RERA facilitates the support of the Rooiels Vision, promoting the adoption of policies and the implementation of services in ways that "Nurture Nature". RERA assists the Overstrand Municipality in a planning and coordinating role. RERA does not have authority to enforce. Within the guidelines of the Constitution, RERA acts as a conduit for ratepayers views and helps to ensure that municipal services are provided to the benefit of ratepayers in ways that are effective, efficient, accountable and in ways that reinforce the Rooiels Vision. RERA provides feedback to ratepayers and residents about matters and policies under consideration by the Overstrand Municipality and elicits input and a mandate where required.

Link here to the Rooiels Heritage Protection Overlay Zone (as gazetted and in force) and also the proposed RECOZ - Rooiels Conservation Zone that would extend protection to all of Rooiels and not only to properties seen from the R44 as the HPOZ is. Link to the Documents from the Information cascade which overwhelmingly discussed issues related to the Overlays and regulations for Rooiels and where the Overstrand Municipality assured the Meeting that they would support Rooiels which overwhelmingly requested RECOZ but agreed to accept the HPOZ in the meantime at the request of the OM. The inclusion of Rooiels into the Kogelberg Biosphere Reserve Buffer zone was discussed after a presentation on the KBR by Ruida Pool-Stanvliet, Cape Nature.

A member of the RERA Exco, as the Rooiels Representative, also attends the Overstrand Ward Committee meetings.
