DISTRICT SIX

March on City ‘holdup’NICOLE MCCAIN

@nickymccain

About a thousand people are set tomarch to the mayor’s office tomorrow,frustrated about a lack of transparency

fromtheCityofCape indealingwithDistrictSix land.The District Six working committee

claims the City is “not transparent in itsdealings with the people” and keeps “sellingoff land to CPUT and other companies forprofit”, instead of building sustainable low-cost housing in the city.The City has a responsibility towards “the

people to make as much land available forrestitution purposes – and not only the deep-

ly disputed 42 hectares”, says ShahiedAjam,chairperson of theDistrict Sixworking com-mittee.“TheCity is primarily the custodian of the

vacant land in District Six and as such hasa duty. The Western Cape department of ru-ral development and land reform offices fallunder the watch of the City and both havebeen ‘dragging their feet’ in the land reformprocess for the last 10 years, thus giving peo-ple a sense of hopelessness and despair,”Ajam says.“Restitution is not at work in District Six.

It would appear that our dignity and heri-tage does not matter to the City.”Ian Neilson, mayoral committee member

for finance, says the redevelopment of Dis-

trict Six is primarily the responsibility ofthe national department of rural develop-ment and land affairs.“The City, the Western Cape government

and the department of rural developmentand land affairs have stood together in ourjoint determination to see the developmentof District Six proceed as soon as possible,”he says.“The City is in complete support of the de-

partment to unlock the development whichhas been held up by special interests for 20years.“It is now time for the development to pro-

ceed. The City and the department havedoneeverything inourpower to speedup theprocess and to prevent further delays while

at the same timebeing responsive to commu-nity and stakeholder inputs. In addition, thedepartment has opened a newprocess for ad-ditional land claimants.”Neilson believes it is “not correct or fair”

to create the impression that the City hasbeen amain cause for any delays, having re-leased available City-owned land to the de-partment in the area for restitution.The City has also provided a budget for all

the bulk services for the development andthe internal services for the current phase,Neilson says.Restitution in District Six has been “over-

whelmingly covered in fraud, inequity andinjustice”, Ajam claims.V Continued on page 2.

“Many elderly and frail people, after21 years of democracy, are still ‘sit-ting outside in the cold’ despite beingeligible for restitution. Many havedied without their rights having everbeen restored.Howcan theCity standby and allow all of this to happen?”Ajam says.“It is common knowledge by now

that restitution was never abouthousing schemes. It was alwaysabout having lost our ‘right in land’in apartheid South Africa and beingreturned to our land. Therefore resti-tution is free and people’s dignitymust be restored as soon as humanlypossible. Government has a duty to-wards the people in terms of the Con-stitution.”Themarch also aims to express dis-

pleasure over the lease of the GoodHope Centre to a film company, with-out “consulting with the affected peo-ple”, Ajam says.The lease agreement process for the

GoodHopeCentre has been reactivat-ed and the City is currently conduct-ing a public participation process,Neilson says.The Good Hope Centre has been

booked from July to December for afilm company. Vendors were givenmore than four months’ notice in or-der to look for alternative venues, hesays.“The City has committed to assist-

ing long-standing tenants of the GoodHope Centre to find alternative ve-nues for their events that were nor-mally held at the venue. TheCity’s as-sistance comprised finding othersuitable City-owned venues aswell asfinancial support for either public orprivately owned venues, where thecosts of alternative locations weredisproportionate to the preferredvenue should that be required.“The requirement was that all ap-

plications have to be lodged with theCity’s events office at least 120 daysprior to the event, to be able to be con-sidered for financial and non-finan-cial support,” he says.

The baroque chamber orchestra CamerataTinta Barocca will feature award-winningSouth African flautist Liesl Stoltz in a pro-gramme of two of Joseph Haydn’s Londonsymphonies on Wednesday 11 November.The symphonies chosen are Symphony

No. 94 in Gmajor, “The Surprise”, and Sym-phony No. 104 in D major, “London”.Stoltz has studied the flute with Eva Ta-

massyat StellenboschUniversity since 1989.At the age of 16 she won a scholarship to at-tend an orchestral course in the UnitedStates.Shigenori Kudo offered her a scholarship

to study with him at the Ecole Normale deMusique de Paris: Alfred Cortot in Paris.V The concert will take place at St Andrew’s Presbyte-rian Church on Somerset Road at 20:00. A pre-concerttalk will take place at 19:15. Tickets are R110 each.

Security in theCompany’sGardens has re-ceived a boost after theCity of CapeTown

installed CCTV cameras and additionallighting.The project is in partnershipwith theCen-

tral City Improvement District (CCID).CCTV cameras have been installed in the

area, with four situated inside the gardensand four situated along Government Ave-nue, which is used as a popular pedestrianwalkway until late at night.These camerasare linked to theCity’s own

CCTV network via the Cyclops controlroom.Additional street lamps have been in-

stalled in the Paddocks – the grassed areaabove the art gallery and opposite the mu-seum – which has now become much saferat night.More lights have been installed alongGov-

ernmentAvenue and the public lighting sec-tion in the City’s electricity services depart-ment ensures that the lamps are in goodworking order.This is in addition to the existing lighting,

whichhas beenwelcomed, especially duringdark winter mornings and evenings.There are currently plans in place to in-

stall even more lighting in the gardens aspart of the ongoing efforts to create a safeand secure environment for visitors.The City parks department has employed

private security guards to patrol the Compa-ny’sGarden on a daily basis, both during theday and at night.To beef up the number of security guards

on patrol, CCID security personnel also pa-trolGovernmentAvenue. Thehighpresenceof security staff has helped to deter crimeand the well-informed guards also assisttouristswith route and general information.Themanager for safety and security at the

CCID, Muneeb Hendricks, says the revitali-sation of the restaurant area in the Compa-ny’sGarden is also enticing increasingnum-bers of people to visit this city centre asset.“This results in the space being more pop-

ulated, increasingly eliminating the oppor-tunity for would-be criminals to commitcrime,” he says.

KLOOF STREET

Library seeks readersNICOLE MCCAIN

@nickymccain

Kloof Street Library is looking to encour-age more visitors.The facility is in the process of carrying

out a survey to get residents’ opinions onnew hours, in a bid to increase the numberof feet coming through the door.Membership at the library is falling due

to a lack of parking around the facility, a re-cent report by the City’s library and infor-mation services found.The report cites a lack of nearby parking

as one of the reasons the membership num-bers dropped in the third quarter of the lastfinancial year – from 92 in the previous yearto 52.The circulation numbers at the library

dropped from 11 300 to 10 450.The library is now considering changing

the openinghours and swoppingWednesdayafternoons (when the library is closed) withFriday afternoons (when there is highertraffic congestion in theareaandaccessibili-ty is more difficult), explains Belinda Walk-er, mayoral committee member for commu-nity services and special projects.“Increasing the number of library mem-

bers is important and, to this end, the KloofStreet Library is planning a membershipdrive at thenearbyPalmhof shopping centrein early January,” she says.The reality is that, at present, there is very

little that can be done to create more park-ing, as there simply isn’t additional spacenearby, Walker explains.“While parking in the area is limited, pri-

vate car usage is not the only means of ac-cessing the library. Many residents in thearea walk to the library or use public trans-port. There is a MyCiti bus stop very close

to the library, about three shops away,” shesays.Another initiative to encourage member-

ship is the tea garden on Fridays, which isrun by the Friends of the Library, Walkersays.“The modern public library is more than

just a space where residents join the libraryand take out materials on their cards. TheKloof Street Library is utilised by a number

of elderly people living in the area whowalkto the library to socialise and read newspa-pers. Youngmothers love to bring their littleones to this library and sit on the couch andread to them. Students and pupils also usethe library to study,” she says.“It is a well-loved library for those in the

community who make use of it. It has aunique atmosphere which even strangerswho visit the library remark on.”

New hours may be on the cards for the Kloof Street Library in a bid to boost membershipnumbers. PHOTO: NICOLE MCCAIN

Colourful kites aoneday displayMAGRIET THERON

@magrietron

Spectacular kites, like a 30m worm and afamily of octopi designed by Parow kite

maker Ian Islip, adorned the skies of Muiz-enberg at the 21st International Kite Festi-val on Saturday.

Kiters from four countries (South Africa,Germany, the Netherlands and the UnitedKingdom) showed off their colourful crea-tions at what was supposed to be a two-dayfestival with kite-making workshops, com-petitions and a mass fly.

But the host and beneficiary of what hasbecome Africa’s biggest kite festival, CapeMental Health, suffered a major financialblow on Sunday when gale-force winds andheavy rains led to the cancellation of thesecond day of the festivities.

Cape Mental Health’s deputy director,

Vimla Pillay, says because of the suddenchange in the weather an anticipated in-come of at least R300 000 has been lost. Thedecision to cancel followed the event safetyofficer’s directive.

The funds raised at this annual event areused to help uplift the lives of children andadults affected by mental disabilities byproviding vital mental health services.“TheKiteFestival is our biggest fundrais-

ing and awareness event of the year.Wehada wonderful day on Saturday,” says Pillay.Cape Mental Health is South Africa’s old-

estmentalhealthorganisationandhasbeenproviding mental health services to adultsand children in disadvantaged communi-ties in the province for 102 years.V For more information visit www.capemental-health.co.za, contact Cape Mental Health on021 447 9040 or [email protected] or follow @Cape-MentalHealth and @CTKiteFest on Twitter.Kellen and Mika Hoad from St James helped kiter Mari Ware-Lane from Brackenfell launch her

SEA POINT

Art may stay for longerNICOLE MCCAIN

@nickymccain

Some of residents’ favourite pub-lic artworks on the Sea Point

Promenade may be set to stay.Ward councillor Jacques Weber

has submitted amotion to theGoodHope subcouncil proposing thatsome of the art projects remain inplace for another year.When the Ward54 public art

project began over 3 years ago, itwas established as a temporary artproject, Weber explains. Art pieceswere installed in various publicspaces in the ward for a period ofsix to 12 months.A call for artists to submit pro-

posals that promote new and inno-vative ways of thinking about artin public spaces was made in mid-2013. Hundreds of proposals werereceived and a committee consist-ing of a diverse group, including

landscape architects, curators,city planners and active citizens,decided on the final artwork thatwould be installed.Funding for the project came

predominantly from the ward allo-cation budget, with an additionalcontribution from the City of CapeTown’s arts and culture depart-ment.The project was endorsed as a

World Design Capital 2014 project.Some of the pieces have been,

and continue to be, a firm favouritewith locals and tourists. They alsoadd an extra dimension to the up-grades being carried out along thePromenade.Weber has proposed that three

pieces be retained for anotheryear, to allow for new visitors tothe ward to appreciate “a greatpublic open space and gain truevalue from seeing great pieces ofart”.

One of these will be the rhinoproject, which aims to createawareness of rhino poaching.Created by artist Andre Carl van

der Merwe for the public artproject after feeling a “sense ofhopelessness” about rhino poach-ing, the installation allows visitorsto walk up to the viewing point. Itis made to seem like a gun cross-hairs, and allows visitors to seethat several pieces of sculpturemake up a rhino.The idea is that instead of seeing

the carnage as “history”, visitorsrather see the impact as currentand form the idea that while theyare walking, enjoying the sunsetthere could be a rhino dying at thatvery moment, Van der Merwe says(“Art project to stop poaching”,People’s Post, 24 July 2014).The art benches and the art col-

ourblockmuralshavealso been in-cluded in Weber’s proposal.

A motion is proposing thatsome outdoor artworks remainon the Sea Point Promenadeas permanent features.

It’s that time of year when men pack away their razorsand start growing – facial hair, that is.And while grooming your moustache to be the best it

canbe is the aim for thenextmonth, it’s vital to rememberthe reason behind the movement.The simple truth is that it’s not a competition to see

who has the biggest beard.The point of Movember, now an international annual

movement, is to create awareness of men’s health duringthe month of November.Originally to getmen talking about prostate cancer, the

movement has now grown to encompass testicular can-cer, mental health and physical inactivity.This year, men are being encouraged to get moving for

the entire month to tackle the latter.So stop looking in the mirror, round up your friends

and enjoy a friendly game of sport.And instead of bragging over your ’tash while having

a beer with the boys afterwards, take the time to talkabout your health issues.One in every 23 South African men will develop pros-

tate cancer in his lifetime, while testicular cancer re-mains the most common cancer in men.As many as 510 000 men die from suicide globally each

year – which equates to one a minute – and over threemillions deaths each year are attributable to insufficientphysical activity.Growing impressive facial hair is not enough – it’s time

to tell your friends why you’re growing a moustache.Instead of just admiring each others’ hair growth, it’s

time to dealwith the big issues: Share your personal expe-riences of stress, anxiety and depression and open upabout your struggles with weight loss.It’s time to talk about the fear you felt at visiting the

doctor and encourage each other to get regular medicalcheck-ups.

Privileged classmade smart choicesLast week’s editorial comment (“Privi-lege”, People’s Post, 27 October) refers:The so-called privileged class got wherethey are by making smart decisions.One of the first was to elect leaders

who were competent instead of corrupt.The other was that they didn’t have

more children than they could providefor and those children had father figuresso that they didn’t have to join a gang totry and form an identity. This has led todrugs and violence. Are the so-calledprivileged to blame for that? Thisparticular social evil isn’t just a SouthAfrican problem but is a problem wherea society shirks its responsibility asparents.So now we come to education. Every-

one wants to be taught in his mothertongue. Unfortunately the mother tonguefor the majority is a recent phenomenonas it wasn’t until the 1820s that reverendMoffat of the London Missionary Societyactually created a written language fornon-white people.So more poor choices will eventually

lead to more poor people.As it is, the privileged class carry the

burden of providing RDP homes, freeelectricity and free water (why do youthink we pay so much?). Many pension-ers are being forced out of their homesbecause they can’t afford the rates thatgo up every year.What more are we supposed to do?And what a disaster our tertiary

education has become. When the minerswanted a 10% increase most peoplethought that was okay, but how are oureducators to get an increase if fees don’tgo up? The competent ones will findposts overseas and our universities willwither.Far too many people want to go to

university as they think this is the wayto a job where no actual work is in-volved. Traditionally, only a smallpercentage of people (the really bright)went to university; the rest got jobs.Unfortunately, over the past 20 years theeducation system has been a completefailure and the vast majority will onlyever be able to do menial tasks as theyaren’t able to read and write.

BRIAN HOARE,Plumstead

Neighbours can help on rubbish dayI have read the letter “Just minutesto clean up rubbish” by Lynn vanLeeve (People’s Post, 27 October) .May I take a moment to share what

we as residents do in Welcome Estate,Athlone.We have a very successful “bin

buddy” system, which basicallyentails: If you are working leave yourbin with a neighbour on his premises.Your neighbour who is home will

take out your bin on arrival of thecollection trucks and bring it onto hispremises until you get home.

This will alleviate unwantedvisitors in the road, leave zero messto clean up and avoid bin theft andthose characters who are there to seewho is home and who not. This willlead to fewer burglaries in the area.It is also a great way to get to

know who our neighbours are. Highwalls, electric fencing, big dogs, etc.are cutting off our neighbourlyinteractions.It is worth trying.

INGRID WYNGAARDAthlone

Guy Fawkes– worth it?Recently our neighbourhood has beendisturbed by the sound of firecrackers.This is an annual practice leading up

to Guy Fawkes Day on 5 November, aday that has its origin overseas and tomy mind has no importance in ourcommunities for a number of reasons.For one, already people and the poor

animals are traumatised by the sound offirecrackers as with some you cannotdifferentiate if from gunshots.Another reason on the day is that a

number of children stay away fromschool out of fear that mischievous oneswill smear them with old paint, eggs or,in some cases, dangerous objects betweentheir fingers. They have no regard if theyspoil your clothes or injure you.Last year I witnessed a young parent

with an axe in hand going after someyoungsters because his small child wassmeared as she was standing innocentlyat the gate.The morning after you notice a lot of

paint puddles and other markings on theroad, electric boxes and other council orprivate property, a complete eyesorewhich leads to many rands to “fix”.I know there is a Council bylaw that

prohibits these activities or the selling ofit and that it can happen at certainallocated areas but the law enforcementagencies are under-resourced, not proact-ive and simply don’t have the capacityfor it. People still sell these things atshops or stalls.I think the biggest factor in bringing

this down lies squarely at the feet ofparents.For example, we never bought our

children any toy guns or firecrackers.Admittedly, they are no angels but it wasa conscious decision as responsibleparents so that the positive practice canbe continued when they are parents.I am quite sure that if every parent

decides not to give in, we can lead amuch quieter life during this traumatisedtime.

SEAN CAMPBELL

After beatingGrassy Park Cru-saders 3-2 a few weeks ago,Westridge Yankees put in a

good performance against Silver-tree on Saturday to beat them 5-2at Groenewald Road sports field inSouthfield.Westridge took a 3-0 lead at the

start of the second innings throughhits by Casley Ripepi, Jude de Gee,Jesse Hugo and Veon Rix with Sil-vertree committing two errors.Silvertree bounced back in the

fourth innings withMiguelWilsonhitting in Marvin Mahoney (baseon balls) and Dayton Williams (hitby pitch) to bring the score 3-2 forWestridge going into the fifth in-nings.Westridge immediately extend-

ed its lead to 5-2 at the top of thefifth innings with hits by JaysonRipepi, Gwyn Petersen and CasleyRipepi. De Gee contributed with asacrifice bunt and Silvertree reliefpitcher Dean Jacobs did not helpby hitting two Westridge hitterswith his pitches.A combination of consistent

pitching, good hitting (seven hits),some skilful base stealing (five intotal) and effective bunting epito-mised the collective efforts fromWestridge.Jayson Ripepi (5 Inn, 23 BF, 2 H,

3 BB, 1 HP and 3 K) started for

Westridge Yankees in the absenceof preferred starter Luwayne duPlessis and was supported by hisbrother Kyle Ripepi (4 Inn, 14 BF,1 H, 1 BB and 3 K) who pitched thelast four innings. Petersen andCasley Ripepi (both 2 for 5) contri-buted well with the bat.

Roberts on moundSilvertree surprised when it

started with Anrich Roberts(4.1 Inn, 22 BF, 5 R, 5 H, 1 BB, 1 HPand 2 K) on the mound but he hadto be relieved by Dean Jacobs(2.2 Inn, 14 BF, 1 H, 2 HP and 6 K).Jacobswas also relieved byDaytonWilliams (2 Inn, 6 BF, 1 H, 1 HP,1 K).Silvertree only accumulated

three scattered hits.

Mallett putts his way tonational amateur finalBillMallett fromClaremont showed a spirit-ed display of skill at the Cape Town regionalqualifier of the 21st World Amateur GolfersChampionship and secured his place in theSouth African final.The third and final round of the regional

qualifier was filled with excitement as ama-teur golfers prepared for a competitive timeat the Mowbray Golf Club.Mallett made his mark on the day by fin-

ishing in awell-deserved second place in the16-20 handicap group on an impressive 75nett score.His sights will now be set on the national

Too close to call for Killarney this weekendADRIAN PHEIFFER

With several championships still to bedecid-ed, the tension at Killarney is mounting asSaturday’s final round of the popular Wing-field Motors-sponsored Power Series drawscloser.Table View driver Paul Simon is one of

thosewhose chances are balanced on a knifeedge. The reigning Bold Marine GTi Chal-lenge titleholder, Simon had his lead in thecurrent series slashed when he had to settlefor third place in his class in the previousround.However, he still holds a narrow 4-point

advantage over Zakkie Hendricks withCraig du Toit further back in third place.With two drivers tied in the lead, the Mut-

luBatteriesClassicCarSeries is evencloser.Despite competing in different classes Trev-or Momberg (Ford Capri) and Herman deKock (Ford Escort) are level with 45 points.Dawie Joubert is every Killarney fan’s

current hero after his magnificent recentperformances. During last month’s nationalExtreme Festival meeting, the Lotus Exigedriver took on the visiting Charl Arangiesin his multimillion rand V10 LamborghiniGallardo. Joubert actually passed the Italiansupercar in the KTM corner before being

Cycling enthusiasts can look forward tofour days of top racing with this year’s SAOmnium Track Championship, an inter-provincial and Grand Prix event at Afri-ca’s largest indoor cycling complex, theBellville Velodrome, from tomorrow toSunday.

The Pedal Power Association (PPA) ex-tended a helping hand to Western Cape Cy-cling by coming onboard as sponsor for thechampionship, followinganurgentplea forfunding help in the lead-up to the event.

Some 150 cyclists are expected to partici-pate, including regional teams from Gaut-eng, the Free State, KwaZulu-Natal and theEastern Cape, as well as a large turnout of

local riders.“Western Cape Cycling is delighted that

the Pedal Power Association has steppedupas theprimary sponsorof theOmnium,”says Corné Bence, chairperson of WesternCape Cycling.

The Western Province Cycling Associa-tion, regional body for cycling in CapeTown and organiser of the track champion-ship, sees thePPAasakeypartner indevel-oping cycling in the region.

“The PPA is committed to promote cy-cling and the interests of cyclists,” saysPPA chairperson Steve Hayward.

“Although a large portion of our focuslies with recreational cycling and cycling

advocacy, we are really happy that we canassist competitive cyclists in this way,” headds.

“We wish Western Cape Cycling successwith the Omnium and championship andlook forward to seeing some great racingon the track.”

An omnium consists of multiple races.The omnium was reintroduced into theWorld Championship as a five-race formatfor men in 2007 and for women in 2009.

In 2010 the omnium was changed by theUCI to include an elimination race whilethedistances of the eventswere lengthenedto favour endurance cyclists.

Since last year, the omnium consists of

the scratch race, individual pursuit, elimi-nation race, time trial, flying lap andpoints race.

Participants receive points for eachevent, with the winner of the omnium be-ing the rider with the highest total numberof points at the end of the whole champion-ship.

Track events have recently attractedmore than the usual road riders, who seeit as an opportunity to improve their form.

Spectators are welcome to attend any ofthe races and entrance is free.
