CRIME: BURGLARIES LEAVE SECURITY COMPLEX RESIDENTS FEARFUL
Safety fears in Bardale
RICHARD ROBERTS
@richardjohn_rj
R
ecent burglaries in the Bardale Village
Phase 1 security complex in Silver-
sands have left residents fearing for
their safety.
In one incident home owner Darryl Dryer
and his wife were asleep when two thieves
broke into their duplex.
The incident happened onFriday, 17April
at about 01:45, Dryer said.
He toldTygerBurgerhiswife heard anoise
emanating fromthebathroomandwokehim
up.
She heard a noise that sounded like the
toilet door closing. She then saw the door
handle go down, Dryer explained.
He said he noticed the silhouette of a per-
son on one of the walls. He noticed one of the
burglars on the veranda near his window
and heard one fiddling inside the bathroom.
Resident intruders
Dryer got up and saidhismovementmight
have disturbed the burglars from continu-
ing with the plans.
When I looked out of my window I saw
someone running down the road.
Dryer said he suspects the intruders re-
side in the complex. This is not someone
who jumped over electrical fencing, he
said. The thieves only managed to escape
with some perfume, Dryer said. He reported
the matter to the security on duty.
Fellow resident Francois Barnies said he
also lost some of his valuables after his
house was broken into.
When he returned home on Monday a
week ago he noticed something was not in
place. Whenmy wife entered the house she
saw the kitchen cupboard doors were open
and the main bedroom had been ransacked.
The thieves entered through the window.
Both of the couples rings were stolen along
with a laptop, DVD player and some cloth-
ing.
Barnies told TygerBurger four other
homes in the complex had also been broken
into over the past few weeks.
The incident at his house, he says, was re-
ported to the security, Mfuleni police and
the property managers.
According to Barnies the electric fence
surrounding the complex is out of order. He
was also informed that the CCTV cameras
are no longer operating.
No response
More security personnel need to be em-
ployed. They are too few for such a big com-
plex, he claims.
He said he fears the criminalsmay return.
Bardale Village Phase 1, according to its
developers, is known as the Vanilla Street
Homeowners Association (VSHOA).
The managing agent of the phase is Inte-
grated Housing Facilities Management.
Michael Bauer, portfolio manager for the
VSHOA, was approached for comment last
week but did not respond at the time of going
to print.

Land invasion high alert
RICHARD ROBERTS
@richardjohn_rj
L
ocal ward councillors have been
warned to be on the lookout for poten-
tial land invaders.
The chairperson for subcouncil 21, Stev-
en Vuba, told councillors at a subcouncil
meeting last week that unless they report
or act on land grabbers, more land will be
invaded as was the case in Kalkfontein re-
cently.
The invasion in Kalkfontein three weeks
ago was accompanied by a great deal of vio-
lence.
Several people from the Vrygrond in-
formal settlement and neighbouring areas
moved back onto an open piece of land after
which they had to be forcefully removed.
City law enforcement, metro police and
KuilsRiver policewere attackedby the land
invaders and several vehicles were pelted
with stones. Additionally, six houses at the
nearly completed Hamilton Estate were al-
so damaged.
Houses were set alight and tyres burnt.
Hugeparts of the roads leading into the area
also had to be closed for traffic.
On Wednesday Vuba requested council-
lors to be vigilant and not turn a blind eye
to land invaders.
Even if it does not occur in our area,
he said.
He added that councillors should act on
land invasions and report such incidents.
In his speech he said the City indicated
they would act against illegal land invaders
in Kalkfontein.
The City will use every available re-
source at its disposal to prevent land inva-
sions and will make sure those who are re-
sponsible for any incitement of violence,
land invasion and other criminal acts face
the full consequences of the law.
Majidie Abrahams, ANC PR councillor,
said people need to respect the rule of law
at all times.
If we do not respect it, we will find our-
selves on thewrong side of the law, he said.
Abrahams said there is one constitution
which governs all the countrys citizens and
all need to abide by it.
It is incumbent on all of us that this does
not happen again, he said.
Five land invaders were arrested during
the recent protest and land invasion and
charged with public violence.
They appeared in the Blue Downs Magis-
trates Court andwere released onwarning.
The City, along with the local police, are
currently monitoring the situation in Kalk-
fontein.
V Residents should contact the antiland invasion
unit on 0800 225 669with any information on pos
sible land invasions
One of the houses at the nearly completed Hamilton Estate near Kalkfontein was petrol
bombed by protesting land invaders three weeks ago. Last week subcouncil 21 chairperson,
Steven Vuba, asked councillors to be vigilant and report land invaders.

@dezzierorke
Aggressie teenoor hawelose mense in die
gemeenskap is nie n oplossing nie. Dit lok
bloot meer aggressie uit en is n bose kring-
loop.
S meen Marian Nieuwoudt, wyksraads-
lid wat al n geruime tyd besig is met ingry-
pingsplanne om die kwessie van haweloos-
heid in Brackenfell aan te spreek.
Volgens Nieuwoudt het sy ook in die laas-
te jaar n negatiewe verandering in die op-
trede van die hawelose mense opgemerk.
Baie van die mense sal nou openlik in
die parke ontlas, waar hulle dit voorheen
nie sou doen nie. Dieselfde geld vir seksue-
le dade wat openlik gepleeg word.
Volgens Nieuwoudt doen van die hawelo-
semense dit doelbewusmet die opset omdie
gemeenskap uit te lok.
Hulle weet dat hul gedrag walglik is en
dit is hul manier om terug te slaan. Dis hul
enigste mag en dis hul manier van s: Ek
bestaan.
Beplanning
Aspekte vanNieuwoudt se beplanning sal
binne die volgende ses maande in werking
tree wanneer haar wyk, wat Proteahoogte
insluit, twee Rent-a-Cops kry, befonds
deur die wyk self.
Die Rent-a-Cop-inisiatief wat n paar
jaar gelede deur die Stad Kaapstad van sta-
pel gestuur is, voorsien munisipale polisie-
manne om area-gebonde probleme in spesi-
fieke wyke aan te spreek.
Di twee wetstoepassers sal uitsluitlik
in wyk 8 werksaam wees en mag nie deur
die Stad uitgeroep word om in ander areas
te werk nie, verduidelik sy.
Gevolglik sal munisipale polisiring, wat
juis kriminaliteit met betrekking tot hawe-
lose mense aanspreek, verskerp word in
Proteahoogte.
Nieuwoudt bel ook eersdaags n vergade-
ring met Kaapstad se uitvoerende burge-
meester, Patricia de Lille, met die doel om
maatskaplike ondersteuning vanuit nasio-
nale regeringskringe te verkry.
Haweloosheid is n maatskaplike pro-
bleem en moet as sulks ook op di vlak aan-
gespreek word. Daar is egter net nie meer
n doeltreffende maatskaplike stelsel be-
skikbaar nie.
Maatskaplike werkers se werkslading is
doodeenvoudig te groot enhulle kan dus nie
meer terapeutiese werk doen nie. Dis eer-
der n geval van hulle prioritiseer net tus-
sen krisisse deur, s sy en voeg by dat son-
der die nodige maatskaplike vangnet, die
probleem van hawelose mense in woon-
buurte net groter gaan word.
Swaarkry kan nie weggedryf word nie
en dit sal nooit net weggaan nie, s sy.
Nieuwoudt s dat die meerderheid hawe-
lose mense in Brackenfell al baie jare hier
woon en selfs hier grootgeword het.
Daar is byvoorbeeld n groep hawelose
mense in die sakesentrum wat reeds sedert
hul kinderdae daar bedel en in omliggende
strate slaap.
Hulle is deur die gemeenskap grootge-
maak. Nou wil dieselfde gemeenskap wat
hulle vir jare lank al aan die lewe hou, hulle
verstoot en verpletter. Skielik is hulle nie
meer hier welkom nie. Maar die realiteit is,
hulle is nrens welkom nie en daar is ook
vir hulle geen ander heenkome nie, s sy.
Veldtogte
Verskeie plaaslike veldtogte onder lei-
ding stuur van die plaaslike maatskaplike
ondersteuningsdiens Teahmo in samewer-
kingmet die Okavango-sakekamer enMES,
is reeds die afgelope jaar in Brackenfell ge-
hou om die gemeenskap te onderrig in hoe
om die kwessie aan te spreek.
Die gemeenskap hou aan kla oor die ber-
gies in hulwoonbuurte,maar bemagtig hul-
le terselfdertyd met aalmoese. Mense los
selfs kos en klere op hul asblikke. Wat ver-
wag hulle dan?
Gedurende Paas- en Kersfees word groot
uitreikegerelwaarhawelosemensevir die
dag gevoed word, maar vir die res van die
jaar word hulle vergeet.Die goeie dade en
goeie bedoelings lei uiteindelik net daar-
toe dat diemense op straat bly, s sy. Hul-
le lewe op die straat word dus bemagtig.
Nieuwoudt moedig inwoners aan om eer-
der by dieTeahmo-veldtog betrokke te raak.
Koop eerder n voedselkoepon en gee dit
vir die hawelose persoon op die straathoek.
Sodoende kan hy vir hom n warm bord kos
kry en terselfdertyd ook in n maatskaplike
rehabilitasieprogram opgeneem word.
VOmbetrokke te raak by Teahmose koeponveldtog,
bel Nick by 083 655 2767 of Elmari by 084 549 9152.
Aggressie is n
die oplossing
Van die hawelose mense maak die area in en
om Brackenfellstasie hul slaapplek.

Members from Volunteer Wildfire Services
deployed to fight wildfires often place their
own lives in danger when doing so.PHOTO:
ANDREW HAGEN
Local volunteers endure life
threatening hazards
Following the recent helicopter crash in
theBainskloofPass inwhich two firefight-
ing volunteers lost their lives, the impor-
tant role these rescue workers play in
dousing fires and saving lives came under
the spotlight.
The two volunteers who lost their lives
while battling a fire are Darrell Rea (39)
and Jastun Visagie (23), both crew mem-
bers of Working on Fire (WOF).
They were fighting fires in the moun-
tains near Wellington when their helicop-
ter crash landed.
Several fires have hit the Cape Peninsu-
la over the last two months. One fire
which lasted for more than four days rav-
aged the south Peninsula. Another which
also lasted days broke out in the Jonker-
shoek Mountain outside Stellenbosch in
the Boland.
Firefighters from City of Cape Towns
Fire and Rescue Services as well as WOF
a government funded firefighting relief
and support organisation incurred inju-
ries during some of these call-outs.
Another groupof brave individualswho
frequentlyput their lives indangerare the
members of the Volunteer Wildfire Servi-
ces.
Peter Wynne, crew leader at the Volun-
teerWildfire Services, said their firefight-
ers are dedicated volunteers who give
their time to safeguard the sensitive biodi-
versity of the Western Cape.
There is no standard answer to the ques-
tion why theyve joined the Volunteer
Wildfire Services, he said.
Its about passion, discipline, training,
beingwith like-minded people, even about
the adrenaline rush.
Broadly speaking, uncontrolled fires
are structural fires and fires in nature, he
explained. Whereas municipal fire servi-
ces mostly attend to structural fires in
buildings, Volunteer Wildfire Services
role is that of wildfire suppression.
They operate from their Newlands,
Jonkershoek and South Peninsula sta-
tions.
Only with training, discipline and
teamwork can we take on the challenges
that wildfires bring, says Peter.
Our training includes, among others,
wildfire suppression, firefighting equip-
ment, map work, radios, 4x4 driving
skills, rope work and first aid.
There are no heroes on the fire line.
Were only doing what we believe in. And
we do it as a team, he stated.
Volunteer Wildfire Services is current-
ly recruiting for active firefighters and
members who provide support services.

S
owat 90 Wesbank-ouers het verlede
week dwarsdeur die nag buitekant n
laerskool tougestaan in n poging om
hul kinders vir die 2016-skooljaar te regi-
streer.
Die groep het verlede Maandagmiddag
by die Primre Skool Hoofweg begin tou-
staan.
Allistair Sauer, skoolhoof, het ges regi-
strasies vir die skool se gr. R-klas is Dins-
dagoggend geopen.
OuerswouookdieDinsdagaandbuite die
skool tou staan, di keer omhul kinders vir
die gr.1-klas in te skryf.
Heelwat mas en pas het die koue Maan-
dagnag trotseer. Oorkant die skoolhek op
n oop stuk veld het sommiges n vuur ge-
maak, vertel Mario Adams, n ouer.
Daar is glo ook deur die loop van die nag
in die gebied geskiet, maar selfs dt het nie
die groep huiswaarts laat keer nie.
Die mense was skrikkerig, maar ons is
al gewoond daaraan, het n ouer aan Ty-
gerBurger vertel. Sowat sewe skote is om-
trent 03:00 in die gebied afgevuur.
Toebroodjies
Om die koue te oorleef het meeste ouers
vir hulle kos ingepak. Toebroodjies, enso-
voorts, s Adams, wat Dinsdagoggend een
van die eerstes was om sy vyfjarige seun
te registreer. Ek was nommer 21 op die
lys, vertel hy. Hy s: Die skool neem net
30kinders invirAfrikaans en 30 virEngels.
Die ander wat nie geregistreer is nie, gaan
op diewaglys.Adams is egter nog nie heel-
temal verseker of die registrasie sy seun se
plekwaarborg nie. Hulle het ges hulle sal
ons laat weet as daar plek is. Ons wou toe
by die hoof weet wat was die doel daarvan
om deur die nag te staan? Maar ons moet
dit doen. Ons wil ons kinders in die skool
h. Hy voeg by: Di wat op die waglys ge-
kom het, was ontsteld. Maar hulle is gekal-
meer met n paar sagte woorde.
Ouers het ook Dinsdagaand buite die
skool saamgedrom.
Veronica Jansen, n gemeenskapwerker,
s hulle is egter daarteen gewaarsku en
aangemoedig om terug te keer nahul huise.
Die gebied is te gevaarlik, veral daardie
deel van Wesbank, vertel Jansen.
Gehelp
n Lys met al die mense se name is saam-
gestel en hulle is die Woensdag volgens die
lys gehelp. Tercia Gertse, nog n ouer, s:
Dis net by Hoofweg wat dit so gaan. Ek
weet nie waaromnie, maar baie van die ou-
ers wil hul kinders daar inskryf.
Gertse het reeds twee kinders wat by Pri-
mre Skool Hoofweg skool gaan.
Dis n baie goeie skool. Die kinders se
dissipline is goed en hulle dra hul uniform
met trots.
Gertse hoop dat daar vir haar derde kind
ook plek sal wees. Sy was Maandag geluk-
kig genoeg om vroegtydig in die tou te
staan. Ek was derde in die tou. My kind
is geregistreer en ons is gevra omAugustus
weer skool toe te kom om die juffrou te
sien. Sauer s ouerswat deurdienag staan
om hul kinders te registreer, plaas hul le-
wens in gevaar. Hy s die verskynsel is al
vir n geruime tyd n probleem.
Maar dis die ouers se keuse waar hulle
hul kind wil inskryf. Enige persoon, maak
nie saak waar hy bly nie, kan by die skool
registreer, s hy. Adams s hoewel daar
ander skole in die gebied is, is dit te gevaar-
lik om hul kinders elders in te skryf. Die
bende baken die gebiede af."
Sauer s elke ouer wie se kind geregi-
streer is, sal later n brief ontvang om te s
of die kind aanvaar is.
Ouers trotseer koue
nag vir registrasie

Hometown hero: Blackheath 400
metre hurdle athlete Lindsay
Hanekom was given a warm welcome
this past weekend after achieving a
gold medal in his sports code in
Bloemfontein recently. Lindsay, who
matriculated from Blackheath High
School in 2011, is the current
under23 junior South African
champion. He obtained a personal
best in 400 metre hurdles and also
obtained gold medals in the 4x100
metres and 4x400 metres. Several
residents lined the streets of
Blackheath on Saturday afternoon to
welcome him back and cheer as he
entered the area in a convertable
vintage car. A ceremony was later
held in a park in Tafelberg Road.
Lindsay currently studies at the
University of Pretoria.

F
actory workers and business owners
in the Blackheath industrial area
might soon be driving on better roads,
improving their skills, or making use of a
new and improved taxi rank.
These are just few of the suggestions put
forward by role-players from the Black-
heath City Improvement District (CID) re-
cently in an initial report on plans to up-
gradeand improve the light industrial area.
The report forms part of the City of Cape
Towns department of economic develop-
ments Blackheath Business Retention and
Expansion Programme (BR&E).
The programme seeks to improve indus-
trial areas across the city with the help of
the business and factory owners. The pro-
gramme is also initiated in Retreat, Philip-
pi and Bellville, said programme coordina-
tor Gerswhin Gouldien addressing a sub-
council meeting last week.
The report outlines key findings and rec-
ommendations which include improving
business leadership in the area, upgrading
important infrastructure, making informa-
tion about skills development initiatives
more widely available, synchronising sup-
ply chain management process among
business, as well as protecting the industri-
al character of the area.
Gouldien said department officials went
door to door to canvas businesses.
He told councillors the Blackheath indus-
trial area is ideally located and provides job
opportunities to people from across sub-
council 21.
Following several meetings with role-
players and site visits, the plans have been
drawn up and now need implementation,
Gouldien said.
He said the department and CID want to
look at how and where the subcouncil can
assist in expanding business in the area.
As we know, it is very difficult to attract
businesses these days. That is whywe rath-
erwant to try and support the existing busi-
ness in the area, Gouldien said.
The CID, he said, indicated infrastruc-
ture requirements such as upgrading
Range Road a main route.
We are also looking at why we cannot
have a proper taxi rank in the area.
He said with the aid of the local subcoun-
cil these issues can be dealt with easily, al-
though implementation would be over a pe-
riod of years.
We want council to use their political
muscle and help assist businesses.
Ward councillor Bert van Dalen said he
welcomed the departments programme
and the plans.
Wewant to thank the department for do-
ing this. There is a lot ofwork thatwent into
compiling the report and a lot of role-play-
ers had their fingers in the pie, he added.
Majidie Abrahams, ANC PR councillor,
said while the council generally welcomes
and support such initiatives to improve job
creation, one also need to determine what
the costs involved will be.
The business plans have been compiled,
but what is the financial implications for
the council, he asked.
Gouldien said the actual costs have not
yet been finalised.
A follow-up meeting is scheduled to take
place later this month.
Plans afoot to
rejuvenate
industrial area
