Facts of the Case

Background

The applicant, a housing cooperative registered in 2013, applied to the respondent City of Harare for land allocation in St Martins area. After interviews of 62 members in February 2018, no communication was received regarding the outcome. The respondent allegedly made a decision in December 2018 declining the allocation due to members' lack of capacity, but this decision was never communicated to the applicant until November 2022 through legal practitioners.
