FISH HOEK

Rubble rocks localsNICOLE MCCAIN

Piles of rubble on open ground behindthe Fish Hoek sports field have resi-dentsworried about the integrity of the

surrounding wetland.Resident Leslie van Minnen believes the

site has become a “municipal dump”, whichcould have lasting impact on the wetlandand neighbouring Table Mountain NationalPark.“The council needs to advise the ratepay-

ers of the legality of this dump and just what

their intention is with this ground. Besidesthe legal issue, this dump is expanding bythe day and is an unsightly mess. Theground structure in this area is certainlynotsuitable for a dump and one must assumethat the current polluted status of the streambetween the dump and sports field is a directresult of this action,” he says.But dumped rubble on the site is only a

temporary arrangement, says Brett Herron,mayoral committee member for transport.“The rubble on the site is being used for

the upgrading of Main Road in the SouthernPeninsula. The Main Road rehabilitation

project is in its third phase and the old con-crete viaduct structure at Clovelly is beingdemolished and a new solid retaining wallbeing constructed,” he explains.Concrete rubble from this demolition, as

well as soil generated by this project, is be-ing stored at a stockpile site adjacent to theFish Hoek transport and utility servicesmaintenance depots, Herron says.“This material will be removed from this

stockpile location for use as backfill materi-al behind this new retaining wall progres-sively over the next 18 months. The site isnot secured but is under security monitor-

ing from the depots,” he says.Making use of the stockpile, means the

council does not have to dump the materialat a landfill site and then import fill to thesite for the backfill when needed, both ofwhich would have added to the financialburden and the City’s carbon footprint, Her-ron says.However, Fish Hoek Valley Residents and

Ratepayers’ chairperson Allen Rose-Innessays the organisation is concerned thatmore carehasnot been takenwith the dump-ing of this rubble.V Continued on page 2.

“Following removal of the rubble we trustthat due care will be taken with the recla-mation and the protection of the wet-land,” he says.

The City’s electricity services depart-ment has reserved a portion of the site forthe construction of a new depot and is inthe process of reserving an additionalportion, says Ernest Sonnenberg, mayor-al committee member for utility services.

“A preliminary environmental impactassessment investigation indicated that aportion of the reserved site is a wetlandand may not be approved for develop-ment.

“We are in the process of reserving anadditional portion for the depot and willhave a better idea of the timeframes oncethis process has been concluded,” hesays.

Piles of rubble behind the Fish Hoek sports field come from, and are to be used in, theupgrade of Main Road.

Vusi Pikoli holdspolice to accountNICOLE MCCAIN

@nickymccain

Promoting transparency and accountabil-ity in the police service is the task of

South Africa’s first police ombudsman.The ombudsman’s office was established

under the Western Cape Community SafetyAct and is the only one in the country.

Ombudsman Vusi Pikoli, previously headof the National Prosecuting Authority, saysthe provincial department of communitysafety was receiving many service deliverycomplaints from the public. These were thenforwarded on to the police, as the depart-ment was not legally empowered to investi-gate any of them. The Act now takes advan-tage of national legislation allowing provin-cial government to investigate complaintsor set up a commission of enquiry, as wasseen with the Khayelitsha commission of in-quiry.

However, the ombudsman operates en-tirely independently of provincial govern-ment, Pikoli says, and the office will “fierce-ly protect” that independence.

“We don’t play politics here,” he says.“The question of crime affects everybodyand we need the public and police to trustand have confidence in us.”

Service deliveryThe ombudsman’s office oversees 151 sta-

tions across the province and 21 000 officers.Over 40 of these stations fall in the CapeTown metro. The office only has three inves-tigators, which makes this a mammoth task.

Since the office opened in mid-January, ithas received almost 150 complaints and en-

quiries, of which 48 have been resolved.The office aims to conclude a complaint

within three months, depending on the com-plexity of the case, Pikoli says.

The ombudsman only deals with servicedelivery complaints, such as the failure ofthe police to arrive after being called out orbeing rude to public visiting a police station.

The office also looks into court caseswhich have been thrown out due to investi-gations taking too long, lost dockets or wit-nesses not subpoenaed.

Sustainable solutionsThe ombudsman looks to find systemic

failures and come up with sustainable solu-tions, Pikoli explains. For every complaintthe office validates the claims and approach-es the police station in question for “theirside of the story”.

“The majority of officers are good, law-abiding people who want to do their job well.There are only a few who are not diligent andtarnish the name of the police,” he says.

The ombudsman’s vision is to build a soci-ety in which there is trust and respect be-tween the police and the community, Pikolisays.

“If there is trust, crime will be reported.But this trust has to be earned. The policemust respect the community, and the com-munity must respect the police. Our visionis of a police service that is accountable,” hesays.V Complaints can be made about the police, trafficofficers and metro police in writing or an appointmentcan be made with the office. For more information,contact the ombudsman on 021 483 0669 or [email protected].

Chappiesalmost backon courseRepairs to the tune of R1.5m along Chappiesare progressing steadily.The provincial department of transport and

public works has said good progress is beingmade in repairing infrastructure on Chap-man’s Peak Drive after the wildfires inMarch. All repairs are expected to be complet-ed by the end of the year.Road signs and electrical infrastructure

have been repaired or replaced. Fibre-optic ca-bles at most of the look-out areas have beenreplaced, with some work still being done atthe Noordhoek end.The weather station system at the Noord-

hoek look-out areahas been replaced, commis-sioned and tested. The entire security camerasystem has been replaced and six of the sevencameras are working again.The irrigation system at the toll plaza has

been restored, but the plaza boardwalk stillneeds repairs.Current repairs have no impact on the flow

of traffic. However,motorists should be awarethat when it rains in winter the road will beclosed for safety.

Foilists have eye on prizeThree local foilists will be representing

South Africa in the upcoming Common-wealth Fencing Junior Championships andthe inaugural Commonwealth Fencing Ca-det Championships.The competition will draw participants

from 14 countries and will be held at theUniversity of Cape Town’s sports centrefrom Saturday to Friday next week.Foilist Alexander Collings (18), Robert

McGregor (19) and Faa’iq Gamieldien (17)are participating in the under 20s categoryof the competition.Patrick Collings, chairperson of Fencing

Western Cape, says the team is very excitedbut with the older ones it’s more about per-formance.“They have been to a lot of competitions

and they have been working hard, so thistime it’s about how they perform. This willbe a good gauge of how fencing is doing inSouthAfrica andwe believe theywill repre-sent us well,” he says.Alexander from Claremont saw the Fen-

cing Olympics on TV while in Grade 4 andit caught his heart.He says what he saw then activated some-

thing in him. “When I saw it on TV I wasso determined to try it out. It makes me sohappy that I have achieved so much at ayoung age and there is still more to accom-plish,” says Alexander.McGregor who hails from Constantia is

currently the top-ranked u.20 men’s foilistin the country. He has competed in five jun-iorworld championships and two juniorAf-rican championships and has been fencingfor 10 years.McGregor says that in having taken part

in the international and African juniorchampionships and being a seasoned com-petition he “does not plan on underestimat-ing the opposing countries”.

“We will be competing against the likesof Australia, Canada, England and Singapo-re, who have very strong competitors, butwe have a fighting chance and intend to per-form and perform well,” he says.MeanwhileGamieldien fromGrassyPark

only started fencing in 2005 and is currentlyfourth-highest ranked u.20 men’s foilist inSouth Africa.Gamieldien says his passion for the sport

started the moment he entered primaryschool.

He says the sport has opened doors forhim and he especially enjoys the travellingwhen competing internationally.“I have seen many different countries

since I started competing professionally.The fun part also comes when I meet newpeople and familiarise myself with the dif-ferent countries,” he says.“I have confidence thatmy teamand Iwill

bring home gold. Although we will not un-derestimate the competition, I know we arecapable of taking gold,” he says.

Robert McGregor, Alexander Collings, coach Misha Galukhin, and Faa’iq Gamieldien form thecore of the u.20 and senior national foil team who will compete against internationalcompetitors. PHOTO: CHEVON BOOYSEN

You can’t ‘buy’ housingEARL HAUPT

@EarlHaupt

The City of Cape Town has urged residentsnot to fall victim to housing scams whichhave been reported in some parts of the city.Benedicta van Minnen, mayoral commit-

tee member for human settlements, saysthat victims should report it to the police.“It has been confirmed that some resi-

dents have fallen victim to these scams andhave indeed ‘bought’ land or housing unitswhich were promised to them through theseillegal sales,” says Van Minnen in a state-ment.The City confirms that scammers, who

claim to be from the human settlements di-rectorate, have been operating with unau-

thorised documents which contain theCity’s official logo. It is alleged that once thepromised housing units or pieces of landhave been “sold”, the culprits disappearwith the money.“Residents must note that, should a per-

son qualify for a subsidy, they must not payany money to anyone to be placed on thehousing database or to receive a house.”

Update databaseVan Minnen urges applicants to contact

their local housing office to update their de-tails on the housing database so that theycan be contacted easily.“I also ask those who are not registered to

find out whether they qualify for a subsi-dised housing opportunity.”

FISH HOEK

Residents bookseat for policyNICOLE MCCAIN

@nickymccain

As the City Council considers a policy tomanage memorials across the city, Fish

Hoek residents are hoping for a policy togivememorial benches at the beach a boost.Cape Town’s naming committee recently

recommended the memorialisation policyto mayor Patricia de Lille, aiming to guidefuture decisions about new memorials andmonuments across the city.However, there is currently no policy

which guides the management of privatememorials in public spaces, says BelindaWalker, mayoral committee member forcommunity services and special projects.“In the absence of a formal policy, the ap-

proach has always been to respond on an in-dividual case-by-case basis,” she says.

MaintenanceThe use of public space for privatememo-

rials has raised some questions regardingrights and responsibilities, Walker says.“TheCity receivesmanyapplications and

needs to follow a transparent and equitableprocess in allowing any memorial struc-tures in public space. The benches requirecareful maintenance and oversight, bothdue to vandalism and the effects of being lo-cated in the coastal environment and theCity cannot accept responsibility for the on-going costs. And because some sites arevery popular, this can lead to a cluttered en-vironment,” she says.The need for a policy to govern memorial

benches along Fish Hoek beach and JagerWalk was highlighted during a site visit byward councillors and City officials last

month. They found a number of benches inneed ofmaintenance, as well as the need foruniformity.There has already been a call for all fami-

lies who have installed a bench to registerit with the City, subcouncil chairperson Fe-licity Purchase says. Although this tookplace severalmonths ago, not a single regis-tration has been received.Walker says there is no formal registra-

tion process.She adds that past requests were made ,

but the sport, recreation and amenities de-partment’s area management office has notreceived any further communication fromthe sponsors of these benches to assist withmaintenance.

EnjoymentFish Hoek Valley Ratepayers and Resi-

dents’ Association chairperson Allen Rose-Innes says in the early 2000s an “adopt abench” programme was instituted.“Money via annual contributions to the

‘adopt a bench’ fund was used for the main-tenance and painting of the benches. Unfor-tunately, this programme had a limitedlife,” he explains.The benches are an integral part of Jager

Walk, Rose-Innes says.“They add to the enjoyment of the com-

munity and visitors who frequent JagerWalk. We would not like to see benches be-ing removed due to poor maintenance.”The Association would welcome a policy

to manage the memorial benches and otherbenches along the stretch, Rose-Innes says.By the time of going to print, the City had

not commented on whether the bencheswould be covered in the policy.

Assaf Yechiel can boast that he started hiscareer path to bartending at five years old,when he mixed his first drink of cough syr-up and Oros.He is now a regional finalist in the Diageo

Reserve World Class Bartender of the Yearcompetition.The competition is considered the largest

and most prestigious event of its type, aim-ing to elevate the skill of bartending and settrends in the service industry worldwide.Yechiel, who works at Orphanage Cock-

tail Emporium in the city centre, will nowgo head to head with his counterparts fromGauteng andKwaZulu-Natal in the nationalfinals, to be held in Johannesburg from 14to 16 July.The competition is demanding, Yechiel

explains, with mixologists required to com-plete three challenges.“The participants will be pulling out all

the stops to be crowned champion. Expectto see mind-blowing serves and techniques,wonderful theatrics, outrageous flavourcombos and perhaps even a good story ortwo,” he says.While Yechiel names his signature drink

as tequila, he has also claimed a style ofcocktails combining a spirit, tea syrup andwine.But Yechiel’s secret weapon is curiosity.“It takes curiosity to train for something

like this; curiosity about ingredients, fla-vour combos, bar techniques, spirit knowl-edge, and just about anything that remotelycaptures you. It all entails a lot of research,”he says.The global finals are also set to take place

in Johannesburg and will bring a hugeboost to the local industry, Yechiel believes.“The country’s top bars have been gear-

ing themselves up for the competition,wherewewill be seeing themost influentialnames in the industry setting foot on ourshores. The exposure will be paramount tofurthering the South African bar scene,” hesays.

Cape Town’s Assaf Yechiel will go head to head with other mixologists in the national finalof a global bartending competition.

“Flower arrangement is about the wayyou feel. Your flowers must talk to

someoneand they shouldn’t feel sador lookunrealistic.”This is what Edith Rule, a follower of the

Ikenobo school of flower arranging, be-lieves. Rule was speaking at the Ikebanaand bonsai exhibition at the University ofCape Town Irma SternMuseumwhichwasheld last week.The flowers in the exhibition where put

up by her students in freestyle form ar-rangements.Rule believes flowers are the way people

communicate with nature.“By freestyle we mean these flowers are

able to do what you like them to do. Youmake them look the way you want. Makethem communicate. They must talk to you

about the seasons and they are an expres-sion of what’s happening. Flower arrange-ment is about how you feel, it’s a connec-tion between you andwhat is happening inthe world,” she says.Originally a Japanese concept, Ikebana

means living flowers and is the Japaneseterm for flower arranging. It had its originin Buddhism in China and Korea. Itbrought about, through the centuries, a re-fined artwhichwas originally practised bypriests and noblemen and in later centu-ries by Japanese in all walks of life. It be-came less formalised over more centuriesand is today practised by enthusiastic vol-unteers of many different nationalities.Rule adds that to do flower arrangement

properly onemust be aware of your chosenmaterials, their space and their surround-ings.“Some flowerswon’t dowell in the house

and some work perfectly on a coffee table.Just know and understand your environ-ment. This will allow your flower to talkto you the way you want it. Some flowersmight be too big for ahouse andmore suita-ble for a public space. Flower arrangementis a modern thought into a modern feeling.It’s away of communication and to expressyourself,” she adds.To create beautiful ikebana the selection

of different kinds of plant material de-mands an experienced eye and considera-ble technical skill in order to create a kindof beauty that cannot be found in nature.Thys Klem, exhibitor of the bonsai, says

one of his trees, a wild olive, is 40 years old.

Policy toimprovesafetyA new traffic calming policy, aimed at ad-

dressing a backlog of requests for speedhumps andwith a new focus to protect chil-dren on theirway to school, is being consid-ered by the City of Cape Town.According to a statement, residents are

asked to air their views on the new policy.Brett Herron, mayoral committee mem-

ber for transport, explains theCity receivesmore than 400 requests for traffic calmingmeasures each year.There is currently a backlog of 500 traffic

calming projects to the value of R30m.Counting among these are requests for

speed humps, raised pedestrian crossings,mini-traffic circles, road markings androad narrowing – all devices to force driv-ers to slow down on residential roads.“Over the past years, we have seen an in-

crease in the number of requests for trafficcalmingmeasures, which can be attributedto thedeterioration indriver discipline anda general disregard for the rules of the roadby all types of road user. Given the currentbacklog and the steady increase in re-quests, it has become necessary to revisitthe current regime. As such, a new policywhich seeks to prioritise the implementa-tion of these measures where pedestrians,and particularly children, aremost vulner-able at schools, parks and libraries is nowon the table.”He explains the purpose of the newpolicy

is to create a system that is financially sus-tainable, responsive to critical safety prob-lems on residential roads and that will con-tribute to work through the backlog withina reasonable time.Part of the new policy proposes that the

transport department implement trafficcalmingmeasures on roads next to existingschools as a matter of priority, with thebenchmark of at least 50 schools per year.It also proposes that ward councillors

may identify, motivate and fund trafficcalming measures in response to a provenhistory of accidents on a road or in re-sponse to a recent and very urgent incidentthat demands immediate intervention.The policy also makes provision for indi-

viduals or organisations to fund trafficcalming measures, subject to prescribedconditions.V Public participation on the new policy takes placeon Sunday 16 August. You can find the policy at yournearest subcouncil office or library or on www.cape-town.gov.za.

LEGAL DEDUCTIONS FROM SOCIAL GRANTS

The SASSA Payment Card

Which Deduction Is Legal?

How can SASSA assist social grant beneficiaries with illegal deductions?

Safety tips for all social grant beneficiaries:

one

0800 60 10 11

Western Cape Helpline @ (021) 469 0235 or 0800 60 10 11.

The South African Social Security Agency (SASSA), would like to provide communities with the

following information regarding social grant deductions:

The SASSA branded payment card, was introduced to allow social grant beneficiaries the convenience of

accessing their social grant anywhere and at any time. The SASSA payment card is a debit card and

allows for cash to be withdrawn from ATM's, purchases to be made from suppliers and legal deductions to

be made. The introduction of the SASSA payment card into the banking system unfortunately also

provided an opportunity for social grant beneficiaries to be exploited through unauthorized deductions.

Before the social grant is paid into the bank account of a beneficiary only deduction is allowed to be

made for a funeral policy, which may not exceed 10% of the total value of the social grant. This premium is

deducted by SASSA before the social grant is paid to the beneficiary and then paid over to the relevant

insurance company.

Once the social grant is paid into the bank account that is linked to the SASSA debit card, legal deductions

instituted by financial entities will take effect for purchases that were made ie: airtime, electricity, micro-

loans, credit instalments, policy premiums etc. Any disputes should be resolved directly between the social

grant beneficiary and the entity that instituted the deduction.

Social grant beneficiaries are requested to report any illegal deductions to the nearest SASSA

office/service point where they will be assisted to complete a claim form so that the matters can be

investigated. Alternatively beneficiaries can contact the SASSA call centre @ where

SASSA staff will record the relevant details and refer the matter for investigation. Where beneficiaries have

not authorized deductions or for their SASSA cards/account details to be used by others, the deducted

amounts will be paid back to them. This is usually done within a period of 3 working days. Should any

social grant beneficiary not receive the required assistance from a SASSA office or staff member this must

be reported to the office manager or the

• Do not to respond to SMS messages offering airtime, electricity and other services. By responding

to these messages, beneficiaries are actually taking on a "subscription" service and the amounts

will be deducted off the bank account through the EFT debit system every month.

• Do not use your SASSA payment card as security for loans and to purchase any financial services

products.

• Do not authorize deductions to be made against your card except for the one funeral policy

deduction that should not exceed 10% of the social grant value.X1Q9NXFW-QK070715

Planned growth in the traffic departmentis set to reduce offences and accidents.The City of Cape Town’s traffic service is

expecting to swell its ranks by over 120 newofficers in the next year.Over 50 traffic officer positions and four

supervisor positions have been approved,says JP Smith, mayoral committeememberfor safety and security. And there are evenmore in the pipeline.The City has made provision for the staff

appointments in the new budget.A total of 60 traffic officer posts still need

to be approved by the council based on aplanned business model and an additional20 traffic officers are expected to be recruit-ed to enhance the newly established trans-port enforcement unit.“The City of Cape Town’s traffic service

is under-staffed. Road safety has becomeone of the most important focus areas dueto the number of deaths and the huge finan-cial cost of traffic accidents,” he says.They are set to introduce a dedicated 24-

hour service, Smith explains.“The newmemberswill add to the visibil-

ity of the service and hopefully help to re-duce the number of offences and accidentson the roads. An additional benefit is the in-direct policing of other crimes,” he says.But the new traffic officers won’t be the

only addition to the service.A new system, which will use dashboard

cameras, is set to be rolled out by the endof next year, Smith says.“The cameraswould enhance the enforce-

ment of offences by recording the activitiesof the staff. This is something that is usedin other countries and has evidential valuein the courts to help with the justice pro-cess,” he says.

The South African nationaldarts championship is cur-rentlyunderway inJohannes-

burg until its conclusion on Fri-day.

The first national champion-ships were held in Cape Town in1993, which served as the platformfor Darts South Africa (DSA) to beformed through the unification ofall the darting districts and associ-ations in South Africa.

TheWesternCape is representedby four affiliated districts whichform the federation: Cape Town,West Coast, Cape Winelands andEden.

Cape Town Darts is made up ofnine associations, including two-time defending inter-districtchampion Peninsula Darts Associ-ation (PDA).

The other associations are: Ath-lone, Mitchell’s Plain, NorthernSuburbs, Ocean View, South Pen-insula, Southern Suburbs, Sti-kland and the Western ProvinceDarts Association.

The DSA tournament formatconsists of an inter-regional andinter-district four-a-side competi-tion in which players compete inboth doubles and singles play. Theinter-district competition has sev-en divisions.

Peninsula will be leading thecharge of the Cape Town teams inthe inter-district competition,where they will be chasing an un-precedented third title in a row.

They are unbeaten for the pasttwo years, having not lost a matchat thenational championship since2013.

TheWesternCapewomen’s teamtook national honours in the inter-regional competition last year,while the men’s team finished as

the runners-up in their division.Peter Bowers, manager of the

PDA men’s team, is confident thatthe team is ready to defend its na-tional title. Frank Avenant, LesleyBeukes, Jason Erasmus, ElroyDirks, Jason Hendricks, FranklynMiller, Sean Shaw andAshwin Ad-ams will be representing PDA atthis year’s tournament.

Avenant will also compete in theInternational World Darts tourna-ment inTurkey inOctober and rep-resent South Africa there.

Warren Hansen, Cape TownDarts’s transformation official andPDA’s vice-chairperson, echoesBowers’ optimism.

“The only challenger to thethrone is the Western ProvinceDarts Association.

“Western Province has fourplayers in the Western Cape DartsFederation team as well.”

Hansen also highlights top play-ers in the Cape Town district whocouldmakean impact in this year’sinter-district tournament: “Play-ers who are performing very welland are on top of their game in theregion are Wesley Daries andMar-thinus Grobelaar.

“These two gentlemen were thetwo top performers at the WesternCape Darts Federation trials. Bothplayers are from Cape Town Dartsandwill be representing theWPDAin the inter-district competition.

“The women who are perform-ing very well are Yolanda van Roo-yen from Cape Town Darts, whowill also be representing SouthernSuburbs Darts Association at thenational darts tournament, andMaxi Keet of the Cape Winelandsregion in Paarl,” he says.
