What is Spatial Planning?
Spatial planning is the process of organising how land and resources are used to guide the growth and development of a town or region in a sustainable and coordinated way. It ensures that growth happens in the right places, at the right time, and in ways that benefit all members of the community.
At its heart, spatial planning takes a holistic and systematic approach, looking at how different areas and spaces interact and work together. It helps us understand the relationships between places, such as:
- How Stellenbosch town interacts with nearby municipalities like Cape Town or Drakenstein.
- How different areas within Stellenbosch’s jurisdiction, like Franschhoek, Klapmuts, and Stellenbosch town itself, influence and connect with one another.
By focusing on these interactions, spatial planning ensures that growth across the Municipality happens in a way that strengthens connections, supports communities, and promotes balanced development between urban and rural areas.
Tools like the Spatial Development Framework (SDF) help guide this process by providing a long-term vision and strategy for development. The SDF aligns with the broader priorities and objectives of the Integrated Development Plan (IDP) to ensure that public investment and resources are directed to the areas where they are most needed.
Spatial planning is particularly important in South Africa’s context, where it plays a key role in addressing historical inequalities, creating inclusive communities, and ensuring fair access to resources and opportunities for everyone.
