Case Type: 

ProposalDescription: 

Demolition of existing dwelling at PORTION 9 of ERF 2212 of Durban, 15 Caister Crescent, Musgrave, eThekwini, Kwa Zulu Natal. Drawings 001, 002, 003

Expanded_Motivation: 

The existing buildings on the site are for a single dwelling house. The position of the existing building on the site makes it very limited to accommodate any additional structures. The existing structure cannot accommodate any additional loadings as per the structural engineer’s assessment of the current foundations. Any efforts to try to reinforce the existing foundations will be too costly and would still not be able to allow the property to achieve its maximum potential in terms of the existing zoning controls. The demand for multi-unit residential living is high as security has become a major concern to most people living in single dwelling properties. The current zoning of the site and the entire road is general residential 1 which permits and promotes multi-unit residential developments. The building will contribute to modern contemporary apartment living which is in high demand in the Berea.
