UPDATE YOUR CELL RECORDS & RESCUE WIN!
How safe is your complex?
D
oes living in a complex give you a false sense of security? More and more units in complexes are being broken into. The problem is that once the criminals have gained access to the complex, it is likely that they will break into more than one unit, as well as any vehicles they may come across. On 23rd and 24th February two units in a complex in Bartlett were broken into, but the suspect was unlucky on the 24th when the resident caught him. In many of the recent incidents, throughout the various Precincts, the suspects are breaking in through the bathroom window, which indicates that the suspects are possibly young or relatively small. How do they gain access to the complex? Believe it or not it is often very simple and effortless, thanks to the negligence of some of the residents. They can drive in behind you if you don’t wait for the gate to close. They will park at the gate in the hope that
ABP
the first person who comes along will open for them. They will buzz several units and eventually someone will open for them. The criminals have also been known to ‘move into’ a complex, giving them free access to come and go when they please. People leave valuables clearly visible in their vehicles overnight, some don’t even lock their vehicles. Do you ever question anyone wandering around the complex? If you have a guard at the main gate, is there a procedure for the guard as to who he can let in and what he should do before allowing them entry? It is easy for someone to say they’ve come to install or repair something at a particular unit. Maybe you need to consider beefing up your security. One option is to install CCTV cameras. Perhaps have off-site monitoring. There are many systems available which allow you to control who goes in and out of your complex. Something worth considering!
If you need some advice on your security, please send an email to info@thepcn.co.za and we can arrange for someone to do an assessment and provide your complex with recommendations. It’s time for the community to take in interest and do something about the safety and security of themselves and their families. Stop making it so easy for the criminals and maybe then they’ll go looking for greener pastures.
National Strike – 7 March
at Nedlac on the question of labour," said Craven. "Cosatu is therefore calling on all workers to support the socio-economic protest action by engaging in various forms of protest." This involves work stoppages, rallies, marches and lunchtime pickets from as early as February 29. Cosatu called for people to boycott businesses that used labour brokers. It also wants the withdrawal of provident funds invested in businesses that use labour brokers. Craven said the federation would assess the programme of action and decide on the way forward after the strike, but that if necessary
Cosatu are set to go ahead with a planned national strike on March 7 against labour brokers after attempts to broker a deal at Nedlac failed. Congress of SA Trade Union's spokesperson Patrick Craven said the protected strike was necessary for the "effective resolution of this matter". "The National Economic Development and Labour Council's section 77 standing committee has now confirmed that there is a deadlock between the social partners
IPCP
the duration of the strike could be extended. SAPA – 15 February 2012 This is likely to be the first of many strikes planned for this year. NUMSA are also expected to take strike action later in March, followed by the security industry. Our business precincts in the Boksburg area have already made contingency plans, in conjunction with the SAPS, in the event of strike action, and an appropriate procedure has been drafted. A meeting was scheduled for businesses in the Apex area on Tuesday 28 February 2011 to discuss this issue.

A
lthough crime in our area has been relatively stable in recent months, we experienced 3 armed robberies in Atlasville during February, which does not bode well. There were 2 separate incidents where school
ACP
children walking in the street were robbed of their cell phones. There would appear to be criminals driving around in our street hoping to catch people unawares. Please be extra vigilant when you approach your driveway, especially at night. A word of warning once again when drawing cash from the bank. There have been a number of incidents recently where people have been followed home and robbed at gunpoint.
NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN THAT
RCP
RYNMORE COMMUNITY PRECINCT will be holding its Annual General Meeting at 19h00 on Monday 19 March 2012 at Rynfield Primary School, Malherbe Street, Rynfield
This is your opportunity to ask questions, make suggestions and participate in what is happening in your suburbs. Make an effort to attend and give us your support. Here we are again at the end of February already. It's amazing how time flies! February saw a rise in armed house robberies and hijackings, which is of serious concern for us. Theft of motor vehicles and theft out of motor vehicles is also consistently high. We really need to be more alert about where we park our cars and more importantly, if the pavement is your only option, please make sure that all valuables are removed. At the top of the list now are Toyota Hiluxes and Fortuners. In excess of 12 were taken in the last week. Apparently the engines fit exactly into a Toyota Quantum. There were a couple of great recoveries as well as arrests last week, also including some "chop shops" being busted. We must give a word of thanks to the Authorities, SAPS, EMPD, all Tracking Companies, who put their lives on the line every day, so that we can be a bit more safe when we arrive home and leave home. The number of housebreakings has also increased, with mainly plasma/flat screen TVs and laptops being stolen.

Left to right: Deon Tucker, Kevin Froneman (Chairman), Larry Green and Tony Winterscale As far as the ongoing Project regarding the flooding situation in Atlasville, we wish to take this opportunity to thank our Ward Councillor, Andre du Plessis, and Regional Director, Philip du Plessis, for keeping us informed of progress. We received the following report on 9 February 2012. Quote 1. The consultants are still busy with the designs. We are having a meeting with them on Thursday to address outstanding issues. 2. A landscape Architect (Alan Cooper from Outer Space Planning & Design cc) has been appointed on an ‘as and when required’ basis for stormwater projects in the region. He will oversee the landscaping related work for the
Atlasville project. He must also assist with the appointment of a Landscape Contractor for this and other projects. 3. The intention is to use one of our “as and when” Roads & Stormwater contractors for the earthworks and stormwater related parts of the project. These contractors are scheduled for appointment towards the end of February. 4. It appears that there is a hiccup with the issuing of the Water Use Licence for the project. The consultants are following up. 5. In summary, we anticipate that work will commence in late April or May on the project. Unquote Here’s hoping this project will put an end to our flooding worries.
WARD 28 COULD BE THE BEST IN THE EAST, SAYS DA COUNCILLOR A Democratic Alliance (DA) Benoni Councillor is determined to make her ward the best in the Ekurhuleni Metro. Clr Mary Goby has appealed to residents to help her make Ward 28 in Benoni tops across the length and breadth of the East Rand by keeping their pavements clean and tidy. "I'd like to appeal to residents to ensure that they follow the Ekurhuleni Metro’s policy for grass cutting," said Goby this week. "This policy stipulates that grass planting and cutting in residential areas is the responsibility of the
residents themselves. Environmental Services will only cut the grass adjacent to Council and State owned properties and in industrial areas. "Let’s beautify our town and keep the grass on our pavements neat and tidy. Let’s make Ward 28 the best Ward in Ekurhuleni!" Goby said residents who were unsure of the policy could contact the Parks Department directly on 011-999-6881. "The Parks Department is busy cutting the grass in all parks in Ward 28. "Our ward would look fabulous if all residents also did their bit on their own pavements."
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CALL CLR. MARY GOBY ON 082 679 7109.
Please ensure that you do not leave your laptops, handbags and cell phones close to a window. These items are often taken without the criminals actually setting foot in your home. They simply bend/damage the burglar proofing and take these items out through the window. We also cannot stress enough the importance of having copies of your maids and gardeners identity documents. It is extremely important, especially when there is a break-in and they disappear suddenly. We appeal to our residents not to hire workers that are not from SA. There is also a hefty fine that you would have to pay if you are caught employing them. Keep the grass/pavement area outside your home clear. Pick up anything that should not be there – no matter what it is. Also check that there is nothing tied to a tree. Criminals are known to ‘mark’ properties. If you are at home during the day, keep an eye out for anything suspicious happening in the street and alert the Control Room on 0861 425 493 or 011-425-4933 if you see anything suspicious. With a concerted effort by all our residents, we CAN make Farrarmere a safer suburb. Yours in Community Safety

Director: Chris Gorak Produced By: 20th Century Fox Cast: Emile Hirsch, Olivia Thirlby & Max Minghella
A apocalyptic thriller centering on the fight for survival waged by five youths who find themselves stranded in Moscow during an alien invasion. As the invisible extra-terrestrials absorb all of Earth's energy and life forms, finding a means of escaping the unstoppable attackers becomes a seemingly impossible task. Extremely undeveloped and quickly produced, they really should have put the time and effort in instead of trying to make this into a huge cash cow. Many continuity mistakes and bad acting result in a film that only has it's location as a novelty.
