MAKHADO LOCAL MUNICIPALITY Municipal Profile introduction The Housing Development Agency (“HDA”) is a national public development agency that promotes sustainable communities by making well located and appropriately planned land buildings available for the development of human settlements. The Agency has developed and deployed an information system which includes municipal profiles for selected municipalities. The intent of this profile is to provide guidelines and advice to Provincial Department of Human Settlements as well as municipalities on efficient utilization of land economic government infrastructure investments in support of integrated human settlements development. about the template The template was compiled for the Housing Development Agency using a number of different data sources. The 2011 Census information from Stats. SA was used extensively to represent socio-economic information. The financial profile data was extracted from the municipalities’ most recent financial statements. The Integrated Development Plan (IDP), Housing Development Plan (MHDP) and Spatial Development Framework of each municipality also provided inputs into the municipal profile. Where possible, each source of information is quoted as part of the specific figure, table or chart. The municipal profile is structured in the following sections: • Section 1 provides background information on the municipality, including land use data; • Section 2 deals with demographic information such as population growth and income; • Section 3 provides an economic overview of the municipality; • Section 4 investigates the financial status of the municipality; • Section 5 gives headline data on the property market in the municipality; • Section 6 looks at housing demand historic delivery of RDP houses; • Section 7 displays a land rent analysis • Section 8 provides a snapshot of water, sanitation and electricity delivery; • Section 9 displays a cost surface analysis • Section 10 deals with budget implications of servicing the housing backlog, • Section 11 analyse the performance of the planning function at municipal level.

Since mining is the major employer in the municipality, all active mines were used as origins. The map clearly indicates that a number of SDF residential proposals are located on the periphery of the municipality, more than 10 minutes away from employment opportunities.

MAKHADO LOCAL MUNICIPALITY Municipal Profile Section 11: Planning practises assessment planning activities Development applications Consultation This section investigates the legislative requirements of having an IDP, SDF and land use scheme in place.

These systems can be relatively large and complex (e. g. an agent based transport and land use modelling system) or relatively simple (such as an excel spread sheet calculating the number of social facilities to be provided as for different population scenarios). Information systems can thus be defined in this particular context as the means by which skilled municipal officials use software and information to support the process of spatial restructuring.

It is largely left up to individuals to up skill themselves or to acquire necessary information required for personal growth. More interaction with planning role-players are required for the planning function to grow the municipality. This includes access to information and networking with planners at other municipalities or other spheres of government. Organisation takes an active role in participating in steering groups/working parties and or preparing submissions on proposed legislative changes Organisation informs staff of legislative changes affecting their work Organisation monitors possible legislative changes or changes in standards that may have an impact on its operations or policies Human resources Is any skills required to ensure detail project proposals (e. g. design framework) is implemented? Project packaging and implementation? Is the planning function adequate (capacity, trainining, skills etc) to give effect to proposals from the SDF / other plans? Level of Town Planning expertise is appropriate to each job Staff regularly attend workshops as appropriate to close skill gaps Strategic alignment Skill gaps in Town Planning are assessed Corporate data required for Strategic Planning is easily available and used consistently across the organisation Customer KPIs for IDP and Planning function are aligned Town Planning policies and plans are well aligned and have strong linkages to ensure corporate objectives are achieved 0% 10% 20% 30% 40% 50% 60% 70% 80% 90% 100% human resources It must be noted that in terms of Makhado Development Planning Organisational structure, the above officials report to Assistant Manager Town Planning.
