BRIEF OVERVIEW OF THE LED CONCEPT
• The aim of LED is to create employment opportunities for
local residents, alleviate poverty and redistribute
resources and opportunities to the benefit of all local
residents.
• In order for Local Economic Development (LED) to be
effective, a community needs to identify and consider its
own economic strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and
threats and agree on a shared strategy.
Continues
• LED is characterised by the following objectives:
(a) Establishing a job-creating economic growth path;
(b) Embarking upon sustainable rural development and urban
renewal; and
(c) Bringing the poor and disadvantaged to the centre of
development
LEGISLATIVE & POLICY FRAMEWORK OF THE L.E.D
• LED Strategies cannot stand alone, but need to, within its
larger context, conform to and take into consideration many
national, provincial and local government policies,
programmes and initiatives.
Continues…
• The most relevant national policies and legislation applicable
to the LED process are:
(a) The Constitution the RSA of 1996
(b) The National Development Plan (NDP 2030)
(c) The New Growth Path & the Industrial Policy Action Plan (IPAP)
(d) The National Spatial Development Perspectives (NSDP of 2006)
(e) Local Government Municipal Systems Act (MSA)
(f) Municipal Finance Management Act (MFMA)
(g) Regional Industrial Development Strategy (RIDS)
(h) LDM (DTI) LED Strategy of 2009
(i) LDM Integrated Development Plan 2012/2013
(j) Reviewed Free State PGDS of May,2012
BRIEF OVERVIEW OF LEJWELEPUTSWA DISTRICT
MUNICIPALITY
• The purpose of this section is to provide an
overview of the key social, spatial and
demographic trends, challenges and
opportunities within the Lejweleputswa
District Municipality
DEFINING THE AREA OF ANALYSIS
Continues…
REGIONAL CONTEXT
• Located on the western
border of the Free State
Province
• Bordered by the Northern
Cape Province to the west
and the North West
Province to the North West
and seven other District
Municipalities as illustrated
by Map
LOCAL CONTEXT
• A quarter of the Free State
population resides in District;
drawn by the Mining sector
which commenced in the late
nineteenth century.
• National Roads - The N1 runs
through Matjhabeng and
Masilonyana LMs), the N5
(through Masilonyana and the
N8 runs through the southern
portion of Tokologo LM and
the N12 runs along the
western border of the District.
Continues…
REGIONAL CONTEXT
• District Municipality covers
a surface area of 31 976
square kilometres (Quantec
Research)
• The nearest airport is in the
Northern Cape in Kimberly,
therefore the District is
most easily accessible by
road.
LOCAL CONTEXT
• The Phakisa freeway, a
multi-purpose motor sport
facility, runs between
Welkom and Odendaalsrus.
• The roads in the District are
in need of repair (LDM
Integrated Development
Plan, 2012-2017).
TRANSPORTATION WITHIN THE DISTRICT
Continues….
• Lejweleputswa District Municipality is accessible by road from
Cape Town, Johannesburg, Klerksdorp and Kimberly through
the national N1 highway.
• There is a fairly good network of main roads in the District
except in Tokologo LM whose main road density is less than
that in the rest of the District.
• Unlike in Johannesburg, there is no congestion on the roads,
vehicles travel at a comfortable speed with many traffic circles
controlling traffic.
• There is no railway line network in Tokologo, while the other
four LMs have at least one railway line.
Continues…
• The district is one of the five district municipalities in the Free
State. The other four are Mangaung Metro, which is located in
south east; Thabo Mofutsanyana in the north east; Fezile Dabi
in the north as well as Xhariep in the south east.
• The district is predominantly known as the Free State
Goldfields which forms a part of the larger Witwatersrand
basin.
• The spatial planning for Lejweleputswa indicates that the
district has 3 190 855 hactares of area which constitutes
about 26.4% of the total provincial land area of approximately
12 969 028 hactares.

ECONOMIC POTENTIAL OF THE DISTRICT
• The district has economic activities and development
opportunities within the main economic sectors,
namely Agriculture, Mining, Manufacturing, Utilities
& Construction, Transport & Communication, Trade,
Finance and Social/Community Services, as well as
Tourism.
• Each sector will be briefly described in terms of its
local context and its potential for development
AGRICULTURE
• The agricultural products that are common to all five Local Municipalities
within the District are: Maize, Sunflower, Wheat, Groundnuts(except in
Masilonyana) Cattle, Poultry & Small scale vegetable farming.
• The following products are unique to various Local Municipalities:

Hydroponic/Greenho
Crops are planted in a solution with all nutritional

requirements rather than being planted in soil. This
would work well in dry areas such as Tokologo Local
Municipality
Tokologo
MINING
• Mining activity is located mostly within Masilonyana Local
Municipality and Matjhabeng Local Municipality.
• The solid minerals mined are Gold and Diamonds. These are
precious metals with many uses mainly in jewellery
manufacturing.
• The gold is mined in Theunissen and Welkom and the
Diamonds are mined in Theunissen. The exploration of
methane gas was approved in 2007 (Goldfields, 2007).
• If sufficient methane gas reserves are found, this could be a
valuable source of energy for Masilonyana Municipality;
where the exploration is likely to take place.
Continues…
• Opportunities that may be explored in the mining sector
include:

MANUFACTURING
• This sector is broadly defined as the physical or chemical
transformation of materials or compounds into new products.
• Manufacturing in the District is not a dominant sector and it has a
low location quotient showing that Lejweleputswa District
Municipality (LDM) does not have a comparative advantage. The
Manufacturing sector is mainly made up of the few abattoirs in the
District.
• However, the Free State Development Corporation, in line with
national goals has targeted the following sectors for foreign direct
investment: farm machinery and equipment, leather tanning and
finishing, gold jewellery and beneficiation and petrochemicals.
Continues…
•
These are opportunities that can be exploited for attracting domestic and foreign investment
especially in Food Processing as well as in the Bio-fuel production. However, since there are
ongoing debates about how the production of bio-fuels may affect the supply of food for
human beings, this project may rather be exploited by National fuel corporations.

ELECTRICITY AND WATER (UTILITIES)
• The water infrastructure consists mostly of reservoirs and pipelines
of Sedibeng Water which supply the Goldfields region and the
mines with Vaal River water. There are main reservoirs east of
Allanridge, at Welkom, north and south of Virginia.
• There are pump stations east of Allanridge and at Virginia. There is
a purification plant at Virginia. All the District towns rely on ground
water extraction for the water supply. Eskom serves all the mines in
the District and most of the electrical network is within Matjhabeng
Local Municipality.
• It was noted that it would be expensive for the local municipalities
within the District to electrify the rural area and farming areas as a
result of reduced Eskom-government subsidies.

• The District has a comparative advantage in the Construction sector,

Construction of homes, plumbing, electrical contracting, building

DEVELOPMENT THRUSTS
• In order to achieve that growth, there is a need for structural
changes that show visible effects at micro-economic level.
The narrowing of the spatial as well as first and second
economy differences is of pertinence in the South Africa
setting.
• This can be done by providing sufficient infrastructure and
services, involving communities wherever possible in
leveraging strengths in each area. All these factors, including
data from Stats SA, were utilised in proposing the following six
thrusts:
