Cape Town â Disgruntled Grand Parade traders have vowed to seek legal opinion should the City âinsistâ to implement the Central Business District (CBD) trading plan without their support and approval.
This comes after the Cityâs Urban Management Directorate invited the public to comment on the proposed draft informal trading plans for the CBD last month, citing that changes in trading dynamics triggered the need to review the current plans.
The public participation process was open for comment from March 1 and closed on March 31.
The Grand Parade informal traders have raised numerous concerns over the trading plans, including unsafe demarcations and restrictions to the proposed trading hours.
