ANNEXURE1: SPATIAL DEVELOPMENT FRAMEWORK PROPOSALS
1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 GENERAL Area-based planning is an initiative that complements the IDP process by focusing and zooming in on communities. Communities in this sense are represented by settlements and wards. Because wards are often demarcated in a way that divides areas that in reality function as a unit, Swartland decided to adopt an approach that in the first place focuses on sensible geographical areas, simultaneously considering ward planning so that wards are not neglected. To achieve this, a number of wards are combined for each area plan. The following five planning areas were identified: North: Moorreesburg, Koringberg and Ruststasie (Wards 1 and 2) East: Riebeek West, Riebeek Kasteel and Ongegund (Wards 3 and 12) West: Darling and Yzerfontein (Wards 5 and 6) South: Abbotsdale, Chatsworth, Riverlands and Kalbaskraal (Wards 4 and 7) Central: Malmesbury (Wards 8, 9, 10 and 11 and small portions of wards 4, 7 and 12). As such, it is an approach that represents an effort to address integrated development planning at a sub-municipal level. There are therefore five planning areas; each with its own Area Plan document. Four of the five plans represent two wards each, while Malmesbury town represents four wards. The importance of the role of the wards and ward committees is addressed in the second section of each Area Plan. It also contains the community inputs and the results of the public meetings pertaining to those wards. 1.2 STRUCTURE OF DOCUMENT When presenting planning and community participation at local level, information is presented per town and per ward (as mentioned in the previous paragraph). This can be challenging as it interrupts the natural flow from analysis and community participation towards projects. To maintain clarity, however, everything that can be linked to a town was grouped in the town section, and everything linked to a ward approach, is presented in the ward section. 1.3 COMPILATION OF THE AREA PLANS The Municipality together with the ward committees commenced with the compilation of area plans covering all 12 wards. Meetings were held with all 12 ward committees to determine their issues and top ten priorities. The meetings were held on the following dates: 22 February 2018 – Ward 12 26 February 2018 – Wards 1, 2, 8 and 10 27 February 2018 – Wards 5, 6, 9 and 11 28 February 2018 – Ward 3 01 March 2018 – Wards 4 and 7
The role of the wards and ward committees is built into the process, as the second section of each area plan represents the ward committee members and the planning they have been involved with. During the meetings the persons present were given the opportunity to identify the main priorities of the relevant wards, in respect of the five IDP strategic goals. The priorities that were identified during the meetings were returned to the various ward committees by the end of March 2018 to verify the ten main priorities, as stated in the area plan. The area plan was finalized end of May 2018 and submitted to the council for approval. 1.4 THE IDP AND AREA PLANS The five area plans include the following: an understanding of social diversity in the community, the assets, vulnerabilities and preferences of these different social groups; an analysis of the services available to these groups, as well as the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats facing the community; a consensus on priorities for the relevant wards; and Identification of projects for the IDP. Area plans help to ensure that the IDP is more targeted and relevant to addressing the priorities of all groups, including the most vulnerable. Area plans provide ward committees with a systematic planning and implementation tool to perform their roles and responsibilities. They form the basis for dialogue between the Municipality and ward committees regarding the identification of priorities and budget requests and will also be used by ward committees for ongoing monitoring and evaluation throughout the year. Area plans are part and parcel of the IDP and contain information used in defining the Municipality’s long term strategy. The information is however on a detail level and not duplicated in the IDP.

3.1 MOORREESBURG
(a) HISTORICAL BACKGROUND
Moorreesburg originated as a result of the establishment of the DR Church in the last half of the 19th century. The earliest history of the church up to
1882 was interwoven with the history and initial development of the town. The town is named after one of the former minsters of the Swartland
congregation, namely Rev. J. C. Le Fèbre Moorrees.
In 1882 Lord Milner granted town status and Moorreesburg’s first town council was elected. Besides the central town area, development also takes
place in four other areas namely;
Parts of the town Neulfontein B (currently known as the farm Tevrede) was developed and is known as Steynsburg. It is the area between Park
Street and Uitsig Street;
In 1920 the area between Smuts Street and Uitsig Street was developed. This area is known as Smutsville;
On the northern side of Lang Street and the western side of Reservoir Street another area is developed on a section of the farm Klipvlei;
The town area of Hooikraal was laid out in 1915 and divided into 1234 erven which were sold at a cheaper price than the town erven. In 1915
the land north of the river at Hooikraal was incorporated.
(b) DEVELOPMENT PERSPECTIVE
Moorreesburg registered as a “medium” development category on both the qualitative and quantitative analysis (ranked 32nd), while its needs levels
are relatively low (ranked 24th). When compared to the provincial average. Moorreesburg performs well in the development components related to
institutional services, economic change and regional development. The main function of the town is that of an agricultural service centre (central
place town), in the heart of the wheat producing Swartland district.
Light industries are beginning to play an increasingly important role in the town. The role of the Swartland Group (producing wooden window frames
and doors), Skaarland (ploughs), Swartland Cement and other agri-related industries (dog food and canola oil), should not be underestimated in its
impact on the local economy of the region. More light industries related to the agricultural function should be attracted. Moorreesburg is the seat of
the West Coast District Municipality (WCDM).
After a period of development the town’s economy reflects a declining growth since 2000. This can be attributed to, among other things, that the
head office of the Swartland Municipality was established in Malmesbury after amalgamation, the leakage of buying power to Cape Town,
Malmesbury and Piketberg and the stagnation of agricultural production due to drought and the strong rand currency (which makes imports of corn
cheaper than producing it locally).
Water availability may be a limiting factor for development as an agriculture centre. The possibility to diversify agricultural activities in the region must
be investigated. The present dominance of agriculture around which the town economy revolves makes the economic base vulnerable. This could be
countered by a specific focus on agriculture/wheat related tourism.(c) SERVICE BACKLOGS
Streets and traffic
Moorreesburg is served by the N7 on the eastern side of town, which forms the mains transport route between Cape Town and Namibia. Numerous
problems are encountered with safe access to the N7 from both entrances to town, particularly the southern entrance. During winter months
problems with bad vision is experience due to fog. The town links with the West Coast via the R45 and with Paarl/Wellington via the R311. With this
excellent road infrastructure Moorreesburg forms a junction between the north and south as well as east and west.
Sewerage
The Waste Water Treatment Works must be upgraded. There is not sufficient treatment capacity and the infrastructure is obsolete resulting in high
maintenance costs and poor performance.
Storm water
Maintenance of the No-Go River.
Regular blockages and flooding in Rosenhof.
Upgrading of systems in the vicinity of Royal Street.
Water
Obsolete infrastructure, pipe breakages, leaking valves and leaking hydrants.
Poorly developed network, shortage in shut-off valves.
Secondary Chlorination at reservoirs must be implemented.
Streets
Backlog of resealing program, deterioration of road infrastructure
Electricity
Replacement of obsolete substations and networks.
3.2 KORINGBERG
(a) HISTORICAL BACKGROUND
Koringberg is a typical example of a town that developed from a church and a railway siding. The town was originally established in 1923 with the
church being built on the farm Brakfontein. It was initially known as Warren’s Camp after the railway station. The name Koringberg however, refers to
the prominent hill behind the village which overlooks the wheat fields. The town obtained municipal status in 1975 but lost it afterwards. Today
Koringberg is the northern-most settlement of the Swartland Municipal Area.
(b) DEVELOPMENT PERSPECTIVE
Koringberg developed as an agricultural service centre, but currently functions as a residential settlement which to a large extend accommodates
farm workers of the surrounding rural areas. To an extent the cultivation of wheat was replaced with the production of grapes for the export market.
The farm Broodkraal provides work to 2000 labourers of which the majority live in Koringberg. Some of the farm residents are of the opinion thatKoringberg has positive growth potentials as a retirement village and a rural breakaway resort. Various artists and retirees have already settled down here. Koringberg with a low development potential (ranked 70th), should at this stage qualify primarily for major social capital investment rather than for fixed infrastructural investment. In this way the capacity of the town’s community and their social well-being could be uplifted more effectively. The town is located a few kilometres off the N7 route and its proximity to Moorreesburg contributes to its functional role as a low-order rural settlement. In realty Koringberg’s development profile promises very little growth potential. The only positive development components the settlement reveals are economic change and regional vitality, which are misleading indicators on account of the statistical fallacy produced by relative large percentages on small census numbers. (c) SERVICE BACKLOGS Sewerage Sewer reticulation network poorly developed and must be extended Waste Water Treatment Works is overloaded and must be upgraded Storm water No formal piped storm water drainage system. There are many unlined channels which causes erosion and maintenance problems. Water Poorly developed network, small diameter pipes, low pressure and flow condition and open ring mains. Sections of the water reticulation network is obsolete and must be upgraded. Secondary chlorination at reservoirs must be implemented. Streets Backlog resealing program coupled with deterioration of road infrastructure. Many roads are not constructed with kerbstone and formal sidewalks. Electricity Eskom area of supply. Street lighting inadequate.
