A MSDF is a long-term forward planning document which spatially indicates the long-term growth and development path of a municipality.

It co-ordinates the spatial implications of all strategic sector plans (engineering, transport, economic, housing, community services etc.) of a municipality.

A MSDF is also one of the core components of a municipal IDP and gives physical effect to the vision, goals and objectives of the municipal IDP.

Once completed, the MSDF will be approved in terms of the Municipal Systems Act, 2000 (Act 32 of 2000) and will serve as a guide to decision making in development and land use planning.

In terms of section 11(b) of the Land Use Planning Act, 2014 (Act 3 of 2014), the Municipality has not established an Intergovernmental Steering Committee.

A Project Committee, which is responsible for the re-write of the MSDF, has been established in terms of section 4 of the Langeberg Municipality: Land Use Planning By-Law, 2015.

This committee must adhere to the procedural requirements outlined in section 13 of LUPA and section 7 of the Langeberg Municipality: Land Use Planning By-Law 2015.
