Henties Bay Municipality was issued an ECC on 23 April 2015 for a validity period of three years. However, during the validity period of the ECC, Henties Bay Municipality have been preparing and finalizing contracts and agreements in order to commence with the proposed township establishment activities in the Omdel Extension 5. These contracts and agreements have therefore been recently finalized, thus, they wish to commence with the development immediately, hence this ECC Renewal Application.
