What do town planners do?

Town planners in Mtubatuba manage the design and development of urban areas. They assess construction and development plans and ensure that they adhere to regulations. Ideally, the development of an urban area should be functional, well-designed and environmentally conscious. Town planners in Mtubatuba aim to achieve these goals.

How do I submit a town planning application?

If you hire a town planner in Mtubatuba, they can submit the application for you after they have assessed your plans and ideas. Everyone is required to submit a town planning application before getting started with construction. It is a legal requirement throughout South Africa to submit a town planning application. If you don’t submit an application, you might face legal consequences.

Can I change a development plan without re-submitting a town planning application?

It depends on the extent of the changes. However, you will probably have to re-submit an amended application. The council in Mtubatuba will want to know exactly what the changes are.

How long does it take for my application to be assessed?

The time your local council takes to determine the outcome of your planning application will vary depending on the size of the project and the level of public interest. In some cases, you can obtain approval in less than a month. However, if you fear that your application is being overlooked, it’s possible to contact the relevant authorities and ask for an application update. They must reject or approve your application in due time.

Do town planners have to be certified?

Yes. All town planners must be certified by the South African Council for Planners (SACPLAN) or The South African Council for the Architectural Profession (SACAP). There is also a list of registered town planners on SACPLAN’s website. It’s advisable to verify the status of your town planners before working with them. Only a verified town planner in Mtubatuba can provide you with a viable assessment that will be recognised by your local council.

What is the difference between planning approval and a building licence?

Once you’ve received planning approval it means that you are authorised to use the land. However, you cannot start the construction or development process until you have a building licence. Town planners in Mtubatuba will only provide you with a building licence once they have assessed and approved your building plan.

How do I change/ remove title deeds?

You can change or remove title deeds at any of the deeds offices in South Africa. However, you need to make sure that you have the correct documentation. The Deeds Office oversees the registration, management and maintenance of the property registry of South Africa. It also keeps copies of antenuptial contracts. You cannot start building or developing a property without having ownership of the property and the relevant title deeds. Legitimate town planners in Mtubatuba will not approve illegal development projects.
