Windhoek's city government wants to sell off several plots of land. The total asking price sits around thirteen point seven million Namibian dollars. A public notice invites objections to the private sales before a late December deadline.
City spokesperson Lydia Amutenya said the fourteen properties slated for sale, located in areas like Rocky Crest and Katutura, have various zoning designations. The list includes industrial, residential, and business plots, plus one public open space. Their sizes vary widely. The sales follow approved development plans matching each property's zoning rules.
The municipality is also leasing three other properties. Rental rates differ sharply based on their use and scale. A ministry and an energy firm pay tens of thousands for large industrial sites. Meanwhile, a science center rents a tiny public space building for only one hundred dollars, a disparity the city attributes to zoning and square footage.
