The landmark land claim resolution at Blythedale Coastal Resort will now provide the catalyst for immense economic growth and social upliftment on the North Coast of Kwazulu Natal and it a major victory for all the parties involved including the claimants, stakeholders, land owners, government and present and future purchasers.
Speaking of the importance of the partnership between communities, Government and the Private Sector, the Minister of Housing, Lindiwe Sisulu said the resort was a model of what is possible when all stakeholders work together to achieve one vision.
"Today we celebrate a great private sector, community and Government partnership, the eLan Group was among the first private developers to believe in the Government housing plan, Breaking New Ground Plan (BNG) which lays a foundation for inclusionary housing in which the poor can also enjoy social and economic amenities as the rich. We are happy that the resolution of the land claim has included the community and they are benefiting from economic opportunities during the implementation of the project and are also resident in the resort.
Since rezoning was obtained two years ago, the Blythedale Coastal Resort professional team has met on a fortnightly basis to prepare for the resolution of the land claim and we are now fully poised to break ground and to fast-track the development infrastructure.
