Management of the Village

Overview

Faerie Glen Renaissance was registered on 18 August 2000 under the Sectional Titles Act, as a sectional title scheme (SS416/2000) in the highly sought-after suburb of Faerie Glen, located in the eastern part of Pretoria.
The development features 150 spacious, detached residential units, available in two- and three-bedroom layouts. The original owners had the opportunity to customize their building plans, resulting in a variety of unique homes within the community. Each property boasts its own distinct character, complemented by a private garden.
Faerie Glen Renaissance is conveniently situated with easy access to major highways, including the N4, N1, and the R21 leading to OR Tambo International Airport.
Residents benefit from proximity to several shopping centers, such as Olympus Plaza, Woodlands Boulevard, Atterbury Value Mart, Lynton Corner, and The Grove. Additionally, the community is near top healthcare facilities, including Faerie Glen Hospital, Pretoria East Hospital, Kloof Hospital, and Wilgers Hospital.

Governance
Faerie Glen Renaissance’s governance is subject to the management and conduct rules established under the above mentioned legislation. All residents are required to comply with these rules, which can be obtained from the village’s administrative officer.
The village’s highest authority is the body corporate, which exercises its powers and functions through a Board of Trustees. The trustees are elected annually by residents at the annual general meeting. The board comprises a chairman, vice-chairman, secretary, and additional trustees, each overseeing specific portfolios such as finance, security, maintenance, gardens, social activities, and general management. Trustees may involve other residents, with board approval, to assist in fulfilling their responsibilities within these portfolios.

The current Board of Trustees is composed as follows:
Chairperson – Hans van der Merwe
Vice Chairperson – Cahrima van Rooyen
Finance – Aletta Geldenhuys
Secretary – Annatjie Haasbroek
Social – Erna van Wyk
Maintenance – Johan le Grange
Security – Pieter van Driel
Management Matters – Werner Pauw

The current Managing Agent is Frikman Nel. The managing agent is not a member of the Board of Trustees and is appointed (annually) by the Body Corporate.

General Management 
Residents are encouraged to actively contribute to the village management by submitting written suggestions for improving operations or addressing relevant concerns to the Board of Trustees.

Finances
The village’s annual budget is presented during a special general meeting, which all property owners or their proxies are strongly encouraged to attend. This meeting is critical for approving the annual levy and other financial matters.

Monthly Levy
The monthly levy paid by all residents covers a range of essential services, including:
• Sewerage services
• Refuse removal
• Maintenance and garden services
• Security
• Salaries and wages for staff
• Building insurance
• General administration
Water and electricity consumption are monitored separately for each unit and invoiced accordingly.
This structure ensures transparency and accountability while promoting effective management and operational efficiency within the village.
