africa. November 2014 As the Candidate’s Supervisor I have/have not approved this short dissertation for submission Name: Dianne Scott Signature: Date: Name: Catherine Sutherland Signature: Date: Abstract Planning discourse has been at the heart of South Africa’s history, with planning ideologies influencing, and being influenced by, political actions and social debate. Under apartheid spatial planning was used as a tool to implement political ideals and reinforce the ideology of racial separation. In the post-apartheid era planning is still at the forefront of many urban processes. The three main challenges inherited from the apartheid spatial planning discourse are: separation; fragmentation; and sprawl. Planning has become more flexible in post-modern times and therefore can have greater emphasis on social, economic and environmental factors. These factors are critical, however, understanding how important each factor is to a particular development is a challenge. This research examines the case study of the Cornubia Housing Project in the Northern Municipal Planning Region of the eThekwini Municipality. The project is a public/private partnership between the eThekwini Municipality and Tongaat Hulett, who both own portions of the land. The research seeks to establish the discourses used to produce the Local Area Plan for Verulam-Cornubia and the Cornubia Framework Plan.

During 1992 the World Bank approached the Southern Africa Labour and Development Research Unit (SALDRU) at the University of Cape Town to coordinate, a study in South Africa called the Project on Statistics for Living $tandards and Development. This study was carried out during 1993, and consisteci of two phases. The first of these was a situation analysis, consisting of a number of regional poverty profiles and cross-cutting studies on a na~ional level. The second phase was a country wide household surVey conducted in the latter half of 1993. The Project has been built on the Second Carnegie Inquiry into Poverty, which assessed the situation up to the mid 1980's. Whilst preparation of these papers for the situation analysis, using common guidelines, involved much discussion and criticism amongst all those involved in the Project, the final paper remains the responsibility of its authors. .' -<, '" -) 1 In the series of working papers on reilional poverty and cross- '"" . cutting themes there are 12 papers: Regional Poverty Profiles: Ciskei Durban Eastern and Northern Transvaal NatallKwazulu OFS and Qwa-Qwa Port Elizabeth - Uitenhage PWV' Transkei Western Cape Cross-Cutting Studies: Energy Nutrition Urbanisation & Housing Water Supply TABLE OF CONTENTS SECTION No. PAGE No. 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 CONTEXTUALISING THE DURBAN
