City of Cape Town considers affordable housing vision followed by more engagements and public participation of great first leg of Woodstock Hospital.

Member of the Mayoral Committee for Human Settlements – Councillor Carl Pophaim released a statement and said that they have concluded the first leg of the public participation period for intended mixed income and affordable housing development at the Woodstock Hospital site.

According to Pophaim it is a phase of engagement that involved statutory-required written inputs and are being collated at the moment.

He cleared that, as a Mayoral Committee Member, Carl will drive further public engagement campaign with the relevant stakeholders including Woodstock Hospital occupants as well as the broader community groupings, beginning later in February.

The Human Settlements team has been clear about the intention to garner meaningful, feasible and constructive input on the proposed vision for the site. The project includes the development of affordable housing opportunities for qualifying the residents.

Moreover, the statutory written phase of the public participation period was conducted for over four months in total, which is a considerable period for input that exceeds the statutory required for 30 days.

All feasible options will be assessed in terms of the applicable legislation and Council policy. As he is excited by the prospect of further robust engagement around the affordable housing agenda of the City of Cape Town.

City of Cape Town has released land parcels in last two years through the flagship priority land release programme that offered more than 4000 residential opportunities that are now available for affordable development and have a portfolio of approximately 5000 constructed and completed Social Housing units in well-located areas across the metro.

MMC of Human Settlements – Councillor Carl Pophaim mentioned that over 12,000 opportunities for affordable rental housing pipeline were centred across Cape Town. The team firmly believes that the plans for the site considers mixed income and affordable housing development that will proved to be a game-changer, and will bring the much-needed affordable housing and an economic boost to the area.

Furthermore, the total extent of the property valued at approximately R87 million that included a potential residential development yield of approx. 500 units, comprising of open market and social housing, that will be disposed of subject to the provision of affordable housing, following the due process.

The engagements with the existing occupants of the Woodstock Hospital site will continue and the point of departure will consider all the policies that will be upheld and will held successful participation in the social housing agenda depending on the socio-economic profile of the households.

City of cape Town engaged the households on the available options to them, in order to determine the appropriate response for each household in terms of Council Policy and Legislation.

Affordable housing plan is a challenging arena in general. It is often characterised by the following points, such as:

  • Rapidly diminishing national government funding for social housing.
  • Unlawful occupation, such as the case with the Woodstock Hospital Site and how to deliver opportunities to qualify beneficiaries in terms of Council and National Legislation.
  • Very cumbersome and heavily legislated environment often taking years to bring a project to fruition.
  • Community resistance to the roll out of affordable housing projects or the rifle ‘not-in-my-backyard’ phenomenon that often sees communities rejecting these projects outright despite the aesthetically pleasing nature of the developments and the known economic boost, that it brings to neighbourhoods.
  • Diminishing financial health of social housing institutions.
  • Lack of private sector, market and gap housing players.
  • Competing requirements for land that is well-located.
  • also, Land in and near urban centres in Cape Town especially is very expensive and attracting the right partners to develop it, even with the city discounts, which is a great challenge.
