1.0 INTRODUCTION

1.1 The purpose for the architectural language and landscaping guidelines is to create a harmonious

built environment that will be sympathetic to the existing natural beauty of the Hilltop PrivateEstate, Port Zimbali Township.

1.2 The Architectural Design and Landscape Review Committee (Design Review Committee)comprising of two registered professional architects, an professional environmentalist whenrequired, a professional registered engineer when required, and a representative from the Kwa

Dukuza Local Authority has, therefore, drawn up the following broad guidelines to assist allproperty owners with the preparation of their plans. Each submission will be assessed on its

merits and information provided in the overall context of the Hilltop Private Estate and the PortZimbali Town Planning Scheme.

1.3 For this purpose the Hilltop Private Estate Management Association (HPEMA) constitution

requires all property owners to submit building plans and landscaping proposals, including allalterations and or amendments, for approval, prior to them being submitted to the Kwa Dukuza

Local Authority.1.4 Only Professional Architects registered with the South African Council of Architects (SACA) and

the South African Council for the Architectural Practice (SACAP) may submit drawings for

development within Hilltop Private Estate, and all Engineers must be registered with the S.A.Institute of Civil Engineers (SAICE).

1.5 Architects commissioned to do work in Hilltop Private Estate must also be appointed as thePrincipal Agent of the project commissioned to for.

2.0 BACKGROUND TO GUIDELINES

2.1 The Hilltop Private Estate forms part of Port Zimbali and shares a unified common architectural

theme with the Zimbali Golf Estate through the use of similar materials, colours, textures and adominant roof theme.

2.2 Analysis of the site, the coastal dune forest, proximity to the sea, prevailing winds and the

objective to ensure a sense of harmony within the Estate have identified the following designcriteria:

Dominance of nature and the re-establishment of the Coastal Forest

Integrated internal and external living spaces

Raised verandahs, decks and terraces

Limited range of natural materials

Selected colour range ( which is on the colour chart in the Estate Management office). The

colour palette can be down loaded from our web site as well. Dominant roof form with large overhangs and top storey to be accommodated in the roof

space

Chimneys and/or dormers

Large areas of glazing

Expression of a plinth or base.

2.3 It is important that the street elevation avoids the suburban residential image and greateremphasis should be given to retaining the natural character of the Estate, maintaining views, and

eliminating all fencing.

2.4 The general guidelines are applicable to all areas of the Hilltop Estate.

7.0 OWNER – BUILDER.

7.1 An owner-builder who is registered with the Master Builders Association and with an acceptableconstruction record will be considered to construct his own house. The references of prior

building contracts must be given and he will not be allowed to negotiate any further work on the

Estate without HPEMA approval.7.2 An Owner Builder may only build one house on the estate and must occupy it for at a least one

year after completion.

7.3 An Owner Builder must be registered with the NHBRC as an owner builder.

8.0 PRICING PROCEDURES.

8.1 Generally prices should be obtained from detailed approved sketch plans and a specification orfrom final drawing and specification. Every effort should be made not to obtain budget prices

from preliminary drawings, as these are misleading and contractors often allow for extra costswhere details are insufficient. House prices received using this method in the past has proved to

be misleading.

The following are acceptable methods of obtaining prices from the contractors:

8.2 Negotiation

8.2.1 Where a purchaser has been recommended or knows the contractor, he may enter intodirect negotiation with the contractor. This is generally a sound practice as you are then

assured of using the contractor of your choice and are in a position to structure the priceaccording to your available funds through negotiation.

8.3 Open Tender

8.3.1 Drawings together with a specification or Bill of Quantities are packaged together,

normally by the architect and all approved contractors are briefed on the contract togetherand a date is set for the return of the prices. Once the prices are received, they are

opened simultaneously and the prices are disclosed to all. It is usual for the lowest priceto be accepted, but if there is a large discrepancy between the first two prices, the client

may accept the second price.

8.3.2 There are certain disadvantages to this procedure. The client may be required to use acontractor that is unknown to him and probably the most serious disadvantage is that the

contractors have cut their price to the bone to attain the work and make up their profit

through any extras requested by the client.

8.4 Invited Tender

8.4.1 This is similar to the open tender procedure with the advantage that only selected

contractors are allowed to price.

8.5 In concluding, we strongly advise that once a price has been received through the tenderprocedure and is outside the budget of the client, which the client re-looks at the design andspecification and re-tenders with the selected contractors, or negotiates with the lowest tenderer.

To work outside these parameters in the above situation is in conflict with the rules and

regulations of the Master Builders Association.




17

9.0 CONSTRUCTION COST SUNDRIES.

9.1 The price from the contractors does not normally include the following, and allowances must bemade for:

9.1.1 Electrical connection fee and deposit. This is normally in the region of R3,000.00for a single phase connection, payable to the Kwa Dukuza Municipality.

9.1.2 Water connection fee and deposit. This is normally in the region of R1,750.00

payable to the Siza Water.

9.1.3 Sewer connection. There is normally a charge if the site connection provided isutilised. However, if a new connection point is requested, Siza normally charges

about R1 000.00 + deposit of R800

These fees must be checked with the Local Authority and Siza Water.

10.0 CONSTRUCTION.

10.1 On approval of the building plans by the Local Authority, the Principal Agent must apply to the

Estate Manager for a site hand over meeting in order to commence construction. This applicationmust be made at least 5 working days prior to the anticipated site hand over date.
