CBCRA – The CCT threatens property values in Camps Bay

The City’s aggressive planning stance threatens property values, prioritizing developers over the suburb's residents and built environment.

The necessity for a strong, well-funded CBCRA is becoming more necessary by the day. The City’s attitude towards planning matters, which favours developers over the property owners of the suburb is becoming more aggressive and the proposed amendments to the Planning Bylaw will simply make the City judge, jury and executioner of any planning application – no matter how inappropriate and excessive.

This week the City extended the commenting period on the proposed revised Municipal Planning By-law (MPBL) by a month, to 25 October 2024. Read the amendment below:

CBCRA PRESERVES the built environment in Camps Bay

The CBCRA’s efforts over the past decades have preserved the built environment, making Camps Bay one of the finest areas to live in throughout Cape Town. 

The value of your property is at stake: The CBCRA’s efforts over the past 3 decades, which have largely stopped a lot of developers from destroying our suburb, have resulted in a built environment which is one of the finest along the Atlantic seaboard – and one of the most expensive.

The City now wants to extract that value for its friends in the development industry. Neither of those parties are in any way interested in the built environment or the value of your property and amenities, it is just a case of maximizing profit. The beachfront hotel is a great example of what the City and developers see for Camps Bay.

The troublesome – and dangerous – intersection at Oudekraal Rd, Chas Booth and Rontree Ave, will finally be made safer by turning it into a 3-way stop. The CBCRA has long petitioned for this and Cllr Nicola Jowell has made this case to the department on our behalf.
