Plans & approvals in Sasolburg: local notes
Metsimaholo Local Municipality approves plans for Sasolburg, Zamdela, Deneysville and Oranjeville. Stands close to the Vaal River or the dam can sit inside flood lines, and those near the industrial area may face zoning buffers, so a site plan checked against the town planning scheme saves trouble. Fire rules under SANS 10400-T apply to thatched dam-shore cottages, and your draughtsperson will advise on distances.
Homes and buildings in Sasolburg
Sasolburg was laid out in the 1950s as a company town beside the Sasol works, and its Garden City streets in Sasolburg proper, Noordwyk and Fluorspar Park still carry tidy 1960s brick houses with generous gardens. Vaalpark is the newer suburb, with a golf and country feel and a growing number of double storey houses toward the Vaal Dam. Zamdela is the large township, where families extend RDP and formal houses and add backyard rooms. Weekend homes at Deneysville and Oranjeville on the dam shore ask for different drawings again. Draughtspersons are based in town and also serve the Vaal Triangle.
