New Frankenwald development plan

New Frankenwald development plan

A new draft Frankenwald Urban Development Framework, has been published for comment. This is the second stage in a three part process to obtain public comment regarding the development of Frankenwald.

The Buccleuch Residents Association and Kelvin Residents Association will be reviewing this latest draft through our joint Frankenwald Development Committee.

We encourage you to send your comments both to chair@mybuccleuch.co.za as well as to the developers.

 


Frankenwald Development (Pty) Ltd and the University of the Witwatersrand are undertaking a spatial planning process according to City of Johannesburg guidelines to prepare an Urban Development Framework (UDF) for the area known as 'Frankenwald'.

The UDF will set out the framework and guidelines for the development of Frankenwald and will be adopted as a City of Johannesburg planning policy once approved by Council.

A three-stage process is followed to engage the public with regard to the Frankenwald UDF. This first stage involved preparing and submitting the draft Frankenwald UDF Status Quo report for public comment. This was done during July and August 2020. We are now embarking on the second stage, whereby the Draft Frankenwald UDF, comprising both the Status Quo report and Framework UDF report is submitted for public comment.

The third stage will follow and involve advertising the Final Draft Frankenwald UDF in the Provincial Gazette and making this report available for public comment for a period of 60 days.

Any comments, representation or inputs in respect of the Draft Frankenwald UDF may be submitted in writing via frankenwald@urbandynamics.co.za at the contact details provided on the attached Electronic Flyer by 8 February 2021. Any enquiries may also be directed to Urban Dynamics Gauteng Inc.
