A complete upgrade and temporary housing plan has been approved for Vygieskraal informal settlement. PHOTO: TARRENLEE HABELGAARN
VYGIESKRAAL
New beginningsTARRENLEE HABELGAARN
@LeeLaVidaLoca
The upgrading of Vygieskraal informalsettlement has sparked many debatesover crime and living conditions for ad-
jacent neighbourhoods.Residents say while they are willing to
work with council to resolve crime, they areagainst the expansion of Vygieskraal.The City of Cape Town confirms that an
upgrading of the informal settlement pro-gramme is planned for Vygieskraal andtherefore new housing will be of a tempo-rary nature. Vygieskraal is home to 216 fam-ilies.Mayoral Committee Member for Human
Settlements Benedicta van Minnen says al-though the process still has to be finalised,various types of top structures are being in-vestigated.She further elaborates that, while it would
be challenging to accommodate everyone inthe upgraded settlement, the City will do ev-erything possible to keep the number of fam-ilies that would potentially have to be relo-cated to a minimum.“Those families who cannot be accommo-
dated will be offered opportunities in anoth-er project of a similar nature,” she says.The Vygieskraal Upgrading of Informal
Settlements Programme project entails theprovision of asphalt roadways, full flush toi-lets, stormwater drainage and sewer pipe-lines.Van Minnen explains the site is already
electrified. However, the existing site elec-tricity will be upgraded.“Informal settlements are usually charac-
terised by challenges with regards to accessto basic services, scantydwellings andagen-eral lack of health and education facilities.The upgrade will address these issues andimprove the living conditionswithin the set-tlement,” she says.“Due to the rapid rate of urbanisation tak-
ing place in the Cape Metro, suitable vacantland is difficult to find. The National Hous-ing Code thus makes provision for in-situupgrades or the Upgrading of Informal Set-tlements Programme.”The objective is to facilitate the structured
in-situ upgrading of informal settlements in-stead of relocations to achieve tenure securi-ty, which means when the structures arecomplete, a tenure certificate will be given
to families.“This gives informal settlement residents
a sense of security. Living conditions are al-so improved by providing basic municipalinfrastructure which is affordable. Theproject will address social and economic ex-clusion through a participative process byaddressing the social needs of the communi-ty,” Van Minnen says.A Belgravia who did not want to be named
says residents who have been trying to getrid of the informal settlement are not happyabout the proposed plans to upgrade it.“Most of the people caught trying to break
in or cause trouble in the neighbourhoodwere from the informal settlement and forthat reason residents are concerned aboutmaking people more comfortable in the vlei.We aren’t trying to discriminate againstthose living in the informal settlements, butif you look at the facts this is the reality.Where are they going to move the people?”he asks.He says they catch many people over
weekends selling drugs, carrying sharp ob-jects or trying to steal something and “unfor-tunately 99% of the time” culprits can betraced back to the vlei. “Now, with the re-blocking changing to an upgrade, they wantto move Hood Road and Kakjaardjie’s peo-ple, but where will they go?”Belgravia Ratepayers’ Association chair-
person Pat O’ Connor says while they wantto get rid of the informal settlements the so-lution is not moving them to another openspace.“There is already conflict between the
three groups and putting them in one spotcould turn violent,” he says.“We would like for council to find a differ-
ent spot to house all the residents from thesethree areas. It will not only make our taskeasier but be safer for those living in the in-formal settlement too. Every winter the riv-er overflows and it is a dampareawhere peo-ple are living. How much longer before thatwhole area collapses?”As residents worry about safety, shack-
dwellers can barely contain their excite-ment now that their prayers for better livingconditions have been answered.Norma Valentine says she can’t wait to
have electricity andwater in her ownhouse.“It will be so nice to have a warm place
to sleep and a house to call our own,” shesays.Shackdweller Thomas Oliver says he nev-
er thought he’d live to see this day.“This has truly been the best news.I cried when I found out we were getting
proper housing and access to basic needs be-cause we’ve been waiting for a long time,”he says.Athlone police spokesperson Sergeant Zi-
ta Norman says they have already increasedpatrols around hotspots.“We have been working around the clock
in theBelgravia and surrounding areas overthe past few months but it remains a chal-lenge,” she says.V Starting with the word “Post”, SMS your thoughtsto 32516. SMSes cost R1.

MODIFIED CAR SECTOR IN UPROAR
Proposed regulation ‘is ridiculous’CHEVON BOOYSEN
@ChevonBooysen
Proposed regulations to clamp down on“illegalmodifications and illegal rac-
ers” seem to have had a false start.The new regulation, made public two
weeks ago and which are to be added to theTraffic Regulations Act, caused an uproaramong the motoring fraternity. The pro-posed regulation seeks to “impose stricterfines on illegal racers and cars that aremodi-
fied”, says a media release.Enthusiasts are now banding together to
take a stand against the proposed regula-tion.Meanwhile City of Cape Town safety and
security mayco member JP Smith said histeam will impose stricter fines on driversfound guilty of taking part in illegal races.He saidmedia reports that he andhis team
“plan to target drivers of modified vehicles”are “worryingly inaccurate”.“For the record, the City’s Traffic Service
is mandated to enforce the provisions of theNational Road Traffic Act No. 93 of 1996.[This is] a national piece of legislationwhichstates that anymodification of or tamperingwith a vehicle’s safety design renders the ve-hicle unroadworthy unless it is done by themanufacturer or a registered body builder,”Smith says.But car enthusiasts and the after-market
industry wants clarity on what this regula-tion will mean in practical terms.Cape TownCar Enthusiasts (CTCE) repre-
sentative Kersten Greybe says confusionhas many motorists driving in fear.“People are scared to even just drive their
cars to the corner shops since the announce-ment. Nobody knowswhat is happening andno answers have been given and we need toknow exactly what this means for the CapeTown car culture,” she says.Greybe says more people in the modified
car circle are selling their cars. “People areopting to sell their cars because they don’twant criminal records or to pay steep finesthat may land them in court eventually. Theproposed [regulation] is ridiculous and willnever work.”She agrees it is good to clamp down on ille-
gal racing as it “endangers the car culturein the province”. “Clamping down on illegalracers I can understand as they are a hazardon the road. But to paint everybody with thesame brush is horribly unfair.”She adds that manymotorists take part in
events at Killarney Raceway, but immedi-ately after events “we find ourselves in aroadblock, just outside the venue. What isthe point of practising your sport legally butyou’re victimised anyway?”She started an online petition to prevent
the proposed regulation being passed. At thetime of the interview she represented 20 000motorists. “We want our voices to be heard.For too longwe have been underdogs andwehave now decided to educate ourselves withregard to the proposed [regulation]. We ar-en’t artists with canvasses so ourmasterpie-ces are our cars,” she says.Interpretation of and enforcing the letter
of the law is also at issue. Online posts havebeen buzzing with incidents of clampdowns.Ghost Squad officers have, meanwhile,
been fining drivers of modified vehicles andeven confiscating their car licence discs.Two drivers, in a post on Facebook, were
en route to Killarneywhen theywere arrest-ed for allegedly speeding. The officers alsotook their car licence discs. One driver wasfined R4000 for “inconsiderate driving and
wheelspinning”. He posted that an officersaid he would “make an example of us be-cause we are the people talking bad [sic] ofthem on social media”.He posted: “We spent our legal race night
with real criminals. TheGhost Squad officerdid everything in his ability to lock us upalthough the police at the police station didnot want him to do so because of the pettyoffence.”Anothermotorist, who does notwant to be
named, says the proposed regulation isdoomed. “Itwill neverwork,” he says. “Theyhaven’t thought this through. The motoringindustry is huge and understandably peopleare in uproar. We feel victimised and haveno clarity as Smith changes his story everyother day.”He says he is afraid to drive his car any-
where because the Ghost Squad is instillingfear in drivers. “I had lots of modificationsdone to my car, so it may perform better. Ispent a lot of time and money on it only tonow not be sure if I can drive around withit as the Ghost Squad has been targetingmodified cars since the release of the articlea week ago.”Registered tuner shops say they fear the
after-market industry will be under threatshould the bylaw impose stricter laws onanybody with a modified vehicle.Yaseen Abrahams, of CPi Performance In-
novation Cape Town, says they are “highlyconcerned”with theoutlawingof carmodifi-cations.“CPi only engages in legal modification of
cars and ourwork is of the highest standard.Outlawing modifications will have a hugeimpact on the industry. Surely if individualsabide by the law it is their right to modifytheir cars as they wish,” Abrahams says.“CPi acknowledges that many people en-
gage in illegal street racing, but we promoteand support the legal usage of modifiedcars.”The regulations are to be in effect inApril,
but Smith adds the enactment of the regula-tions is the responsibility of the provincialtransport division. “TheCity has lobbied forthe inclusion of impoundment of vehicleswhere owners are caught participating in il-legal street races, steep vehicle release feesto act as a further deterrent, stricter penal-ties for motorists (including prison terms)especially those who try to evade the lawwhen confronted and suitable penalties forspectators at illegal street races to be includ-ed in the Act,” says Smith, who adds fit-ments by registered after-market tuners arelegal if the proper process has been followed.V What do you think the City should do to clamp downon illegal racers?

Proposed new regulations to stamp out illegal racing have been met with disbelief by themodified motoring fraternity. Many claim it will be difficult to enforce and say they’re beingvictimised because of the assumption that modified cars are used in illegal races.

Killarney a safer route for speed freaksThere is a safer option for motoring enthu-siasts to give vent to their need for speed.After media reports about stricter law
enforcement againstmodified cars and ille-gal road racing, Killarney will avail its fa-cilities so the publicmay race and test theircars under safe and controlled conditions.Killarney executivemanagerDesEasom
says in a statement the facility is ideal fortesting vehicles under safe conditions.“Killarney is not only a top racing venue.
It is also a place of family entertainmentand the opportunity to enjoy speed and per-formance under safe conditions,” Easomsays.Killarney, home of theWestern Province
Motor Club, hosts Club Drags, Street2Strip(S2S) and Streetcar Track day events eachmonth. Street2Strip is an event where roadgoing cars use the drag strip and the fullcircuit is used in Streetcar track days.Drivers from as far as George and Knys-
na participate. Entry for the Street2Strip isR50.Easom says safety takes top priority at
the facility.“Safety is vitally important to us – both
on the track and on public roads. Modifica-tions by qualified and reputable specialistswill generally improve road safety by im-proving the handling of the cars and off-roadvehicles. It is known that driver behaviour– recklessness, impatience, drowsiness, ex-cessive speed, alcohol and substance effects– are the primary reason for road accidents.Unroadworthy vehicles and modified vehi-cles are not necessarily the same thing.”Killarney’s events for everyday drivers
provide a safe introduction to motorsport.Participants use their own cars.Easom says safety precautions are taken
with all drivers before they race.“Long pants, long sleeve tops and a decent
crashhelmet are required for all drivers andpassengers at S2S and Trackday events. Thevehicles are also required to pass a safetycheck and medical teams and the Killarneymarshals are at these events.”V For more information visit www.wpmc.co.za or theKillarney Facebook page.

GF JOOSTE
New hospital to be builtTARRENLEE HABELGAARN
@LeeLaVidaLoca
Vandalised to the core, GF Jooste Hos-pital will have to be rebuilt. The facil-ity has been vacant since last July in
preparation for a multimillion rand up-grade.But extensive vandalism has resulted in
a health department decision to build anew facility from scratch, following en-quiries.The current infrastructure will be de-
molished. A date has not yet been set forthis to happen.Meanwhile, patients will have to take re-
course to medical services elsewhere.Emergency medical services previously
rendered at GF Jooste have been tempora-rily relocated to Heideveld CommunityHealth Care Centre, while Mitchell’s PlainHospital will provide emergencies and oth-er health services.This is, until the newGF Jooste Hospital
is constructed.The provincial health department has
confirmed a replacement hospital is beingplanned and the existing hospital willtherefore not be upgraded as a previouslyindicated (“Hospital stripped as thieves,vandals hit”, People’s Post, 18 November).The initial upgrade, at a cost of R785m,
was scheduled to take place this year.Over the past few months the hospital
has been stripped to the bone and buildingmaterials were stolen from the premises.Health department spokesperson Emer-
antia Cupido says new premises have yetto be decided upon for the new hospital.
“GFJoosteHospitalwill be rebuilt in thesame vicinity,” she confirms.Custodianship of the infrastructure is,
meanwhile, relinquished to the provincialtransport and public works department.In the interimmeasures are being taken
to prevent further vandalism and theft atthe facility.“The custodianhas secured thepremises
as far as possible and security is on site,”says Cupido.
Approval has already been given to re-build the hospital, but a date has yet to beset for commencement of the project.GlendaArendse, ofManenberg, says res-
idents do not want to travel outside the ar-ea for medical care.“I don’t want to travel far from home to
go to a hospital. I think it is completely un-acceptable that a high crime area like Ma-nenberg is currently operating without ahospital. People have to travel far to get toanother hospital and those hospitals are al-ready too full,” she says.
“Many of the people are seniors whodon’t have transport andwalk to the hospi-tal. I worry about how they will get toMitchell’s Plain and I’m also concernedabout their safety in those high risk andunfamiliar areas.”Resident Kashiefa Richards says it is not
the first time residents are being sent outof the neighbourhood formedical services.“Every few years something like this
happens where changes are made to peo-ple’s routines and then it is the elderlywhosuffer. It is not fair.”
Klipfontein sub-district health forumchairperson Isgaak Kamaar says movinghealth services such as emergency servi-ces from certain areas is a step backwards.“The point of having multiple dispens-
ing points is to make the workload athealthcare facilities more equal. By takingaway one facility you cause an overload atanother. The point of these facilities is alsoto create a convenient and quick servicefor patients so that they don’t have to waitin long queues,” he says.“This just defeats the purpose.”
Only the shell remains of GF Jooste Hospital, which will now no longer be upgraded. A new hospital is to be built. PHOTO: SUPPLIED

SURREY ESTATE
Park setfor upgradeTARRENLEE HABELGAARN
@LeeLaVidaLoca
Safety at the newly erected eco-park anddrop-off site in Surrey Estate has beenjacked up now that funding has been
made available.This comes as a relief to parents and resi-
dents who have been worried about chil-dren being vulnerable to crime while play-ing in the park.Thepark formspart of theMayoralUrban
Regenerative Programme that was identi-fied as a project to provide a facility for chil-dren to play, as well as a site where peoplecan recycle and drop off unwanted waste toprevent illegal dumping.Ward councillor Junade Hoosain says,
following a site inspection, the visit provedto be very fruitful as they succeeded in ad-dressing deep concerns about the safety ofthe children using this facility.“Initially, we were able to agree to some
rudimentary measures because of the se-vere lack of capital funding. We were ableto secure funding and finish the park. Thisincludes the fencing and bollards to ensurethe children’s safety,” he says.“This is an important element becausewe
can’t have a new facility in that area thatdoesn’t include safety.”Hoosain says the official opening of the
park will take place before Easter.The park will also have an amphitheatre,
running track and environmentally friend-ly materials used for the equipment.This is one of five park upgrades planned
for ward 46.“As soon as the new financial year kicks
in we will start work on the upgrades to theparks. In each park, money will be spent toimprove safety and add new equipment.”Resident Anoushca Parker says she will
be so relieved to have fencing around thepark.“Here are very few facilities available for
our children to play in or where they canentertain themselves. We have to take thechildren to a safe park and now we haveone. Keeping our children safe is the num-ber one priority,” she says.“Gangsters have become a bigger pres-
ence in the area and it is always a concerntomake sure our childrenaren’t hurt, takenadvantage of or robbed for someone else’spersonal gain. Without fencing it is alsoeasy for children to run into the road andget knocked. That’swhy fencingwas impor-tant to me.”Parker says parents aren’t always at
home to accompany children, so this willgive them some peace of mind.Ruwaydah Cassiem says she is excited
about the new drop-off site and hopes it cansolve the illegal dumping in the area.“Dumping is a huge problem. In most
streets you can find papers, furniture andhouseholdwaste scattered everywhere. Thenew sitewill be educational for the childrento learn about the importance of recyclingandhopefully itwill assist in thepreventionof illegal dumping,” she says.V Starting with the word “Post”, SMS your thoughtsto 32516.

War on crime is online
Applications and social media siteshave modernised and simplified theway people communicate with one an-
other.Andwith easy access, thanks to the smart
phone revolution, it has also been an effec-tive crime fighting tool, say locals.With the success of many chatrooms and
groups, neighbourhood watches, subfo-rums, sector committees and the communi-ty police forum are using the platform tospread the word.One of these successful groups belongs to
the Lanroe Neighbourhood Watch.The group includes all residents from the
area and is used as a tip-off line to alertwatch members of suspicious activity andcrime in the area.Group administrator Hylton Mitchell
says the group has made a positive impacton crime in the area thus far and hopes togrow the network in neighbouring areas.Watch chairperson Adam Fisher could
not be reached for comment at the time ofgoing to print.Lansdowne Community Police Forum
(CPF) chairperson Mike Kabat says he sup-ports the use of these platforms but warnsresidents to be careful of whom they trust.“We do get information a lot quicker with
the use of social media but there is a downside to that as well. We have many groupsputting out information without verifyingit. When unsubstantiated information isput out there, it causes unnecessary para-noia in the community. There are many so-cial media groups which use unreliable in-formation. This is not a good idea. Thesegroups must also not accept everyone intotheir groups because they could be using
the information for thewrong reasons,” Ka-bat points out.Kenwyn Ratepayers’ Association chair-
person and former provincial CPF boardchairperson Hanif Loonat agrees.“It is a good idea to use social media to
fight crime. However, this should not beused to discuss crime combating routines.Criminals also use social media and theycan see your plans and use this informationagainst you,” he says.Kabat says the CPF has been in discus-
sion about their use of social media.“We support the neighbourhood watches
and street committees making use of theseplatforms. But the information that is dis-tributedmust come from a reliable source,”Kabat reiterates.“I am included in 12 of these social media
groups and I would like to see these admin-istrations exercise more control over whatis shared. When residents get involved indiscussing crimes indetail, especiallywhenthey are not mandated to do so, they canjeopardise investigations. This is especiallytrue in the distribution of pictures of some-one in custody. Defence lawyers can usethis against the police,” he says.Loonat suggests these groups use the
chatrooms more thoughtfully.“These groups can be used to better the
lives of your neighbours by discussingtrends and tips on how to avoid becominga victim of crime.“This platform should be used to educate
residents but should not be abused andusedto create fear,” he says.Last year, 12 newneighbourhoodwatches
have been formedwith themajority of themmaking use of social media.

ROAD SAFETY
Curbing speedTARRENLEE HABELGAARN
@LeeLaVidaLoca
New traffic calmingmeasures andextrasecuritywill hopefully be the solutionto residents’ frustration with speed-
ing in Surrey Estate.For years residents have felt that the area
has been a forgotten community as most ofthe ward allocation money had previouslybeen spent improving safety and living con-ditions in high crime areas such as Manen-berg and Hanover Park.This year resident’s prayers for speed
humps and raised intersections will be an-swered when traffic calming measures to-talling more than R150 000 are implement-ed.Ward councillor JunadeHoosain admitsthe area has not received adequate atten-tion and he has therefore decided to makeit a priority for the new financial year.“Many of residents’ traffic and safety con-
cerns will be addressed with the implemen-tation of the new traffic calming measures.I have set aside a large amount of my wardallocationmoney toassistwith the speedingtaking place in the area, but I am not ableto put in all traffic calming requested,” hesays.“Residents need to understand that one
speed hump costs R20 000, so while it seemsas though five or six speed humps are a lit-tle, the total costs are more than R100 000being spent in one area.”Resident Jordan Oliver says he is re-
lieved. “We have been struggling for yearsto get the council to do something about thisracing and finally real measures are goingto be put in place to help,” he says.“We also didn’t want someone to die be-
fore action is taken.”Oliver also feels if food and shebeens
nearby closed earlier it would be even bet-
ter.“The reason people are still racing
around at that time of the night is becausethe places are open until 02:00. While I un-derstand they need to make money, if theyclose earlier there wouldn’t be a reason forpeople to hang around until the early hoursof the morning,” he addsResident Theresa Jacobs says she thinks
people are making a big fuss over nothing.“I remember driving at night and watch-
ing the drag racing when I was a youngster.This is nothing new,” she says.“Those people complaining about the
noise or the racing knew about it beforetheymoved here. As long as children are re-sponsible I don’t see a problem. The prob-lem comes in when youngsters drink anddrive irresponsibly.”V Starting with the word “Post”, SMS your thoughtsto 32516. SMSes cost R1.

WRITE TO US |email | fax | post Beach outings soured by ‘double standards’
We visited four beaches during our15-day stay in Cape Town: Camps Bay,Seaforth, Fish Hoek and Mnandi. Whatbothered me the most was the doublestandards applied when it comes to howyou get treated at these beaches.Camps Bay was our first stop for a dip
in the ocean. With our cooler box, towelsand sunscreen lotion we were lucky toget one of those beautiful blue umbrellas.The day was world class in terms ofamenities.New Year’s Day we went with the
extended family to Mnandi Beach, as wewere assured it had been “upgraded”. Iwas amazed that the place had noparking for disabled persons near thepool.Imagine my horror when a law en-
forcement officer decides that the samecooler box [used at] Camps Bay must besearched. I refused as it contained myfood and I was not sure how clean hishands were.On what did he base the decision to
search my cooler box? It did not happenonce at Camps Bay.I informed him if he can come with
clean hands and food safety gloves, mycooler box is all his.I am back in Johannesburg, and I’m
still waiting for him.The straw that broke the camel’s back
was having to witness elderly people,including my dad, stripped of theirdignity when they had to relieve them-selves behind cars and dunes as someonehad decided there was no urgency toopen the public toilets.After several requests, it was finally
opened at 11:30.It made sense why it was kept locked.
It was filthy and vandalised. This wasthe site that greeted everyone who didnot want to be fined for relieving them-selves behind cars and dunes.I am not for one moment crying racism
or any similar overused words, as thecleanliness of Cape Town is what weshould strive for.Why are the same world class stan-
dards at Camps Bay, Fish Hoek andSeaforth beaches not applied at MnandiBeach? Why search people and theirproperty at Mnandi, and not at CampsBay or Fish Hoek beaches?

Belinda Walker, Mayoral CommitteeMember for Community Services andSpecial Projects, responds: The Citydoes not wish to apply double standardsin terms of how any of our facilities arerun; rather, we aim to ensure that allour facilities are welcoming, inclusiveand safe spaces for the public to enjoy.The writer’s concerns were fully
investigated by both the manager forCoastal Coordination and the director ofSport, Recreation and Amenities (SRA).Given that 31 December is New Year’s
Eve and with peak season there is likelyto be a swathe of beach-goers accessingour facilities, the City makes every effortto ensure our facilities are well-preparedand in a clean, tidy condition. Ablutionsat beaches are open from 09:00 to 18:00and these amenities are serviced daily bydedicated cleaning staff throughout the
day. During the Christmas and New Yearperiod, staff gave assurance the ablutionsat Mnandi beach were open on time.The Coastal Coordination manager did
not receive any complaints about theablutions being closed nor any com-plaints about their condition. In suchinstances, updates and reports areprovided by the Disaster Risk Manage-ment Centre straight away and giventhat SRA did not receive any complaints,this letter came as a surprise. Neverthe-less, we sincerely apologise for anynegative experience that the writer mayhave had.
. Richard Bosman, of the City’s safetyand security directorate, responds:With regard to searches done on beaches,the City’s bylaws prohibit the introduc-tion, possession and consumption ofalcohol on beaches. In spite of this, manypeople contravene regulations – oftenwith devastating consequences. Over thepast festive season, staff confiscated11 570 bottles of alcohol from the beaches– an increase of 3200 bottles comparedwith the previous year. We also reporteda dramatic drop in the number ofdrowning incidents over the same period.Law enforcement staff conduct searches
at all beaches. It is easier to do this atsome beaches where access control iseasier to manage, compared with CampsBay which is an open access beach. Atthe latter, officers have to rely onroaming patrols to spot infringements,instead of searching vehicles and confis-cating alcohol as people enter the beacharea.

Locals should learn from foreignersWhenever there are xenophobic outburstsit would seem the looting is an act ofenvy of the foreigners opening up smallbusinesses in our communities.These businesses are set up in homes,
garages or containers and they sell foodand other basic necessities cheaply tolocal communities.Although they are mostly small busi-
nesses, it can be an antidote to unemploy-ment. Those who operate these shopsemploy people from the local communityand they make a decent living.Our fellow South Africans should learn
from our foreign neighbours and beencouraged to take that bold step andopen their own spaza shops.South Africans should perhaps source
partnerships with the poorer communi-ties and finance a few residents to openup shops.If there is a low-cost housing communi-
ty or informal settlements in my area,choose a few homeowners and becomelegal business partners with them.If you have a car, go to the big whole-
salers and buy and deliver stock to thepartners. Have a meeting every Friday onprofits, stocktaking and expansion.
KEITH BLAKE
The streets of Cape Town can be a cold and hard placefor the homeless.Probably the city’smost vulnerable group, street people
are old friends with hunger, addiction, abuse and illness.Yet we are told not to encourage homelessness.We are advised to report street people, refrain from giv-
ing directly to them and leave their fates in the hands ofthe municipality and night shelters.Because to not do this is to be “irresponsible”.This would make for an admirable plan, if those very
authorities were capable of assisting street people in linewith the promises they make.The City of Cape Town recently stated its Early Child-
hood Development Directorate had assisted 150 homelesspeople off the street over a three-month period, endingin December.At this rate, the City is assisting less homeless people
each month than it has fieldworkers.There are about 9000 people living on the street.If even a third of these street people wanted assistance,
it would take the City’s 64 fieldworkers and 13 reintegra-tion officers five years to relocate them from the city’sstreets.Nevermind the scores of peoplemigrating to the streets
daily.This is despite the City receiving assistance from a
number city improvement districts across the metrowhich have incorporated fieldworkers and rehabilitationprogrammes into their mandate.This service is borne out of care for one’s fellow man,
not legislation.One could by all means ‘give responsibly’ and leave as-
sisting street people to the municipality – if only one feltthose very authorities cared for their residents, bothhoused and living on the street.Real action is needed.

DUINEFONTEIN ROAD
Dirt issuesTARRENLEE HABELGAARN
@LeeLaVidaLoca
Illegal dumping and theft along Duinefon-tein Road have residents demanding bet-ter service delivery.Committee worker Rashieda Abrahams
says the street is lined with rubbish andshe fears the broken fencing along the rail-way line is an accident waiting to happen.
“Dumping and the theft of bricks and fen-cing along roads have been raised in morethan one community meeting. Not only isit a health hazard but a safety hazard too,”she says.
“If the fencing isn’t replaced it is easy forchildren to cross the railway tracks as ashortcut.”
Resident Ashley Williams says the con-tinuous dumping attracts rats and flies tothe area and she worries about potentialdiseases.
“It is unhygienic, I know that residentsare to blame for a lot of the dirt, but thatdoesn’t mean it should be left there forweeks.”
Mayoral Committee Member for UtilityServices Ernest Sonnenberg says illegaldumping is a problem along DuinefonteinRoad and the Department of Solid WasteManagement’s Cleansing Branch is awareof it.
“The area is cleaned as frequently as re-sources allow, but it has been establishedthat the majority of the dumping is per-formed by the local community,” he says.
“The City appeals to residents to use com-munity forums and other platforms of en-gagement available to them to rally theirmembers to stop dumping and to use theCity’s drop-off sites.”
Dumping is an ongoing challenge in thecity, for which there is “little good reason”,says Sonnenberg.
“All residents receive weekly door-to-door refuse collection services and, in addi-tion to this, the City offers all residents theuse of 25 drop-off facilities across the city.”
Residents are encouraged to use these fa-cilities, free of charge, for the disposal of ex-cess waste.
Residents can contact the City’s call cen-tre on 0860 103 089 to report illegal dumpingor sewer blockages.
Acting regional manager for Metrorail,Louis Beukes, says the regional head of pro-tection services and the commander of therailway police take note of concerns raisedof fencing left along Duinefontein Road, inaddition to the illegal dumping.
He explained that the region does its ut-most to expedite the replacement of fencingand walling.
“We continue to motivate for additionalfunding but we are also acutely aware thatwe are competing for finite resources,” saysBeukes.
He says this is within the context that thepurpose of railway fencing is to primarilydemarcate boundaries. In many instancesthe fencing is still serviceable in the contextof this purpose. Fencing replacement andrepairs are planned and prioritised annual-ly in terms of urgency and implemented ac-cording to available funding.
“Due to the vastness of the region and re-sources available, replacement and repairhas to be prioritised against other fencingprojects. The prioritisation is based on arisk assessment comprising a number ofcriteria,” he says.
Beukes explained that the region’s horti-cultural requirements far exceed the re-sources available to it and the clearance ofrubble is directed at keeping the railwaytracks clear and safe for rail operations.V Starting with the word “Post”, SMS your thoughtsto 32516. SMSes cost R1.
