LOTUS RIVER
Noses up to liquor storeCHEVON BOOYSEN
@ChevonBooysen
Barely a year after applying for a scrap-yard licence at premises on the cornerof Zeekoe Road and 1st Avenue in Lotus
River, the business owner has now appliedfor a liquor licence on the same spot.People’s Post previously reported on the
premises where owner Sholom Davidsonhad applied for a scrapyard to be run (“Scrapthat plan, please”, 19 May 2015). The plan torun a scrapyard was abandoned when theapplication was denied.
Davidson has now applied for a liquor li-cence, but the response from residents in thearea is not positive.
And in their bid to stop the new plan from
going ahead, residents have signed petitionsobjecting to the application.
Resident Mogamad Davids says after be-ing notified of the application organisationsin the community immediately took action.
“The community took a stand and unitedby signing petitions. We cannot tolerate thisas the business is situated right opposite aschool and close to a church,” Davids says.
Davids says they became aware of the ap-plication after seeing the notice up at theshop on the premises.
“We knew we had to act. We do not wantthis licence to be granted at all. We gatheredabout 800 [signatures] so far and this wassent to the liquor authority,” he says.
Religious leader Sheik Shaheen from theLotus River mosque is also happy the com-
munity is taking a stand against the new ap-plication.
“Residents of our community, the mosqueand churches have come together to rallysupport. Lotus River has its own issues andgranting a liquor licence would only have afurther negative impact on our communi-ty,” he says.
The Western Cape Liquor Authority hadnot yet responded to People’s Post enquiriesat the time of going to print.
Owner’s responseDavidson says he is aware of the petitions
that have been sent out in the community.“Objections have been received and this
was confirmed to me by the liquor authority.The negative implications have been looked
at and this is what comes with the territory,”Davidson says.
He adds the liquor store he plans to openwill be run on a “koop en loop” basis wherecustomers will be served over a counter.
“All concerns with regard to safety and se-curity are already being addressed. I am al-ready in the process of setting up CCTV cam-eras on the premises and in future we arelooking at stationing 24-hour security at thepremises as well. This will definitely be abenefit to the school as well and the commu-nity in the surrounds,” Davidson explains.
He adds the store will contribute positive-ly to growth in the community as local em-ployment will be an investment in the com-munity.V Continued on page 2.

CAPE TOWN CARNIVAL
Athlone drum group to wow again“Don’t do drugs, do drums” is
the motto the members ofLimited Edition Drum Corps liveby. They create awareness aboutgangsterism, poverty and violencein Manenberg through their im-pressive choreography and sticktricks on snare drums.The group helps boys living in
Manenberg stay off the streets.“We feel it is important that our
youth is informed. The fact thatmany young people in our commu-nities are using drugs as part oftheir social and recreational lifes-tyle does notmake this a safe or ac-ceptable practice. It is only by col-lectively working to take the ‘cool’factor out of drug use, that we canhelp safeguard the lives and healthof the young people,” says directorYaggie Sampson.The Corps had its fair share of
challenges, from borrowing drumsto enter SA’s Got Talent to the con-stant disturbances of gangsterism,crime and overcrowding. Howev-er, they never let this stop themfrom reaching their dreams.The talented group wowed audi-
ences with their energetic per-formance at the Cape Town Carni-val last year. They have since beeninvited to perform nationwide.They will perform at this year’sCape Town Carnival again, whichwill take place along the GreenPoint Fan Walk on 12 March.“Cape Town Carnival taught us
many skills in the field of perform-ingarts – teamwork,unity andhowto represent ourselves in the enter-tainment world,” says Sampson.“It was an honour to meet othergroups and artists and collaborateon ideas, but the best part was onthe day of the event, when the en-tire community came together asone big family”.“Our dream would definitely be
to further expand the group andperform at the Cape Town Castleand the EdinburghMilitary Tattooin Scotland.”The group also aims to collabo-
rate with sponsors to get their ownequipment and transport.V For more information on the Cape TownCarnival visit the TheCapeTownCarnivalpage on Facebook. Limited Edition Drum Corps from Manenberg will be performing in the Cape Town Carnival again this year.
Gatesville group in Carnival againThe Vadhini Indian Arts Academy inGatesville, foundedbyShrimari SavitriNa-idoo, has been entertaining locals and tour-ists for 36 years.The internationally recognised academy
was established in Cape Town and special-ises in traditional Indian dancingwith a lo-cal twist. The dancers are committed to
bringing diversity to the Cape arts scene byexposing locals to different religions and cul-tures.“We aim to inspire and instil a sense of
beauty and increase the appreciation of Indi-an arts,” says senior dance instructor MayaKooverjee. “We are proud to share Indianarts with the community.”
The academy specialises in Bharata Nat-yum, a south Indianart form,which is taughton a workshop basis. The academy is also in-volved with the Footprints project, which fo-cuses on the social integration of refugeechildren using dance as amedium to supportpupils with barriers to learning.
Dance as barrier breaker“We are passionate about continuing to
better the community and hopefully in thenear future introduce our own outreach pro-gramme,” says Kooverjee. “We recently per-formed in the classical Indian play NrityaAlankaaram that showcased themost inspir-ing Indian dance forms and epitomises whatthe academy has to offer.”The academy’s performers have dazzled
Cape Town Carnival spectators since 2010and will continue to show off their talents atthe seventh annual Carnival along theGreenPoint Fan Walk on 12 March from 16:00.“Cape Town Carnival has allowed us to
showcase what our academy has to offer ona much larger scale,” says Kooverjee. “CapeTown Carnival has helped us in more waysthan one. It has helped raise awareness forthe academy, introducing the public to Indi-an arts and it has helped the students of Vad-hini academy to be a part of an iconic eventand perform in front of thousands of people.”V For more information on the Cape Town Carnival visitthe TheCapeTownCarnival page on Facebook.
Vadhini Indian Arts Academy from Gatesville will be performing in the Cape Town Carnivalagain this year.

A section of the M3 between Newlands andTrovato Link inWynberg is to be resurfacedfrom late January or early February.The roadworks will happen during night
time and take about four and a half months.The project, at a cost of R17m, should be
completed by mid-May.Ian Bowker, the head of pavement materi-
als and rehabilitation at Transport for CapeTown, says all construction work has beenscheduled to take place at night so that mo-torists are inconvenienced as little as possi-ble.“Work on the outbound lane will take
place between 19:30 and 05:30 and work onthe inbound lane will be done between 19:00and 05:00. Residents’ concerns regardingnoise levels have been taken into accountand limited use of jackhammers will be al-lowed until 23:00.“Unfortunately, reverse beepers are a le-
gal safety requirement butwehave specifiedthat they be dampened to try to minimisetheir impact. We have also specified regularpre-workmeetingswith thework crew to re-mind them about reducing on-site noise lev-els,” says Bowker.The project will repair and resurface all
parts of theM3 in the area thatwerenot com-pleted during the resurfacing done in 2014.The slow lanes in both directions will be
treated with three new asphalt layers whilethe fast lanes will receive two new layers.In both lanes the existing old asphalt will beremoved and replaced. The final layer willconsist of an ultra-thin friction course andwill ensure a durable road surface.

Grassy Park police have asked residents inthe area to always keep recent photographsof their children and relatives.They have also asked parents to always
report a child or personmissing immediate-ly.Grassy Park police spokesperson War-
rant Officer Wynita Kleinsmith says theyhave had instances where parents reporttheir children missing only after two orthree days.“It is essential to take steps and start the
investigation into a missing person’s caseimmediately. When people report missingpeople days later, it will only make it somuch harder to reunite the person withtheir families,” Kleinsmith says.“People need to realise the sooner they act
and bring all updated and recent informa-tion, the better the chances of finding thatperson. It takes only three hours for some-body to gomissingand takenout of the prov-
ince,” she says.Take the following steps when reporting
a missing person:. Report a missing person at your nearestpolice station immediately.. Produce a recent photograph of the miss-ing person.. Give a complete description of the miss-ing person’s last whereabouts, clothes hewas wearing, as well as any informationthat can help the investigating officer.. Complete and sign an SAPS 55(A) form.This form safeguards the police from hoaxreports and indemnifies the police to dis-tribute the photograph and information ofthe missing person.. Get the investigating officer’s contact de-tails and send any additional informationthat might become available.“If a missing person is found or returns
voluntarily, inform the investigating offi-cer immediately,” Kleinsmith says.“Let us be vigilant and work collectively
to keep families together and safe,” she con-cludes.
Grassy Park police have urged residents andparents to always have updated pictures oftheir children and relatives in case they gomissing. In the above missing notice anoutdated picture was supplied for a 14yearold missing girl. The girl has not yet beenfound.

Carmen’s journey is on the upGARY VAN DYK
@gvdcapejazz
A musical journey that started in Mitch-ell’s Plain has reached amajormilestone
with the launch of Carmen Xclusive’s debutCD.Many music lovers will simply know her
as Carmen Herbert or, if you’re a bit moreold-school, “Carmen from N2”.She laughs when acknowledging her asso-
ciation with the popular band.“Yes, that was a very important part ofmy
life, my education and training in the musicbusiness, but it started before I joinedthem,” she says.While, like somanymusicianson theCape
Flats, the roots of her talent are in thechurch, she used to sneak away to the Innon the Plain to listen to Rudolph Paulse andthe band Horizon.“I loved the music; it just meant some-
thing special tome and eventually I was per-suaded to enter a singing competition there
and the rest as they say is history.“Offers came in for me to perform at caba-
ret shows and I was only 14 at the time, butI fell in love with the business and just en-joyed singing.”Asword spread about the young talent she
joined up with Mike Kwagga’s Nuff-Zedwhen she was 16 and a year later joined the
Wentzel brothers in N2.“Performing with them for almost ten
years was an exciting time for me. This wasalmost like me going to college and learningto hone my talent.“Eventually I felt that I wanted to take a
step up in my career by going beyond theclub scene, get into the corporate scenarioand work in a wider variety of styles.“That’s alsowhen I decided to becomeCar-
menXclusive as abrand thatwanted to showthe world my own identity and that there’sonly one me,” she laughs.Since then shehas impressedmusic lovers
with the best in the business in SouthAfricaand discovered the jazzier side of her talentwith Ian Smith’s VJR and various collabora-tions with the likes of Richard Caesar, AllouApril and Robbie Jansen.With the release of her album, Xclusive
Nites @ Pigalles, she has surrounded herselfwith some of the best around town. CamilloLombard produced the albumwith his bandTop Dog backing her as well as a brass sec-
tion comprising Ian Smith and Willy Hau-brich.Carmen confesses she has been going
around to some of the popular radio stationsbut can’t get any of them to feature the al-bum on their playlists.This remains a mystery because every
tuneon this albumisa carefully craftedgem.“It’s an albumofmy favourite covers done
my way,” she says. “Volume 2 I am going togive the word some of my originals.”She opens with the David Foster composi-
tion “Love that will Last” and the quality ofthe voice that made so many love her is im-mediately evident.She takes some pop classics like “Get
Lucky”andAmyWinehouse’s “Valerie” andtwists them into tunes that could feature inanalbumofnew jazzy standards. EvenChar-lieChaplin’s “Smile” featureswith a funkierkind of feel.V For more information on where to get the albumemail [email protected] or call Bernie on079 871 9855.

Housing tenants who are in arrears willface legal action this year.
Residents who rent houses from the Cityof Cape Town and who owe rent and ignoreall the reminders to pay are at risk – particu-larly if they are able to pay their rent.“Please use this opportunity to make sure
that you keep your abode,” says Chris Bar-nard, project manager at TraceOnline.The company has been contracted by the
City to provide tenants of City housing withinformation, help themwith indigent grantsand undertake collections.Barnard says there are already a number
of court cases for eviction orders for tenantswho have been in debt for a long time and
who have ignored reminders and opportuni-ties to make arrangements for payment.“It is unacceptable that there are so many
tenants who are able to pay, but simplyrefuse to do so,” says Barnard.
Unfair to othersAbout 260 000 people in Cape Town are on
the housing waiting list, who are preparedto pay, says Barnard.“It is unfair towards the thousands of peo-
ple who want to pay and who are preventedfrom getting a home by those who refuse topay. Another result of people not payingtheir rent is that there is not sufficient in-come for all the maintenance that needs to
be done. This is once again unfair towardsthose people who do pay,” says Barnard.The City has an indigent grant to subsi-
dise people who have no income or a verysmall income. Residents can apply for this.However, if they fail once to pay the de-
creased rental, the grant is immediatelywithdrawn.
ProcessThe process that is followed before some-
one is evicted is very fair, says Barnard.People are first of all reminded that they
are in arrears and that they have to pay.They are further informed about the indi-gent grant option.
Reminders are delivered to them person-ally.If they still do not respond, they will re-
ceive a letter from an attorney. From thenon the legal process will take its course. Thetenant is then also responsible for legal ex-penses.“That is why we seriously request people
to take immediate steps to make sure thatthey keep the roof over the heads of theirfamily.“No-one wants to start a new year with a
sword hanging over your head. It does nothelp to simply ignore the problem.”V Tenants who owe rent are requested to call TraceOn-line on 0861 99 77 77.

Softballers face tough rivalsJOSEPH PILLAY
Westridge Yankees’ softbal-lers can be proud after hav-ing a very good andwell de-
served harvest on the Cape TownSoftball Association’s super leagueplaying fields over the weekend.The Mitchell’s Plain side first
staved off a stiff challenge by Fal-cons, beating them 5-0 in an en-counter at Turfhall Stadium onSaturday.This victory was followed by a
thrilling knockout encounter onSunday when St Martin’s cameclose to upstaging the Yankees ina see-saw game. The Yankees man-aged to rise to the occasion to edgeout Saints 6-5.Saturday’s win over the Falcons
served as a morale-boosting tri-umph for the Yankees, who weredetermined to break the strangle-hold Falcons have had over themin recent months.The Yankees were in a destruc-
tive mood, with the battery combi-nation of pitcher Megan Cable andcatcher Carla Witchman sharingin four strike outs.Cable faced 23 batters in her six
innings pitched. While she conced-ed two base-on-balls and earnedfour fanned scalps, she surren-dered only twohits toCandiceRoss(1-3) and Bettina Philips (1-3), whoweighed in with a two bagger.Meanwhile, Falcons started off
withCathyBuckley and shewasonthemound for 4.1 of an innings. Shefaced 22 batters and allowed sevenhits while relief pitcher Nicky
Jones (1.2 of an inning) faced ninebatters and surrendered three hits.Among the ten hits the Yankees
clobbered off the Falcons’ pitching
pair.Witchman (2-2), Cable, JackieAdonis (each 2-3), CharmelleWhiteboy (1-2), Candice Bull (1-3)and Nuraan Williams (1-4), who
smacked a triple, were in goodstead with the bat that contributedto runs and simultaneously a de-served and industrious win.

The Cape Town Softball Association (CTSA) is bat-tling to keep its head above water due to lack ofsponsorship. The organisation was once regardedas the most successful softball body in Africa, butthis crown seems to be slipping in recent years.In an in-depth, exclusive interview with CTSA
chairperson Noore Nacerodien, he admitted thegame of softball needs a change in fortune as thecommunity cannot afford to play sport anymoredue to the high cost of fees, transport and equip-ment.Lack of financial backing from benefactors has
now urged Nacerodien to do something about thisand “instead of begging for handouts to ensure thecontinued existence of our organisation, we mustget off our backs and look at ways of raising fundsto keep our heads above water”.
Golf day fundraiserNacerodien says one such fundraising initiative
planned is a “city of champions” golf day event atthe Mowbray Golf Club on 17 April.Nacerodien is making an appeal to golf enthusi-
asts to bust out their nine-irons to help CTSA.“For many years the selected provincial and na-
tional softball players had to pay their own way totournament championships.“The poorer clubs are suffering due to their cash-
strapped coffers to travel to venues to play and hon-our fixtures, with the result that many defaultshave occurred in recent times and over the years.Clubs have been struggling and cannot afford to payfor transport.“Another aspect and bone of contention is that
some of our affiliated clubs have little or no equip-ment. Thus formany years theminnow sport codes,like softball, baseball, etc., failed to obtain assist-ance from the corporate world.”Nacerodien is confident that the fundraising
event could help ease the burden.He is appealing to potential sponsors and compa-
nies to partnerwith the organisation to donate priz-es and goody bag items.Companies are also invited to purchase green
putting branding packages, ranging from R4000 fora one four-ball hole, and on the green putting surfa-ces fromR10 000 toR35 000 for either silver, gold andplatinum sponsorship packages.Nacerodien says he was told that the Mowbray
Golf Clubhad gained a reputation for hardly havingto close the course due to adverse conditions duringthe wet season.The fundraising event invites golf enthusiasts to
play an 18-hole game in four-person teams.Entry for the tournament costs R1400 per four-
ball or R350 per player.V Interested parties and companies can contact Nacerodien on076 566 7774 or [email protected].

from disadvantaged communitiesgetting free entry. Registration willbe accepted at 08:00 on the beach oronline at www.wpsurfing.co.za.The Grom Games, which take
place in Port Elizabeth during theEaster weekend, is a platform to in-troduce newcomers to the sport and
support diversity. Cape Town Surf-riders have taken home the GromGames trophy for four years run-ning.“We are proud that we field teams
that win, but we’re just as proud oftheir diversity,” says coach CraigJohnson.“The trials and theGames bring to-
gether kids of all races and back-grounds to share the fun and powerof our oceans. At the same timewe’rebuilding the grassroots foundationfor the future of SA surfing.”With some funds already commit-
ted by Village Homes (Kommetjie)and SurfEars, the club still needs toraise R25 000.V Potential donors can visit the WP Surfingpage on Facebook or email [email protected].
