Update January 29: our friends of soplett have a great coverage on the “coming together” project; read especially this comment of Iain.
The coming months we’ll be covering extensively the (master)plans of the Bitou municipalitywhich will completely upgrade Plettenberg bay. The project has been named “Coming Together” and has as ambition to do something about the apartheid-style town planning problem. More than 56 projects are involved and phase 1 involves a budget of R66 million.
The full presentation can be found here: Plettenberg Bay Coming Together presentation.
Rumours are the Middle Eastern parties are eying to take (massive) stakes in Plettenberg property. However, acting municipal manager Carl Mattheus didn’t go into that on a public hearing last December.
