DEPARTMENT OF INVESTMENT PROMO-TION (DIPA) WINS AWARDS FOR DOING MOST TO ATTRACT INVESTMENT

The eThekwini Municipality’s Department of In-vestment Promotion continues to put the eThekwini region and indeed, the whole province of KwaZulu-Natal on the local and global map. This was again stressed when it won two prestigious PMR Africa Diamond Arrow Awards for (Cities/towns doing most to attract foreign and local investment. The ceremony was the culmination of a PMR Africas Annual Provincial Survey

ENTERPRISE DEVELOPMENT PRO-GRAMMELocal Government recognizes that small businesses are vital contributors to the health of the economy and to diversity of opportunity in our society. Small businesses boost productivity, increases competi-tion and innovation, creates employment and prosperity, and revitalizes our communities.All companies and organisations have within their structures a tool to make a difference. This tool, according to Verwey (2011) is enterprise develop-ment. Economic growth is critical to addressing unemployment, gender equality, health and other poverty-related issues worldwide. Enterprise development(ED) is an important tool and essential element to economic growth. Raizcorp (2011) in an article entitled Enterprise Development Made Easy, defines enterprise development as investing time, knowledge and capital to help Small and Medium Enterprises establish,expand or improve businesses including empowering modest income-generating informal activities to grow and contribute to the lo-cal economy. According to the Tourism Empower-ment Council of South Africa(TECSA), a company enterprise development policy should be developed with outcomes in mind such as:• Steering the economy towards a stable envi-ronment that nurtures growth and increases the country’s economic competitiveness• Fostering a synergistic relationship between pri-vate and public sector to embrace social investment as a common vision• Fostering an entrepreneurship culture amongst

previously disadvantaged groupsThrough enterprise development people can earn a living and rise out of poverty. In turnover time they create jobs as well as empower other individuals and the communities in which they live. Market development,commercial business services and social enterprise are part and parcel of Enterprise Development. Moreover it encompasses finance, entrepreneurship development,investment and growth in Small Medium and Micro Enterprises (SMMEs), including initiatives that range from enabling the startup of small businesses to provid-ing business skills development through training, mentoring and coaching. With large enterprises having restructured and down sized, SMMEs have come to play an increasingly important role in South Africa’s economy and development. Accord-ing to the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) small businesses represent 98% of the total number of firms and employ 55% of the country’s labour force, contributing approximately 24% of the total wage-bill. Small firms account for 35% of GDP overall (SEAF 2009).Enterprise development is an inexpensive way to implement broad based black economic empower-ment (BBBEE) but SEAF(2009) reports that it is not often seen as an option. Claasen (2006) states that Enterprise Development (ED) where big companies offer operational assistance to small, black owned enterprises, is also a core component globally recognised as an effective way of reducing poverty. It is not that companies and organisations are not interested in enterprise development, but the problem is that few have an understanding of it. Many companies are not sure how to integrate enterprise development into their transformation strategy. According to Empowerdex researcher Mrinal Patel, this is a pity, because developing black-owned and black-run businesses can be an inexpensive way for a company to implement an aspect of its transformation agenda.The primary objective of the eThekwini Munici-pality is to develop an Enterprise development strategy in order to capitalize on private sector involvement in economic growth and the reduction of unemployment. It is also necessary to develop a programme for the purpose of developing strategic

partnerships with organizations which share Busi-ness Support mandates and who would like to contribute to the achievement of their own strategic objectives either through their Community Social Investment programmes or through BBBEE perfor-mance scorecard fulfilment. Further, it is necessary for business support programmes to be accredited so that companies participation can be recognised as their enterprise development contribution.Some of the programmes that will benefit from an enterprise development programme are as follows:• Sector Development Programmes• Women Empowerment• Strategic Partnerships• Support to Enterprises

CORNUBIA HOUSING PROJECT The Municipality is working on a plan for a mas-sive housing project to start this year which would see the building of low, middle and upper income houses in the north of Durban. This will combine with an industrial and commercial project, giv-ing residents job opportunities within their own neighborhood.The aim of the Cornubia project is to meet the City's target of eradicating all slums by 2014 and promoting economic activity in the north of the City. The project has a potential for the develop-ment of 73 000 housing units, which would first cater for earners from the low and middle income brackets and later upper income earners. The Cornubia project is a mixed-used develop-ment in the north of Mount Edgecombe being undertaken by Tongaat Hulett Developments and the eThekwini Municipality. It is poised to be one of the biggest urban development projects in the country that will see a 1,200 hectare green fields site transformed into integrated human settlements; commercial nodes and an industrial estate, provid-ing approximately 25,000 houses while generating approximately 60,000 permanent jobs. The total project entails a R25 billion investment from both public and private sectors over a 20-year period.This project seeks to address the housing and development needs of identified communities located in informal settlements. The intended effect is that individual and household livelihoods are enhanced and the City’s built environment is improved through urban regeneration, and social and economic development.It is also a component of a focused national realigned housing plan, geared towards meeting delivery and essentially arresting the growth of informal settlements, as well as and upgrading existing informal settlements. In this way, Govern-ment’s multi-pronged strategy of strengthening partnerships amongst all spheres of government, as well as the capacity and expertise of the private sector may be reached.The project is also conceived from the standpoint that the challenge of informal settlements must take into consideration all the associated problems that arise from it, such as deepening of poverty, rising inequality, and the continued spatial marginaliza-tion of the poor. Therefore, in line with the national viewpoint, informal settlements are seen as much greater than a mere ‘housing problem’ and maybe regarded as the manifestation of the economic and social structural imbalance that needs to be ad-dressed and altered to ensure a better quality of life for all their its citizens.

Time seems to be flying and before we know it the festive season will be upon us when uppermost in many minds will be the annual Christmas office party and where it will be celebrated.For some it will in the office with snacks and the inevitable impromptu performance by the office joker while for others it will be a planned lunch or evening meal at a restaurant or hotel.But whatever the choice, it is the time to be joyful after a hard year or to acknowledge one that has been particularly successful.

So why not try something different and make the venue one where there is good food, entertainment and excitement all rolled into one, somewhere like the racecourse that provides it all in comfortable surroundings.

Gold Circle’s three racing venues have it all with the Durban View Restaurant at Greyville, the Panoramique at Clairwood in Durban and Rockefella’s at Scottsville in Pietermaritzburg.

Horseracing is an exciting sport and there are some important race meetings over the next three months starting off with the Listed Michaelmas Handicap at Clairwood on October 3 and the Listed KZN Betting World Guineas Trial on Clairwood October 28.

The thrilling International Jockeys’ Challenge is the highlight of November taking place at Greyville on Sunday the 18th where six of the world’s leading jockeys will match their skills against six of the top South African jockeys in a series of races. This is a very exciting meeting where racegoers can see the world’s best in action and, of course, have a little flutter to spice things up.

If it’s December when the function is planned, there are the three finals of the KZN Summer Challenge at Clairwood on December 9 and the Grade 2 Christmas Handicap at Clairwood on December 26.

But any race meeting is exciting so add that extra spice to your Christmas function or just pop along with a group of friends for a great adrenaline rush - you are guaranteed to enjoy every minute of it.

10 / Hello Festive Season

Durban is undoubtedly the holiday capital of South Africa – especially for South Africans looking for a great place to relax that offers something for the whole family!

And it is not just the great beaches that are synony-mous with Durban, but also the Playhouse Theatre – home to top class entertainment and productions to suit all ages and all tastes.

The Playhouse, situated in Durban’s cosmopolitan city centre, offers year round entertainment while presenting a programme of the highest standard. This festive season is no different with a line-up of productions to get you singing, dancing, laugh-ing and crying – sometimes all in the space of one show!

The season gets underway with the popular ballet, Coppelia, presented in association with the Cape Town City Ballet and accompanied by the KZN Philharmonic Orchestra. This is followed by Nkanyezi, The Star.

A heart-warming story of four friends preparing for Christmas who, while making tree decorations for a local children’s home, discuss their own life journeys.

There is also a healthy dose of laughter for comedy fans. 99% Zulu Comedy, featuring Celeste Ntuli and other popular South African comedians take to the stage for one night only on December 7th.

While another household favourite, Krijay Goven-der, takes audiences down memory lane with the light-hearted comedy, Old School.

The highlight of the Playhouse’s Festive pro-gramme is the Gospel Extravaganza Concert, from 19-23 December. The concert features S’phokasi, Benjamin Dube, Timothy Moloi, Lauren Dasappa and Solly Mahlangu, to name a few.

Hello Festive Season / 13

KZN SHARKS BOARD SPEARHEADS ECONOMIC GROWTH IN THE MARITIME SECTORThe KwaZulu-Natal Sharks Board today announced a ground-breaking development in the country’s maritime sector with the unveiling of the first-of-its-kind in the SADC region Maritime Centre of Excellence. The KwaZulu-Natal Sharks, which falls under the auspices of the Department of Economic Devel-opment and Tourism, has become world-famous for its pioneering work in protecting bathers from shark attacks and leading in the field of marine research. However, because of the maritime riches that the province has, including the ports of Durban and Richards Bay, as well as the potential promised by the maritime in terms of economic growth, the KZNSB decided that a Maritime Centre of Excel-lence should be established in order to harness this potential.For example, South Africa has over 14000 mer-chant vessels calling in and out of her harbours yearly. Over 7000 of these vessels call into the Port of Durban alone. Yet, of those vessels, we do not have even one on our ships’ register, except for the SAMSA training vessel. Because of this, as a country we are incurring over R37 billion which is a cost to us for the calling in and out as well as the associated services to these vessels. This, therefore, means that the country loses in terms of the benefits accrued through ship-owning and/or ship-registering.The MCE, therefore,is being established as the Maritime Institute of Sectoral Occupational Excel-lence (MISOE) to facilitate the development of trade, occupation and SMME’s in the environment of ocean and coastal shipping, inland waterways, aquaculture, port activities, maritime security, boat building, boat repair and associated land-based activities. Mthokozisi Radebe, CEO of the KZN Sharks Board, said: “In recent years the role of the KZN Sharks Board has evolved to respond to changes in the province’s economy.“The Maritime Centre of Excellence has identified programmes and courses that will be delivered to the industry and the public at large through the centre and through partnerships with other institu-tions. This will allow the centre to remain a leader in maritime capacity building.”The MISOE will see to the growth of shipping-related services that will improve productivity at ports, cargo handling operations and offer profes-sional support services.It will also become a conduit for regional seafarer supply for the nation and minimize global short-falls, exponentially increasing the capacity and output of the skills development system.“In addition, the MISOE will be an anchor in managing national and regional Maritime Sector Information (MSI); establishing a Provincial Maritime Institute with a One-Stop Shop Market Differentiation and also establishing a higher education institute with international recognition,” said Radebe.

At its launch, the MCE showcased six trainee skippers who are qualified to pilot small vessels but lacked the necessary sea time experience. Eight stu-dents were paraded for their new expertise in boat building and boat repair. Of these 14 previously disadvantaged individuals, seven are females. This has helped in strengthening the transformational agenda that the KZN Sharks Board has embarked upon.“This Maritime Centre of Excellence will be a game changer in the maritime sector and will ensure that the comparative and competitive advan-tages that our province boasts are fully-harnessed enabling it to contribute not only to the economy of our country but of the SADC region as a whole,” said Mabuyakhulu.

The MEC for the KZN Department of Economic Development, Michael Mabuyakhulu, said the fast-tracking of economic development in the province through developing shipping and logistics businesses will assist in the creation of quality jobs and ensure the province’s global competitiveness in so far as the maritime is concerned.“The maritime industry must be placed at the centre stage for real economic growth, deracialisation and transformation, and must be inclusive, broad based and expansionist,” he said.The MCE is expected to fully incorporate the youth from across all provinces with the initial focus on KwaZulu-Natal, Eastern Cape, Northern Cape and Western Cape. When the MCE is fully developed, it would be rolled out to other landlocked provinces.

Shisa Solar

14 / Hello Festive Season

SHISA SOLAR NEIGHBOURHOOD

PROGRAMME

What is the Programme?

The Shisa Solar Programme was initiated by the eThekwini Municipality Energy Office to promote the installation of Solar Water Heaters within the eThekwini Municipal Area. The focus of the programme is on the middle to high income market segment in the city, as well, as the large residential estates.

The key purpose of the programme is to reduce consumption of electricity in eThekwini – as part of the municipality’s contribution towards the national goal of reducing electricity demand by at least 10%. The reduced consumption of electricity is also seen as important in helping to reduce global warming / climate change.

The main objectives of the programme are to assist residents within the eThekwini Municipal Area to pay less for Solar Water Heaters, help them choose which products are best, and help them get access to suppliers which are reliable and sell good quality products.

How does it Work?

Anyone living in the eThekwini Municipal Area can register to participate in the programme. Once you have registered on the system through the website www.shisasolar.org.za or by calling us on 031-311 1444, the Shisa team will link you to the Shisa Solar suppliers, who will contact you to come and provide a quotation.

Please remember that you are not obliged to purchase a solar water heater if you register to par-ticipate in the programme. You make this decision when the suppliers have quoted on what it will cost to fit a solar water heater to your home.

You may also request that one of the Shisa Solar suppliers comes out to your home to do a basic ENERGY AUDIT. This will help you understand how you use electricity in your home to heat water, and whether a Solar Water Heater would be the best option for you to SAVE THE MOST MONEY ON YOUR ELECTRICITY BILL.eThekwini Energy Office

The Shisa Solar Programme is being facilitated by the eThekwini Energy Office. The Energy Office was launched in Durban, KwaZulu-Natal in Febru-ary 2009. It forms an essential part of the eThek-

wini Municipality and was created to establish eThekwini as the sustainable energy manufacturing hub for the SADC region.

Solar energy is the current focus of the office. The office will also be responsible for driving green initiatives, securing grants and funding from all financing institutions, and influencing legislation and bylaws to support green energy use in the city.

It will bring together experts in different disciplines to minimise energy usage, create a society that cares much more about the environment and find new ways to create energy for the sustainable future of Durban.

In addition to improving the city's energy effi-ciency, the Energy Office is committed to reducing green house gas emissions, reducing dependency on finite fossil fuels and investing in renewable energy sources and technologies. Please visit the eThekwini Municipal website at www.durban.gov.za

Participate in the Shisa Solar Water Heater Pro-gramme to save even MORE on the cost of your solar water heater!

It will save you money

Buying a Solar Water Heater may seem like an expensive purchase. BUT this is the best invest-ment you can make right now. The savings you will make in reducing your monthly electricity bill are so big that over the space of a few years these monthly savings will have more than covered the initial cost of your Solar Water Heater.

And then - once the upfront cost of buying your Solar Water Heater has been offset through all your monthly electricity bill savings - then you just keep on saving all that money that would otherwise be used to pay for electricity.

With the Shisa Solar Programme, you will pay MUCH less for your Solar Water Heater through our programme. Our suppliers offer you a dis-counted price because the programme generates a lot of business for them in a short space of time.

And DID YOU KNOW – that your Solar Water Heater is covered by your house / building insur-ance in the same way as your standard geyser would be? So if your Solar Water Heater fails, the cost of repairing or replacing it will be covered by your insurer.

So the next time your Geyser fails, why not use

your insurance payout to upgrade to a Solar Water Heater?

It’s easy

We make it SO easy for you.

The price you pay for your Solar Water Heater through Shisa Solar will contain a massive discount of thousands of Rands, which is made possible by Eskom’s national Solar Water Heater subsidy programme. Many other Solar Water Heater and suppliers, which are not part of the Shisa Solar Programme, may charge you the full price for your Solar Water Heater and ask you, the Homeowner, to apply to Eskom to get your subsidy amount back. So we save you a whole lot of time and paperwork by doing this all for you upfront. The Eskom subsidy amount ranges from R3,000 to R8,000 per unit, depending on its size and efficiency.

We bring you the best prices around. And these are a lot less than you think!

We've also narrowed down your choices – the Solar Water Heaters offered by our suppliers are top quality, meet all SABS standards and come with the best warrantees and back-up service you could ever ask for. And if you need a loan to pay for it, our suppliers will help you apply.

It’s trustworthy

We have pre-selected suppliers on your behalf. The approved suppliers will deliver on time and offer you the best advice. If they don't, let us know and we will take them to task. In terms of technology, they have all passed Eskom's challenging technical check with flying colours, and have been SABS approved.

Fishing for the Future

A leader in sustainable seafoodI &J is a major stakeholder in the South African fishing industry, the largest right-holder in the hake fisheries and a significant buyer of seafood products. As such, our company’s prosperity is intricately linked to the sea, and particularly the productive deep-sea hake stocks which we harvest, process and market all over the world.

Having fished successfully for more than 100 years, I &J is aware of the responsibility it has to manage these stocks carefully and harvest them with long-term vision and commitment. That is why I &J has signed a landmark participation agreement with the Southern African Sustainable Seafood Initiative (WWF-SASSI) and captured its commitment to the environment in a progressive I &J Sustainable Seafood Policy. This comprehensive document promotes sustainable seafood and sets out the standards to which I &J strives to adhere, and the standards expected from its suppliers.

I &J is also a founder member of the Responsible Fisheries Alliance, a partnership between industry and conservationists that is striving to entrench a culture of responsible fisheries practices in the South African fishing industry.

Respect, care and concern for the environment is one of I &J’s core values and we will continue to focus intensively on entrenching sustainable business practices.

The I &J story

A unique partnership

The story of Irvin & Johnson begins in the early years of the last century when a young Englishman named George Irvin joined an adventurous and unpredictable Swede, Carl Johnson, in a fishing venture. It was an unlikely alliance, but the Irvin & Johnson partnership laid the foundation for what was to become an iconic South African company: I &J.

The company grew quickly, surviving the Great Depression and the Second World War. In 1949, control of I &J passed into the hands of one of the leading mining houses on the Witwatersrand: Anglo-Transvaal Consolidated Investment Company Limited – a relationship that persists to this day through I &J’s holding company, AVI.

By the early 1950s, I &J was smoking, canning and freezing fish. It was among the first companies in the world to develop and market a frozen fish finger. In 1955, an advertising campaign for I &J’s Frikkie Fish Sticks caused a sensation: there were cooking demonstrations and tastings at OK Bazaars and other stores, while Frikkie and his Mermaid friend, Seabell, appeared at festivals and street parades around the country.

Fish fingers became an I &J classic, and they remain so to this day.

By 1960, Irvin & Johnson was a household name and by the 1970s, the company boasted one of the biggest and most advanced fishing fleets in the Southern Hemisphere. In the 1980s, the historic Deep Water Hake television campaign helped I &J to transform the once humble hake or “stockfish” into sought after I &J Deep-Water hake.

After South Africa’s historic 1994 elections, I &J began to expand into the international market and by 2000, the company was focusing intently on “sustainability” – a buzzword in international seafood markets. In 2004, the South African hake trawl fishery became the first hake fishery in the world to achieve certification from the Marine Stewardship Council (MSC). All I &J products made from South African hake bear the blue eco-label of the MSC, a guarantee that they originate from a sustainable and well managed fishery. Being part of the MSC program sets I &J apart from many of its global competitors and ensures that the South African hake it offers customers today will continue to be available in the future.

In 2012, I &J made the strongest possible commitment to sustainable seafood by signing a Participation Agreement with the Southern African Sustainable Seafood Initiative, WWF-SASSI, cementing its position as a leader in sustainable seafood.

I &J has an unrivalled history as pioneer and innovator, and an enviable reputation for quality. The recent inclusion of the words “Since 1910” on the I &J logo celebrate the fact that I &J has been a trusted name in quality for over 100 years.

I&J CEO Ronald Fasol, signed the WWF-SASSI participation agreement with Morné du Plessis, CEO of WWF Southern Africa.

The recent signing of a participation agreement with WWF-SASSI has underlined I &J’s commitment to the environment.

The agreement represents a formal commitment by I &J to work with WWF-SASSI towards the goal of ensuring that, by December 2015, the fishing company only sells seafood products that are:

• Certified by the Marine Stewardship Council; or

• Certified by the Aquaculture Stewardship Council; or

• Green-listed by WWF-SASSI; or

• The subject of a time-bound fishery improvement project or bycatch management plan, as approved by WWF-SA.

According to WWF South Africa, I &J is the first fishing company in South Africa to make such a strong public commitment to sustainable seafood.

As a SASSI participant we are committed to:- Offering our customers Green-listed options. - Supplying our customers with information about all of our seafood products. - Improving the sustainability of our seafood range.Ask us about our green-listed options. www.wwf.org.za/sassi

Long-standing support for the Two Oceans AquariumI &J has been associated with the Two Oceans Aquarium ever since the facility first opened its doors in 1995 and for the past 17 years, I &J has helped to provide a daily meal to at least 3 000 animals – from the most delicate reef fish to the sharks and other large predators housed by the aquarium.

I &J’s monthly fish donation amounts to about two tons of pilchards, hake, squid and mackerel.

In recognition of I &J’s long-standing support of the Two Oceans Aquarium, a massive two million litre circular tank is named “the I &J Predator Exhibit”. Feeding time at this exhibit is one of the highlights of a visit to the Two Oceans Aquarium.

In addition to the monthly supply of fish food, I&J has extended their Two Oceans Aquarium support by sponsoring the new I&J Young Biologist course which will run at the Aquarium in March 2013. The company also sponsors the children’s party venue at Shoreline Café, official restaurant of the Two Oceans Aquarium. Here I&J’s lovable “Marine Heroes” are used to make children’s parties fun, with an environmental education slant.

I &J’s sponsorship of the Two Oceans Aquarium is a logical choice for the fishing company. I &J is making an important contribution towards the sustainable management of fisheries through its advanced policies and partnerships. At the same time, the Two Oceans Aquarium has established a remarkable reputation as a high quality tourist attraction and a centre of marine

biological research and conservation. It plays a key role by raising awareness of the marine environment, marine resources, and the pressing need to use and manage marine ecosystems wisely, with long-term commitment.

The synergies between I &J and the Two Oceans Aquarium are obvious and I &J is proud to be associated with this world class facility.

I&J to sponsor uShaka attractionsIn April 2012, I &J entered into a sponsorship agreement with uShaka Marine World, one of the key tourist attractions in Durban and a strong supporter of marine education and conservation programs.

In terms of the sponsorship agreement, I &J is the official sponsor of uShaka’s Snorkel Lagoon and Ocean Walker attractions. At the I &J Snorkel Lagoon, visitors can put on a mask and snorkel and experience the wonder of the marine environment up close, in a totally safe environment.

The Ocean Walker is a novel attraction that allows visitors to uShaka Marine World to walk slowly along the floor of the Open Ocean exhibit as the fish, rays and sand sharks glide gently around the tank, unperturbed by the human presence.

uShaka Marine World is a wonderful platform from which to promote I &J’s sustainable seafood products and the company is delighted to have secured this sponsorship agreement.

Both the I &J Snorkel Lagoon and the Ocean Walker attractions are being re-branded to reflect the colours and identity of I &J. I &J is also acknowledged as a key sponsor on the website of uShaka Marine World: www.ushakamarineworld.co.za

I&J has been a trusted name in quality for over 100 years.

FUTURE BEREAPROJECT BACKGROUND

The Berea Urban Core Extension Project encom-passes the Berea North and Berea South areas and covers an area of approximately 2085ha. The Berea North area contains a substantially higher residential density than the Berea South Area. As the terms of reference indicates, the study area is considered to be one of Durban’s oldest residential suburbs. The area boasts architectural significant and valuable buildings, as well as tree lined streets, combined with a set of vibrant mixed communities. However modern and emerging life-style trends, coupled with market forces, hasled to changes within this area, and the penetration of other uses challenges the existing scheme and current infra-structure.This project was born out of the need to a prepare a Functional Area Plan for the Berea Study area and Conceptual Precinct Plans for Florida Road and Davenport Road. The second phase of the project requires the development of a vision for the area through which a Functional Area Plan can be achieved. The vision was developed as a result of a detailed status quo assessment of the broader Berea area as well as the two identified precinct – Davenport and Florida Road, the summary of which can be found in sec-tion two of this report. The first stage of the situational analysis involved identifying the nature of the Berea. This stage involves the formulation of a ‘Broad Vision’ for

the study area. This requires, amongst other things, the application of Performance measures, distilling a structure for the Berea and responding to the uniqueness and challenges identified in the previ-ous section. Thereafter, following the vision a spatial concept will be developed for the study area. Subsequently this broad Vision and Concept will be subject to the reality constraints of Zoning, existing land-use, and development trends. Once the vision and concept has been developed, this will then be translated into a Functional Area Plan (FAP). The FAP will outline the intent of the Vision and its implications for translation into a Scheme. In this sense, the FAP will indicate the indicative appropriate zones for consideration in future Scheme revisions and amendments.

THE OBJECTIVES OF THE BEREA FAP (Functional Area Plan)

The implicit Objectives for the Functional Area Plan are: - To prepare a Land Use vision for the Project area as a whole; - To promote an integrated Plan; - Protect and maintain the existing ‘environment’ i.e. to maintain and reinforce the existing character of the different Neighbourhoods, Districts and Corridors; - To accommodate non-residential land uses ap-propriate for the role of the Berea;

- To promote appropri-ate land use Nodes and Activity precincts; - To prepare a Land Use Framework which sets the basis for the prepara-tion of a Scheme; - To identify a set of future actions includ-ing areas /issues to be researched, precincts that might require future urban design interventions, projects for immediate imple-mentation. The expected outcomes provided in the Brief, together with the challenges outlined represent a diverse set of needs covering differing sectors and scales.

IMPLEMENTATION PLAN

The purpose of the Im-plementation Framework is the identification of the different types of planning interventions, primarily those that need to address pressures for change in terms of the requirement to redress the need for ‘improve-ment’; and additional or new aspects; and those

that are, or could be, strategic catalysts for initiat-ing change and a response from the private sector. The following table sets up the framework for the implementation plant, which will be detailed in the forthcoming phase of the project.

THE APPROACH

The following outlines some of the develop-ment approaches underlying the Implementation Framework: i.Responding to Development pressures This requires addressing areas subject to both growth and change. It also means being mindful of the Vision and the Land Use Framework that identifies the unique nature of the different components of the area. Promoting a Sustainable development sequence This requires facilitating a develop-ment process which is based on a geographical, economic and servicing logic which improves the living conditions of the local residents, contributing to maintaining a variety of living options within the Berea and which maintains the specific character of the various parts of the Berea ii.Retaining the unique character of the area This requires promoting the maintenance, rehabili-tation, protection and management of the different parts of the Berea such as to integrate the various parts, especially the various Mixed-Use. iii.Improving living conditions This requires supporting the provision of adequate and appropri-ate physical and social services, local economic development and the maintenance of the natural environment. iv.Ensuring sustainable development, This includes environmental as well as economic, social, institutional etc sustainability. v.Supporting appropriate local economic development This requires facilitating the creation of an appropriate local economy linked into the wider metropolitan area by recognizing City-wide, Berea-wide and local Neighbourhood systems and opportunities., while still improving local living conditions. vi.Creating development management capacity This requires establishing capacities and capabili-ties at the Municipal local level, allowing for the promotion and management of the appropriate development of the area; as well as creating a local understanding and involvement in the development process. vii.Ensuring availability of appropriate physical and social services This requires guiding develop-ment such as to enable the municipality and other service providers to establish adequate physical and social support services. viii.Positively integrating the natural into the built environment This requires maintaining the unique character of the various components of the Berea, the integration of the natural environment as a positive part of the built environment so that it becomes an essential development approach to be appropriately promoted and managed.

recognised for effective water management The City of Cape Town became the first ever recipient of the Southern African Development Community (SADC) water demand management (WDM) award – which recognises the achievements of organisations that have worked towards improving understanding, awareness and implementation of WDM measures.

Green Goal takes goldThe 2010 FIFA World Cup™ Host City Cape Town Green Goal programme won the International Olympic Committee (IOC) Sport and Environment award. The Cape Town 2010 Green Goal programme was selected from among 43 projects from 34 countries.

Energy consumption reduced by 10,3% A key environmental sustainability indicator for the City is its ability to reduce electricity consumption below projected unconstrained electricity consumption figures. During the 2010/11 financial year, the City exceeded its target in this regard.

Promoting life in the “slower lane”The first walking and cycling lanes of the new MyCiTi transport system were launched as part of the City’s commitment to promoting greener and healthier public transport.

Giving Capetonians access to waterThe City set itself a target of installing 200 water access points (taps) in informal settlements during the 2010/11 year. This target was significantly exceeded, with 511 taps installed.

13 145JOB OPPORTUNITIES CREATED

reduced the percentage unaccounted-for water from 26,6% to 22,2%

This significant improvement on previous efforts is well ahead of the target of 22,5%, and demonstrates the effectiveness of the City’s water balance and loss reduction strategy.

Founded in 1957 and active in 50 countries, ICSID has awarded the World Design Capital designation three times – to Torino, Italy (2008); Seoul, South Korea (2010) and Helsinki, Finland (2012).

The World Design Capital title is awarded in advance, allowing winning cities sufficient time to plan, develop and promote a year-long programme of World Design Capital-themed events for their designated year.

WHO IS CO-ORDINATING CAPE TOWN’S WORLD DESIGN CAPITAL 2014 PRO-GRAMME?

The City of Cape Town is in the process of set-ting up the necessary structures and positions to ensure the year-long World Design Capital 2014 programme lives up to our bid promise. Already, a vital network of partners from local and provincial government, the creative industries, academia and the media, as well as local design leaders and citizens from all walks of life, have pledged their support.

WHY DID CAPE TOWN BID FOR WORLD DESIGN CAPITAL 2014?

Cape Town’s World Design Capital 2014 bid concept “Live Design. Transform Life” focused strongly on socially responsive design. Our bid rec-ognised and mobilised Cape Town’s considerable design resources towards addressing the legacies of our city’s apartheid past.

It is aimed specifically at dealing with the vast imbalances that exist in our society and was organ-ised into three broad themes: rebuild Cape Town through community cohesion; reconnect Cape Town through infrastructural enhancement; and reposition Cape Town for the knowledge economy.

The global landscape has changed irrevocably in recent years. Devastating economic and natural disasters have had a sobering effect on all aspects of life, including design. There is a growing need for practical design thinking, participatory methods and people-centred solutions to real problems. In

this context, Cape Town has much to inspire the world. Ours was – and is – a proudly African bid, with the ultimate goal of achieving a sustainable, inclusive and more liveable African city, rooted in the strengths of our people and communities – to “Live Design. Transform Life.”

CAPE TOWN’S DESIGN LEGACY

The year 2014 represents a significant milestone for Cape Town and South Africa, marking 20 years since we embraced freedom in 1994. For this reason, 2014 will be a momentous year, as we take stock of the challenges and gains of our transforma-tion, and celebrate the achievements of the past two decades, both as a city and as a country.

Since the advent of democracy in 1994, Cape Town has undergone a process of reconstructing and re-connecting a city that had been physically, socially, economically, culturally and emotionally divided for many decades.

As part of this city-led process of reunification and transformation, a large number of public and private programmes and projects have, since 1994, been geared towards delivering the type of innova-tive thinking, entrepreneurial spirit and successful implementation that will ultimately transcend boundaries to reconnect Cape Town in structure and spirit, for the benefit of all citizens.

In 2010, we proved that we as a city (and a country) are able to compete on a world stage, hosting one of the most successful World Cups in recent years and the first on African soil.

The World Cup has provided Cape Town with the backbone of significant infrastructural enhance-ments and a renewed sense of civic pride. Our aim was to build on this legacy through our World Design Capital 2014 bid, to celebrate our successes and showcase them on a world stage.

CAPE TOWN’S DESIGN VISION

Cape Town will use the World Design Capital 2014 opportunity to transform our city into one of the most inclusive, sustainable, liveable and productive on the African continent.

By harnessing the problem-solving powersof design and designers, and the creativity and resourcefulness of communities across our city, we will find innovative solutions to our most pressing on-the-ground challenges.

We will identify, nurture and promote projects that offer tangible evidence of how design can improve lives, bridge historic divides, reconnect our city in structure and in spirit, rebuild social and economic inclusion, and reposition Cape Town for a truly sus-tainable future within our uniquely South African and African context.

Through World Design Capital 2014 we will strengthen partnerships throughout our city – between government, business, NGO’s, academia, designers and communities.Working together, we will ensure that design is

understood as a key driver of sustainable social and economic development; that design is embed-ded in city development processes; that design skills and excellence are developed in Cape Town, South Africa and the continent; and that citizens are empowered to embrace design as a tool for transformation.

As the first developing nation city to be awarded World Design Capital 2014, we will use the desig-nation as a catalyst for collaboration, knowledge sharing and networking across the African conti-nent, and with other developing nation cities.

Our World Design Capital 2014 events will be leveraged to celebrate and showcase the tangible successes and transformative vision that earned Cape Town the designation, and to share our chal-lenges and lessons more widely.

Globally, Cape Town will gain a reputation as a leading producer of creative design solutions to the complex challenges of our time – an African city of design-led innovation and inspiration.

THE BID BOOK

REBUILDING COMMUNITIES: CASE STUDY 1

How does a city like Cape Town, once torn apart by the legacies of colonialism and apartheid, and still in the relative infancy of a new democracy, approach its vastly different peoples with a view to inclusivity, reconnection and creating a city for all? First and foremost, it must rebuild its communities. This case study looks at three examples of how rebuilding is taking place in low-income communi-ties in particular, and how we are using design to alleviate the problems around social housing.

RECONNECTING INFRASTRUCTURE: CASE STUDY 2

Apartheid not only caused ideological disconnects in the City of Cape Town, it also disconnected entire communities in terms of the supply of in-frastructure and services, and in turn disconnected them from employment opportunities and other resources. In the second of our case study sections, we outline three projects that illustrate just how the “reconnection” is starting to take place – reconnect-ing people to the places they must have access to in order to experience economic opportunities and quality of life.

REPOSITIONING FOR THE FUTURE: CASE STUDY 3

Sustainability, densification and the knowledge

economy are all key phrases in Cape Town’s plans for the future, not only in terms of developing its local skills base and economy, but also in terms of becoming a significant contributor to and player in the international landscape. Part of the City of Cape Town’s vision is to become “… one of the greatest cities in the world to live, work, invest and discover.” This final case study considers diverse ways people are starting to realise this vision – from innovative technologies developed in Cape Town and a design showcase to rival the best in the world, to the development of a model for a sustain-able future.
