The municipality received a conditional approval to build 2 000 units during 2008. The project was subsequently divided into four phases. The bulk infrastructure has been completed, and additional sites will be serviced by March 2010. Show houses were constructed. The closing date for submission of tenders in respect to the construction of top structures for 134 units in phase 1 was 1 February 2010. The municipality faced considerable pressure from the community to complete construction of the top structures. The municipality was, however, not in a position to complete this due to budgetary constraints, and indicated that it had already spent more than the funding allocated for the project.
