Review the spatial planning and land use management by-law for

Lesedi local municipality, for a period of ten (10) months, gauteng

Province.

1.1 The Department of Land Reform and Rural Development (DLRRD) requires the

services of one (1) firm or a consortium of suitably qualified service providers to

Review the Spatial Planning and Land Use Management (SPLUM) By-Law for

Lesedi Local Municipality (LLM) in the Gauteng Province.

1.2. In terms of Sections 5(1)(c), 6 and 23(1)(b) including all other related provisions of

the Spatial Planning and Land Use Management Act, 2013 (Act ) the

municipality is mandated to establish a uniform, recognisable and comprehensive

system of spatial planning and land use management in its municipal area to

maintain economic unity, equal opportunity, equal access to government services,

to promote social and economic inclusion. Whereas municipalities are charged with

the responsibility to control and regulate the use of land within the municipal area

1.3 The present LLM SPLUM By-Law, 2015 has some shortcomings in so far as

alignment and inclusion of recently enacted legislative frameworks at national and

provincial level such as the Gauteng Township Economic Development Act of 2022

(TEDA) and the Municipal Fiscal Powers and Functions Act, 2024 (MFPFA) as well

as the Lesedi Land Use Scheme, 2025 (LUS). Thereby, affecting the alignment of

objectives and plans from a regional perspective and the implementation and

management of land use in the area.

1.4 The need therefore exists for the coordination of planning tools to achieve

compliance within the municipality and to review the existing SPLUM By-Law for

LLM to ensure harmony and coordination of these spatial planning and land use

management instruments.

2.1 LLM is a category B municipality and is one of three local municipalities that falls

within the Sedibeng District Municipality in the Gauteng Province.

For a period of ten (10) months, gauteng province.

2.2 Lesedi spans an area of ±1430km2, which is largely rural, with two towns situated

within it, namely Heidelberg/Ratanda in the western part, and Devon Impumelelo

and KwaZenzele Vischkuil on its eastern edge.

2.3 The area can be described as mostly agricultural, with Heidelberg and Devon being

the primary service centres for the surrounding agricultural areas. The municipal

area of LLM encompasses both urban and rural regions, with a mix of formal and

informal settlements. This diverse composition presents a unique set of challenges

and opportunities for the local administration. The municipality must balance the

needs of the urban and rural populations, while also addressing the varied settlement

patterns within its jurisdiction. Effective management of these complexities is

essential for the sustainable development of the region.

2.4 The area within the municipal boundary is governed by the Lesedi SPLUM By-Law,

2015 which was proclaimed in the Provincial Gazette on the 26th of January 2016.

The By-Law was the first to be adopted after the implementation of SPLUMA.

3 problem statement

3.1 The Lesedi SPLUM By-Law that has been in place for some ten years now and there

is a need to review it considering the review of the Lesedi Land Use Scheme of 2025

(LUS) that has yielded some misalignment and the need for amendments.

Additionally, the By-Law also needs to be aligned to other enacted provincial and

national legislation such as TEDA and the Standard Draft By-Laws for Township

Economies, 2024, The MFPFA as well as the Municipal Spatial Development

Framework,2022 (MSDF).

3.2 Further to the above, there are other identified gaps and wording that were not

thoroughly cognisant of unforeseen urban developments that unfolded prior to the

approval and subsequent proclamation of the aforesaid documents, such as the

following misalignment but not limited to:

a) There are definitions and processes that were omitted or are vague and as a

result cause irregularities in decision making.

Page

Terms of reference: for the appointment of a service provider to review the

Spatial planning and land use management by-law for lesedi local municipality,

For a period of ten (10) months, gauteng province.

b) There is a further need for new definitions.

c) There are other categorised applications that were previously excluded in the

By-Law.

d) There is a need to relax certain requirements to simplify and unlock the land

development process within the municipality.

e) There is a need for a clearly defined objection process that also provides

guidance on how LLM will deal with petitions against objections.

f) There is a need to strengthen and make provision for the regulation of land

uses within the township economy such as spaza shops, etc.

g) The application forms and schedules must be reviewed and aligned to the

adopted LLM processes.

h) There is a need to strengthen the provisions for land use regulation and/or

enforcement.

i) There is a need to make provision for transitional arrangements where

required.

These continue to hinder the integration and sustainability of social, economic and

environmental elements. Consequently, the institutional arrangements have been

uncoordinated and weak, which results in incoherent planning procedures and

systems within the municipality.

3.2 The current situation poses significant challenges for the municipality, and it is

imperative that appropriate measures be taken to address the issue. This requires

benchmarking with like institutions and by-laws to yield a comprehensive approach

that integrates the various elements of land use management and promotes

sustainable development practices. This will require the involvement of all

stakeholders and the development of a coherent institutional framework that fosters

collaboration and coordination.

3.3 Consequently, there is a need to review the LLM SPLUM By-Law to allow an

opportunity to make the necessary amendments, enhance service delivery efficiency

and ensure that the By-Law covers all the procedural aspects of land development

Page

applications within the jurisdiction, compliance and enforcement as well as further

allow the inclusion of previously disadvantaged communities.

3.4 The review of the LLM SPLUM By-Law will align with the legislative and normative

principles of the SPLUMA. (ongoing compliance)

Purpose and objectives of the project

4.1 The key objective of the project is to appoint a service provider to review and amend

the SPLUM By-Law for the LLM within a period of ten (10) months.

4.2 The By-Law review, as a spatial planning and land use management and

development regulatory tool aims to provide for the categorisation of land

development applications, to provide for processes and procedures for land

development applications, while also being compliant with the land use scheme. The

By-Law review must also make amendment to the provisions for an Appeal Authority

where applicable and provide for offences and penalties that are necessary and

relevant for land use management, land development and compliance, or incidental

thereto such as:

a) Provide for a package of plans which shall inform the social, economic,

environmental and infrastructural development in the Municipality.

b) Provide a uniform, effective, comprehensive, and interrelated framework

for spatial planning and land use management.

c) Provide for the inclusive, developmental, equitable and efficient planning

in the spirit of co-operative governance.

d) Provide a framework for co-operative and cross-border relationships with

all spheres of Government and to ensure the integration of planning

between the Municipality and neighbouring Municipalities.

e) Provide a framework for policies, principles, norms and standards for

spatial development planning and land use management.

f) Provide a framework for the monitoring, coordination and review of the

spatial planning and land use management system.

g) Ensure continued regulation of land development application and

decision-making procedures.

h) Ensure the continued establishment, functioning and operations of

the Tribunal.

i) Provide for the continued facilitation and enforcement of land use and

development measures.

j) Review the processes of the appeal authority, and

k) Ensure the penalties for breach of its provisions are still adequate.

4.3 The By-Law review should protect the resources and values of the municipal area

by protecting or promoting activities that employ best practice management,

maintain or enhance service delivery, and/or implement spatial and land use

planning in the jurisdiction. This is a means to sustain the benefits to the community

derived from the natural environment.

4.4 This section on By-Law amendments should identify how the proposed SPLUM By-

Law amendments achieve the planning intent for the municipality by proposing

processes and procedures that reflect the municipality’s unique circumstances and

address local challenges as well as satisfy the needs of the municipality and the

matters listed above.

4.5 The Bylaw is used to implement land development and land use applications, spatial

planning, and land use schemes within the LLM. The By-Law review should also

identify how other planning and management initiatives can contribute to achieving

the planning intent of the municipality and the management and Implementation of

strategies.

4.6 The required SPLUM By-Law review must continue to give effect to the development

principles contained in the Spatial Planning and Land Use Management Act

(SPLUMA) including: -

ii. Spatial Sustainability

iii. Efficiency

iv. Spatial Resilience, and

v. Good Administration

4.7 The SPLUM By-Law review must take cognisance of and adhere to newly enacted

national and provincial policies and legislation, including, the Municipality’s

Integrated Development Planning (IDP), MSDF and LUS.

5.1 The successful service provider would be expected to undertake the following

towards the review of the LLM SPLUM By-Law:

a) The reviewed SPLUM By-law should continue to establish a comprehensive

framework for land use planning and development. It should review the existing

provisions for development procedures and processes, timeframes, enforcement

mechanisms, engineering services and other related matters and ensure they

are still relevant and promote efficient service delivery.

b) Conduct a status quo analysis which will entail but not limited to the review of

case law and legal precedent that has been set on spatial planning and land use

management matters that may influence the proposals/amendments made to the

Lesedi SPLUM By-Law for the municipality taking into cognizance the local

circumstance, local policies, development as well as provincial and national

policies and strategies. The envisaged outcome of this exercise is the

development processes and procedures that will inform the SPLUM By-Law

review and highlight and identify visible conflicts and contradictions and how they

can be addressed, as well as necessary amendments, new inclusions, schedules

and application forms.
