ERADICATION OF INFORMAL SETTLEMENTS- incl. Bucket Eradication -

14

METHODOLOGY

• Elimination of informal settlements.

• Elimination of buckets.• Reduction of flooding • Provision of serviced sites:

– Top structures– Water & Sanitation connections– Waste collection – Basic Roads– Public transport routes– Basic stormwater control– Electrical services

15

PLANS TO ERADICATE INFORMAL SETTLEMENTS

Key sector plans:• Informal Settlements Upgrading Plan.• 7-Year Housing Plan (2009 – 2016).• Relocation Plan.• Land asset management and control.• Social Housing Strategy.• Spatial Development Framework and Local

Spatial Development Framework preparation.• NMBM Housing/Rental Strategy with HDA.• Bucket Eradication Strategy & Business Plan• Services Master Plans

16

BUCKET ERADICATION• Bucket eradication programme (BEP) strategy:

– Integrated approach through the housing delivery programme as approved by NMBM Council.

– Elimination of informal settlements by 2016.– Construction of a house = serviced site (W&S

etc).• BEP = R4 394 m (in terms of business plan submitted

to Province and National) – over approx. 5-year period:– Top structure subsidy = R2 357 m – approx.

R500 million required per annum.– Services (internal, bulk & treatment) = R2 037 m17

ALIGNMENT WITH HSDG

• The Municipality prepares serviced sites (USDG) in advance of applying for project approval for house construction.

• There is a continuous process of three phases which comprises:– Serviced sites– Project application– House construction

• The above processes are monitored through a readiness matrix. 18

1919

ALIGNMENT WITH HSDG …cont.

PROVINCIAL & MUNICIPAL CO-ORDINATION

• Meetings are held monthly to discuss HSDG project management.

• Reporting being extended to include USDG matters such as:– the readiness matrix, – alignment, – communication issues, – expenditure and deliverables, etc. 20

ERADICATION OF INFORMAL SETTLEMENTS

- Constraints -

21

22

BUCKET ERADICATION CONSTRAINTS

• Awaiting response from Department of Human Settlements for the Metro Business Plan on Sanitation programme.

• Current status was raised at the Ministerial Sanitation Task Team meeting held on 7 June 2012.

• USDG allocations inadequate to meet the demands of the municipal programme.

23

BUCKET ERADICATION CONSTRAINTS

• NMBM strategy for bucket eradication is based on the delivery of an integrated human settlement whereby a constructed house will have dignified sanitation for the beneficiary.

• NMBM has considered various sanitation options to eradicate buckets in informal settlements which led to the proposal to construct communal toilet blocks.– As a result of the high cost, the business plan was

developed for an integrated approach to bucket eradication.

23

24

BUCKET ERADICATION CONSTRAINTS• Based on the current situation, the NMBM will

have to consider an interim position to eradicate buckets while human settlements are being established.

• Therefore, NMBM will have to revisit its position with regard to an interim communal block sanitation and develop a business plan to support the funding of this approach to the Provincial/ National Sanitation Programme Managers.

• NMBM will allocate a portion of USDG funding to implement localised alternative sanitation options for informal settlements.

25

CONCLUSIONThe delivery of an Integrated Human Settlement

is key in addressing all service delivery needs,BUT

the allocated funding streams must speak directly to this delivery mechanism.

The Municipality is committed to the development of integrated sustainable human settlements in

terms of the USDG / HSDG.
