CURRENT CONJUNCTURE

Page 16: HUMAN SETTLEMENTS PLANNING Presentation to Human Settlements Portfolio Committee 9 June 2009.

Multi-Year Hsg Dev. Plans (MHDPs)Multi-Year Hsg Dev. Plans (MHDPs)

1. Provinces clear about their visions, missions, values, legislative and policy mandates, housing demand and need, housing strategic issues departmental policies, priorities and strategic goals.

2. However, less so, in respect of integration & alignment across the national, provincial and municipal spheres (sectorally).

3. Variance, in terms of alignment between provincial and local plans:a. Free State, N/Cape, W/Cape & KZN highlight lack of alignment

between IDP housing chapters & Multi-Year Housing Dev. Plan, as a risk.

b. Gauteng highlights the IDP and MHDP as part of the core informants to central planning.

Page 17: HUMAN SETTLEMENTS PLANNING Presentation to Human Settlements Portfolio Committee 9 June 2009.

Hsg Chapters of IDPsHsg Chapters of IDPsOperational:1. District/Local Municipalities

a. Lack of understanding around significance of developing the Housing Sector Plans, & limited understanding of its relations to IDPs.

b. Limited evidence of Spatial Development Plans (SDFs), which is key for planning, implementation and decision-making.

2. Metro’sa. Use of housing sector plans in local planning

processes is well understood. The challenge is lack of capacity and strategic direction to implement housing sector plans, & housing delivery in general.

Page 18: HUMAN SETTLEMENTS PLANNING Presentation to Human Settlements Portfolio Committee 9 June 2009.

Hsg Chapters of IDPsHsg Chapters of IDPsSubstantive:

1. Impact of urbanization, migration & proliferation of informal settlements places pressure on housing development and management of open space.

2. Maintenance & operation of bulk & internal infrastructure is problematic especially in informal settlements.

3. Grants such MIG do not cater for shortfall in operating expenses and maintenance of existing infrastructure.

Page 19: HUMAN SETTLEMENTS PLANNING Presentation to Human Settlements Portfolio Committee 9 June 2009.

Human Settlements Plng:Human Settlements Plng:Current ConjunctureCurrent Conjuncture

Overall:• Lack of alignment of provincial multi-year

housing delivery plans with approved IDPs;• Non-alignment of financial streams of housing

and social facilities and infrastructure;• Lack of comprehensive planning within IDPs

that would form the basis for housing development initiatives; and

• Lack of meaningful Prov. & National Housing Development Plans; that should form basis for accurate targeting and budget allocations.

Human Settlements Plng:Human Settlements Plng:Way ForwardWay Forward

1. Work towards having practical documents that can be used as reference planning documents for provinces,

2. There is need to work towards achievement of MHDPs that are aligned with the national and provincial and municipal priorities.

3. The MHDP needs to present a reference to operational and implementation issues and risks.

4. Need for urgent sector support and proactive engagement with provinces, municipalities and service providers on the development of municipal sector plans;
