Land Identification for Social Housing • City has a Council Resolution/Policy that stipulate that any City land/buildings should be offered to the Housing Department first before it can be disposed. • City planners identify suitable land for Social Housing. • Councilors identify suitable land for SH in their areas. • Provincial Government offers land to the City for SH. • City request some land from Province for SH. • City’s SH Unit request/motivates for the reservation of the land identified above, for SH development. • Private companies also offers their land for SH. • City’s SH Unit keeps register of all land requests and makes follow-up.
PACKAGING OF SOCIAL HOUSING LAND • Once reservation of the land for SH development is confirmed: • SH Unit request Valuation of the land, confirm Zoning, Tittle Deed Conditions etc. • SH Unit Maps the land and log it in the SH land register. • SH Unit determine weather the City or the SHI should package the land i.e. apply for Rezoning, EIA, Planning approvals, etc. • Generally it is best to do these together with the SHI taking the lead with the support of the City.
Transfer and Release of Social Housing Land • Initially, land was allocated to SHI’s per jurisdiction. (Each SHI had its area of dominance) • Currently, the SH Unit allocates land through a closed tender among interested SHI’s (ad hock land). • For the future, planning a workshop with all SHI’s and share all land reserved to date. • Land is release either on a 30 years lease or sale of 10% of the marked value of the land. • SHI and SH Unit agrees weather it’s a lease or sale. • SH Unit advertise the Lease or Sale of land as required by MFMA and its Regulations. • SHI and City present the land at the PSC Pipe Line List.
Social Housing Partnership Agreement (SH PA) • SH PA allows the City to allocate land directly to the SHI without going to tender. • SH PA allows the City to lease or sell land to the SHI at nominal value. • Some SHI prefers to lease land while others prefers to buy land hence it is important to have both options available. • It is important to put strict condition on the sale or lease agreement to protect City land from being used for other purposes other than SH.
Conclusion Let us work together in for a Thriving Social Housing Sector.
