EVERY municipality in South Africa is required to produce an Integrated Development Plan, in which the city's future is mapped over the short, medium and long term. Issues that are considered include spatial planning, disaster management, finances, performance targets and economic development.
The key to the process is "integration" -- meaning that all processes are considered in relation to one another.
Johannesburg's IDP is available for downloading from this web site, in Adobe Acrobat format, with each chapter in a separate file.
