TERMS OF REFERENCE

1. INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND
As the official implementing agent of sustainable human settlements in the Free State Province, through
government-wide human settlements programme, the Free State Department of Human Settlements
(FSHS) is funding several projects in various municipalities through the Human Settlements
Development Grant (HSDG) and Informal Settlements Upgrading Partnership Grant (ISUPG). The
department promotes sustainable communities amongst others and ensures the availability of well-
located land for the development of human settlements. It further assists by upgrading informal
settlements either through in-situ upgrading or relocation, to a new development establishment of new
mixed development areas and built-up top structures for qualifying beneficiaries or end users.
The Department is committed to its cause to address the problems that are related to tenure rights and
the provision of adequate services for the people of the Free State, especially those living in the informal
settlement areas as well as the other income groups.
As part of the Upgrading Informal Settlements Programme (UISP) and creating an enabling
environment for municipalities to address human settlements challenges, the FSHS has in collaboration
with municipalities, identified settlements that need urgent attention and these were drawn from the
existing Provincial Informal Settlements Upgrading Register (PISUR) which is reviewed and updated
on an ongoing basis.
The Department has also further identified areas in a few municipalities that need to be developed as
part of forward planning to cater for the growing need for serviced sites coupled with the need to
circumvent the evolvement of informal settlements. The identified projects for the 2023/24 Financial
Year are as outlined below.
2. IDENTIFIED PROJECTS
The following areas were identified for township establishment projects during the 2023/24 financial
year:
- RE/ Memel Townlands 75 and RE/ Mooipan (Foster Informal Settlement), Phumelela Local
Municipality
RE/ Memel Townlands 75 and RE/ Mooipan (Foster Informal Settlement), is situated in Phumelela
Local Municipality. The municipality has identified Remainder of Memel Townlands 75 and Remainder
of Mooipan next to town where these people can be relocated. The development is going to be on a
green field and the beneficiaries will be relocated to this land once the township establishment process
has been completed. It is estimated that the settlement will accommodate 250 households.
- RE/104 Edenburg (Edenhoogte Informal Settlement), Kopanong Local Municipality
The RE/104 Edenburg (Edenhoogte Informal Settlement), is situated in Kopanong Local Municipality.
The settlement has about 220 estimated households to be relocated and accommodated once the area
has been formalised.
- RE/291 Reddersburg (Mokwai Moletsane Informal Settlement), Kopanong Local
Municipality
RE/291 Reddersburg (Mokwai Moletsane Informal Settlement), Kopanong Local Municipality is

situated in Kopanong Local Municipality. The settlement has to be formalized in-situ to
accommodate the households staying in the area. There are about 197 estimated households.
- Remainder of Farm Villiers 492, Mafube Local Municipality
There is generally shortage of serviced sites in Villiers, a challenge which has resulted in illegal
land crabbings. The municipality has availed the remaining extent of Farm Villiers 492 for township
establishment which will cater for the future needs. The land belongs to the municipality and is
15.34 hectares in extent. This is a greenfield development.
