A local council is clawing back hundreds of plots from owners who didn't build. Kusile Rural District Council in Matabeleland North announced plans to repossess 262 residential, commercial, and industrial stands. The properties are located at the Jotsholo and St Luke's service centers. Officials claim the stand holders failed to develop the land according to their agreement, violating the offer letters and lease conditions.
Affected owners have a limited period to submit formal objections with supporting documents. The council warned that stands without valid objections or agreed remedies will be seized without any compensation. Those plots would then be reallocated to applicants on existing housing waiting lists.
The notice specifies 193 stands at Jotsholo face repossession, including medium and low-density residential plots, commercial, industrial, and church sites. Another 69 residential stands are targeted at St Luke's. The council also reminded individuals on waiting lists to keep their annual registrations current. New registrations require a fee, set at twenty-five dollars for residential and thirty dollars for business stands.
