Table View residents concerned about Cityâs development plans
Share
Cape Town - Residents in Table View are concerned that plans for the proliferation of high-rise buildings in the area will make it too congested, putting a strain on basic services.
The Greater Table View stakeholders have described the draft of the Blaauwberg District Spatial Plan as âpro development and anti basic servicesâ. They were commenting on the review of the eight Integrated District Spatial Development Frameworks (SDFs) due on June 6.
The Greater Table View Action Forum (GTAF) said the City had tried to sneak in âdeveloper friendlyâ items on the draft plan that would see a 2km district node around Bayside and Marine Circle, resulting in three- to five-storey flats in these nodes. The forum said this would also give developers the ability to develop most of the Table View area.

Residents were informed of this intended intervention in writing on February 25, 2021.
The letter described in detail why this intervention was needed.
Mallard ducks are a category 1b Invasive Species.
The City is compelled by National Legislation – namely, the National Environmental Management: Biodiversity Act no.10 of 2004, to take action against this invasive species.
According to this Act, Mallards must be managed as part of an invasive control plan, and the City has no choice but to comply.
Mallards are an invasive alien species in South Africa where they are known to hybridise with indigenous ducks.
