REQUEST FOR WRITTEN COMMENTS RANDBURG URBAN DEVELOPMENT

FRAMEWORK

The Department of Development Planning: City Transformation (DP), through the

Johannesburg Development Agency (JDA), have appointed a specialist team
comprising of Urban Designers, IYER CC, for the Review of the Randburg CBD
Urban Development Framework (UDF).

The need for such a review stems from the outdatedness of existing Spatial Policies
and the changing character and role of Randburg in relation to the City of Joburg as
a whole.

An Urban Development Framework consists of a number of sections / chapters that

each require significant consultation. The project team have held Open Days and
focus group meetings for input on key priorities for the Randburg CBD.

These inputs have been incorporated into the Draft UDF. This review seeks to
ensure sufficient and meaningful stakeholder engagement and therefore your inputs
and comments on the Draft Randburg CBD UDF are herewith kindly requested.
