An Italian property mogul and her husband claim their neighbour has breached building height regulations, obscuring their scenic view.

Cape Town - An Italian property mogul and her husband, supported by the Camps Bay and Clifton Ratepayers Association in a public petition, have claimed their neighbour has breached building height regulations, obscuring their scenic view.

“While the owner claims that only the rear is affected, lowering the roof to meet regulations would effectively eliminate the third storey – resulting in a building that is far less imposing on our streetscape and would allow better views from across the street. But their neighbour, Sajeel Maharaj, a businessman, said the allegations were an attack on his image publicly and that the full extent of his planning approval was not known, which gave him the right to build.

“In any event, the plans should not have been approved without a departure – and none was sought nor granted.” “The Title Deed for my property allows a building up to 10 metres and accordingly, irrespective of how the roof were to slope, I would still be entitled to have a 10-metre wall facing her property.
