Habonimsal skoongemaakword

JANHENDRIK COETZER

DieOverstrand-munisipaliteit het besluit

om die gedeelte by Habonim skoon te

maak, hopelik nog binne di boekjaar,

maar dit sal in fases aangepak word. Sou

die nodige fondse beskikbaar raak, kan

die projek in totaliteit aangepak word.

Di verwikkelinge volg op n besoek van

diemunisipaliteitopDinsdag27Januarieaan

Sandbaai-Wes om die dreigende brandgevaar

daar te bespreek.

Verskeie verenigings in Sandbaai het vroe-

er hul kommer oor die ruie oorgroei van uit-

heemse bosse in die omgewing uitgespreek

het.

Volgens Neville Michaels, direkteur: be-

skermingsdienste byOverstrand-munisipali-

teit, is die mikpunt om so spoedig moontlik

met die skoonmaakproses te begin. In totali-

teit kan di projek in die omgewing van

R100 000 kos.

Verskillende opsies is bespreek:

Eenvandieopsies is om nbeheerdebrand

toe te pas, maar eerstens is daar n openbare

deelnameproses wat gevolg moet word en

tweedens moet daar n kosteberekening ge-

doen word. Die kosteberekening is reeds

deur my departement gedoen, en hierdie ver-

slag, wat alle fasette van die beheerde brand

uitbeeld, moet met die ander departemente

bespreek word.

Michaels sal ook verder n versoek rig aan

die areabestuurder omdie Brandweer te nooi

na n vergadering om die kwessie en die pad

vorentoe te bespreek, asook moontlike hulp

wat hulle van die wykskomitee kan ontvang.

Onsmoet in gedagte hou dat ons as brand-

weerdienste slegs die brandgevaar-gedeelte

hanteer.Ons is ongelukkignie plantkundiges

nie en daar is ook ander wetgewing wat be-

trokke is, spesifiekmet verwysing na die her-

groei van plantegroei.

Met die veiligheidsituasie wes van Bran-

derdraai s Michaels is daar reeds n brand-

ondersoek gedoen.

Brandweerdienste sal gereelde inspeksies

doen om te verseker dat brandbane in stand

gehou word, en indien nie, dit onder die aan-

dag van die areabestuurder gebring word.

Daar sal ook rekord gehou word van inspek-

sies wat gedoen moet word.

Volgens Michaels moet daar in gedagte ge-

hou word dat huiseienaars ook die verant-

woordelikheid het om te verseker dat dit

rondomhul huis skoonmoetwees van brand-

bare materiaal.

Die munisipaliteit het brandbane in plek,

maarmet nkuslynvanongeveer200 kmlank,

is dit n taamlike proses om te verseker dat

alle brandbane in stand gehou word. Over-

strand Brand en Redding en Rampbestuur is

ook tans besig met n risiko-analise vir die

areaas ngeheelomsodoendeteversekerdaar

beplan word vir nuwe brandbane.

Michaelsmeendatdie 25 mbrebrandbaan

op die oomblik in plek, voldoende is en wel

toegang bied vir brandbestrydingspersoneel

en toerusting. Ondersoek sal wel ingestel

word, en indien nodig sal daar instruksie ge-

gee word om die nodige regstellings te maak.

Daar sal ook besprekings gehou word wat be-

tref die onderhoud van die brandbane.

VolgensMichaelsmoet daar ook in gedagte

gehou word dat daar n begroting nodig is vir

enige groot projek.

Die hele Overstrand is n ho-risiko-area

en is dit byna onmoontlik omgeld beskikbaar

te maak om alles skoon te maak.

Sickwomandiesafter

firedestroysherhome

KERRY VAN RENSBURG

Two shacks in Zwelihle were gutted at

03:00 on Sunday 8 February and a desper-

ately ill woman not only lost everything

she owned, but died in hospital on Tues-

day afternoon

According to Ward 5 councillor, Sicelo

Gxamesi, the fire was caused by a candle in

theshackofayoungmanknownonlyasLaza-

ro. It then spread to the shack alongside his,

belonging to Ntombekho Fono.

Standing in the charred remains, Gxamesi

said thanks to the quick response of neigh-

bours and the fire brigade, the firewasquick-

ly containedandno furtherhousesor inform-

al dwellings were affected.

Gxamesi says Lazaro, who is unemployed,

lost his ID and all his belongings.

MoragSwanepoel,whohasworkedclosely

with the Zwelihle community for many

years, saysFonohadhighbloodpressureand

was diabetic.

Sitting at her bedside, in a neighbouring

house, onMondayafternoon,Swanepoelwas

overcomewithcompassion for the sickwom-

an.She tried everythingpossible tohelpher,

and took along a pot of soup and some basic

food items in her car, to give to her.

Fono visited a doctor in Somerset West on

Saturday7February,and themedicationshe

received, along with everything else, went

up in smoke.

Before thewomanpassedaway, Swanepoel

said: She is extremely ill and weak and in

a state of shock. She cannot speak or walk

and is only taking in liquids.

At Swanepoels insistence, Fonowas taken

to the Hermanus Provincial Hospital by am-

bulance shortly after she and the councillor

had visited her and the site of the fire.

Swanepoel rallied friends and community

membersviaFacebook tohelpprovidea shel-

ter and clothes for Fono. We have the start

of a collection of funds towards buyingmate-

rial for a shelter, said Swanepoel.

She told theHermanusTimes that theOver-

strand Municipality only helps with zinc for

shelters if a disaster is declared, and this

incident doesnt qualify as only two homes

were affected.

Swanepoel appealed for small donations

froma lot of people. She said onherFacebook

page:WeneedtoraiseR4 000tobuythemate-

rials forashack.Anyamountwouldbeappre-

ciated.

She says people from the community start-

ed donating blankets and clothes, and, be-

sides helping Fono, this could be the start

of a Zwelihle disaster relief fund to help peo-

ple who fall between the cracks.

But as the donations were coming in,

Swanepoel heard that Ntombikho Fona had

passed away in the Hermanus Provincial

Hospital on Tuesday afternoon.

She thankedthedozenorsopeoplewhohad

responded so generously and for their much

appreciated support.

Twomen drown at

Hawston beach

JANHENDRIK COETZER

Two men, aged 24 and 29, both from Ravens-

mead in Cape Town, drowned at Hawston

beach on Saturday 7 February after they were

swept out to sea while swimming.

According to Craig Lambinon from the

NSRI, they responded immediately, together

with law enforcement, Western Cape Govern-

ment EMS and the SAPS.

Lambinon says: A lifeguard on duty at the

local Hawston public swimming pool also re-

sponded andwent into the surf where heman-

aged to get the 24-year-old out of the sea. EMS

paramedics took over from the lifeguard, con-

ducting CPR, but despite these efforts theman

was declared dead on the scene.

During an ongoing search operation NSRI

rescuers also found the body of the 29-year-old.

When he was brought ashore at Hawston

harbour, paramedicson thescenedeclared the

man dead.

Thebodiesofbothmenwerehanded into the

care of police and the forensic pathology servi-

ces. According to RoderickWilliams, director:

communityservicesattheOverstrandMunici-

pality, a total of four drownings occurred at

Hawston beach since the start of the holiday

season last year.

Vermont woman died

of natural causes

JANHENDRIK COETZER

DesirreKurzyca(69),whowasfounddead

in her Vermont home on Friday 30 Janu-

ary, died of natural causes.

According to Kurzycas sister-in-law,

Jean Gaydon, this was confirmed to her

by the Police on Tuesday 3 February.

The body of Kurzyca was found by her

brother, Johnny Gaydon, who had re-

ceivedacall fromherhusbandPeter,who

was overseas at the time and got worried

when she did not answer her phone.

Gaydon climbed over the wall and

found her body.

Allthelightswerestilloninthehouse.

I think she may just have gotten light

headed as she fell backwards hitting her

head against the tiles.

Jean Gaydon says nothing looked sus-

picious at the scene.

There was clearly no robbery. Even

the forensics said so. They couldnt find

anything suspicious.

Peter and Brent (son) would like to

thankthepolice, forensicsaswell asADT

for their immediate response and the

professionalwayinwhichtheyhavehan-

dled the whole incident.

A fire which started at 13:42 on Sunday

afternoon on the Beaumont wine farm, un

derneath Eskom cables, caused some dam

age to vineyards on a nearby farm. Doug

Hawkins, a fire reservist from Bot River,

said units from Cape Nature and Working

on Fire fought the fire. Police officers were

also on patrol. All the affected farms do

nated tractor fire units in an effort to tackle

the flames, which spread from Beaumont,

up and over the river, and circled Luddite

en route to Roodheuwel. The fire jumped

Van der Stell Pass on the lower slopes of

the Beaumont residence and crossed into

the farmland, but fire fighters managed to

bring it under control through the course of

the night. Hawkins says Luddite suffered

damage to their vines, but mainly fynbos

and bush were burnt. Hawkins says he has

never seen a fire move so rapidly and with

such intense heat on the front line.

valskermswewer

JANHENDRIK COETZER

n Valskermswewer (paraglider) het n

noue ontkoming gehad toe hy Maandag-

middag in die berg bo Volklip taamlik

hard met Moeder Aarde kennis gemaak

het.

Nooddienspersoneel was vinnig op die to-

neel, en was heel verbaas toe hulle hom ge-

waar waar hy doodluiters teen die berg af-

stap met sy valskerm op sy rug.

Hy het slegs n skraapwond aan sy hand

opgedoen.

Volgens die nooddienspersoneel het die

swewer aan hulle verduidelik hy wou rens

naby Stanford geland het, maar as gevolg

van die windstil dag kon hy nie hoogte kry

nie en het hy in die bosse beland.

Volgens n Volklip-inwoner wat redelik

na aan die berg woon, land die swewers ge-

woonlik op die oop stuk veld by OK Mini-

Mark, maar hy het nie self di betrokke

insident sien gebeur nie.

nPlaaslike swewer,BevanPope, s diege-

ne wat Stanford toe sweef kry soms nie ge-

noeg wind nie en dan gebeur dit ongelukkig

dat jy tussen die bosse op die berg moet

land.

Dit het selfs eenkeer met my gebeur dat

ek ver bo die draadheining op die bergmoes

land.

En glo my, dis nogal n vreesaanjaende

ondervinding, iets wat ek nie sommer gou

weer wil oorkom nie. En dan moet jy nog

boonop baie ver loop om onder uit te kom.

Maar ja, in hierdie geval was dit eenvoudig

net n noodlanding waar die paraglider nie

n ander keuse gehad het as om tussen die

bosse te land nie.

nNooddiensbeampte het ges die swewer

wou geen behandeling gehad het nie, maar

hy het wel gevra of hy n ry-geleentheid in

dorp toe kan kry.

Pasop vir robbe op strand, hul kan

seermaak

JANINE VAN DER RIET

n Jong olifantrob is verle-

de week op Sandbaai se

strand gewaar waar hy in

die son gel en bak het.

Baie inwoners het die

Overstrand-munisipali-

teit (OM) gebel, bekom-

merd oor die rob wat uit-

gespoel het en moontlik

dood is.

Maar, waarsku Leon

Steyn,Overstrand-munisi-

paliteit se omgewingspesialis, mense moet

soos in hierdie geval, nie naby die 600 kg

swaar jong rob kom nie.

Al lykdit ofhulle dood is, ishullemoontlik

nie.Hulle rus n bietjie op die strandvoorhul-

le weer verder swem. Robbe het groot tande

en kan mens of dier baie seermaak as hulle

gesteur word.

CapeNature en die OMhet n ogie gehou en

die rob het later weer die waters ingevaar.

Verskeie mense het gedink die olifantrob het

uitgespoel en is dood. Maar ta het net gel

en rus.

Die Olifantrob het later weer verder in die water baljaar.

85 is just anumber toMrFynbos

JANHENDRIK COETZER

FrankWoodvine (85), well-known

fynbos expert, was honoured by

the Hermanus Botanical Society

by way of two benches erected in

the Fernkloof Nature Reserve.

Onehas an inscription dedicated to

Frank, the other bench is in memory

of his wife, Valerie, who worked

alongsidehimandsharedhispassion.

Frank has spent a lifetime caring

for the environment and still contin-

ues to do so today.

Originally fromEngland,hemoved

to Zimbabwe at the age of 25 in 1955,

and then settled in Hermanus in 1976

where he started working for Over-

strand Municipality: Environmental

Management.He retired fromthis po-

sition in 1995.

Frank was also curator for Fern-

kloofNatureReserve aswell as chair-

person of the Camphill Management

Board. Today he is still a member of

theCliffPathManagementGroup, the

Hermanus Botanical Society as well

as environmental consultant for Bou-

chard Finlayson wine estate.

And besides these many responsi-

bilities, he is still a very active biodi-

versity tour guide.

Frank has no plans to slow down,

and isputting togethera trip toSuma-

tra. Not many people know about

this Indonesian island and its biodi-

versity. In terms of biodiversity, Bra-

zil isrankedfirst in theworld, Indone-

sia second and South Africa third.

It isalsotheonlyplaceintheworld

where the orangutan is still to be

found.

Discovery trips and breaking new

ground are in his nature. Frank re-

calls one adventure, back in 1957 that

stands out for him:

At the upper Zambezi Valley, be-

fore the Kariba dam was built, I was

involved in surveying tree species in

areaswhichwouldbefloodedafterthe

lake filled.Thevalleywasremote,vir-

tuallytracklessandteemedwithwild-

life. Lots of animals also needed to be

removed.

As Anina Lee from Whale Coast

Conservation says about Frank: He

isup toany task enthralling tourists

with his deep grasp of ecological con-

nections; sharing his knowledge of

fynbos;clearingaliens;andeducating

the young.

He has been a wonderful friend to

Whale Coast Conservation. Thank

you Frank may we have the benefit

of your knowledge and wisdom for

many years to come.

The words engraved on the one

bench in Fernkloof fittingly reads:

tionist, we salute you.

Department investigating complaint

after doctor refused to help patient

JANINE VAN DER RIET

A Mount Pleasant resident, suffering from

diabetes was very upset after she was hu-

miliated and not helped at the newly built

Hermanus Community DayCentre (CDC) in

Swartdam Road.

Thewoman, whowishes to remain anony-

mous, says shewent to the clinic onTuesday

27 January after she had made an appoint-

ment for 15:00.

This 60-year-old patient says the doctor

that was supposed to see her, was not there,

and another was tasked to assist. She just

needed a prescription renewed for her dia-

betes.

The doctor just refused to help me. He

took my file and threw it on the ground and

said he had only six minutes left before he

goes home for the day!

She was very upset, and left the clinic

without a renewed prescription.

The Hermanus Times contacted the Over-

berg District Health Department regarding

this particular complaint, and on Friday,

Natasha Peterson, spokesperson for the de-

partment, said they are busy investigating

the matter.

She says the department encourages the

community to use the following platforms

when lodging an official complaint against

the department:

) Speak to a senior official at the facility.

)Write, phone or email the medical man-

ager.

) Complete a feedback form and place it

in the box provided.

)Contact the complaints hotline by send-

ing an email to service@western-

cape.gov.za, calling 0860 142 142 or sending

a please call me to 079 769 1207.

The Western Cape Government Health

has provided numerous platforms of engag-

ing with dissatisfied clients to ensure that

we can improve the patients experience at

our facilities, Peterson said.

L2L practicewalk covered 18 km

Itwas a blisteringhot day, but

that did nothing to wither the

enthusiasm of a group of 37

Lighthouse 2 Lighthouse la-

dies and supporters who com-

pleted another practice walk

last Saturday.

The distance they covered

were the 18 kms stretching

from De Kelders to Grotto

beach.

A nominal fee was charged

to participate and the funds

raised were for the benefit of

the Overberg Wheelchair As-

sociation, one of the nominat-

ed charities of the 2015 L2L.

A shorter walk was orga-

nised as well from Piet-se-Bos

toSopiesklip(atDiePlaat)and

back, completed by 16 adults

and 9 kids.

Among the veteranwalkers (and supporters) who completed the long walk in readiness for

the L2L walk in March were Kurt Nielsen, Les Clark, Maretha Swanepoel, Ren and Heinz

Grater and Vivienne Stone. They completed the walk in four and a half hours.

With spirit, and flags flying high, were Franco Smith, Lionel

Texas Isaacs, Ian Bredell and Johannes slaptjips Witbooi

NOT EVEN ESKOM COULD SPOIL RE

UNION: The Chingola reunion took place

at The Classroom Restaurant on the even

ing of Saturday 7 February. According to

the organiser, Daph Weaving, what sets

this reunion apart, is that its not the run

of the mill school reunion, but a reunion

of an entire village. Chingola is a copper

mining town in what was then known as

Northern Rhodesia, now Zambia. Seventy

guests attended the reunion, many of

whom had not seen each other for the

past 5060 years. They arrived from all

over South Africa and Zambia. Nine of

the guests at the reunion will also be cel

ebrating their 70th birthday in 2015,

many guests were older. Weaving said

words cannot do justice to all the years

of love and strength our parents gave us.

We thank them for choosing Chingola as

our home town. We have a very special

bond, and not even an Eskom power out

age could dull our sparkle at the joy of

being reunited so many years later.

FAMILY TREASURE: The Hermanus

History Societys first members meet

ing for 2015 was on 2 February at

the Windsor Hotel. Dr Robin Lee told

members that the HHS publication In

Those Days: The Story of Joey van

Rhyn Luyt at the Marine Hotel, Her

manus was completely sold out and

the society was considering a re

print. As a result of the books suc

cess, a whole trunk load of new

documentation discovered in a ga

rage about the extended Luyt fami

ly, has been handed over to the

towns history boffs and might war

rant other publications. Lee says the

book has sparked a contact with the

Allengensky family (anglicised to Al

len) which had an extensive fishing

operation, owned the Windsor Hotel

for a while, and set up and ran the

first cinema in Hermanus the Adel

phi. He reckons there may be anoth

Talk onwetlands and freshwater systems

World Wetlands Week is celebrated

internationally in February and

WhaleCoast Conservationwill host

a talk by Edward Archer, titled:

Aquatic Canaries: Using micro-or-

ganisms and freshwater animals as

biomarkers of water pollution, on

Tuesday 24 February at 17:30 at the

Green House.

Over the years, it has become

more and more evident that man-

made products are entering our

freshwater supplies and creating

pressure upon the quality of these

systems.

The use of biological indicators of

waterpollution (orbiomarkers) can

then provide vital information on

the presence of certain harmful wa-

ter pollutants.

Some of these harmful contami-

nants are endocrine disrupting con-

taminants (EDCs), which come

from several agricultural, domestic

and industrial practices.

These pollutants can severely af-

fect reproductive and/or develop-

mental endocrine systems of both

humans and wildlife species.

To date, the presence and levels

of EDCs in SouthAfricanwater sys-

temsarenot adequately recordedor

monitored.

This is largely due to the lack of

awarenessabouttheharmfuleffects

of these contaminants, and also the

lack of sufficient biomarkers to

show their presence in the water.

This is where the use of micro-or-

ganisms and aquatic organisms can

be used as sentinel indicators of

freshwater quality.

Edward will discuss the sources

and presence of EDCs in our fresh-

waterresourcesandalsovariousus-

es of biomarker species (both onmi-

cro and macro level) to show the

presenceand fateof thesechemicals

in our water systems.

Treasure and protect

those who reach out

Our community is full of people in need,

many of them so povertystricken that

they are unable to afford the basics of

life. When tragedy strikes and poverty

is all you know, it may seem all is lost

and no one cares.

But Hermanus is full of people who do

care about those less fortunate.

This week a champion of the poor and

her network of communityminded

friends unselfishly came to the rescue of

a poor woman, who was so sick she

could not care for herself.

Andon topof that, her shackhadburnt

down and she lost everything.

The woman did not survive her illness

or the ordeal, but in her last hours, she

knew compassion and kindness.

She may not have realised it, but so

many people were donating blankets,

clothing, foodandmoney tohelp rebuild

her home.

And this came about because one

woman in our community motivated a

small army of likeminded people to ex

tend a helping hand.

There are fewwellheeled peoplewho

will go into Zwelihle, let alone into the

alleys and homes of the poorest of the

poor.

We need to treasure and protect peo

ple like these,becausewithout themsoci

ety would be all the poorer.

Would a fourway stop solve the problem at Bergzicht Street?

I would like to comment on the front page

article in the Hermanus Times of 29 Janu-

aryabout the trafficproblemson theSand-

baaiMain Road and Bergzicht Road inter-

section.

Traffic management at minor junctions

is a problem experienced worldwide and

for many years. Every country has been

looking for solutions for a long time and

most of themhave introduced standard so-

lutions. Based mainly on empirical infor-

mation, various intersection layouts are

in use as standard designs when coupled

with available or projected traffic figures.

In South Africa this practice goes back

to the sixties and I remember the old

Transvaal Provincial Design Manual.

Both the Hermanus Protection Service

and the Department Infrastructure and

Planning must be aware of these off the

shelf solutions and they have simply

missed their chance to implement them

in the past. At this point in time, however,

theMain Road and Bergzicht intersection

most probably needs a tailor-made and de-

signed solution and has passed its stan-

dard options phase.

A no cost improvement could be to turn

the junction into a four-way stop. I am ful-

ly aware that the introduction of a four-

way stop at this intersection now is too

little too late andwill not really solve the

problem.

A four-way stop would, however, pro-

vide opportunity for all traffic streams to

move continuously and would especially

benefit right hand turning traffic. Stop-

ping theMain Road traffic would also pos-

sibly encourage Sandbaai residents to use

thealternativeoverSkulphoekRoad.Why

not try this? It can in no way make things

worse.

The second point I would like to make

refers to Mr Stephen Mllers comments.

The road infrastructure in Hermanus be-

longs to the OverstrandMunicipality. No-

body but the Department Infrastructure

and Planning has any authority over the

Hermanus roads. Mr Mller refers to ac-

cess for Curro and the Shopping Centre

and says - I quote: Dit sal die ontwikke-

laar se verantwoordelikheid wees . om

te verseker dit kan die verkeersvolume

dra end quote. By implication Mr

Muller says in his comments that it is the

responsibility of the developer of the

Sandbaai Shopping Centre to provide ade-

quate access, not only to the Centre itself

but also to Curro; no Shopping Centre, er-

go, no improvement for the Curro access.

This is ridiculous and a misrepresenta-

tion of the facts. Since when has the mu-

nicipality nothing to do with our roads?

Depending on conditions of the relevant

development approvals, the financial bur-

den for changes to the road infrastructure

can be placed on the developer but not the

planning responsibility.

During approval for Curro the infra-

structure requirements for the school

must have been part of the environmental

assessment and projected scholar num-

bers as well as traffic numbers must have

been on the table. To ignore these require-

ments in thehope that someotherdevelop-

er may solve the problem is highly irre-

sponsible.

Infrastructure and Planning should

stand up to its responsibilities and accept

that the department slippedup in develop-

ing this particular junction. Probably at

no point in time were the required finan-

ces provided for or allocated as themunic-

ipality was waiting for the outside devel-

oper. This in itself is no problem; the sys-

tem sometimes works like that.

R BEUNINK

ONRUS

Stephen Mller, Director: Infra-

structure and Planning at Overstrand

Municipality, responds:

Regarding the suggestion to introduce a

4-way stop I would like to comment as fol-

lows:

The overall volume of traffic inBergzicht

Street does not warrant the installation of

a 4-way stop at the intersection with Main

Road. The congestion is only experienced

for 30 minutes in the morning and 20 min-

utes at midday. A 4-way stop will only mar-

ginally improve the level of service for ap-

proximately one hour per day but will be

very inconvenient for users of Main Road

for the remaining 23 hours of the day.

Regarding the timing of the required up-

grading of the intersection, I would like to

comment as follows:

The upgrading of this portion of Berg-

zicht Street (including a traffic circle at

Main Road) was planned for implementa-

tion with the development of the Sandbaai

Commonage.

Because of the great need for more educa-

tion facilities inHermanus, themunicipali-

ty approved the development of the school

on a portion of the commonage before a de-

veloper was secured for the commonage as

a whole.

Themotivationwas to secureagoodqual-

ity education facility for the communityand

have it available as soon as possible. The

developer of the school was ready to start

immediately and the municipality did not

want to risk losing such an opportunity for

investment by insisting that the develop-

ment of the whole commonage happens at

the same time.

There is no link between the development

of the Sandbaai Shopping Centre and the

upgrade of this portion of Bergzicht Street

this was an unfortunate misquote in the

newspaper article.

Regarding the responsibility of the re-

quired upgrading of the intersection, I

would like to comment as follows:

The internal road network of municipal

streets belongs to the municipality and the

municipality is responsible for the provi-

sion, operation andmaintenance of the net-

work.When a development is approved, the

developer is required to provide the infra-

structure required to address the impact of

the development on municipal infrastruc-

ture. This is normally done by paying a

Bulk Infrastructure Contribution Levy

(BICL).

The municipality uses the BICL to up-

grade the municipal services required for

the development. This includes upgrades to

the water, sewer, electricity, roads and

storm water infrastructure.

I trust this provides more clarity on the

situation.

hierdie oplossing te kry. Die alternatief is

moontlike noodlottige ongelukke.

Laasweek het die Gauteng-Noord hof n eis

toegestaan aan die oorlewendes van n nood-

lottige ongeluk weens die toestand van die

pad.

Eweneens het di verskriklike padaanslui-

ting ook ongelukke gehad en nou wag en wag

ons vir die winkelsentrum-ontwikkelaar om

die probleem te besleg. Nie goed genoeg nie!

Wag ons vir n ongeluk of kan ons n paar

strepe en stop-tekens kry, asseblief!

SANDBAAI INWONER

Sypaadjienie jounenie

Ek is nou behoorlike gaaivol vir die ooms en

tannies van Sandbaai wat vir my skel as ek

en my hondjie op hul sypaadjies loop. As

daar nie n omheining is nie, is hulle eers be-

foeterd. Ander mense vertel hulle word ook

geskel.

Van wanneer af koop mens die sypaadjie

saammet die huis? nMan byGoldenHarvest

staan agter die muur en vertel my dis s sy-

paadjie.

Die sypaadjies behoortmos aan diemunisi-

paliteit. Kan die munisipaliteit asseblief dit

in hul maandelikse brief verduidelik.

Mag julle tuin op die sypaadjie maak? Ja,

dis pragtig, en ek vertrap dit nie.

Onsstemvolmondig saammetRaieWells (HT

5Februarie p. 10) rakendedie skoonmaakvan

verwaarloosde en oorgroeide le erwe.

Na die onlangse bergbrand en die gevaar

wat dit vir huise en inwoners in Chanteclair,

Berghof, Onrus Manor, Kidbrooke en Curro

ingehou het, is dit uiters noodsaaklik dat die

munisipaliteit ook die skoonmaakbeleid in n

area soos Vermontmeer daadwerklik toepas.

Ons is volkome vertroudmet die prosedure

van aanmelding, die kennisgewing wat aan

eienaars uitgestuur word (of nie uitgestuur

word nie) ens. maar die klagte blyk meestal

op dowe ore te val, want die erwe is glo nie

n brandgevaar nie.

Ons laat ons nie vertel dat erwemet indrin-

gers soos Port Jacksons en dooie bietous wat

in soveel as vyf jaar nie verwyder is nie, nie

n brandgevaar inhou nie.

Daar is ook al by geleentheid aan ons ges

dat dit baie duur geword het vir eienaars om

erwe te laat skoonmaak.

Mense, as jy in Kaapstad of Pretoria woon

en n erf hier besit, kan jy seer sekerlik ook

die skoonmaak daarvan een keer per jaar be-

kostig.

Onsbepleit nie dat erwekaal gestroopword

nie (soos npaar jaar gelede),maardat indrin-

gers uitgeroei en dro, dooie takke en lang

grasse netjies opgeruim word.

Hit and runandno recourse?

On Sunday 1 February I was sitting in my

car in a parking bay at the Gateway Super-

Spar while my husband went into the shop.

A man in a Rav4J drove into the bay next

to me at great speed and hit my car, scratch-

ing it all along the drivers side.

He was so close I could not get out of the

car, so I opened the window and said you

just hitmy car. His replywas park proper-

ly, why dont you.

The time was 15:00 andmost parking bays

were empty.

His passenger was in the seat behind him

I think they were having a row. He raced

off into the shop and I had to reverse to get

out of my car. I went in after him and said

You have scratched my car and we need

to exchange details. Can I have your name?

He shot off down an aisle and turned to

me and said again park properly in future

and stormed off.

So I went out and took photos of his regis-

tration and disc and his bumper that still

had my paint on it. I reported it to the police

station. He has a Botswana licence plate.

I phoned my insurance company and the

damage is R7 000. I will now lose my no

claimsbonus, etc.The insurance said I could

try 3rd party.

My question is does one get away with

something like this? Just hit and run and

I have no recourse?

The police said they could do nothing as

no onewas injured. They said to try the traf-

fic department to get his name, but that de-

partment said they did not have his name

and sent me back to see a detective at the

police station. Is there any possibility of

finding the owner of this car?

So no matter how safe you feel sitting in

your car in a nice open parking lot, you still

can be faced with a hit and run, as this

is exactly what it is.

Adams reageeropklagoordissiplinebyHawston

Na aanleiding van die berig oor diemessteke-

ry by Hawston Sekondr bestaan daar twyfel

of mnr. Adams bevoeg is om dissipline by die

skool te handhaaf. Sy kop-in-die-sand-hou-

ding sal seker ophou as daar die dag n lyk

by die skool uitgedra word.

BEKOMMERDE EN ONTSTELDE OUER

Idy Adams, skoolhoof: Hawston Sekon-

dr:Dit is nou regtig nuus vir my. Die voorval

het onmiddellik die nodige aandag geniet (vol-

gens die voorskrifte waartoe ek as werknemer

verbind is). Ons het ook reeds n ouervergade-

ring gehou rakende die veiligheid van die leer-

ders by die skoolmet n verteenwoordiging van

ongeveer 300 ouers.Hulle het hulle daartoe ver-

bind om die skool te ondersteun en as ouers eie-

naarskap te neem van die skool.

Mykantoor staan oop vir enige voorstelle om

die skoolveiligheid te bevorder.

Watmy bevoegdheid betref, hoef daar net ge-

kyk te word na die vordering wat die skool

maak op alle terreine van opvoeding.

Ek nooi dus hierdie anonieme ouer uit om

sy kop uit die sand te haal, my te kom besoek

en persoonlik sy bydrae ter samewerking deur

te gee.

Lekker weer hier

Genoeg is genoeg, skryf n leser, hy wil nou weet

(nie later nie) waaromDie Overberg voor in die tou

staanwanneermooiweeruitgedeelword.Dit is soos

RiaanCruywagen opHaasDas seNuuskas ges het:

dieweerisomgekrapmaarelders isditmooiweer.

Elders is Hermanus, het Riaan gese toe ek hom vra.

Dit is nie fair playnie, skryfHansieTheronvan

Calvinia, waar die barometer deesdae wil bars van

die hitte en hy wat n hartlyer is, koers moet vat

na sy vakansiehuis op Hermanus.

InCalvinia rondhet almal loopneuse vandie ysli-

ke verskil in temperature saans 12 en bedags 36.

En dit terwyl die Overstranders die matigste weer

denkbaar in die land geniet.

Nie dat dit nie op Hermanus se berge ook ren

nie, maar dit is skaars genoeg om gerus te wees oor

die dorpsdam se watervlak.

Vatnoumaarvandag(Donderdag).Daaris18ver-

skil op Calvinia en op Hermanus net 6.

Dit is nie uit die duim gesuig nie, die gemiddelde

patroon is presies dit: Calvinia 9 tot 32 vanaand

enHermanus n genoeglike 18 in die aandwat van-

dag maar by die 24 gedraai het.

Kyk ons na die lesings in die bolug sien ons dat

die Atlantiese hoogdrukstelsel weer tot 50 grade

suid in die Arktiese See afdwaal om die koue lug

letterlik aan die keel te gryp en in die rigting van

die IndieseOseaan te slinger.Maar daar tussen

50gradesuiden35gradeoos (byMarion-eiland)

loop die koue hulle teen die warmweer van die

ooste vas en stuur dit in die rigting vanAustra-

li, waar dit dalk ook iets goeds kan beteken.

Dit wil voorkom asof die lugstroom wat oor

die grootste deel van die Suid-Kaap vloei n ge-

balanseerdemengsel is van die laagdruk en die

hoogdruk se effek op die seewater en dit net ge-

noeg verhit vir die matige weer wat dan van

Mosselbaai af weswaarts in die rigting van die

Skiereiland dryf.

Die verwagting is dat die matige lugvloei ge-

noeg wolke bymekaar kan skraap om 0,4 mm

vog teversamel ensoosdouenmistigheid terug

te gooi aarde toe.Mens kan dit beswaarlik ren

noem, soos die koerante en radio dit aandui.
