SEEPING SEWAGE CESSPOOL: the UCPA speaks
Candace King
candace.king@tametimes.co.za Following the front page story that featured in the tame TIMES Johannesburg South Tuesday 24 February 2015 edition, tame TIMES interviewed the United Cerebral Palsy Association of South Africa (UCPA) regarding the ongoing sewage problem which has plagued the Rockridgeview complex on Soutpansberg Drive in Oakdene. Situated in North Street on the corner of Main Street in Townsview, the UCPA have been battling with the sewage saga for years as they have continuously unblocked the drain but the problem persists. The drain is not situated on the UCPA’s property but on municipal ground that lies between the UCPA and the Rockridgeview complex. “We consistently get private plumbers to work on the drain but they urge that it’s not their job but rather that of the municipality’s,” explains Marie van den Berg, Executive Director of the UCPA. “The property has been operating since 1952 when the property was acquired and we have never had any water issues on the premises,” she adds. “Hilary Weed from the Rockridgeview complex will constantly

call us to say that the pipe is blocked. We then get it unblocked and for between four and 12 months we experience no issues. Then it blocks again so the problem is permanent one,” notes Morne van den Berg, Operations and Maintenance Manager at the UCPA. “We call the municipality continuously to look into the problem and they don’t assist accordingly – we never receive feedback or any official documentation from the municipality about the problem so there’s no proof,” says Morne. The UCPA highlighted that according to a test done, there is a crack somewhere in the pipeline, but the actual location of this crack is unknown. “The area where the pipe system lies is very rocky and steep so it’s not easy to rectify where the problem is situated,” explains Morne. “The municipality must fix this problem as we are in no financial position to do so ourselves. It seems that no one wants to get to the bottom of this,” says Marie. The UCPA currently cares for 45 children. Its operation is a 24hour-per-day and 365-days-per-year care unit. The children range from three years to 43 years of age, making the UCPA unique as the only organisation in the country serving cerebral palsy individuals from childhood right through to adulthood. “We hope this problem is solved soon so we can focus on what matters the most to us – the care of cerebral palsy individuals,” says Marie.

THREE SUSPECTS ARRESTED ON EIKENHOF ROAD On Monday 2 March at around 15:00 a community member witnessed three males breaking into a house in Peggy Vera Street, Kibler Park. The community member followed the suspects, who were driving in a white bakkie. After observing the direction they took, he contacted the police. Warrant Officer Kgautsi and Constable Mudau of Soweto Flying Squad waited for the suspect’s car along Eikenhof Road. When the police officer tried to stop the suspects’ vehicle, the suspects retaliated by trying to bump into the officers’ vehicle. The
police then fired shots at the suspects, who lost control of their vehicle and crashed into a wall. All three suspects aged between 36 and 46 were arrested and treated for minor injuries, and the property stolen during the housebreaking was found in their possession - so they were arrested for possession of suspected stolen property, as well as housebreaking and theft. SAPS would like to commend the community member for being vigilant and obtaining all the relevant information. Details: Mondeor SAPS, 265 Royal Park Drive, Mondeor, 011 433 5400

City Parks and JRA, where are you?
tame TIMES
HAS BEGUN A WAR ON
drugs : NE MI ETA PH AM TH ME L CR YS TA DANGEROUS DRUG, DANGEROUS MISCONCEPTIONS Democratic Alliance Councillor of Ward 124 Tyrell Meyers is naming and shaming various City of Johannesburg departments for failing to deliver basic services to residents in ward 124. He says both City Parks and the Johannesburg Road Agency (JRA) have not kept their promises to residents – the pavements in Kenilworth, Forest Hill and Turffontein continue to be neglected and pose numerous risks, as broken bottles, refuse and debris lie hidden in the long overgrowth, making them a haven for snakes. Children, he says, also have a hard time as the verges have not been cut for some time outside the schools. “I have sent the request on to officials at City Parks, with only one acknowledgement. I have further sent this request on to the MMC for Community Development, which is responsible for managing City Parks, to intervene. If there continues to be no action, I will then forward the correspondence on to the Executive
Mayor who is a resident in the South of Johannesburg,” says Meyers. “As for JRA, numerous reference numbers were logged manually with head office and on the Find and Fix app, to rectify the reinstatement of pavements in Leo Street, restoration of a kerb in the same street, fixing a flashing red robot in Springfield as well as a pothole on High Street.” “Only the robot has been fixed, eight days after it was logged on the app. This far exceeds the turnaround time of 90% fixed within 24 hours, let alone the pothole that needs to be fixed within three days which was logged on 10 February and is fast approaching its one-month anniversary,” adds Meyers. “The matter is now being taken up with the MMC of Transportation to address the shortcomings of JRA. It is unacceptable that residents are subjected to this poor performance of service by the City.” Details: Tyrell Meyers, 011 683 6410/082 572 8925
High school students begging for lifts poses a threat The Mondeor Community Policing Forum (CPF) has raised concerns regarding high school students begging for lifts: “From 14:30 onwards during weekdays Columbine Avenue is abuzz with scholars from several high schools in the area begging for lifts to Southgate Mall. Dangerous or not, this seems to be the norm in this area and appears to be getting worse by the day. In the light of this, there is an increase in complaints coming through from concerned residents. The exceptionally high speeding rate on Columbine Avenue also seems to be the norm – there is also a high accident rate on
this road due to speeding and driving under the influence. The Mondeor CPF appeals to residents in the area not to give these scholars a lift as this poses several threats. If you are in an accident and the scholar is injured or fatally wounded, you will be solely responsible. If you do not have a PDP licence to transport passengers or scholars you will be fined. It is also illegal to transport scholars on the back of a bakkie or in the boot of a vehicle. Do not put yourself at risk damaging your credibility while trying to help an unknown passenger,” warns the Mondeor CPF. Details: Michelle Pelser, 082 658 5009

6 March marked the commencement of the School Governing Body (SGB) Elections across the Gauteng province. The Gauteng Department of Education urges all parents to take charge of their children’s education by actively participating in the 2015 SGB Elections which will be taking place up until 28 March. This is an opportunity for all parents to have a say on who is elected to the SGB of their children’s school and possibly stand for nomination as well. SGBs are tasked with ensuring that schools are run efficiently. Their functions include: maintaining school infrastructure; determining the language policy and sport codes of schools; learner discipline; recruitment and recommendation of appropriately qualified personnel and determining school fees at fee-paying schools. “SGBs are an expression of our firm belief

that education is a societal responsibility,” said the MEC for Education in Gauteng, Mr Panyaza Lesufi. There are over 2100 schools participating in the SGB Elections this year. The outgoing members of the SGB started in 2012 and for the last three years, they have been actively engaged in managing schools as SGB members. By the time the election process is completed, there will be well over 24 000 newly elected SGB members. A total of 47 provincial observers and 47 Independent Electoral Commission monitors from head office will oversee the election process to ensure that it runs freely and fairly. There are also 500 volunteers across the province tasked with mobilising the community to take part in the 2015 SGB Election campaign. These are the third biggest elections after the National General and Local Government Elections. MEC Lesufi encouraged parents to take part in the elections. “The Gauteng provincial government has undertaken to radically transform and modernise the education system. This is a clarion call to all parents to take interest and have a say in how this process unfolds. I encourage parents to join hands with the Gauteng provincial government by taking an ardent interest in issues,” said MEC Lesufi.

Since the beginning of 2015, youth-focused environmental organisation Generation Earth has been in full force. From greening to cleaning to switching off and saving water in 2014, Generation Earth Glenvista High hands over the presidential title from Nicole Ferreira to Amaru Dalport for more environmental work for 2015. Glenvista High School hosted three schools that are currently putting their councils together. The Oprah Winfrey Leadership Academy have been involved with the organisation for the last four years and have a dedicated committee which shared their achievements at this meeting. Other community groups from the south attended the meeting with a desire to be inspired and to be a part of the Generation Earth south network. Each week since the start of the year, Generation Earth Founder Ella Bella Constantinides and her Generation Earth team have been visiting different schools hosting various regional meetings around the Gauteng area. The southern region is now up and running, with a new president who is filled with energy and boasting big goals for the year ahead. Nedbank and Tsogo Sun have committed to the Generation Earth programme for this year and will assist to impart knowledge and experience to the Generation Earth members from all the different schools. Constantinides is something of an expert herself on environmental issues having served as a Youth Ambassador for the United Nations Environmental Programme (UNEP) since 2009. Having worked with the international UNEP and Bayer partnership, travelled the world and attended several international conferences
10 March 2015
as a speaker and guest that mentors a group of other youth tied to UNEP. These youngsters have the environmental passion and the drive to make a difference through skills development; and with the opportunity and platform they are able to head up several Generation Earth councils in their own communities around South Africa and Africa as a whole. “Generation Earth was created out of passion, global vision and a drive to change the way people live and use the world’s resources. Working with these young people in schools and universities I can see they too hold the same passion and drive for changing behaviour and assisting society to make better decisions when it comes to energy usage, access to water and the problems within the waste industry. It’s an exciting programme to be part of and I’m honoured to meet these aspiring environmentalists every day,” said Constantinides.

WE SALUTE YOU It’s a brand that’s synonymous with the South, a household name that we all know and love – Calisto’s has grown from one restaurant established by Jorge Calisto in 1992 into a firm franchise that continues to expand. Part of this expansion is Senhor Calisto’s, a fast food franchise of the Calisto’s brand that specialises in flavourful flame-grilled chicken, seafood, pregos and burgers. With the first store having opened in 2012, the franchise has grown to 19 stores in just over two years, with many more in the pipeline. The Calisto’s brand is defined by its commitment to serving high quality, great tasting, affordable food using premium ingredients partnered with friendly service and a casual environment. Patrons have the option of sitting down or ordering to take away. Each store also offers a delivery option. Having personally visited the Bassonia store situated at the Comaro View Shopping Centre, I know that Senhor Calisto’s takes service, cleanliness and staff training seriously. “Our chicken is flame-grilled to perfection and we serve it within 15 to 20 munites,” explains Gareth Soma, franchise owner of Senhor Calisto’s and Mi-Vami Bassonia. Along with Jarryd Soma and Julian Cornofsky as franchise co-owners, Soma explains that the owners are completely involved in the business and that customer service, communication with clients, good turnaround times on food as well as well trained staff are Senhor Calisto’s
key ingredients. Soma said that their prized meals include a Full Chicken, Large Chips, and Four Rolls; Chicken/Beef Shuvarma; ¼ Chicken and Chips and a Chicken Burger and Chips. Apart from an extensive menu, customers have even further choice with the option of choosing between seven different flavours for their chicken basting. The brand continuously reinvents all-time favourites by giving each dish the Senhor Calisto’s touch. As their website says, don’t be chicken, explore and enjoy food. Eat your heart out. HEART SMART Senhor Calisto’s offers healthier meal options including chicken fillets and a Greek salad. For those who like to keep in shape, Senhor Calisto’s also offers a new healthier choice flavour.

MORE THAN 2000 FIGHTING CT FIRE More than 2000 people helped fight the fire that broke out in Muizenberg the weekend before last. This included 150 members of the WoF programme, 50 more from Volunteer Wildfires Services and 250 WoF firefigters from other provinces. A total of 11 helicopters, six fixed-wing bombers, and nine spotters were deployed to fight the 11 fires. About two million litres of water were dumped on the fire. Another fire broke out inside the Cape Point Nature Reserve on Wednesday. A total of 13 properties were affected. One city firefighter sustained burn wounds and 52 frail-care residents from the Noordhoek Retirement Village were treated for smoke inhalation. [iol.co.za]

HILLARY BREAKS CANADIANS URGED TO STOP FOO FIGHTERS FRONTMAN THE SILENCE “SPOCKING’’ THEIR BILLS TREATS A FAN
The Bank of Canada has pleaded with Star Trek fans to stop ‘’Spocking’’ their five dollar bills. Since the death of actor Leonard Nimoy, the original ‘’Spock,” Canadians have been marking their notes which feature the face of Canada’s seventh prime minister, Sir Wifrid Laurier, to look like the deceased actor.[scoopnest.com] US Democrat Hillary Clinton broke her silence on Wednesday as to why she used her personal email for work when she was Secretary of State. She stated on Twitter that she wanted the public to see her email and that she had asked the State to release them. This came hours after a congressional committee issued subpoenas of her emails with regard to an investigation on 11 September 2013 attack on a US diplomatic facility in Benghazi, Libya in which a US senator was killed.

LEEUWENHOF’S LUCKY AIDEN Visarend Gauteng Leeuwenhof student Aiden Smal was very excited to meet the Emirates Lions rugby team and run out on to the field with the players during the Saturday 28 February match against the DHL Stormers as part of the Super 15 Rugby tournament. He also had the privilege of placing the ball in the centre of the field prior to kickoff. Smal’s father entered his son into a competition which he won – the prize included a meet-and-greet with the Emirates Lions rugby team as well as the chance to carry the ball on to the field. Leeuwenhof is very proud of Smal, who jogged on to the field with pride.
