development

opposed

DALEEN FOUCH

A proposal to build 213 houses plus a pri-

vate school for 1 875 pupils onHathersage

Farm in Somerset West is meeting with

fierce opposition.

Severalobjectors, including theHelderberg

Residents Action Association, have raised

concerns about the proposed developments

proximity to theLourensRiver andpossible

traffic implications, as it will face onto the al-

ready-burdened Gordon Road.

The213housesare in twogroup-housingde-

velopments of 30 units each and in a lifestyle

estate of 153 houses. The 52 ha property is

mainly zoned for agriculture and presently

has vineyards, orchards, a manor house,

workers cottages andavenue for events such

as weddings and conferences.

The Lourens River runs through the farm

andPeterFord,chairpersonof theHelderberg

Residents Action Association, is concerned

that further development on the banks of the

riverwill compound the typeof flooding expe-

riencedinAugustandagaininNovemberthis

year.

Thedevelopers,CombinedDevelopers, pro-

pose to leave a 45 mgreen belt from the centre

of the river as a buffer, but Ford says the flood

plainhas to be approachedwith caution.Our

rivers have to be cherished, especially the

LourensRiver,becauseof itsheritagestatus.

Fords other concern is the added traffic to

Gordon Road, ...especially with a school of

that size.Hesays the road isalreadyrunning

at capacity and in very bad shape.

Combined Developers applied in May for

the subdivision and rezoning of six of the

seven erven that make up Hathersage Farm.

The application includes a request to the City

ofCapeTown to allowhigher density develop-

ment than that currently stipulated for thear-

ea in the Somerset West Density Policy.

Ford says theHelderbergResidentsAction

Association will oppose this application, as

many residents in the area bought their hous-

es because of the rural character of the area,

and the application compromises this.

Stuart Pringle, chairperson for Subcouncil

8, says he has received several objections and

queries regarding the proposal.

He says Subcouncil 8 will only consider the

application at its first subcouncil meeting of

2014, after which it will be referred to full

council. The proposal is also undergoing an

Environmental ImpactAssessment (EIA)and

a draft scoping report is currently open for

public scrutiny.Residentshaveuntil 31 Janu-

ary 2014 to comment on the report, which is

available at the Somerset West Library or on

www.gnec.co.za.

The draft scoping report suggests that a

Traffic ImpactAssessment (TIA) and aFresh-

water or Wetland Assessment should be part

of the studies conducted in terms of the EIA

process. It vaguely suggests the possibility of

a bridge over the Lourens River, which will

allowHillcrestRoad tobe extended.Themain

access road to the site is proposed at the inter-

section between Cloetenberg and Gordon

Roads.

Combined Developers could not be reached

for comment this week.

DistrictMailestablishedthat twoof the larg-

er portions of the property are owned by a

close corporation called Stephan Holdings.

When we phoned the single member of the

CC for comment, he said he was in Switzer-

land and not willing to comment.

FOR THE LOVE OF CHRISTMAS: Cecilia Pestana (photographed) has for the past 37

years been carrying on a family tradition of building a Christmas crib made up of vari

ous characters, including Joseph and Marys trip to Bethlehem, the three wise men, and

Jesus playing with children. Growing up in Madeira, Portugal, she learnt this Catholic

tradition from her father. And every year since her 16th birthday she has, in the ad

vent period towards Christmas, built the display made up of characters depicting vari

ous Biblical scenes. Over the years she has collected countless ornaments, some bought

locally on the Grand Parade and others from Portugal many of which she has passed

on to her sons as they moved out of the house. This year her Christmas crib took about

three weeks to build. At night, when everyones lights are turned off and theres si

lence, Cecilia sits for hours, savouring the splendour of her hand work. Beautiful,

beautiful, she says smiling, with a nostalgic expression in her eyes.

Kommeroorbrandgevaarby

KaysKaravaanpark

DELIAH BRINKHUIS

Die brand verlede Donderdag-

aand by Kays Karavaanpark in

Strand het heelwat kwelvrae oor

die brandgevaar in die woonge-

bied laat ontstaan.

Volgens die Stad Kaapstad is agt

huise in die brand in puin gel en

is nog twee huise gedeeltelik beska-

dig. Drie mense is op die toneel vir

rookinaseming behandel, terwyl n

derde persoon geringe brandwonde

opgedoen het.

Van die kwelpunte sluit in dat die

kwessies is onder meer dat die wa-

terdruk in Kays nie sterk genoeg

asook die brandgevaarwat die bloe-

Volgens Marcel Strumpfer, eie-

naar van Kays Karavaanpark,

Volgens Strumpfer het heelwat

mense met die ontstaan van die

het dat die drukking van die water

redelik swak was.

Possiblemultiyear

tenders for Lights Festival

DALEEN FOUCH

Several possibilities to improve

the popular Somerset West

Lights Festival next year were

discussed at ameeting on Thurs-

day 12 December.

The meeting, between Stuart

Pringle, chairperson of subcoun-

cil 8 and officials from the City

of Cape Town, was the result of

the growing concern about the

quality of the Lights Festival.

The DistictMail reported last

week thatmany locals feel recent

festivalsaredull compared to the

extravagant events of the past

(Lights do not shine that bright-

ly in Somerset West any more,

DistrictMail, 12 December 2013).

According toPringle the possi-

bility of a multi-year tender as

well as the involvement of pri-

vate institutions and allowing

themtosponsorChristmaslights

were discussed.

Pringle says a multi-year ten-

der would enable contractors

whowin the tender to havemore

time to plan and promote the fes-

tival.

He says currently, the contrac-

tor only has about a month to

plan the festival.

Pringle says the meeting was

positiveandtheideaswellmet.

He said an alternative to a pos-

sible multi-year tender, is to

award the tendermuchearlier in

the year, ahead of the budgeting

process to allow for better plan-

ning. Apart from these propos-

als, the City is drafting guide-

lines for involvement with com-

munity initiatives and events,

such as the Lights Festival,

which will also stipulate which

departments are responsible for

which activities.

Pringle says the proposals will

nowbeconsidered for implemen-

tation.

I urge all contractors who

wish to tender for the festival to

have their paperwork ready,

says Pringle.

Safety tips for theoutdoors

Theholiday seasonhas arrived, andwith

it, endless outdoor fun.

During this time crowds of people flock to

beaches and engage in activities like hiking,

fishingandswimming.However, it isalso the

time when holidaymakers tend to lose their

sense of caution.

According toNigel Pepperell,National Sea

RescueInstitute(NSRI)Station9commander

at Gordons Bay, beach-goers should only

swim at beaches where there are life guards

on duty (look for the big red-and-yellow flag)

and in demarcated areas. Always obey the

life guards, and make sure to keep an eye on

your children when at the beach.

Pepperell also suggests that when fishing,

from a boat, you should always ensure that

someone knows precisely where you are at

all times and that the craft has the proper

safety equipment.

A special note for visiting anglers fishing

between Gordons Bay and Rooi Els:

The sea in that area is very dangerous, due

to the interaction between the cliffs and the

open ocean. This frequently results in ex-

tremely high waves, even on a seemingly

calm day. As a result anglers, are washed off

the rocks, often with fatal consequences.

Remember: If you find yourself in trouble

in the water, try to remain calm. Stick your

arm (preferably both!) in the air and wave,

make your movements as big and clear as

possible. This is an internationally recog-

nised distress signal and is guaranteed to

spur lifeguards into action.

In the event of an emergency, call 021 449

3500,whichisouremergency24hourcallcen-

tre. The emergency number is displayed at

all main beaches.

Keen hikers are implored to follow these

simple tips provided by The Mountain Club

of SA, Hottentots Holland section to ensure

their safety:

Prepare thoroughly Do your home

workbeforeyouset foot onanewpath.Check

a map (how long is the hike, where are the

inclines, water points, shade, etc.), check

your gear, assess your own and other hikers

fitness levels, and be realistic if you are able

to do it.

Always tell someone where you are go-

ing andwhen you intend to return, and stick

to what you told that person.

Always carry a jacket, hat and sun-

screen, nomatter what the weather forecast.

Leave the flip flops at home andwear the

right shoes. At least wear tekkies (trainers),

but best are hiking boots with a sturdy sole

and ankle support.

Carry enough water. For a day in the

mountains, youwill need two litres of water.

Keep a fully charged cell-phone with the

numberforMetroControl (0219370300)saved

on it with you. There are many areas that

dont have cell-phone reception, but still,

have it with you because if you have recep-

tion, it can potentially save your life and

make our job a lot easier. If you have one of

those fancy smart phones with built-in GPS,

find out how to transmit your position to

somebody else.

Donot deviate from the initial plans that

were made.

Never hike alone. A party of four is the

minimum recommended group size. If one

gets injured, the others can render some as-

sistance and find help.

Father and son drown at P Bay

A father and son from Mitchells Plain

drowned at Pringle Bay on Saturday.

According to Craig Lambanon, spokes-

person for the NSRI , their Gordons Bay

sea rescue volunteers were informed that

the men had been swept out to sea near

the Hangklip Hotel at about 09:27.

Lambanon said NSRI crews, joined by

the Emergency Medical Services (EMS)

and the police, responded to the call.

On arrival on the scene it was con-

firmed that a young man from Mitchells

Plainhadalertedbystandersat 09:02 toget

Lambanon added that the men were

caught in rip currents andwere swept out

to sea.

The bodies of both men were recovered

about 400 meters off-shore. They were de-

clared dead on the scene. Police have

Helderberg

residents

stick together

This year was for many Helderberg

residents one of the most dramatic

and eventful in years.

We experienced extreme shifts in

weather, unprecedenteddownpours

of rain, heavy snow falls, flooding

and devastating fires.

The summer was exceptionally

hot and long and the south easter

was relentless.

When winter did finally arrive it

was later than usual, but it struck

with a vengeance.

It was one of the coldest, wetest

winters ever experienced in theHel-

derberg.

Then just when we thought the

rain and winter weather was over

we had a downpour mid November

which flooded MediClinic Hospital,

businesses, homes and streets.

Helderberg residents not only en-

dured all of this they stuck together

and helped each other out.

This was especially evident dur-

ing the floods last month and after

the recent firewhichdestroyed elev-

en homes in Kays Caravan Park.

During the floods strangers, using

their own 4x4s, evacuated hospital

patients and elderly residents to

places of safety.

After the floods help was once

again on hand as Helderberg resi-

dents rolled up their sleeves to help

mop up.

Whenthe firedevastatedhomes in

Kays Caravan Park strangers

opened their homes and hearts to

people who had lost everything.

These unselfish caring acts by

strangers are rarely seen these days

- may they continue for ever more.

Merry Christmas to all our read-

ers and advertisers.

BabelseverwarringbySASSAkantoore indieStrand

Maandag 18 November was ek

opad na die naaste SASSA-kan-

toor in die Strand in verband met

my review, soos honderde ander

mense.

Daar gekom, was dit n Babelse

verwarring. Dit het my laat dink

aan n verhaal uit die Bybel; daar

was n baie groot verskeidenheid

van nasies en tale.

Die geraas daar binne was oor-

verdowend.Seniormense,oumen-

se, grootmense, kinders, kreupe-

les en mense in rystoele en op

krukke, almal besig om met me-

kaar te praat; almal het hulle eie

probleme om met mekaar te deel.

Telkemale moes die gehoor ge-

vra word om sagter te praat, want

die amptenarekondannie tenvol-

lekonsentreernie.Ekweetniehoe

dit moontlik is om al die mense te

helpnie,wantdieamptenareisnie

vir die volle dag beskikbaar nie.

Daar was letterlik honderde

mense. As jy nie gehelp kon word

nie, moes jy Maandag 25 Novem-

ber of die volgende dag terugkom.

Dit is wat met my gebeur het en

met talle andere.

Ekmag niemand vals beskuldig

of oordeel nie, want dit is teen my

geloof as Christen. Ek dink tog

daar kan baie meer gedoen word

om ons senior burgers meer tege-

moet te kom. Die amptenare werk

onder groot druk en hulle is ook

maar net mens. Ons waardeer en

is baie dankbaar vir hulle werk.

Nogtans voel ek ons senior bur-

gersmoetmetmeer respek behan-

del word. Ek vra vir voorstelle.

Daar was een dame met wie ek

gepraat het (n amptenaar), sy is

werklikbaiebehulpsaam,want ek

het ook gesien hoe die mense om

Citymust findaway to treat complaintswithmore sympathy

TheprojectedexpansionofSomer-

setWest will result inmore traffic

on roads originally planned and

designed for a smaller town. The

demand for traffic calming meas-

ures will no doubt increase pro-

portionally.

Onecannotbutsympathisewith

Mr and Mrs Hennie Meyer, who

are exasperated by their experi-

ence of denser traffic travelling at

high speeds in Gordon Road.

The Citys transport, roads and

storm-water department has the

responsibility of keeping traffic

flowing efficiently, but with due

regard to the safety of the public

at large.

It is understandable that a sys-

tem of evaluating the severity of

each problemhas to be devised, as

described in Cllr. Herrons reply

to the Meyers complaint.

Nonetheless, it is cold comfort

to be told the system disqualifies

their problem from prescribed so-

lutions and theymust live with it.

InacaringCity ithas tobepossi-

ble to listen to reasonable com-

plaintswithgreatersympathyand

where possible alleviate them.

In the present instance, im-

proved signage along Gordon

Road would be a start. Some signs

are obscured. The problem is real

and is likely intensify rapidly if

theprojectedHathersageFarmde-

velopment gets under way.

The residents of Gordon Road

are not alone.

There are several other impor-

tant roads in the town where resi-

dents watch uneasily as traffic

problems steadily increase.

The City, through its Council-

lors and officials, must devise a

more friendly and helpful way to

treat the citizens, it professes to

care for, than merely to withdraw

behind a rigid programme.

Cripplebeggarat traffic lights: Imacting like Leon

Schuster

With reference to the letter you published,

Please dont give money to beggars at traffic

lightsandstopstreets,21November, couldyou

please publish the following;

At 12:30 on Friday 22 November, I saw the

same very cripple guy with his bucket in

between the cars again. He came to my car,

not his lucky day.

Almost falling, so very cripple, he said,

Please give a cripple man somemoney. To

which I replied, you almost had people col-

lide their cars the other daywith your stupid

cripple act. I saw you running away that day

as well as for your taxi every afternoon at

17:00. There is nothing wrong with your

legs.

He suddenly stood up straight and said Im

acting like Leon Schuster, if the (swearing

terribly) wants to give me money, let them,

lucky for me. God will punish you for want-

ing to take my free money away.

I told him to get a job on which he replied

that hewill not go andwork like all the other

(swearword).Whymust he, if he getsmoney

for free?

Im writing this letter for the reason to in-

form the public what happened and what he

called the people giving him money. All of

you, tell him you know he is not cripple then

youwillhearitdirectly fromhim,maybethat

will stop you from helping this thief.

We give a donation to The Red Cross every

Christmas because we want to. People give

because of the guilt they feel. They are told

its for the blind, for the childrens homes,

for the aged, psychology practice etc. Just

wondering.

Footgear canbeproudof their helpful staffmembers

People are always very quick to complain

when things do not go 100% the way they

want to, yet are normally very loathe to pick

up a pen to say well done or thank youwhen

something good is done.

On Saturday I spotted a pair of shoes at

Footgear Somerset Mall which I had to

have! but in stepped the infamousMurphy:

Sorry we dont have your size but we will

tryand findyouapair. I leftmydetails think-

ing oh well nice try. How wrong I was.

In a nutshell, between Saturday afternoon

andthismorning, (Wednesday11December)

I have had constant phone updates from

storemanagerDirk and staffmembersDeon

andStacy culminating in thegreatnews this

morning that they had found my size and

had the shoeswith them in the Footgear out-

let.

This was not some super expensive high-

profit pair of shoes by anymeans, just a low-

priced pair of sneakers.

To Dirk, Deon and Stacy thank you for

your efforts and for delivering the most un-

expected and unusual customer service.

ToFootgear, youcanbeveryproud tohave

Boys journey tomanhood

Plunging more than 200 m

to the ground, tied only to

abungeecord, isnot forthe

faint of heart.

But by the time former

Somerset College learners

Frederick Bakker and Jesse

Townsend leap from the

BloukransBridge in theTsit-

sikamma Nature Reserve

they would have walked al-

most 800 km, and bungee

jumping 261 m will be less of

a challenge than before their

journey on foot.

Frederick and Jesse re-

cently completed their mat-

ric examsand set out on their

40-day journey two weeks

ago, starting at SomersetCol-

lege and ending when they

bungee jump from the

Bloukrans Bridge.

Theyareequipped withon-

ly basic hiking and camping

equipment, and the cell

phone and solar charger are

likely to be theirmost valued

items on the journey.

Frederick, who hiked the

Tsitsikamma trail with his

dad at the age of five, confess-

es thathehopestoget toknow

the beauty of the South Afri-

can landscape with this trip

but more importantly he

hopes that it will bridge the

gap between high school and

university preparing them

for adulthood.

Part of their journey will

also include a paddle along

the coast.

Theboys fathers andFred-

ericks youngerbrotherswill

join them later on in their

journey to hike the Outeni-

qua trail with them.

Jesse says he hopes their

journey, which is set to end

on 15 January, will create

memoriestobecherishedfor-

ever.

And when these two

friends finally start adult-

hood with the onset of their

studies at the University of

Stellenbosch on 22 January,

a stronger bond would have

perhaps been formed be-

tween them and they will

have a world of wisdom to

share with others.

GOING PINK: The team at Salon

Elan in Somerset West recently let

the colour pink go to their heads

and to the heads of their clients,

who wished to join them in raising

awareness about breast cancer.

Some clients simply dyed their hair

pink because they have walked a

road with cancer themselves and

others did so in solidarity with

friends currently undergoing cancer

treatment. Several ladies who

dared to colour a flash of pink in

their hair have come back for

more, saying they not only love the

colour lift it gives them, but it also

is a great conversation starter to

talk to other women about the con

dition. Salon Elan donated all funds

raised from this initiative to Helder

berg Hospice in recognition of the

care and support given to cancer

patients and their families. The staff

of Salon Elan who started the trend

December to give well

stocked maternity bags to

new mothers who had just

given birth. The contents

of the bags have been do

other visit to Macassar MOU before Christmas. In November we were able to drop a large amount of sup

plies for new mothers and babies at the dropoff points for those affected by the floods. WOMBS doulas

volunteer their time at Macassar MOU on a regular basis to support the women who labour there. Should

anyone wish to support the cause and donate anything a new baby would need is welcome to contact

Having played to a capacity

crowd of around 700 people pre-

viously in the Nature Reserve,

the Jesse Jordan Band is all set

to play the new year in on Sun-

day 5 January at the same ven-

ue.

What started as a dream and a

fledgling band under the guidance

of veteran musician and producer

Alex Power just over 13 years ago,

has evolved into the Jesse Jordan

Band: amusical expression of note

with three albums, fourmusic vid-

eos andhundreds of live showsun-

der their belt.

Their most recent album, titled

World Piece, features 12 tracks of

new and revamped hits and has

made quite a name for itself. The

first track, Be with you, went to

number one on 5FMand themusic

video did extremely well on

DSTVs music channel Mk89.

The Jesse Jordan Band is full of

energy and has been developing a

new sound that is continuing to

gain fans for the talented mem-

bers: Jesse Jordan (acoustic and

vocals), Hein Schultz (guitar and

backingvocals),LoganScott (bass)

and JP Crouch (drums).

The showstarts at 17:30 and tick-

ets are R50 for adults and R10 for

scholars.

There is no admission fee for

children under the age of five.

All proceeds of the concerts are

used to support conservation and

environmental education projects

at the reserve.

Tickets are available at the Na-

ture Reserve Information Centre

or on concert days at the gate.

The band was formed in 2007 when Fokof-

polisiekar took a hiatus, which offered two

Wyannd Myburgh the opportunity to bring

Van Coke Kartel to life.

Van Coke and Myburgh grew up together

in Bellville and have shared their love for

music from an early age. The band also in-

cludes Jedd Kossew (lead guitar and vocals)

and Jason Oosthuizen (drums). Van Coke is

on vocals and guitar and Muburgh on bass.

They provide the crowd with energetic, no-

nonsense rock music.

Thebandreleased their fifth studioalbum,

Bloed, Sweet & Trane on 4 October and there
