ULUNDI MUNICIPALITY REVIEW OF THE INTEGRATED DEVELOPMENT PLAN FOR THE 2012 / 2013 FINANCIAL YEAR SITUATIONAL ANALYSIS SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT 52
SOCIAL AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT ANALYSIS HOUSING Municipal Housing Demand The Ulundi Municipality developed its Municipal Housing Sector Plan in April 2006; this Plan was reviewed and updated in May 2008. According to the information generated by the Community Survey in 2007, 61.6% of the households within the Municipality reside in a traditional dwelling, a hut or a structure made of traditional materials while only 27.7% of households within the Municipality reside in a house or brick structure on a separate stand or yard. The Municipal Housing Sector Plan defines housing demand within the Municipality as the number of households requiring formal housing; it is therefore the intention that formal housing is to replace traditional housing which in turn provides a clear indication of the extent of the housing backlog that needs to be addressed. Linking Housing Provision with the IDP In the past, the approach followed to addressing the housing backlog was to adopt a strategy of chasing numbers – a mass housing approach. Through this approach, houses were built everywhere where land could be acquired cheaply thereby perpetuating urban sprawl and segregated development areas. Houses were built further from job opportunities and social amenities, undermining economic viability and environmental sustainability. Further, the quality of houses was compromised due to poor workmanship and the lack of integrated quality control approaches. In its Municipal Housing Sector Plan the Municipality developed a strategy to address the housing backlog that is premised on the promotion of sustainable development. This strategy aligns with the policy approach of the Provincial Department of Human Settlement, which has responsibility for exercising oversight of and providing funding for housing development projects within the Municipality. What this means is that housing projects are not stand alone developments but need to inform and be informed by other developments within the Municipality such as access to health, education, community, and transport facilities. Other key issues relating to the development of housing reflected in the IDP relate to availability of land for housing development, the provision of services on proposed housing development sites and accessing funds to develop the project. The greatest need for housing is within the town of Ulundi and its peri-urban areas as well as the emerging settlements of Mpungamhlope, Ceza, Nqulwane, Babanango and Mahlabathini; the current urban and rural housing projects – completed, in progress and planned – reflect the priority of providing housing in these areas. 53
