This second draft demonstrates the city’s response to the Guidance Note 2014/2015 as well as comments received from National Treasury. However, there are still some sections that will remain as gap areas for this financial year and will be improved upon from 2015/2016 onwards. The BEPP provides a strategic overview of the built environment that will be used to enhance inter-governmental relations aimed at improving the performance of metropolitan built environments. The Department of National Treasury has introduced the City Support Programme (CSP), which is an outcomes-based, planning-led programme that will measure intermediate results and outcomes based on more productive, liveable, inclusive and sustainable cities resulting from integrated planning, funding and implementation. The CSP has been put in place to assist Municipalities with the ever growing built environment challenges. Municipalities participating in the programme have to confirm their participation via a Council resolution and are also allocated the Integrated City Development Grant (ICDG) and are required to update their BEPPs on an annual basis with the first adoption of BEPPs 2014/2015 in line with the Guidance Note 2014/2015. The City of Tshwane has been allocated an amount of R8m for the 2014/2015 financial year in 2 equal tranches and was made available after the Adjusted Budget period in January 2014. The BEPP document as contained here should be read together with the draft IDP 2014/15 Review, Draft 2014/15 SDBIP and the Draft 2014/17 MTREF. The outcomes, indicators and targets as articulated in the IDP and SDBIP are supported by details of this document. BACKGROUND On 27 August 2013, the Council approved the Tshwane Vision 2055, a long term strategic plan through which the City seeks to improve the social, economic and management of the natural environment. The Tshwane Vision 2055 sets out the City’s vision and long-term strategic agenda and the IDP outlines the priorities and key programmes for the Mayoral Term. Through these strategic documents, we seek to address the challenges of urbanisation and migration, economic development and job creation, service delivery, poverty, urban renewal and regeneration, globalisation, the need for information technology and the bridging of the digital divide and other related challenges. The identified outcomes of the Tshwane Vision 2055 are as follows: The Vision has set six outcomes which need to be achieved over the next four decades. These are: Outcome 1: A resilient and resource efficient City Outcome 2: A growing economy that is inclusive, diversified and competitive Outcome 3: A City with quality infrastructure development that supports liveable communities 2 1589 Outcome 4: An equitable City that supports happiness, social cohesion, safety and healthy citizens Outcome 5: An African Capital City that promotes excellence and innovative governance solutions Outcome 6: South Africa’s Capital with an activist citizenry that is engaging, aware of their rights and presents themselves as partners in tackling societal challenges The long term vision of the City is as follows: In 2055, Tshwane is liveable, resilient and inclusive whose citizens enjoy a high quality of life, have access to social, economic and enhanced political freedoms and where citizens are partners in the development of the African Capital City of excellence. The above Vision and Outcomes are a basis on which future planning, infrastructure investment and resource allocation and collaboration will be premised upon as part of the complete Remaking of the Capital1.
