Lusanda Bill
14 April 2011
The City of Cape Town’s 15 proposed nature reserves has been given the thumbs up by the public.
City of Cape Town biodiversity co-ordinator Cliff Dorse said the city would now submit these proposals to the Western Cape MEC for local government, environmental affairs and development planning for proclamation.
Brian Watkyns city's planning and environment portfolio committee chairperson says many of the sites were proclaimed Local Authority Nature Reserves under the Nature Conservation Ordinance.
He added that others fell under the Environmental Conservation Act and some had no official conservation status at all.
