Cape Town City does not have everyones interests at heart ---

[The City’s / Proponents' Perspective](https://dearsouthafrica.co.za/mowbray-golf-course/comments/#1770892117175-dfc38055-c8382881-c4081842-a34f)

The City maintains that the redevelopment process is entirely “procedurally sound”
following the adoption of Council Resolution C39/05/26 on 27 May 2026. Proponents
argue that the draft concept represents a vital step toward spatial justice, turning
an exclusive recreational area into a vibrant, high-density precinct with 8,600 
homes (minimum 30% social housing). They assert that technical studies, transit 
coordination, and environmental impact assessments will be dealt with thoroughly
in the subsequent legislative phases after the land disposal principle is approved.

[The Community’s / Opponents' Perspective](https://dearsouthafrica.co.za/mowbray-golf-course/comments/#1770892117205-3c7c32e1-ce3d2881-c4081842-a34f)

Opponents argue that the City is executing an administrative “bait-and-switch.” 
Asking the public to approve an irreversible public asset disposal while keeping
essential technical studies (valuations, sewer metrics, and TIAs) hidden behind 
PAIA walls violates the basic tenets of fair administrative action under PAJA. Furthermore,
the revelation that PRASA has zero alignment with the City’s transit claims proves
that the project’s planning is prematurely optimised. The community insists that
the public participation process must be halted and restarted only when all baseline
evidence is public and the legal authorisations are genuinely transparent.
