Dear Camps Bay Resident
Re: 18 Central Drive, Camps Bay
A serious planning error has become apparent at 18 Central Drive, Camps Bay. The building plans, which were approved by the City, show that the rear of the building exceeds the permissible height by at least 1.8m.
While the owner claims that only the rear is affected, lowering the roof to meet regulations would effectively eliminate the third storey—resulting in a building that is far less imposing on our streetscape and would allow better views from across the street. Moreover, an official “height certificate” supporting the current approval has not been found on the City file.
These errors have a significant negative impact on the views and amenities of neighbouring properties. The CBCRA is assisting affected residents and is calling on the broader community to rally in support to protect our property rights.
If you would like to help, please print this petition letter and send to Angela at villaatlanticacampsbay@gmail.com or reach out directly to CBCRA.
Join us in serving our community, conserving our environment, and preserving the unique character of Camps Bay.

Chris Willemse
