ProposalDescription: 

The Okhahlamba Local Municipality in KwaZulu Natal is proposing the upgrading of 1 500 rural homesteads through the construction of Low Income Houses within the area called Sandlwana situated approximately 26Km west of Bergville. The development may consist of the construction of additional houses and the upgrading of buildings at the existing homesteads.

Expanded_Motivation: 

The proposed Sandlwana development area is know as Ward 5 of Okhahlamba Local Municipality and is situated on the Farm: Upper Tugela No. 4794 approximately 26Km west from Bergville next to the Woodstock Dam. The towering steep Okhahlamba Drakensberg escapement dominates the area with the Mnweni River Valley dissecting the area from west to east eventually flowing into the Woodstock Dam. The area is a rural area with little formal development that has taken place, except for approximately 5 schools and clinics as well as a police station and army base. Approximately 1 500 rural homesteads are scattered on the lower, moderate hill slopes of the Mnweni River Valley over an area of about 6 000Ha. The low laying valley floors is used for cultivated subsistence farming with grasslands on the higher steeper slopes.
