Central Karoo District Municipality IDP Review 2004/05
FOREWORD: EXECUTIVE MAYOR
The Central Karoo District Municipality faced tremendous challenges. Although most of us cherish
the vast open spaces we live in, so many of the inhabitants of the region we serve struggle daily to
survive the onslaught of poverty and social exclusion. As Mayor I am aware of the numerous
responsibilities bestowed on the council to bring about fundamental changes to our region that will
have a positive effect on the livelihoods of all our people.
The IDP process provides us with the opportunity to join hands for bringing about a brighter future
for all of us. Only through our collaborated efforts will we succeed in this goal. I therefore wish to
invite all citizens and institutional role-players to participate in this dynamic process of Integrated
Development Planning for this District Municipality.
Through our active involvement with other spheres of government we have succeeded thus far to
establish significant financial and institutional support for development in this region. As one of the
thirteen rural development nodes in the country we have received substantial support to address
service delivery backlogs for all communities in the district.
Let us join hands for a better future, dignifying our responsibilities to current and future generations.
THE MAYOR: COUNCILLOR Doreen Hugo

Central Karoo District Municipality IDP Review 2004/05
FOREWORD: MUNICIPAL MANAGER
Municipalities throughout the country are obliged by legislation to draw up an IDP and by
revising it annually. Not only is this helping to focus development efforts but it is also a
manner of managing municipalities. The IDP is an institutionalised process as a management
mechanism according to which municipal activities are being managed, with a
primary focus on implementation.
The IDP is demanding a great deal from municipal officials. The officials of the CKDM, I have
learnt, have not backed down from the challenge and are actively involved in the IDP.
The annual budget are aligned with the IDP – thereby reflecting the needs of the
community in the municipality’s resource allocation. We endeavour to manage this to the best
of our abilities, reflecting our commitment to serve the interest of all citizens in the region.
The drafting of this review document do not indicate an end result but rather the progress
made and an update on the previous document.
Many of the interventions identified in our IDP, especially for the short and medium terms,
focus on the establishment of sound planning practices and building capacity both in the
community and internally at the CKDM. We believe that this will enhance and encourage
sustainable development in the region. The document also indicates capital projects to
address current backlogs in infrastructure and service delivery.
I wish to extend my sincere gratitude to all individuals who have contributed to the
establishment of a sound basis for Integrated Development Planning at this Municipality.
Nothing in life is perfect, but I am proud of what we have achieved thus far.
Mr T. Prince
Municipal Manager

Central Karoo District Municipality IDP Review 2004/05
Introduction
The Central Karoo District covers the municipal areas of Beaufort West, Laingsburg and Prince Albert, as
well as the District Management Area (DMA), which includes the town of Murraysburg. The District has
been declared as a Presidential Node by President Thabo Mbeki during 2001 due to the high levels of
poverty and has therefore been incorporated in the Integrated Sustainable Rural Development Programme
(ISRDP).
The various local authorities have embarked on a process of Integrated Development Planning, as required
by the Local Government: Municipal Systems Act (nr 32 of 2000), to address service delivery shortfalls, as
well supporting economic and social development within the respective municipal areas.
This document constitutes the review of the planning processes for the financial year 2005/06 as
undertaken by the various municipalities and will focus on the respective municipalities within a district
context.

Central Karoo District Municipality IDP Review 2004/05
Integrated Development Planning
Integrated Development Planning is the core municipal planning tool. It is used to align the budget of the
municipality in order to respond to community and development needs, as well as optimising the service
delivery of the municipality. The Local Government: Municipal Systems Act (32 of 2000) constitutes the
legal mandate for the compilation of Integrated Development Plans in Chapter 5.
This section will focus on the following:
• Background – a brief description of the IDP-processes
• Process – the process of review during 2004/5 for implementation 2005/06
• Progress with sectoral plans
Background
The Central Karoo District Municipality’s Integrated Development Plan (here-after referred to as IDP) was
compiled by PricewaterhouseCoopers and finalised during 2002. The initial plan set the strategic framework
for subsequent planning and review processes. During the initial planning process, eight strategic Key
Performance Areas were identified. These Performance Areas encompasses the functioning of the
municipality and organises its function in terms thereof.
In terms of the Local Government: Municipal Systems Act (Act 32 of 2000), municipalities are obliged to
review their IDP’s on an annual basis in order to measure implementation of the plan, as well as the
relevance thereof in light of changing circumstances.
During the two review cycles following the initial compilation of the plan, institutional and participatory
processes were aligned to the planning process, leading to improved cooperation between Local and
District Municipalities. One of the main successes was the adoption of a standard set of Key Performance
Areas for the whole district. This enables the district to structure its planning in a coherent fashion. The
eight Key Performance Areas are indicated on the diagramme.

Central Karoo District Municipality IDP Review 2004/05
Economic Development
Economic Development remains a developmental challenge in the Central Karoo District. Due to the low
population density, the distance from large markets and the arid climate, economic development
opportunities are significantly less than in other districts in the Western Cape. While the Central Karoo
District has high levels of infrastructure provision – it is the unemployment and poverty, which are of
concern.
Despite the challenges hampering economic growth, the various municipalities have embarked on a variety
of projects and supporting initiatives to boost their local economic development (LED).
Economic Regeneration
After embarking on an extensive analysis (Central Karoo Economic Regeneration Study: Economic Profile Strategic Issues and Informants, 2003) of economic potentials, the following priority issues have been
identified to inform the LED Strategy of the Central Karoo:
•
Strategies should focus on the unemployed urban woman of the region and on plans to retain more
economically active males in the area.
•
Strategies should focus on the two economic sectors with real growth potential, namely: agri-processing
and tourism.
•
Without neglecting other brackets on the economic spectrum, strategies should focus on Public Private
Partnerships.
•
Strategies should focus on geographic areas with the most potential for economic growth
Based on the above, the Strategic Framework for Economic Regeneration (2003) defined the interrelated
pillars, and strategic objectives on which the economic vision of the Central Karoo Rest, namely:
KEY PILLARS

development
•
•
•

•
•
All available sources of funding for community based economic activity are accessed
and that a wide spectrum of the Central Karoo’s residents benefit from these initiatives.
Opportunities created through community based economic activity should be exploited
to assist local communities to enter the local and national economy and contribute
meaningfully to the well being of the region.
Recruit compatible new businesses – specifically in the two identified growth sectors,
i.e. tourism and agri-processing. Enhancing the local assets of the region is a key
consideration of this objective.
Enhance local assets – by taking steps to enhance local assets the communities of the
Central Karoo can build a sound economic base from which additional development can
occur.
Attract investment finance – and link with good initiatives identified through processes to
date.
Manage investment – specifically to areas with most potential for economic growth
within the region, whilst ensuring economic benefit for the poorer areas.
Developmental local government – in the 13 nodal areas the local authorities have the
added responsibility to ensure that economic regeneration is implemented.
Significantly improving the level of skills and learning amongst the communities of the
region.
Implementing targeted community based regeneration programmes.
Ensuring that economic development and opportunities derive social benefits for the
communities of the Central Karoo.
Infrastructure programmes of the various municipalities are aligned with the stated aims
of the SFER.
Basic services are provided at affordable prices to the local communities.
Sustainable job creation through long-term public works and maintenance programmes.

KEY PILLARS
STRATEGY OBJECTIVES
•
•
Plugging the
leaks in the
local economy
•
•
Supporting
and expansion
of existing
local
businesses
•
•
Import substitution – many imports, notably such necessities as energy, food, health
care and housing can often be supplied locally at no extra cost, and sometimes at a
saving.
Resource efficiency – even when a certain commodity cannot be produced locally, it can
often be used more efficiently to achieve the same net result. This is probably the most
reliable economic strategy of all.
Buy-local programmes – to promote the spirit of leak-plugging communities should be
encouraged to buy locally through awareness campaigns and other innovative
programmes.
Stronger informal economy – it doesn’t always take an official programme to plug a leak.
The ability of the informal economy of the region to replace imports should be enhanced
and developed.
Retain existing businesses and encourage it to become more efficient and successful.
Many development experts are convinced that this strategy is the fastest way to
increase jobs and strengthen an area’s economy.
Encourage new local enterprise – by creating an exciting business climate will
automatically lead to opportunities for creating new businesses.
Business Opportunities Conference
The CKDM hosted a two-day Business Opportunities Conference on the 8th and 9th September 2004, in
Beaufort West with the theme “Building Partnerships in the Presidential Central Karoo Node” 1. The
conference saw the presentation of various investment opportunities across the region. It provided a
platform to demonstrate the commitment of National, Provincial and Local Government to the Central Karoo
Region. Key Development Agencies, such as the Development Bank of South Africa (DBSA) and the
Department of Trade and Industry, also offered support for economic initiatives in the region.
Resultant from the Conference, PricewaterhouseCoopers compiled a summary report indicating the main
focus points for the four preferred areas for unlocking LED opportunities. A summary is provided below:

Within the context of the above the District, as well as the B-municipalities have initiated a variety of
projects aimed specifically at supporting Local Economic Development. This section will focus only on the
Central Karoo District Municipality’s projects, as the different municipalities’ projects are indicated in the
respective municipal overviews.
Beaufort West Sport Facility
The Beaufort West Sport Facility is a regional sports facility compliant with international standards. The
current facility in Rustdene makes provision for a grass athletics/rugby field which is to be upgraded to a
synthetic athletic track and a rugby field that would accommodate provincial rugby events as well as a
training facility for international rugby events; two soccer fields to be upgraded to the provincial and
international soccer standards of which one would be used as a dual purpose soccer and rugby facility
where the main stadium is in construction; two tennis courts upgraded; two netball courts; change room;
office and a hall. All other facilities would be upgraded to provincial standards.
The completed grand stand would be 100m long and would provide seating for approximately 1300
spectators. The sport facility would further accommodate an indoor facility that would include a fully
equipped gym, a hall to practice karate and a hall to practice professional ballroom dancing as well as
ablution and office space.
This facility will raise the level of sports excellence in the Central Karoo Region as well as amongst its
neighbouring regions. It would provide opportunity to the Region to host provincial sporting events and a
training field for international soccer and rugby events. This would have indirect spin-offs for the entire
region by creating additional employment opportunities for example in the tourism sector or opportunities
for SMME development. This project would become a meeting point for youth to organize themselves as
there is nothing that occupies the youth. The stadium will serve as recreational facility for the community
and the region as a whole.

Programmes
Due to the Nodal status of the district, a variety of programmes are being implemented. This section will
focus on the various programmes being implemented in the district and includes:
• Integrated Sustainable Rural Development Programme (ISRDP)
• Project Consolidate
• Municipal Infrastructure Grant (MIG)
• Municipal Systems Improvement Grant (MSIG)
Integrated Sustainable Rural Development Programme (ISRDP)
President Mbeki announced the Integrated Sustainable Rural Development Strategy (ISRDS) in February
2001, during the State of the Nation Address. Since then the ISRDS has been transformed into an
implementable programme, the ISRDP. Significant investment in rural areas between 1994 and 2000
proved to not have the envisaged impact in alleviating the endemic poverty and strengthening local
institution. It appeared that the range and quality of development and anti-poverty programmes in existence
are appropriate, but the impact of these programmes was weakened by poor coordination and integration to
provide an integrated basket of services that matched local priorities. In response to this, the aim of this
programme was therefore articulated as being:
“to conduct a sustained campaign against rural and urban poverty and underdevelopment,
bringing in the resources of all three spheres of government in a coordinated manner”
DPLG is he national coordinating institution for the ISRDP and has overall responsibility.
Cabinet appointed the Independent Development Trust (IDT) to provide support services to
the programme.”
The Vision of the ISRDP:
To attain socially cohesive and stable communities with viable institutions, sustainable economies and
universal access to social amenities, able to attract skilled and knowledgeable people, equipped to
contribute to their own and the nation’s growth and development.
The core principles of the ISRDP:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
To promote participatory development in an integrated manner by ensuring that, where appropriate,
decision-making involves local communities and all three spheres pf government;
To promote co-operative governance across all three spheres of government;
To promote the values of the Constitution and the principles of Batho Pele;
To integrate various governmental rural development initiatives;
To develop the capacity of local government to effectively implement the ISRDP;
To adhere to the principles of good governance and the PFMA;
To target the rural poor, women, youth and the disabled in particular

Municipal Infrastructure Grant (MIG)
The Municipal Infrastructure Grant (MIG) is a conditional grant to support municipal capital budgets to fund
municipal infrastructure and to upgrade existing infrastructure, primarily benefiting poor households. The
MIG gives effect to earlier Cabinet decisions and policy positions on the establishment of a single
consolidated funding mechanism to support municipal infrastructure. The MIG has been set up to merge
the following funding programmes in a phased manner commencing in 2004/05:
•
•
•
•
•
•
Consolidated Municipal Infrastructure Programme, in support of internal bulk, connector infrastructure and
community facilities to poor households;
Water Service Capital Fund, in support of bulk, connector and internal infrastructure for water services at a
basic level;
Community Based Public Works Programme, in support of the creation of community assets in rural,
historically disadvantage communities;
Local Economic Development Fund, in support of planning, and implementation of job creation and poverty
alleviation;
Building for Sport and Recreation Programme, in support of promoting sport and recreation facilities within
disadvantage communities; and
Electrification funding in support of addressing the electrification backlog of permanently occupied residential
dwellings that are situated in historically under-supplied areas.
The MIG is a new infrastructure transfer mechanism and is geared to making the system of transfers to
municipalities simpler, more certain and direct. Its conditions are more flexible, designed to support the
capital budgets of municipalities, and to facilitate integrated development planning. The MIG will not fund
16
Central Karoo District Municipality IDP Review 2004/05
specific projects, but is designed to complement the capital budgets of municipalities (similar to the
provincial infrastructure grant). Reporting on spending will therefore be on the entire capital budget of
municipalities, which also has to ensure that there are sufficient operational budgets in the future to fund
such capital expenditure. Individual national line departments will continue to lead the monitoring and
support of implementation in their specific functions and priorities.
The following tables indicate the progress with the current MIG (2004/05) projects, as well as the planned
MIG projects for 2005/06 for the Central Karoo (including the DMA). The MIG projects (progress 2004/05
and planned 2005/06) of the respective municipalities will also be addressed in the municipal overviews.

BEAUFORT WEST MUNICIPALITY
Introduction
Beaufort West Municipality includes the towns of Beaufort West, Merweville and Nelspoort. The largest
town in the district, Beaufort West, serves as the administrative centre of the district. The municipal area
has a total population of approximately 37000 residents, most of who are urbanised.
Beaufort West is strategically situated approximately 450 kilometres northwest from Cape Town along the
N1 route, which connects Cape Town with cities like Bloemfontein and Johannesburg. The town is also
situated on the stretch of the N1 where the N12 converges with the route, adding to the town transport
potentials.

This section will focus on the following aspects of Integrated Development Planning within the Beaufort
West municipal context:
• Economic Development
• Programmes (ISRDP, Project Consolidate)
• MIG 2004/05, 2005/06
• IDP -Project Registers 2004/05, 2005/06
Economic Development
The 2004 IDP review indicated the following economic potentials for the town:
1. Agri-business
a) Food gardens
b) Food security
c) Promote indigenous sleep and pig (empowerment)
d) Game farming
2. Ownership
a) Community and environment
3. Small enterprise support centre
4. Transport
a) Detour through town for heavy vehicles
b) Servicing of roads and curbing in low density residential areas
5. Promotion of land
32
Central Karoo District Municipality IDP Review 2004/05
a) Essential oils
6. Abattoir products expansion diversification
7. Integration model, commercial crops production e.g. oils
Based on these economic potentials, the following key projects are being planned, or have been initiated in
the municipal area.
Essential Oils
Beaufort West Hydroponics is a Section 21 Company trading in herbs in Beaufort West. Some of the herbs
are grown hydroponically (without soil) for the fresh produce markets while other are grown in soil for the
essential oils market. In 2003 the Department of Science and Technology, approved funding for the
establishment of an Essential Oils Pilot Project in Beaufort West.
This project is phased over two financial years. Funding for the current financial year was used for the activities
outlined below:
•
Community alignment, site preparation, infrastructure establishment and a trial planting of 5 cultivars covering
0,5 ha.
•
Harvesting of plant material ready for oils extraction for evaluation purposes.
•
The analyses of these oils will be used to determine which cultivars are technically and commercially viable in
Beaufort West.
•
This phase has provided 10 temporary employment opportunities as well as 10 full time job opportunities.
Site Location: Beaufort West
Launching Date: 1 January 2004
Project Cost: R 800 000
Hydroponics
Beaufort West Hydroponics is a Section 21 Company trading in fresh herbs in Beaufort West. Some of the herbs are
grown hydroponically (without soil) for the fresh produce market and some are grown in soil for the essential oils
market. In 2003 the Department of Science and Technology, in conjunction with the Provincial Government of the
Western Cape, approved funding for the expansion of the (pilot) hydroponics facility into a fully-fledged business.
An 18-month pilot project has already been completed. This has proven both the technical and commercial viability of
growing herbs hydroponically in Beaufort West. The expansion project is aimed at transferring a full-scale technologyrich solution into an economically depressed area in order to address a market opportunity, thereby creating at least 80
additional sustainable jobs.
Site Location: Beaufort West
Launching Date: June 2003
Project Cost: R 5 000 000

Central Karoo District Municipality IDP Review 2004/05
Abattoir and by-products
This project is designed as an anchor that has a multi-purpose nature that incorporates an abattoir, tannery and leather
production. It is anticipated that the abattoir would feed some of its by-products to the tannery and leather projects with
raw material for processing and manufacturing of products. The abattoir would be specifically geared for small stock
slaughter as well as pigs, cattle, ostriches and various game and should provide employment directly as well as through
an additional pre-packaging unit. It is expected that such a facility could achieve premium prices on its meat because of
the reputation already built up for Karoo quality mutton and lamb.
The Construction and operation of a multi purpose abattoir would “process” approximately 80 ostriches, 250 livestock
and 400 game 100 heads of game per day. By-products would be processed and marketed as a value-adding
component to the business. It is estimated that the project would create 60 direct sustainable employment and 25
indirect employment opportunities.
Site Location: Beaufort West
Launching Date: May 2005
Project Cost: R 7 065 000
Leather Products
Poverty, prevalent mostly within rural communities, is a major challenge in South Africa. It denies communities of
employment and economic growth. In acknowledging this challenge, the government has listed as two of its
imperatives, the need to promote poverty alleviation within communities, and rural development.
Subsequent to the CSIR’s continuous interactions with communities, leather projects have been established in North
West and Kwa-Zulu Natal Provinces. During a Rapid Review of selected towns in the Western Cape the CSIR identified
the opportunity to establish manufacturing of leather-based products in the Central Karoo.
The communities identified in the Central Karoo include, Beaufort West, Laingsburg and Prince Albert. The former two
are situated on the N1 and represent significant tourist stop over points, and the economy of Prince Albert is largely
based on tourism. Utilising existing and currently planned structures such as the ’Arts and Crafts Centres’ will provide
significant local sales outlets for the products.
Site Location: Beaufort West and Laingsburg
Launching Date: March 2004
Project Cost: R 4 000 000
Programmes
As mentioned earlier in the document, a variety of programmes are currently in process in the district,
namely
• Integrated Sustainable Rural Development Programme (ISRDP)
• Project Consolidate
• Municipal Infrastructure Grant (MIG)

44
Central Karoo District Municipality IDP Review 2004/05
Based on these economic potentials, the following key projects are being planned, or have been initiated in
the municipal area.
Fruit Processing
Laingsburg produces fruit and vegetables of exceptional sun ripe quality especially down stream from the Floriskraal
dam. The region is known for its seasonal production of apricots, dried yellow peaches, pears, plums, quinces and
tomatoes and produces 300t to 400t of apricots; 200t to 300ton yellow peaches dried 200t; 100ton pears, 50 ton plums
20t quinces and 200 ton tomatoes.
Farmers are currently processing fruit in small quantities or sell fruit in bulk that impact on the season, the profit they
make as well as their ability to provide more employment opportunities and have therefore pledged their support to a
central processing facility. A survey has revealed high interest and skills in the Laingsburg community regarding jams
and preserves.
The central processing facility will sort and process fruit and vegetables into dried products, juice, jam, chutney, sugar
fruit and preserves. The project will through its cooling facility ease the seasonal problems farmers have to flatten out
peaks and obtain labour. Public Private Partnerships; Black Economic Empowerment (SMME Development) and
equity ventures could ensue.
Site Location: Laingsburg
Launching Date: May 2005
Project Cost: R 885 000
Pallet, Crate and Dry Rack Manufacture
A high demand for pallets exists which comply with ISO standards in the packing industry in both the Western Cape
and Free State. The manufacture of pallets, crates and dry racks will prevent money from flowing out of the region and
empower the local community through skills transfer and sales into a lucrative local market.
The project will enhance local economic development and employment creation as A current shortage of pallets exists.
The market fluctuates according to the fruit season. Production of pallets would therefore dovetail nicely with furniture
manufacture.
The N1 national road passing through Laingsburg, creates the ideal opportunity to supply of wood and delivery product
to the Western Cape market at competitive pricing also when used to transport packed items. Raw wood can be easily
sourced as it is currently being transported through the town on the N1. Getting pallets to the market could again be
easily facilitated through the large volume of trucking and rail freight passing through Laingsburg.
Site Location: Laingsburg
Launching Date: April 2005
Project Cost: R 1 800 000
Sleeper Wood Furniture
This project will empower the local community through skills transfer and sales into a lucrative market.
45
Central Karoo District Municipality IDP Review 2004/05
The project will promote down stream processing and value adding in the Municipal area. Work currently performed
outside the Municipal area or at great cost will be done locally enhancing economic development and employment
creation. A worldwide shortage of hard wood exists.
Throughout Southern Africa sleepers are processed for the upper local and export market. The N1 national road
passing through Laingsburg creates the ideal opportunity to supply furniture at competitive pricing.
Site Location: Laingsburg
Project Launching Date: February 2005
Project Cost: R 1 200 000
Warehousing and Transfer Packaging
This project will provide ideal storage of rust prone material such as Sheet metal, Wire Spare parts, Furniture, and the
long-term storage of documentation, etc.
The facility also to cater for high activity ‘bulking up and loading)’ storage to satisfy shipping needs, repacking, splitting
and transfer of loads, labelling and marking products.
The N1 national road passing through Laingsburg creates the ideal opportunity to along with the transfer warehouse
facility, expand existing heavy vehicle maintenance facilities, and have an upgraded truck stop to allow truckers
sleepover as a way to address the high accident rate, such as loads. This could become the turnaround point in
Laingsburg for raising its economy. Laingsburg is easily accessible both by road and by railway. A further opportunity
is to encourage truckers to sleepover as a way of addressing the high accident rate. This would create an opportunity
for a truck stop.
Site Location: Laingsburg
Launching date: March 2005
Project Cost: R 8 427 000
Wine Cellar
Annually over 50 ton of rare Hanepoot grape is delivered to the De Doorns cellars, together with some 250 ton of
Columbar and Steen delivered to them and other cellars. De Doorns manufactures a well-known Jeripico and bottle it
together with other Laingsburg grape, under their name.
The Laingsburg farmers long felt the need to have an own cellar for the production of their unique strong Muscat
Jeripico under their own name. Calculations show the required cellar to be an extremely viable proposition and uniquely
suited to encourage new upcoming farmers into small-scale farming. Existing farmers have expressed a keenness to
assist newcomers and a willingness to make land available to PDI's. Skills transfer will ensure true empowerment.
46
Central Karoo District Municipality IDP Review 2004/05
The project will enhance the Laingsburg name, local economic development and employment creation Public Private
Partnerships; Black Economic Empowerment (SMME Development) and equity ventures will form part of the initiative.
Site Location: Laingsburg
Launching Date: June 2005
Project Cost: R 5 340 000

Pont over Gamkaspoort Dam
This project is focused on developing a tour route that links Prince Albert with the reknown Tourism Route, Route 62.
The project includes the construction of sufficient road infrastructure, as well as the installation of a pontoon with
landing areas, which crosses the Gamkaspoort dam.
Site location: Gamkaspoort Dam and Swartberg Pass
Launching Date: September 2004
Total Project Value: R 5 000 000
Cold Storage Facility
The Cold Storage initiative is a catalyst for economic development and employment creation. The cold storage facility
makes provision for three cold storage possibilities that includes:
(a) Pre-cooling facility to enhance quality;
(b) High activity ‘bulking up and loading storage to satisfy shipping needs, and
(c) Low activity storage that would make provision for local sales or a preserve factory (medium or long term) to
maximize the market through slow release of products that would stretch the employment season in the
region.
This project forms part of a larger employment creation programme that would create an estimated 500 jobs through
agricultural activities (fruit and vegetable production and processing and flower bulbs production for the export market)
and an under-utilized abattoir (linked to live-stock production and processing) and expansion of tannery activities.
Flower Bulb production will enhance the capacity utilization of the cold storage.
It makes provision for Black Economic Empowerment (SMME Development) as well as making provision for possibility
of equity ventures. In addition the programme promotes Public Private Partnerships.
Site Location: Prince Albert
Launching Date: April 2005
Project Cost: R 4 505 000

Swartberg Pass Rehabilitation
The Swartberg opened in 1886 (declared a national monument in 1899), provided direct access between Prince Albert
and Oudsthoorn and access to the “Hel”/Gamkaskoof. The pass have deteriorated over the last few years and caused
tremendous damage to this historical landmark. Rehabilitation of the pass is necessary to improve and provide
adequate access to and from Oudtshoorn that enjoys mainstream international tourism on which Prince Albert can
further capitalize. Rehabilitation of the pass would increase tourism in Prince Albert.
The proposed project is a multi-facetted programme that comprises of a labour intensive pass rehabilitation programme
and will be implemented in accordance with a multi-disciplinary formulated pass rehabilitation framework based on
research and input including engineering, cultural/historical, biophysical, landscaping, use area etc. A synergy that is
offered by the rehabilitation of the Swartberg pass will be the restoration of existing Tollhouses as a Swartberg Toll
housing development project (guesthouses).
Site Location: Swartberg Pass, Prince Albert
