REGIONAL SPATIAL DEVELOPMENT FRAMEWORK: 2006/07
Administrative Region 9
5.3
SOJO Development Band
Vision:
To create a clearly defined, integrated, consolidated, vibrant and economically
sustainable tourism route, that will efficiently leverage and maximize the value of existing
economic and tourism nodes, thereby facilitating job creation, public and private
investment and improve the economic, physical, social conditions that exist in the south
of the City.

SOJO Development Band Concept
Why is SOJO Development Band a Focus Area?
The development of SOJO will unlock and enhance the tourism potential in the South, by
ensuring consolidation, integration and connectivity of economic and tourism nodes and
consolidation of business and database of tourism destination in the South. Focussed
development will generate synergy and address spatial efficiencies, economies of scale,
and bringing about more balanced development through the enhancement of connectivity
between the south of Joburg and Soweto. Intervention in the area will harness economic,
tourism and development spin-off for Regions 6, 8,9 and 10, thereby creating increased
employment opportunities. The various interventions for the SOJO Development Band
are aligned with the key development principles as outlined in the Growth and
Development Strategy.

SECTION 5 - KEY FOCUS AREAS
89
Development Principle
SOJO Development Band as Focus
Area: Contribution to GDS
Proactive absorption of the poor
The proposed development will address the
economic
development
and
human
development sectors though increased job
creation and investment opportunities,
coupled with appropriate training to ensure
that the poor participate in the urban
economy.
Balanced and shared growth
The focus is on harnessing the economic,
tourism and development opportunities
from the nodes identified as part of the
development band that will lead to further
economic regeneration and consolidating
existing initiatives and facilitate tourism
exposure. Creating a safer, more secure
and legible precincts or tourist nodes will
establish the trail as a new tourism
experience with economic spin-offs.
Facilitated social mobility
Job
creation
and
local
economic
development are facilitated through the
promotion
of
local
investment,
implementing
various
transportation,
upgrading of facilities and developmental
projects. Curio/tourist related economic
activities will be supported with associated
development programmes focussing on job
creation and poverty alleviation.
Settlement restructuring
The development band will address the
spatial inefficiency and economies of scale
for the southern part of the City, by linking,
connecting and integrating the existing
economical and tourism nodes. That aim to
facilitate an accessible urban structure and
to physically integrate the City. It will
provide an opportunity to improve road
access and connectivity between public
and social facilities in the south of the City.
Sustainability and environmental justice
The environmental features unique to the
area are acknowledged and efforts will be
focussed on enhancing, protecting and
promoting the unique environmental
character of the area. It is an opportunity to
address environmental issues as most of
the amenities which are currently under-
______________________________________________________________________________________________
90
utilised will be adequately maintained and
managed.
Creative governance solutions
The development proposals for the SOJO
Development Band will aim to be in 100%
compliance with national, provincial and the
City’s legislation and regulation. The
implementation of the related projects will
be in close partnership with the City’s core
departments and MOE’s to ensure efficient
service delivery.
Key Issues to address:
-
Increased law enforcement measures and roll-out of the Better Buildings Programme
to improve safety and security and to combat slum-lording.
Enhancing the urban fabric through the improvement of the built environment.
Improve the major road network to provide much needed access.
Establish management structures and promote public-private partnerships to oversee
and undertake the management and enhancement of parks, open spaces and
natural areas and public facilities.
______________________________________________________________________________________________
91
play an important role in the economies of
Johannesburg
and
Gauteng.
The
implementation of a Land and Infrastructure
plan for the area, will attract further
investment and spur economic growth
through the provision of necessary
infrastructure for companies involved in
time-sensitive product manufacturing, as
well as those relying on logistics, freight
and transport services.
Job
creation
and
local
economic
development are facilitated through the
promotion of local investment and the
promotion of active local business
collaboration and cooperation, networking
and cluster development in the local fresh
produce trade, storage and distribution
sector and the local freight logistics,
warehousing and distribution sector.
The interventions that are proposed for the
area
related
to
improvement
of
infrastructure and release of land for
development. Proposals relating to the
upgrading of roads and infrastructure
provide an opportunity to improve road
access and connectivity of the area with the
rest of the City and surrounding
municipalities.
This will facilitate an
accessible urban structure.
Preparation
of
an
Environmental
Management Plan is required to guide
development of land in the area. Most land
parcels available for future development
have mine dumps and sand slimes on
them. These have to be reclaimed and
residual soil rehabilitated before land
parcels can be committed to development.
There are also plans to reclaim the
Rosherville Dam on the edge of the site
that would make more land available for
development.
Furthermore, land that was formerly subject
to mining activities will have to be cleared
of radio active contamination before it may
be sold or developed. The cultural and
heritage value of the Rosherville dam wall
building and the graveyard in Kaserne
West will be recognised. Improving the
______________________________________________________________________________________________
94
quality of the physical environment of the
area will also have a positive effect on
persuading businesses to locate to the
area.
The development proposals for City Deep
and surrounds will aim to be in 100%
City’s legislation and regulation. City Deep
is a Blue IQ development and any
implementation of projects will be in close
partnership
with
the
City’s
core
service delivery.
- Economic sector support
- Land use planning and property release
- Infrastructure development
- Providing more efficient and cost effective port and rail operations
- Removal and reclaiming of slimes dams and slimes residues

Klipriviersberg
VISION:
“The area should be a safe haven for its diverse plant and animal life. It should protect
the cultural and historical landmarks, and the integrity of the landscape. As a green space
of local and regional significance, the area must provide a range of recreational needs
and serve as a major tourism attraction. It should contribute to environmental education,
and to science through archaeological, zoological and botanical research. Through
tourism, recreation and sensitive development, the area should generate sufficient
revenue to ensure its proper management. This investment must also generate
employment and stimulate the local economy. The Klipriviersberg Nature Area must
become the pride of the local community, who should share responsibility for its
management.”

Key Interventions at Klipriviersberg Nature Reserve
Why is the Klipriviersberg Nature Reserve a Focus Area?
The Klipriviersberg Nature Area is one of the few remaining natural areas in the
Witwatersrand and accessible to 7 million people as an open space and provides visual
relief as it is visible from all the major arterials traversing the area. This open space is
invaluable, rich in plant and bird life and of great cultural-historic value due to dense
concentrations of Iron Age archaeological sites. Its protection is vital as it has major short
and long term benefits for the City and the Province and the area should be developed
through careful planning and management to unleash the untapped potential of the area
for conservation, recreation and tourism must be developed through careful planning and
management. A development framework is currently being undertaken by the CoJ to
______________________________________________________________________________________________
96
assess the potential of the area and to provide a framework to guide future decisions in
the area. This Focus Area specifically addresses the principle of sustainability and
environmental justice as prescribed in the City’s Growth and Development Strategy.
Development Principle
Klipriviersberg
as
Contribution to GDS
Focus
Area:
Proactive absorption of the poor
Previously disadvantaged communities that
are located within 7km from the
Klipriviersberg system include Soweto,
Eldorado Park, Lenasia, Tokoza, Kathelong
and Ennerdale and the promotion of ecotourism related development will generate
employment opportunities for people in the
areas around Klipriviersberg.
Balanced and shared growth
The sustainable development of the area
will unleash the potential for eco-tourism
activities that will contribute to economic
growth.
Job
creation
and
local
economic
development will be facilitated through the
promotion of local investment.
The Klipriviersberg Nature Reserve is
outside of the City’s urban development
boundary and is seen as an area within
which development will only be allowed on
less sensitive land and the nature of this
development will be in keeping with the
residential character of the surrounding
land, and the optimization of high land
values.
Any future development in the area will
have conservation and protection of the
natural environment as a key focus. To
unleash the potential of the area and to
utilise it in a sustainable manner, low
impact eco-tourism related development
will be promoted.
The
development
proposals
for
Klipriviersberg will aim to be in 100%

CONCLUSION
Focused capital investment on the above areas and more specifically on the
prioritised/catalytic projects that aim at attracting investment to Region 9, the upgrade of
housing as well as socio-economic rejuvenation across the region and upgrading of the
public environment will contribute to the City’s GDS and strive towards a 2030 ‘World

SECTION 6
GLOSSARY OF TERMS AND ABBREVIATIONS
99
SECTION 6 – GLOSSARY OF TERMS AND ABBREVIATIONS
6.1
GLOSSARY OF TERMS AND DEFINITIONS
These definitions have been formulated to relate to the context of this document.
Access
Access is the right of way to enter and exit developments and properties by all transport modes and
pedestrians. An access can take the form of either a roadway for vehicular traffic or a footway for
pedestrians. Access roads on urban arterials are spaced at regular intervals in order to ensure
synchronisation of traffic signals and efficient traffic operations.
Accessibility
Good accessibility is being able to reach a wide range of activities, people, resources, opportunities
and information with the least effort and cost. This may require a degree of mobility to avoid
unnecessary wastage of energy and time in getting from origin to destination along public ways or
crowded lines of communication, where long queues may prevail. This may also require overcoming
non-physical obstacles such as lack of information (about a good or service) or improving the
affordability of goods and services.
Agenda 21
A global action plan for socially, economically and environmentally sustainable development. Agenda
21 was adopted at the United Nations Conference on the Environment and Development in Rio de
Janeiro in June 1992.
Arterials / spines / routes
Roads classified as metropolitan or provincial roads fulfilling the function of collectors and distributors
of traffic. These roads have a higher order function than local access providers to residential and nonresidential land uses in suburbs.
Blue IQ
Is the Provincial Agency established through the Provincial Department of Finance and Economic
Affairs to implement key projects in the Province.
Bonded Housing
Housing developed by means of a bond granted by a financial institution, usually associated with
private sector/open market housing.
Brownfields Development
The redevelopment of a developed property or area that has become abandoned, contaminated,
disused or underused in order to realise new potential and value.
The City
The City of Johannesburg
Conservation
The management of the use of natural and human resources to ensure that such resources are
preserved and protected against undesirable development and change so that these assets may
benefit future generations. Besides championing sustainable use of resources, conservation also
involves the protection, maintenance and rehabilitation of resources.
Compact
A compact urban form increases efficiency in the way people can use the city and the way in which
the city is run. More people live in a smaller area in a compact city and this higher density allows for
efficient provision of public transport, social and other services. The antithesis of a compact city is
urban sprawl.
Containment
Containment refers to limiting the geographic spread of development, i.e. the horizontal. The city form
can be enhanced by guiding spatial development. Containment takes place at two levels:
• Containing development within a defined urban boundary prevents urban sprawl.
100
•
The physical spread of nodes is contained to enhance the performance of the nodes and to
protect the surrounding areas from continuous encroachment of land use change.
Declining Areas
Areas showing signs of economical or physical neglect. The high incidence of illegal land uses is
usually an early indicator. Depressed areas have a declining economy.
Density (residential)
Gross residential density is the overall number of dwelling units divided by the total size of the area.
Net residential density expresses the number of dwelling units divided by the size of the area that is
taken up by residential use only. This is expressed as the number of units per hectare.
Higher residential densities are encouraged along arterials as well as in and around nodes as they
make the provision of services and public transport more viable.
Density Policy
This is the Council’s policy that encourages the establishment of a compact urban form and the
containment of development subject to defined criteria and parameters. Refer to the SDF for further
detail.
Development Proposal
A proposal to change the current use of an area or parcel of land. It includes sub-divisions, rezonings
and township establishments. Also included would be the “land development applications” as per the
Development Facilitation Act, 1995.
Development Rights
The legal rights linked to land, not to the owner of the land, according to which the owner can develop
the property or land.
Ecotourism
Ecotourism is environmentally friendly travel and visitation to relatively undisturbed natural areas and
conducted in an ecologically sustainable manner to enjoy and appreciate nature and any
accompanying cultural features (both past and present). The activity promotes conservation, has low
negative visitor impact and provides for beneficially active socio-economic involvement of local
communities. It includes activities such as outdoor and tourism related activities including hiking trails,
hotels, 4x4 trails, restaurants, curio markets, conference facilities, wedding venues, game lodges and
other similiar uses with a rural character not causing a nuisance or having a detrimental effect on the
environment. Any proposed development will be in line with CoJ and Urban Edge tourism guidelines.
Fragmented Development
Urban development that takes place in an ad hoc fashion without being integrated into, or related to,
the surrounding areas. It results in a break in the urban fabric.
Greenfield Development
Urban development on previously unserviced, vacant land that had been used for agriculture or other
non-urban uses.
Gautrain
Provincial rapid rail project aimed at improving connectivity and time travelled between Tshwane,
Johannesburg and the Johannesburg International Airport.
Guideline
Guidelines form a framework within which decisions are taken that will support an overall vision or
strategy. Guidelines could be presented in a variety of forms, such as precinct plans and Council
policies.
Home Enterprises
Non-residential land use that does not disturb the amenity of a residential area and is compatible with
the surrounding land uses. The existing character of the area should be maintained.
101
These rights must still be applied for in terns of the applicable town-planning scheme if required. All
requirements in terms of the applicable town-planning scheme regarding for example parking must be
complied with.
Medium and large-scale home enterprises should be encouraged and supported in areas where they
can serve as a transition zone from a non-residential to a residential area.
Small Scale Home Enterprises: Operates from a residential dwelling house and do not change the
residential character of the area. A maximum of 20% of the building on the property may be used, a
maximum of 2 additional staff members can be employed on the property at any one time.
Medium Scale Home Enterprise: Operates from a residential dwelling house and do not change the
residential character of the area. A maximum of 49% of the building on the property may be used (the
residential use is still the dominant use), a maximum of 5 additional staff members can be employed
on the property at any one time.
Large Scale Home Enterprises: No residential component is present on the site, but the existing
building on the site is being used for non-residential purposes. New developments can be supported
at a maximum floor area of 0,3 if sufficiently motivated and supported by the planning department. A
business zoning can also be considered where appropriate, sufficiently motivated and supported by
the planning department.
Integrated Development Plan (IDP)
A plan to integrate development and management of municipal areas as stipulated in the Municipal
Systems Act, 2000.
All metropolitan local councils are required to formulate and implement an Integrated Development
Plan incorporating metropolitan land use planning, transportation planning, infrastructure planning and
the promotion of economic development, taking cognisance of needs and priorities as determined by
the metropolitan council concerned.
Infill
The development of undeveloped or underdeveloped land within a developed urban area with
infrastructure (link services) available.
Ingress / Egress
Entrance / exit to a property.
Inner City
An area in Greater Johannesburg comprising the Johannesburg Central Business District and
surrounding residential areas.
Intensification
The process of intensifying activities or land use by increasing the floor area, height or number of
activities.
Inter-modal Transport
The integration and co-ordination of services, infrastructure and facilities between all modes within the
transport system.
Land Use
The activities on a defined piece of land such as residential, commercial, industrial or a mixture of
these.
Land Development Objective (LDO)
A requirement in terms of the Development Facilitation Act, 65 of 1995. A methodology and end
product are given that result in an integrated development plan for an area in which the community
have had input. In Gauteng the process has been superceded by the Integrated Development Plans.
(See IDP) and the associated spatial development frameworks.
102
Leap-frog development
Development which takes place on undeveloped land, separating the new township from existing
development. It is thus not contiguous with existing development. Usually motivated by the lower cost
of land on the city’s periphery. Contributes to urban sprawl.
Local Economic Development (LED)
LED is a locally driven process, designed to identify, harness and utilise resources to stimulate the
economy and create new job opportunities. LED is not one specific action or programme, but the sum
total of individual contributions of a broad spectrum of the community. LED occurs when the local
authority, business, labour, NGOs and – most importantly – individuals strive to improve their
economic status by combining skills, resources and ideas (National Business Initiative, 1998: 2).
Level of Service (LOS)
The level of infrastructure service is the relative sophistication and convenience of the service
provided.
Mixed land use
Mixed land use refers to a combination of land uses such as a mix of commercial / industrial /
residential / retail / entertainment / institutional uses. It also refers to a mix of uses within a specific
use. The advantage of mixed uses is that access and convenience are increased as transportation
distances are decreased. The combination depends on the specific area. A mixed-use building could
refer to retail at street level, institutional on the floor above and residential on the top floors. Mixed land
use in an industrial area could include industry, commercial and retail uses.
Mobility
Mobility is the degree of free flow movement of vehicles and pedestrians. It is the ability to move at an
acceptable speed and travel time without undue interruption and at acceptable levels of comfort,
convenience and safety. Mobility and accessibility have an indirectly proportionate relationship
whereby restricted or limited access will result in high mobility.
Mobility Policy
This is Councils policy that seeks in order to ensure the free flow movement of vehicles and
pedestrians. The policy seeks to promote citizens’ access to the benefits of the city, protect the
mobility function of major arterials and roads, support public transport and ensure that the mobility
system links with high intensity nodes and higher density residential development. See the SDF for
details.
Mobility Road
A Mobility Road carries mainly traffic of a local nature. The focus is on mobility along the route. It is of
a lower order than a Mobility Spine. It often connects Mobility Spines or neighbourhood nodes.
Mobility Spine
A Mobilty Spine is an arterial along which traffic flows with minimum interruption (optimal mobility),
whilst development abutting the Spine is in terms of specific policy criteria relating to the type of land
use to be accommodated and to level of access.
Modal Transfer Station
A facility at which public transport passengers can change vehicle or mode.
Nodes
A node is a place where both private and public investment tends to concentrate. Nodes are usually
associated with major road intersections, or with public transport nodes such as railway stations and
taxi ranks. It offers the opportunity to locate a range of activities, from small to large enterprises and is
often associated with mixed-use development including high-density residential use. An important
element that influences the notion of activity nodes is density. When combined with the diverse
activities in a node, densification facilitates the limiting of the node radii to walking distance. An
advantage of high-density nodes is that economies of scale can be exploited in terms of public
infrastructure provision and private investment. Nodes differ in size, the types of activity that occur
within them, the size of the areas served and the significance within the city.
103
Nodal Policy
A policy to manage the growth and development of nodes in the Metropolitan area. Refer to SDF.
Non Urban Residential Use
Land in rural areas utilised mainly for residential purposes.
Red Data species
Classified endangered species.
Road hierarchy
The classification of all roads in terms of their level of importance in a transportation network. The
roads are classified in terms of the functions performed and the characteristics of each road in the
transportation network.
Route
See Arterials
Service Delivery Business Implementation Plan (SDBIP)
A municipality’s plan for the provision of services identified in terms of its Integrated Development
Plan. The SDBIP is assessed quarterly by national government.
Scoping Assessment
The process of collecting data and the interpretation thereof to determine if any environmental issue
will accrue due to a proposed or intended development.
Spines
See Arterials
Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA)
The administrative or regulatory process of evaluating the environmental impacts of a policy, plan or
programme and its alternatives. SEA is the application of Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) to
the level of policies, plans and programmes.
Social Housing
Housing provided in terms of a government subsidy scheme.
Sustainable Development
Development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future
generations to meet their own needs. (Brundtland Commission in Our Common Future, 1987:47)
Town Planning Scheme (TPS)
A planning tool that sets out use rights pertaining to land. The information is kept in a set of
regulations and on a zoning map.
Urban Agriculture
The cultivation of crops within the urban areas and on the urban fringes, for subsistence or
commercial purposes. The activity is often of a small scale and a high intensity.
Urban Development Boundary / Urban Edge
A demarcated line that serves to direct and control the outer limits of urban expansion. Outside the
continuous urban development of the metropolitan core area, urban development should only be
permitted within small towns and rural nodes, and in areas where the environment and agriculture are
not compromised. Also see Containment. Refer to SDF for further detail.
Urban fabric
This refers to the way in which buildings, roads and open spaces relate to one another. Where there
are wide streets, plenty of open spaces between buildings, and large blocks, the urban fabric is said to
be coarse. A fine urban fabric would refer to an area where the buildings are in close proximity to one
another, the block size is small and there are narrower, but many roads.
104
Urban sprawl
An undesirable situation in which the geographical size of the city keeps expanding to include
development of new peripheral areas. Costs of providing and maintaining services to peripheral areas
is high, public transportation is not efficient and access to urban opportunities minimal. The antithesis
of a compact city.
Vision
A vision expresses a commonly desired future for the area. It conveys the ideal towards which the
area is collectively striving. It is an idealised picture of how the region could and should function.
