erf 21126 Developement which can cause crime increase.

[Highbury Foundation Kuils River]

Dear Resident

The City of Cape Town Has received a rezoning application for the construction of shops and flats on the property next to the garage in Highbury Road.

Notice available here. 

Developers Motivational document available here

This development has the potential to increase the crime risk profile of the surrounding area as has been the case in the vicinity of the  precinct  on the corner of Nooiensfontein Road and Highbury Road. the parking lot will become a hangout for undesirables. No amount of security intervention will be able prevent opportunistic crim that  will take place by persons from outside the area in an area further than the reach of the security detail envisaged by the developer.

The development is typical of apartheid spacial planning methodology with business erected on small erven opposite residential property. This is not found in previously white areas. For business not to directly or indirectly impact residents the buildings need to set back from the building line with adequate screen and buffer area to mitigate the disturbance that business premises,  shops generate - noise , security concerns , pollution ect.

Also the location of the development does not meet the requirements of the Tygerberg District Plan Technical report   which state that business activity does not encroach the residential area.
