Formal Protections HPOZ Municipal Planning By-Law

The City of Cape Town, in order to fulfil its obligation to sustainable development, must promote economic and social development, as well as promoting the conservation and protection of the natural and cultural environment. The City of Cape Town is a competent local authority in terms of the NHRA. The identification and management of Grade III heritage resources are the responsibility of the competent local authority.The Municipal Planning By-Law (2015) (MPBL) was enacted by the City of Cape Town from 1 July 2015 and replaced 2013 Cape Town Zoning Scheme. Included in this By-Law is the concept of overlay zonings. The overlay zoning provides a mechanism to designate either city-wide or localised development management rules to deal with specific concerns, over and above the provisions of a base zoning. One such overlay zone is the Heritage Protection Overlay (HPO). The Heritage Protection Overlay within the DMS is the mechanism for the protection of heritage places and areas that are considered conservation worthy in terms of the City’s heritage strategies and the National Heritage Resources Act (Act 25 of 1999) (NHRA). Schedule 3, Division II Item 18 states: “All Heritage Protection Overlay Zones as published in the Provincial Gazette are deemed to be heritage areas in accordance with the NHRA.” All spatial layers are served live from internal systems, an item's "Last Updated" or "Publish Date" refers to the Metadata only.开普敦市为履行可持续发展义务，需推动经济社会发展，同时促进自然与文化环境的保护与保育。依据《国家遗产资源法》（National Heritage Resources Act, NHRA），开普敦市属于合格的地方主管当局。三级遗产资源（Grade III heritage resources）的识别与管理工作，由该主管地方当局负责。开普敦市于2015年7月1日颁布《2015年城市规划附例》（Municipal Planning By-Law 2015, MPBL），该附例取代了2013年《开普敦分区规划方案》。其中纳入了叠加分区（overlay zonings）的概念：叠加分区作为一种机制，可在基础分区的既有条款之外，制定全市范围或局部的开发管理规则，以应对特定管理需求。遗产保护叠加区（Heritage Protection Overlay, HPO）即为这类叠加分区之一。本数据管理系统（DMS）内的遗产保护叠加区，是依据开普敦市遗产战略及《1999年第25号国家遗产资源法》（NHRA），对具有保护价值的遗产场所与区域实施保护的机制。附表3第二分部第18条明确规定：“所有在省宪报中公布的遗产保护叠加分区，依据NHRA均被视为遗产区域。”所有空间图层均从内部系统实时提供服务，某一数据项的“最后更新时间”或“发布日期”仅针对其元数据（Metadata）而言。
