Revised DRAFT Basic Assessment Report - The Proposed Residential Development and Associated Infrastructure on a Portion of Erf 1180, Keurboomstrand, Plettenberg Bay - DEA&DP Ref: 16/3/3/1/D1/6/0024/26
Erf 1180 (to be registered as a portion of Erf 1236), originally Erf 155, is located within Keurboomstrand, primarily characterized as a resort town within Plettenberg Bay, Western Cape. See below locality map and coordinates for the property boundary.
The proposal is to develop 2x group dwelling units on the eastern portion (referred to as “Erf 1180”) of Erf 1236. Approximately 2000m² of the 5 000m² subject site is earmarked for development. The property remains vacant and untransformed.
The preferred development proposal entails the construction of two (2) double-storey residential units with double garage and a shared swimming pool.
Town Planning: the proposal is to subdivide a portion (±5000m²) off from Erf 1180, and to rezone this portion from “Open Space Zone 2” to “Open Space Zone 3” for “Nature conservation area” to allow for the two dwelling units and a swimming pool. Please consult the Specialist Planning Report for NEMA Purposes report in Appendix G.
Access: the property is entitled to a 7m wide right of way servitude across Erf 391. The proposed driveway width into the development is 4m, curved around mature trees of conservation value. The road will be paved with permeable paving to allow for the drainage of stormwater.
