Rectification of phase 1 was completed but Duncan Village was not been completed due to a funding shortfall. Some contractors also added to the challenges affecting development as they encountered cash flow problems. The involvement of the CSIR had played a tremendous role in providing foundations. The Housing Development Agency was assisting the municipality with the identification of land. However, there were challenges with land owned by Department of Public Works.
