SEA POINT

Mayor torenamelibraryNICOLE MCCAIN

@nickymccain

Sea Point Library will take onits new name this week, fol-lowing an official ceremony.

Mayor Patricia de Lille will offi-cially rename the library in hon-our of the late Colin Eglin duringa special ceremony onThursday 21April.

The renaming proposal was sub-mitted to the City of Cape Town’sNaming Committee by a Sea Pointresident in 2014.

The proposal was supported by230 other residents. Eglin’s familyalso showed support for the renam-ing, along with local Ratepayers’Associations (“Name change for li-brary?”, People’s Post, 21 October2014).

Eglin was born in Sea Point in1925 and was a former Member ofParliament and a founder memberof the Progressive Party.

He represented the Sea Pointconstituency in the National Par-liament for 33 years.

Local representativeEglin was elected chairperson of

the Democratic Party’s parliamen-tary caucus before his death on 29November 2013.

Following the request for the re-naming of the library, a public par-ticipation process was undertak-en.

After this, the Naming Commit-tee recommended thename change

to the City’s executive mayor forapproval. Council approved the re-namingof the libraryat the councilmeeting on 29 May last year, ex-plains Brett Herron, chairpersonof the City of Cape Town’s NamingCommittee.

National recognitionThe Western Cape Government

bestowed on Eglin the Officer ofThe Order of the Disa in 2004 andin April 2013 he received the Na-tional Order of the Baobab (silver)from the National Government forserving South Africa with excel-lence and for his dedication andcourage in fighting for the princi-ple of equality for all South Afri-cans.“The renaming proposal is com-

pliant with the City’s Naming Poli-cy which states that notable peo-ple, freemen and residents whohave received honour of the high-est kind can be considered,” Her-ron says.

“Freemen andresidents whohave receivedhonour of thehighest kind canbe considered.”

SLAVE ROUTE CHALLENGE

Honour heritagestep by stepEARL HAUPT

@EarlHaupt

The annual Slave Route Challenge whichsees runners being taken on a route that

encompasses an array of South Africa’smost historical sites, has become a favour-ite on the calendar of novice and elite run-ners alike.The race, taking place on

Mother’sDay (Sunday 8May),however has a much deeperand more personal meaning,says event spokesperson Fati-ma Allie.

Havingbeenborn in theBo-Kaap, Allie was raised inWalmer Estate and went toschool in District Six and is aself-professed defendant ofthe Cape Malays.“When it comes to the Slave

Route Challenge itself, welook at our ancestors whocame from Indonesia, Javaand Malaysia. They were theones who came with all theskill. They were the builders.So my ancestors were not slaves per sé, myancestors were exiled from Indonesia to theCape,” says Allie.She goes on to say that because the slaves

were forced to work and interact with otherlabourers brought to the area, that is howall the cultures started to mix and that asa result started to weave the fabric whichmeshes South Africa’s rich history.“If you look around, the oldest standing

building is the Castle of Good Hope. TheCastle of Good Hopewas built by the slaves.You look at City Hall and the Grand Parade,all of these iconic and old places and struc-tures in Cape Town were all built by theslaves. Then you realise that there are so

many historical sites throughout CapeTown that people did not even know of,”adds Allie.Besides the historical aspect the race af-

fords itself to, Allie says that there is anamazing atmosphere of togetherness onrace day. “It is the spirit ofUbuntu that youfeel. You will see a grandmother who has

never ever walked (in anevent) in her entire life. Sheis now walking the 5kmwith her grandchildren be-cause her daughter and herhusband are going to berunning the 10km whiletheir teenager is runningthe 21km, so this is a familyevent. It is about peoplecoming together from allwalks of life, all religiousdenominations.”Allie reminded those

who still wish to partici-pate in the 21km race needto enter onlineno later thanSunday 24 April. She con-firmed that there will stillbe opportunities to enter

the other three events (5km fun run/walk,10km run and 10km big walk) on Sunday 1May as well as Friday 6 and Saturday 7Mayat Cape Town’s City Hall.“Come and explore this whole journey of

the Slave Route Challenge where you runthrough the Castle, District Six, and Gar-dens, through the Bo-Kaap and the SeaPoint area and back onto the Grand Paradewhere you can see the beauty of Cape Town.What other country can you stand on theGrand Parade and look to see Table Moun-tain, Devil’s Peak, and Signal Hill and thenyou see Table Bay? Show me another placethat is as perfect as Cape Town,” says Allie.V To enter visit www.iamrunningfor.co.za

GARY VAN DYK@gvdcapejazz

Former District Six residents are tired ofpromises and want action in their questfor restitution for their forcible removalfrom the area in the 1960’s.At a meeting hosted by the District Six

Working Committee (D6WC), held on Sat-urday at the Blackpool Sports Club in SaltRiver, the hall was packed with peoplefrom different historically disadvantagedcommunities.They came to hear how urban restitu-

tion should be approached and imple-mented by all the relevant stakeholders ina holistic fashion, starting with the heal-ing process.Some of the important guest speakers

included Diana Oliver from the Restitu-tion Foundation, Amelia September andMario Wanza of the Manenberg People’sForum as well as local councillor AchmatWilliams.Shahied Ajam, chairperson of the orga-

nisation, said it is important that commit-tee impress upon the minister of rural de-velopment and land reform, GugileNkwinti; theCity of CapeTownand all rel-evant stakeholders to develop the entire30 hectare vacant land in District Six im-mediately and simultaneously, startingwith the third phase which is currently inprogress.“The idea is to build as many four-story

apartments to accommodate as many res-titution beneficiaries,” he said.“The emphasis is on densification with

sufficient public spaces and greenery.”The urban park in Searle Street border-

ing Woodstock and District Six – as wellas the adjacent Trafalgar swimming pool– already serves as open public spaces inpreparation for those thousands of peoplecoming back to District Six, Ajam ex-plained.Another matter discussed was a digni-

fied and equitable financial compensationpackage for those notwanting to return orwanting alternate land.There is some urgent action to take

place with regard to the Good Hope Cen-tre, Ajam said.“We will legally oppose theCity of Cape Town in court for closing thedoors of the Good Hope Centre to the pub-

lic three weeks ago when the City votedunanimously to lease it out to a foreignTVcompany for the next two years.“The committee and its coalition part-

ners launched an urgent application tocourt last week,” explained Ajam.Also discussed was the need to identify

state-owned land within the city periph-ery for those who cannot be accommodat-ed in District Six.“Urbanisation is rapidly increasing and

everybody has a right to the city especial-ly those who were previously evicted anddispossessed during the apartheid era,”said Ajam. “Integration in the inner-cityspace is paramount. The walls of racialand spatial segregation can be brokendown in District Six.”Members also passed a unanimous reso-

lution to the effect that the referencegroup (who represent the approximately1000 beneficiaries who claimed between1995 to 1998), be fused with the D6WC andform one entity that will speak with onevoice for all the people.The D6WC has a mandate to represent

over 300 families and is already a legallyregistered entity with the Department ofTrade and Industry as well as with the In-tellectual Property Commission.Finally the D6WC, in addition to assist-

ing the people of District Six, also assistmany other previously disadvantagedcommunities with their respective resti-tution claims in areas like Ndabeni, Pine-lands, Constantia, Goodwood, NewlandsClaremont and Simon’s Town.“To push the envelope even further the

D6WC is planning a major march to par-liament during July to create an aware-ness to local, provincial and national gov-ernment that the people are serious aboutdignity restoration and coming back tothe city, sooner rather than later,” saidAjam.“It must not come to a point where, be-

cause government is stalling unneces-sary, that the people will start to occupythe vacant land in District Six soon andbuild their own make-shift houses whilewaiting for the powers-that-be to make uptheir minds.The people are gatvol of wait-ing for over 21 years now.”V For more information about the committee call021 801 8437 or email enquiries@district6wc.co.za

CBD

Broad opportunitesNICOLE MCCAIN

@nickymccain

A broadband network in the in-ner city is allowing businesses

to function better.The City of Cape Town has in-

vested R1.7bn into the creation ofits fibre-optic municipal broad-band network, a pilot project cur-rently on the go in the CBD.

This project is enabling the pri-vate sector to leverage off the samenetwork from a wide choice of com-petitively priced service provid-ers, according to a recent report ofthe Cape Town Central City Im-provement District (CCID)’s ‘Thestate of Cape Town central city re-port: 2015 in review’.

The report, published annuallyby the CCID as a summary of theinvestment climate in the CBD,highlights information as provid-ed by the City’s telecommunica-tions branch, the overseers of thenetwork roll-out.

The R1.7bn is being investedover a seven-year period, primari-ly to connect the City’s own andWestern Cape Government’s build-ings and facilities.

“The roll-out places the CBD ona par with other internationalCBDs where affordable, fast broad-band connectivity is a given,” saysRob Kane, chairman of the CCID.

This will enable commercial op-erators to use existing infrastruc-ture to provide high-speed fibre-op-tic services to tenants in commer-cial properties.

By the end of June 2015, 290 gov-ernment buildings had alreadybeen connected across the metro,along with 38 connections rolledout to private buildings – of which35 in the Cape Town CBD.

As of this week, that number hadalready been expanded to a further14 buildings, bringing the total inthe CBD to 49 private buildings.

The pilot project will ultimatelysee the City installing a cable to ev-ery building in the CBD, so thatwhen a request for a fibre-opticpair allocation is received, it canbeprovided immediately.

“Our reputation on internetspeeds in general in South Africahas not been great. Compared tooverseas our speeds have been no-toriously slow, so this has certain-ly been one of the factors that busi-nesses consider when they thinkabout being based here in the firstplace,” says Kane.

Businesses in general are becom-ing more and more reliant on theinternet to do business, so fastspeeds at affordable rates – particu-larly as businesses face tough eco-nomic times – are extremely im-portant to keep their operatingcosts down, he explains.

“The City’s roll-out of its fibre-optic municipal broad networkacross the entire metropole is a re-al game-changer for Cape Town.And for us in the CBD, because theCity is conducting its pilot projecthere in terms of providing lines toprivate buildings at the City’s costand thus enabling the private sec-

tor to leverage off its network, itchanges the online environmentfor our CBD business communityentirely.”

The pilot project is the result ofthe City’s network infrastructurehaving been designed as “open ac-cess” enabling multiple networksand service providers to use it – un-like a privately owned cable con-nection which is for the use of oneservice provider only.

Once the City’s municipal cablehas been installed, multiple com-mercial operators can provide ser-vices at a speed of 1Gbps to a build-ing’s tenants – given tenantschoice, encouraging competition,improving services and drivingprices down.

“We believe that the most impor-tant thing this network will do forbusinesses in the CBD is that – irre-spective of whether the business isa start-up sharing working spacein the East City or a high-end cor-porate in a premium grade officeproperty – it will give everyone thesame opportunity to access thesame fast speeds and choice of com-petitive service providers,” Kanesays. “This type of internet con-nectivity has only really beenavailable to date for those leasingoffices in high-end office parks.”

CBD buildings in the pilotproject can be connected to theCity’s network infrastructure oncea service provider asks the City’stelecommunications brand to leasean access fibre to it, and the build-ing owner has given permission.

Hundreds of competitors em-braced “The Grind” at HillcrestWine and Olive Farm over theweekend.

The inaugural event attractsproper athletes, corporate fun-seekers, fitness enthusiasts andrun-of-the-mill adventurers tocomplete an obstacle course.

There were different categoriesthat varied from 1km to 8km– some containing seven obstaclesand others 30.

Splashing, running, climbing,hanging and pulling were justsome of the copious grinding thatwill undoubtedly become biggerand better, year on year.

Drop in informaltrading baysNICOLE MCCAIN

@nickymccain

After four years of waiting, an informaltrading plan has been approved for Sea

Point.In 2012, the Sea Point CID requested the

process of establishing a trading plan forMain and Regent roads to be initiated andthat it dealswith the implementation of uni-form and aesthetically appealing tradingstands, the restriction of trading times andguidelines for the type of goods or servicesto be sold, CID chairperson Heather Tagerpreviously told People’s Post (Sigh of relieffrom vendors, 15 May 2014)The amended Sea Point Informal Trading

Plan sees a reduction in the number of in-formal trading bays from 29 to 25, says Gar-reth Bloor, Mayco member for tourism,events and economic development.“The reason for the reduction is that a few

of the current existing informal tradingbayswerenot inuse due to a lackof econom-ic viability. Over the years the pedestrianmovement patterns have changed, whichhad an impact on the economic viability ofthese trading bays,” he says.Some bays were relocated to areas where

the pavement space could better accommo-date trading bays, Bloor says.“The construction of the MyCiTi bus sta-

tion along Main Road had an impact on thelocation of some of the trading bays. At Ad-elphi Centre, the trading bayswere reducedfrom three to two as provisionwasmade forthe traders to relocate into the area wherethe sidewalk was widened specifically forinformal trading to better accommodatetheir businesses. New spaces were pro-

posed on the sidewalk alongside Mr Priceas the pavement is wider to accommodatethe traders.”The amended Sea Point informal trading

plan forms part of the larger Subcouncil 16informal trading plan. The number of in-formal trading opportunities across thesubcouncil has increased from 430 to 551(“More stall space for traders”, People’sPost, 22 March).As stipulated in the Informal Trading

Plan, day traders will be able to trade be-tween 06:00 and 18:00 from Monday to Sun-day and night traders will be able to tradebetween 18:00 and 06:00 from Monday toSunday.“Informal trading plays a vital role in cre-

ating much-needed employment and eco-nomic opportunities. This sector is a cru-cial part of our economy and the City’s De-partment of Economic Development musttherefore invest in this sector so that it ben-efits both informal traders and the public.Not only does this sector provide the unem-ployedwith opportunities to generate an in-come, but it also affords residents an alter-native to established and traditional retailoptions,” Bloor says.Once an informal trading plan is ap-

proved by council and implemented, theCity monitors the demarcated sites to en-sure that traders comply with the City’s by-laws and within their permit conditions.According to the City’s Economic Per-

formance Indicators for Cape Town (Epic)report, 161 000 individuals (11,3% of the to-tal workforce in Cape Town) are employedin the informal sector. It is estimated thatwithout informal sector income, the pover-ty rate in the city would be 25,1%

LEGAL TALK WITH DENZIL

Following instructionOver the years I have been askedmany times whether an employercan dismiss an employee, if theemployee refuses to obey an in-struction that falls outside oftheir job description?

This has always been a trickyquestion as the employee’s job de-scription is not always clearlyand precisely defined in their em-ployment contracts.

It is a well-known fact that em-ployees have a duty to act in goodfaith at the workplace, includingthe duty of employees to be subor-dinate and to comply with the in-structions of the employer in re-gard to their duties and work.

Employers have, however, de-veloped job descriptions in orderto allocate certain responsibili-ties to certain employees and tocreate a framework to promote ef-ficiencies and to ensure accounta-bility. The question remains, towhat extent does this impact anemployee’s refusal to performcertain tasks which fall outsidethe scope of their job description?

In Noosi vs Exxaro Matla Coal(June 2015), the Labour Court ad-dressed the issue of insubordina-tion and confirmed an importantlegal principle in regard thereto.

The case involved an electri-cian who had refused to obey theinstructions of the senior fore-man – to cease the operation of aconveyor belt which was operat-ing in dangerous conditions. Theemployee was charged with, interalia, gross insubordination anddismissed. He referred the matterto the CCMA, where the commis-

sioner found that the employeracted appropriately and as a re-sult the dismissal was fair. Theemployee then took the matter onreview where the Labour Courtfound that the test for insubordi-nation is not whether the instruc-tions fall within the job descrip-tion of the employee, but ratherwhether the instructions werereasonable and lawful. The courtheld and supported the position.

Should it be shown that the in-struction was unlawful, it wouldbe the end of the inquiry. If it isfound that the instruction waslawful, the expectation is that theemployee, to whom such instruc-tion was issued, should have com-plied. It will have little, if any, todo with whether the instructionis related to the employee’s job de-scription because it will never bea justification for an employee torefuse lawful instructions merelybecause the instructions are nothis or her direct functions.

This has a two-fold lesson forboth the employer and employee:

. Employers should regularlyensure their employees’ job de-scriptions are accurate.

. Employees still have an over-riding duty of good faith to theiremployers, whether the instruc-tion falls within their job descrip-tion or not, and a failure to com-ply with instructions which arereasonable and lawful may be suf-ficient grounds for dismissal.V This column was contributed by DenzilJacobs, an admitted advocate with ex­pertise in commercial law.

LETTERS

Peace afterplanter upgradeWe live in Upper UnionStreet, Gardens, and havehad an issue with a plant-er, which is built outside ahouse, for many monthsnow.

It has attracted manyunsavoury characters – socalled “car-guards” whotend to sit there – and overtime it has resulted in theplanter becoming a den ofinequity.

Public drinking andresultant disorder (with thepossible criminal elementof drug selling) coupledwith urinating in it anddumping of refuse made itan unpleasant place to walkpast.

We have also felt threat-ened by these people andwhile we have managed totemporarily get rid of themon the basis that they weredrunk and disorderly –with help from the CID –they always return.

A decision was made bythe residents of the streetto clean it up. The planteris on council ground but

wasn’t erected by thecouncil. The council offeredto donate 13 Num Numplants.

We approached the CapeCadogan Boutique Hoteland their generosity hasbeen overwhelming. Notonly have they gotten rid ofthe ivy damage on the wallabove the planter, but theypainted and re-plastered thewall – all at their ownexpense. They planted theplants and have offered towater and maintain them.

Since this cosmeticimprovement the gather-ings and subsequentdisorder have declinedsignificantly.

This dedication from thehotel to improving ourenvironment is wonderfuland this letter serves tojust highlight what a greatbusiness they are.

We cannot as residentsthank them enough forhelping us improve ourstreet.

SEA POINT

Safety initiativegathers speedNICOLE MCCAIN

@nickymccain

The Sea Point, Fresnaye and Bantry BayRatepayers’ Association (SFB) plans to

acquire a rapid response vehicle to supple-ment its crime and grime initiative.The initiative is in its first phase, with

segway patrols launched in November lastyear. The first phase of the project coversBeach Road from Three Anchor Bay toSaunders, including the Promenade andLondon and Marais roads.The association needs to sign up another

25 flat blocks,with 1411 apartments in them,before commencing the next phase. Thiswas announced at the SFB annual meetingon Wednesday 13 April.It is anticipated that phase two will start

by the end of the year, says project co-ordi-nator Marco van Embden.

Once another 800 flats – making up 90%of the properties – sign up, the associationwill be able to acquire the vehicle, he says.The vehicle is necessary to supplement

the segways and to provide overview pa-trols of the area, as well as provide a rapidresponse to incidents, says Van Embden.Security patrols 24 hours a day (Streets

now patrolled 24 hours, People’s Post, 15 De-cember) increase security presence at criti-cal times, says the association’s coordina-tor, Toni van Eyssen.A fieldworker, Jantjies Booysen, has also

been appointed to complement the safetypatrols, with his salary funded by SFB andthe Mouille Point Ratepayers’ Association.He profiles the homeless in the area, ad-

dresses hotspots and assists homeless to ac-cess shelters. Booysen has successfully re-located three street people since the start ofthe year, says Van Embden.

er runners to complete the 30kmcourse through the streets ofKhaye-litsha, Mitchell’s Plain, Nyanga,Gugulethu, Manenberg, LavenderHill, Rylands, Langa and Wood-stock, passing police stations ineach area and ending at the RockGirl benches on Heritage Square inCape Town.Brave.RUN is inviting women,

girls, boysandmen fromall commu-nities to join in along the way, run-ning or walking for a few metres or

kilometres. Check points and waterstations will be at police stations ineach area, and transportwill be pro-vided at each police station to takerunners who need lifts into town.Baird believes the race sends a

message of support to all womenandgirls, nomatterwhere they live,letting everyone along the wayknow that they are not afraid, butunited.“We are hoping that the

Brave.RUN will become an annualevent. Rock Girls, trained as youthreporters and photographers, willfollow the run in an overland trucksponsored by Africa Travel Co, in-terviewing girls and women alongthe way about the conditions intheir neighbourhoods and the chal-lenges they face daily.”Cape Town is host to some of the

most beautiful runs in the world –from the Two Oceans Marathon tothe Cape TownMarathon, as well asextraordinary trail runs like theTa-ble Mountain Challenge.Elite runners, including Linda

Doke, have committed to runningthis event.“We have some of the most

beautiful places to run, but we al-so have the highest incidence ofviolence in theworldagainst girlsand women – our most beautifulcitizens.“For one day, let’s come togeth-

er to make the streets safe for ev-eryone, everywhere across CapeTown.”Baird says the race is an impor-

tant one for the girls they workwith.“Rock Girl was inspired by a

group of Grade 5 girls whoweren’t able to participate in theafter school running programmebecause of gang violence andabuse from older boys and men.This race demonstrates the girlsongoing commitment to makingtheir own communities, and all ofSouth Africa, safe for everyone.”V Contact Baird on 082 734 4569 oremail india.baird@gmail.com.

Rock Girl members pictured (from left) Mickayla Sauls, Tamsin Liebenberg,Megan Johnson, Linda Doke, Nazeerah Abrams, India Baird, Zoe Hendricks,Audery February, Amahn Heuwel and Theslin Liebenberg, are teaming up for theBrave.RUN to say enough is enough on gender based violence and abuse.

Steenbergdrives charityThe Steenberg Golf Club’s Ladies sec-

tion has set a solid benchmark at thestart of this year’s club competitions

for the Sanlam Cancer Challenge as theyraised R19 000 in the effort to support theCancer Association of South Africa (Can-sa).The Sanlam Cancer Challenge is South

African golf’s biggest charity drive in thefight against cancer and has teed off its 23rdyear at golf clubs around the country, withthousands of amateur golfers joining to-gether to try and beat the over R3.5m raisedlast year.From March to July, amateur golfers

around South Africa will take part in theirlocal golf club’s Sanlam Cancer Challengegolf days with the double aim of raisingmoney forCANSAaswell as trying to quali-fy for their respective regional finals.The winners of the regional finals, which

will be played from July to August, willthen qualify for the National Finals to be

played on both the Gary Player CountryClub and Lost CityGolf Club courses at SunCity from 9 to 2 October.And in this shared spirit of being proact-

ive in the battle against cancer, 48 golfersfrom the Steenberg Ladies section did theirbit to work together as “Wealthsmiths” forthe greater good of their community.“The SanlamCancer Challenge is a popu-

lar event on theSteenbergLadies golf calen-dar. There has always been overwhelmingsupport of this fundraising initiative atSteenberg asmany of ourmembers are can-cer survivors whilst others have lostfriends and familymembers to this illness,”said Di Brooks, Steenberg Ladies commit-tee member. “The Sanlam Cancer Chal-lenge represents not only an opportunity toraise funds for a worthy cause but also forourmembers to compete regionally and na-tionally. Steenberg members have histori-cally done well in the Regional Finals andlast year two of our members, Peter Terr-

blanche and Gwen Ortlepp,qualified for the finals, withGwen finishing second in theA Division nationally. It was afantastic opportunity for theseplayers to play at Sun City andto meet a number of interest-ing players from around thecountry.”The purpose of the Sanlam

Cancer Challenge is to raisefunds and awareness annuallyfor the fight against cancer. In2015, a total of 35 863 golfersplayed in 780 club competi-tions held around the countryin support of CANSA’s preven-tion programmes and patientcare support throughout theyear.V For more information visitwww.sanlamcancerchallenge.co.za
