Meeting on Klapmuts
2006-10-05
A PUBLIC open house meeting to discuss the proposed expansion of Klapmuts will be held at Klapmuts Primary on Tuesday from 16:00 to 19:00.
It is part of the public participation process for the proposed township development adjacent to the existing town of Klapmuts in the direction of Stellenbosch by developer Francois Klomp.
The 38 hectare farm Groenfontein is to be subdivided into 1193 erven, with about 14 business erven along the R44 between Merchant Street and Potbelly Pantry.
The development will include 294 smaller erven with affordable subsidised housing intended for farmworkers, including those on Klomp’s farm Freedom Hill in Wemmershoek.
Other investors in this section include farmers of the Simonsberg area who wish to grant their workers property rights.
Further south will be an extended private development including 225 group houses, 404 high density housing units, a retirement village (254 units) and 25 single residential erven.
Also planned are a shopping complex, a business/office complex, a filling station, a school and a private hospital.
Doug Jeffery Environmental Consultants have been appointed to undertake an environmental investigation of the above proposal.
A Background Information Document will be made available at the meeting when information will be presented in poster format (there will be no formal presentation).
