ProposalDescription: 

Proposed expansion of Kokshill 1 Cemetery, Umzimkhulu Local Municipality KZN

Expanded_Motivation: 

The Umzimkhulu Local Municipality has identified the need to establish a formal cemetery site for the community of Kokshill. Kokshill currently has two existing graveyards. The village of Kokshill is located in ward 13, in the southern region of the Municipality, approximately 29km south west of the Umzimkhulu central business district. The proposed site is located near the R56 road, to the east of the village centre on a vacant portion of land which land use is subsistence agriculture. An existing grave yard exists and is proposed that the current cemetery incorporates the existing grave sites. The current cemetery has reached full capacity. The proposed cemetery establishment is aimed to provide burial sites which will directly cater to the Kokshill and nearby communities for the next twenty (20) to thirty(30) years, and as such approximately 2 hectares (2ha) of land will be required. The project is aimed to provide a burial location in close proximity for the local community, so as to prevent ‘back yard burials’ and also to help reduce the need to travel to district cemetery sites. The cemetery establishment aims to cater for all cultural needs within the municipal area.
