KRAGTARIEWE: KAAP HET MEER BETAAL AS WAT NERSA VOORSTEL

Publiek moet ingryp DESIRÉE RORKE @dezzierorke

K

apenaars betaal deur hulle ore vir krag.

So meen die aksiegroep Stop COCT wat ’n ernstige beroep op die publiek doen om die energiereguleerder (Nersa) vir publieke vergaderings te nader.

Kaapstad se kragheffings is vanjaar met 8.8% verhoog.

Dié heffing van R150 per maand is verlede

jaar op 1 Julie ingestel vir alle eiendomme met ’n munisipale waarde van R1 miljoen wat voorafbetaalde kragmeters gebruik. Eiendomme met ’n waarde van meer as R400 000 wat nie voorafbetaalde kragmeters gebruik nie word oor dieselfde kam geskeer.

Die heffing is vanjaar vanaf 1 Julie verhoog na R163.50. “En dít na groot publieke omstredenheid en besware,” sê Sandra Dickson van Stop COCT. “Nuwe waardasies het ook baie eiendomme oor die R1 miljoen kerf gestoot,” sê sy.

Die afgelope paar weke het Nersa soortgelyke heffings in Johannesburg en Tshwane ondersoek wat dié stede nou ook in hul nuwe begroting vir 2019/2020 wou instel.

“Na die ondersoek het die Johannesburg se stadsraad besluit om die heffing te skrap en Tshwane is sewe dae kans gegee om hul berekeninge aan Nersa te verduidelik,” sê Dickson.

Stad volg nie Nersa se voorstel Tesame met die vasgestelde R150 kraghef-

fing van die 2018/2019 finansiële jaar, het die publiek in Kaapstad ook tot en met 18% meer betaal vir krag as wat dit in dieselfde jaar deur Nersa vir die Stad Kaapstad vasgestel is. Kraggebruikers onderworpe aan die sogenaamde huishoudelike of domestic tarief, wat tussen 0-600 kilowatt-uur (kWh) per maand gebruik, het R1.82 per eenheid betaal, terwyl Nersa ’n tarief van R1.58 voorgestel het. Dit is 15.5% meer as Nersa voorgestel het.

Police operations yield successes S

everal disruptive crime prevention operations were recently executed in the Blue Downs Cluster.

A large number of police officials were deployed in the Delft area to help in the fight against crime.

A few roadblocks were held at various points in the area, and many houses were identified and searched for drugs and firearms, and several stop-and-search operations were executed in the streets.

According to Warrant Officer November Filander, police spokesperson, they witness

a reduction in crime during the operation.

“There was a visible reduction of crime in the Delft policing precinct, due to the heavy police presence and other law enforcement agencies like law enforcement, metro police and traffic department. A huge number of people were arrested in Belhar, Kuils River, Kleinvlei, Mfuleni, Bellville South and Ravensmead for possession of tik, mandax tablets and dagga. Others were arrested for possession of dangerous weapons like knives, and possession of firearms and ammunition. Police also arrested people for pos-

VERVOLG VAN BLADSY 1 Dieselfde geld vir kraggebruikers in ander kategorieë (sien tabel).

Die 8.8% kragtariefverhoging vir die 2019/2020 finansiële jaar, wat reeds op 1 Julie vanjaar in werking getree het, is egter minder as die voorgestelde Nersatarief van 13%.

“Die Stad het heel moontlik gesien dat hul tariewe buitensporig hoog was en dat hul werklike kostes nie dieselfde buitensporige tarief verhogings van vorige jare verder kon motiveer nie,” meen Dickson.

Die tabel is opgestel deur Mike Heyns van Stop COCT, soos dit op die Nersa en Stad Kaapstad se webtuistes aangedui is.

Onderburgemeester verduidelik Ian Neilson, onderburgemeester en die burgemeesterskomiteelid vir finansies, het Maandag 15 Julie bevestig dat die Stad nog wag op formele kommunikasie (goedkeuring) van Nersa, met betrekking tot die Stad se 2019/2020 tariefverhogings wat reeds deur die stadsraad op 29 Mei goedgekeur is.

“Die Stad se tariewe is deur die stadsraad goedgekeur ingevolge die Wet op Munisipale Finansiële Bestuur, wat ook verpligtend is. Die stad se tariewe is (vanjaar) laer as die aanduidende munisipale verhoging wat toegelaat word, aangesien ons die begroting gesny het om die tariewe so laag as moontlik te hou,” sê Neilson. Hy het egter nie kommentaar gelewer oor verlede jaar se tariewe wat Nersa aanbe-

session of stolen property, reckless and negligent driving, drunk driving, assault, theft, robbery, contravention of court orders for domestic violence, and theft of a motor vehicle,” says Filander.

In Delft, officers followed up information about an illegal firearm at a house in Forthworth Street, The Hague. “During their search, they found a Musgrave rifle with 16 rounds and one empty cartridge inside the ceiling of the house. Two male suspects aged 38 and 41 years old were arrested for illegal possession of a firearm and ammunition.

In an unrelated incident, officers on vehicle patrol duties searched a 53-year-old man in Delft and found a firearm with ammunition in his possession, after he could not produce the firearm license at that stage. The man was taken to the Delft Police Station for further investigation, where it was later established that he was indeed the owner of the firearm and was released. By law, valid firearm license holders must always keep their firearm licenses on them, to reduce unnecessary lawful complications,” says Filander.

Blue Downs Cluster Commander, Major General Vincent Beaton, commended the police, Metro Police, Law Enforcement officers, Traffic Police, neighbourhood watch and safety structures, as well as reservists, for their input, dedication and commitment in ensuring that the perpetrators of crime are brought to justice.

Groundsman finds R1.2m error in water account D

avid Arendorf at Symphony Way Community Day Centre (CDC) is not an ordinary general assistant.

He is a handyman and groundsman that can fix and maintain anything at the facility and recently saved Symphony Way CDC more than R1,2m on its municipal water bill.

Due to the high water bill at the facility during the previous months, Arendorf decided to check and see how the water meter reading is calculated.

To him, getting such a high water bill was totally unacceptable.

After looking into the matter, Arendorf found that the water meter reading was taken incorrectly and that there was a large discrepancy between the water meter reading and the reading indicated on the water bill.

Arendorf informed his supervisors, who queried the meter reading and bill with the municipality. An understanding was reached where the facility’s bill was credited.

“This was a team effort between James Roberts, Geraldine Naude and myself. All I did

David Arendorf was to take the water reading and the management followed it up,” says Arendorf.

James Roberts, an administration clerk at Symphony Way CDC says: “David is always eager to assist with anything. He is passionate about his work and his initiative has a great impact on the facility.” “He is everything that Symphony Way CDC needs,

In commemoration of Mandela Day, the Bonteheuwel Central Athletic’s Club, also known as BCAC, will be hosting a Running Shoes Project on Saturday 20 July with the aim to collect 500 pairs of shoes and distribute it to underprivileged athletes in and around Cape Town.

Mellisa Abels says due to the very cold winter season, warm shoes are an essential part of an athlete’s journey.

The event starts at 09:00 and will take place at Cedar Primary School in Bonteheuwel.

ranging from maintenance, groundsman, plumber and so on. He is our go-to guy and was instrumental during the load shedding period where he worked with the diesel engine and took measurements of the oil and maintenance of the generator,” says Naude.

Arendorf resides in Leiden, Delft and is passionate about helping his community and wants to ensure that they are happy when they leave the facility.

He is the father of five boys and wants to be an example and role-model to them. His goal is to go back to school to finish his matric and acquire a driver’s licence.

“It’s hard out there, especially if you do not have a matric certificate. I want to encourage my boys to stay in school. I also need a driver’s licence so that I can drive the facility vehicles and assist my facility better,” says Arendorf.

He feels that Symphony Way CDC supports him to achieve his goals. “We work as a family and the management always encourage me to do the best that I can. I am being encouraged to finish my studies in order to assist at the facility,” Arendorf says.

Three wounded men were rushed to Tygerberg Hospital in Parow this past weekend after being shot. It is unclear as to whether the shooting incident is gang-related.

The trio was initially taken to the Fire and Rescue Station in Adam Tas Avenue, Belhar where they received treatment until the Metro ambulance services arrived.

Jermaine Carelse, Fire and Rescue Services spokesperson, says the three arrived there at approximately 10:30. Fire and Rescue Services personnel rendered medical attention to the three, Carelse says. One of them was critical.

The police attended the scene.

The three men, aged 31, 27 and 26 years respectively, was admitted to the hospital on Sunday 14 July, hospital spokesperson, Laticia Pienaar, confirmed earlier this week.

She says the trio suffered gunshots to the head, back and left arm respectively. “They are currently in a stable condition,” Pienaar says.

A police spokesperson for the Mfuleni police cluster confirmed the shooting. “Attempted murder cases were registered at the police for further investigation. The motive and the circumstances of this incident is still unknown, and are being investigated,” the spokesperson says.

Siyabulela Malo, Western Cape police spokesperson, says the shooting incident occurred in Alabama Street, Extension 13.

“According to reports, Belhar police officers responded to a complaint at the fire station where they found the three men, shot and wounded. All three of the suspects was transported to hospital for medical treatment,” Malo says. No arrests have yet been made, but detectives are following up on possible leads to bring the perpetrators to book, Malo concludes.

For Mandela Day, the Elim Night Shelter in Elsies River Industrial will be hosting an event to feed and clothe homeless people on Saturday 20 July. The day starts at 10:00.

Cape Quads celebrate first birthday THABANG KUAHO @thab_journo

D

ubbed as the Cape Quads, Bungcwele; Buchule; Bubele and Bunono Mafenuka celebrated their first birthday at the KFM 94.5 studios in Sea Point on Wednesday 10 July.

The quadruplets, from Khayelitsha, were born through caesarian section on Friday 6 July at Tygerberg Hospital and weighed 980g, 1 010g, 830g and 1 030g respectively.

They were hospitalised in Tygerberg Hospital, but were discharged after weighing 2 040g, 1 770g, 1 580g and 1 980g.

The quads were 23-year-old Inganathi Mafuneka’s first children. She said her first year as a mother has been a rollercoaster ride. “As much as I enjoy spending time with my bundles of joy, it is sometimes difficult to get enough sleep because they are now starting to demand my attention,” Mafuneka said.

They are now getting to a stage where they start to recognise her as a mother, which often leads to them not wanting to be held by anyone

else, she said.

The second-year Information Technology student at Richfield College says she often finds it difficult to make time for both studying and taking care of her children, but her strong support system makes it easier for her to attend to her studies.

“My mother and siblings take turns in taking care of the children. That gives me the time to focus on my school work, at least,” she says.

She said the lesson she takes away from her short experience as a mother is that she has to be patient with them, adding she cannot wait to see her two boys and two girls grow up and share in their milestones and achievements.

When the quads were born last year, KFM 94.5 breakfast show hosts Darren Simpson, Sherlin Barends and Sibongile “Sibs” Mafu immediately adopted the roles of “honorary” aunts and uncle, offering longterm support to the quads. This saw the station hosting a baby shower for Mafuneka and the babies with a R10 000 monthly donation from LottoStar in the first year and a year’s worth of supplies from Clicks stores

through the Clicks Helping Hands Trust initiative.

KFM programme manager Stephen Werner said that, with the quads celebrating their first birthday, the team could not let the milestone pass without throwing the city’s biggest first birthday party with almost one million people “attending”.

To ensure that Mafuneka continues to take care of her children without having to worry about covering her school fees, Community Chest, a non-profit, professional fundraiser, community investor and development organisation awarded Mafuneka R35 000 to help pay for her studies.

Community Chest communications officer Desiré Goliath said the organisation was thrilled to be part of the special day.

She said the organisation will continue to support Mafuneka. “Once you are our recipient, we will follow you and keep supporting you,” she said.

Mafuneka said she was grateful for the bursary as she was constantly worried about covering her fees.

Ruff Tung celebrates real women LISA LOTTERING @demi_lisa

A

size-inclusive brand that considers fit and different body types is the embodiment of the Cape Town clothing brand, Ruff Tung owned by Bridget Pickering and Ludwig Bausch.

Based in Kenilworth, the Ruff Tung Style101 can be described as bold prints, easy styled and always sparkling. The brand focuses on seasonal best sellers and rework those special pieces into the next season, yet keeping it fresh and appealing.

Bridget says they have many curve conversations with women to understand what they feel comfortable in and what highlights their best features. “This is the psychology of our creative process,” says Bridget. She says their first mentor in the

fashion game was Paul Botha, the founder of Ruff Tung.

Bridget left for London in her 20s and had a career in womenswear for 15 years, while Ludwig worked at The 031 and Vodacom Durban July, which opened many doors and ultimately landed him his first job working for Paul and he later ran his design studio. “I grew up slap bang in Liberty of London’s design world where Vivienne Westwood, Issey Miyake, Helmut Lang and Armani ruled supreme and the iconic Kate Moss who was the face of everything,” says Bridget.

Luwdig says international design heavyweights including Alexander McQueen, Gareth Pugh, Iris Von Herpen for their innovative aesthetic are his role models.

The brand, celebrating three years of Ruff Tung Inclusive, now proudly presents

Get your Fearlessly Female tickets now Join the Ruff Tung duo, along with celebrity chef Jenny Morris and hillarious Cape Town comedian Mel Jones at the Fearlessly Female event presented by TygerBurger and Spec-Savers on Woman’s Day (9 August) at Zevenwacht Wine Estate.

With Morris cooking up a storm, Jones keeping the audience entertained and stunning fashion on show from Ruff Tung, this is sure to be a memorable morning.

Each woman buying a ticket to the event will also be supporting women empowerment with a portion of the proceeds going to the non-profit organisation (NPO) Women4Women. Run by for-

mer Miss SA Cindy Nel, Women4Women focuses on female empowerment and community upliftment. Their main goal is to improve the lives of the less fortunate and previously disadvantaged women of South Africa by providing skills, training and mentorship.

V The event starts at 09:00 for 09:30.

Morning snacks and a light lunch will be served and there will be plenty of prizes up for grabs – including sunglasses from Spec-Savers, make-up hampers from Essence, and more.

V Tickets cost R350 at www.webtickets.co.za or Pick n Pay. Tickets are limited so make sure you don’t miss out.

Blue Blood, a trans-seasonal collection inspired by the royal-blooded women who influence our fashion direction each season.

“Blue Blood brings with its nobility, prestige, power, and influence, a token of us raising a toast and tribute to our majestic game-changers. The ones who grace our everyday fashion journey to the runways, paving the way to body acceptance and showing that Ruff Tung is all about real women in every shape and size,” says Bridget.

The collecti- Bridget Pickering and Ludwig on has strong silhouettes, cropped hemlines, wide trousers, fitted tuxedos, and statement pieces such as jumpsuits, pockets, sparkled with the bling Ruff Tung is known for.

Bridget says her proudest moment was launching their Ruff Tung Inclusive collection three years ago. “Not only sharing our fashion world with every size and shape but putting our money where our mouth is and launching our inclusive collection at the AFI Fashion Week with every size on the runway.”

She says letting every woman regardless of size, experience fashion in the same way and by wearing the same designs, same price points and same prints.

She says another proud moment was Suzie Menkes in their latest AFI Fashion Week front row. “She met us after the show

and congratulated us on our inclusive vision.”

Bridget and Ludwig co-design each collection with a strong sense of who their women are. “We delve into her lifestyle and focus on our catchphrase ‘cost per wear’ to ensure our customer gets bang for her buck and multiple ways to maximise her Ruff Tung.”

The aim of Ruff Tung is to create fuss freestyling that will add value to her life and take the daily stress out of what to wear. “Our prints Bausch of Ruff Tung. are key and have defined us as a brand so we usually draw huge inspiration for our seasons aesthetic so the colours we choose and prints we create need to be visually beautiful but also have commercial appeal.”

Bridget says together they make a multifaceted team – a mix of opposites attract, a complete riot, seriously never serious and passionately in-sink with what they mutually love – design.

The duo is currently sourcing prints and working on their favourite season - SS19/20 so watch this space for beautiful prints and how to wear sequins around the clock, especially during the day!

Dié vergadering word Donderdag 25 Julie om 19:00 by die Velodrome gehou en alle belanghebbendes word versoek om dit by te woon.

“Dit is die laaste keer dat die publiek ’n sê oor hierdie aangeleentheid het. Die besluit wat hierna deur die Stad geneem word, is finaal en kan nie omgekeer word nie,” het Andrea Crous, raadslid vir wyk 3, gesê.

Die drie grootste gebruikers van die fasiliteit is fietsryers, atlete en leerders, en hulle het saam met verskeie ander sportklubs en sportunies die vergadering versoek omdat hulle baie vrae het oor die toekoms van sport by die Velodrome.

“Die publieke deelname is ’n wetlike vereiste ingevolge munisipale wetgewing wat in 2008 gepromulgeer is. Hierdie regulasies vereis dat die publiek hulle insette moet lewer voor enige openbare eiendom vervreem word. Die kommentare van die publiek sal dan in aanmerking geneem word wanneer die Stad ’n besluit neem oor die betrokke openbare eiendom,” het sy gesê.

Tydens verlede maand se vergadering is bekend gemaak dat Devmet die tender in 2009 ontvang het en dat daar na 10 jaar nog geen ontwikkeling voltooi is nie.

“Inwoners, sport-organisasies, skole en ander belange groepe word versoek om asseblief die vergadering by te woon, vrae te

vra om daarna ingeligte kommentaar te kan lewer. Dit sal bepaal of die besluit van die Stad volgens die behoeftes van die groter gemeenskap, van spesifiek die Noordelike stadsgebiede, is.” het Crous gevra.

Ten spyte van die feit dat die Velodrome en die atletiekbaan die afgelope jare slegs op korttermynbeplanning gebruik kon word, is dit nog deur 16 verskillende sportsoorte gebruik. Die skole is die meeste geraak deur hierdie korttermyn-reëlings en moes probeer om ander alternatiewe te soek. Sommige skole het die Groenpunt-stadion probeer en dan met ’n vervoeruitgawe van meer as R50 000 gesit om slegs sommige van die leerders te vervoer. Die MTBS-skole het hierdie jaar probeer om die Parow-atletiekbaan te gebruik, maar hierdie fasiliteit kon glad nie die massa-leerders en ouers hanteer nie.

Abdul Davids, voorsitter van die WPFietsryunie en bestuurder van die fietsrybaan van die destydse wyk 5, het gesê dat hy beslis die vergadering namens die WPfietsryunie en die Suid-Afrikaanse Fietsryunie gaan bywoon.

“Vanaf dag 1 in 2009 toe daar getender is vir die verhuur en bestuur van die Velodrome, is ons, die WP-fietsryunie, nie in die proses geken nie. Ons was die huurders van die Velodrome en moes in die proses geken word, en dit het nie gebeur nie. Boonop was die Velodrome ’n openbare gerief wat nie net deur die fietsrygemeenskap van die WP gebruik is nie, maar ook deur die Suid-Afrikaanse Fietsryunie,” het Davids gesê.

Morris Kaplan, voorsitter van die Bellville-atletiekklub, het by navraag gesê dat al wat die atletiekklub vra, is dat die Stad hul verpligting teenoor die publiek moet nakom om die atletiekbaan in ’n goeie toestand te hou.

SLICE OF LIFE

Verhoog jou spelpeil Ek het aan ’n verskeidenheid sportsoorte deelgeneem, soos baie Suid-Afrikaners, tydens my skooljare. Hoewel ek meer van ’n “all-rounder” was, het ek in ’n stadium ernstig begin tennis speel met formele afrigting. Tennis is ’n moeilike individuele sport waarin jy deurentyd jou kop moet reg hou. Spelers ervaar uitdagende oppe en affe en weet deurlopend of hulle voor of agter loop. Jy is op jouself aangewese om die nodige veranderinge aan te bring om as oorwinnaar die baan te verlaat.

Die persoonlike finansies uitdaging Elke speler speel die persoonlike finansies spel tot die beste van hul vermoë. Sommige finansiële spelers beskik oor natuurlike talent terwyl ander miskien beter leiding gehad het tydens hul grootwordjare. Formele afrigting en kondisionering, ten spyte van jou blootstelling as kind, is sentraal tot enige speler se sukses. ’n Proses onder ontwikkeling Persoonlike finansies het altyd ruimte vir verbetering. Afrigters slaag daarin om jou van ou gewoontes, wat jou sukses saboteer, te laat afleer en eerder op jou sterkpunte te kapitaliseer. Dit is werklik uitsonderlik dat atlete self slegte gewoontes afleer, veral as hulle nie weet wat hulle verkeerd doen nie.

Hier is riglyne wat bruikbaar kan wees vir jou sport- en beleggingsukses: . Realistiese doelwitte vs prestasiemeting: Afrigters help om uitdagende (maar realistiese) doelwitte vir hul atlete daar te stel.

“Afrigters Hierdie doelwitte kan aanvanklik slaag daarin klein wees, maar oor tyd groei om jou van ou dan tot groter drome, harder werk gewoontes, wat vereis. Afrigters gaan saam met hul wat jou atlete op hierdie sukses uitdagende reis en weet dat dit uitsonsaboteer, te derlike opoffering dissipline ook laat afleer...” en van hulself sal vereis. . Kommunikasie en perspektief: Afrigters skep ’n veilige ruimte vir gesprekvoering en help om atlete se vertroue te wen. ’n Goeie afrigter sal hierdie persoonlike ruimtes gebruik om drome, vrese en frustrasies van atlete te identifiseer en oorkom. ’n Groeiende vertrouingsverhouding tussen die afrigter en speler versterk geloof in die speler se eie vermoëns wat opsigself een van die heel grootste bepalende faktore tot hul sukses op die baan sal wees. Die atlete wat dit regkry om vinnig te leer (foute te vermy wat deur hul afrigter uitgewys is), sal minder maklike punte (of geld) weggee en uiteindelik as oorwinnaars uit die stryd tree. . Afrigting en persoonlike ontwikkeling: Goeie afrigters fokus nie net op die spel nie. Hulle is ook spesialiste oor die speler se fiksheid, dieet, gesondheid, die spelreëls en strategie. Finansiële adviseurs draai nie doekies om nie en moet somtyds medisyne voorskryf wat dalk vir die oomblik nie lekker smaak nie.

Finansiële adviseurs beïnvloed jou spelpeil Adviseurs absorbeer beskikbare inligting en bepaal daarvolgens ’n rasionele en nugter spelplan, met so min as moontlik emosionele invloed.

Kies die regte afrigter vir jóú Die beste afrigters in die wêreld het uitstekende selfdissipline, kommunikasievermoë en die geneigdheid om die groter prentjie te kan raaksien. Hulle aanvaar ’n geweldige hoeveelheid verantwoordelikheid en vertroue vanaf hul kliënte en is ook verantwoordelik vir resultate. ’n Goeie finansiële adviseur het ’n noemenswaardige invloed op jou finansiële spelpeil. – Richus Nel (Richus is ’n finansiële adviseur by PSG Wealth, Old Oak.

Girl Guides share the love: To celebrate Mandela Day this year the Girl Guides of the Western Cape made over 1 000 mugs of love. The idea was the brainchild of Tanya Prinsloo, spokesperson for the group. Items such as hot chocolate or cappuccino sachets, biscuits, soup and chocolates filled the mugs which were then distributed to family, friends and the public. Mugs will also be donated to non-profit organisations, police stations and the fire department, Prinsloo says. Here Bothasig Ranger, Zoë Prinsloo (left) and Jamie Prinsloo from the Bothasig Guide Company, sits with Nicolene Aries from Elim House Night Shelter in Elsies River with her “mug of love”.

You know who you are ...

Attention all road users using the N1, N2, N7, Koeberg Road and other main roads to Cape Town and back home.

We are a few of the many road users who drive from the suburbs and as far as from Paarl and Somerset West to work early mornings and back by motorcycle.

Why...? It’s more fuel economic, no holdups in traffic and quicker to get to work and back home, and to make traffic flow easier for all, that’s why.

Now, I want to ask those selfish road users who use the same road than me, us, motorcyclists – yes, you know who you are. My question to you is why, why are some of you closing the gap in the lane when you see us coming or try to cut us off not to pass you, while their is more than enough gap to share the lane to pass you by safely?

We ride with our lights on to be more visible and as a safety measure, and still some of you drivers deliberately try to close the lane by moving right or left to cut me off.

Are you jealous of not having a motorcycle to get to work, or do you think the road belongs only to car, bakkie or SUV owners? It’s strange to see the Fortuner and BMW X5 drivers are the main culprits to cut our bike riders off. We also have the right to use the road.

We also have a family. The problem is we are not so protected against injuries between steel plates and safety seats than you as a car, bakkie or SUV owner.

Stop the attitude of you as car owners and let everybody own its rightful place on the roads. Most of us are also professional people, attorneys, doctors, pilots and business

owners who love to ride by motorcycle and to skip the unnecessary traffic jams.

And, those of you who drive while texting on your cellphones, you are a danger for yourself and the rest of us. Stop it and focus on the road to come safe to work and back.

Last thing, those people who drink and drive and throw your beer bottles out on the pavements, especially in residential areas, you are cowards because you do it at night.

Let’s respect each other and have patience.

Dankie vir die skrywe oor chaos Ek het Avril Fillies se artikel (“Dag 1 sorg vir chaos ná skoolvakansie”) in TygerBurger van 10 Julie baie geniet.

‘Kopers’ pluk toe pistool uit ...

Ek lees gereeld in TygerBurger dat jy nie goed op Gumtree moet adverteer en die koper vra om dit by jou huis op te laai nie.

My dogter verkoop namens baie mense hul goedere op Gumtree en só was dit ook onlangs die geval toe sy ’n foon geadverteer het. Binne minute het sy ’n koper gehad.

Hulle het verder op WhatsApp kommunikeer en die reëling was dat die persoon my sal skakel sodra hy hier is.

Net na 11:00 het hy gebel om te sê hulle is voor my huis. Ek het die foon net so ’n uur of wat in ons buurvrou se woonstel gesit, aangesien ons hondekinders heeltemal mal sal raak, en aangesien ons tuinwoonstelle huur by ’n baie bekende prokureursfirma en ek nie onnodig geraas wil maak nie...

Ek neem hulle toe in. Die een man kyk na die foon en gesels vriendelik. Ek staan toe buite omrede ek die honde wou stilmaak.

Die volgende oomblik sit hy die foon so by die deur en krap in sy sak. Hy haal ’n pistool uit, druk dit teen my nek en sê: “Thank you, I take it now ...”

As ek dit net vroeër gesien het, kon ek die veiligheidshek toegestaan het, maar dit het alles so vinnig gebeur.

Krediet aan die polisie vir hul vinnige reaksie. So, hulle (die skelms) is deesdae arrogant – by ’n onderneming, helder oordag. Glo my, ons het ons les geleer.

Gratis water is verregaande Dis met ’n bitter smaak in die mond dat ek in TygerBurger van 3 Julie lees dat “indigent” mense nou gratis water kry (“‘Bogus revenue’ adds to inflated budget”).

Ek en my eggenoot, wat al die jare hard moes werk en nou bejaard is, moet deur ons nekke betaal. Dit was tereg ook, soos genoem in die artikel, nooit bekend gemaak nie.

Net so met die elektrisiteit.

Ek moes ontdek dat ek nou 29 eenhede minder kry vir my R400. Nou moet die nuwe watertariewe nog einde Julie kom, asook die nuwe belasting. Ek het nou drie maande gesukkel dat die munisipali-

teit my foutiewe watermeter kom vervang teen ’n allemintige koste, alhoewel dit nie aan my behoort nie. Dit ná ek deur die stad Kaapstad versoek is om eers ’n loodgieter te kry om ’n waterlektoets te kom doen ten spyte van die feit dat ek hulle verseker het daar is geen lek nie; die meter is foutief. En vir drie maande moes ek hoë water- en rioolrekeninge betaal waarvan ek die geld nooit weer gaan sien nie – vir iets wat ek nie verbruik het nie.

Ek weet daar is baie arm mense, maar om darem links en regs gratis dienste en huise uit te deel ten koste van ander is darem ook verregaande. Elk sal ook graag wil weet waar die huise is met ’n waarde van onder R200 000. Of praat ons nou van die kartondose wat oral in Goodwood teen sypaadjies en winkelvensters en mure staan en gratis deur mense bewoon. word Ek wonder net waar is die ablusiegeriewe vir hulle?

Another record low for this legacy Surely the abuse of the mantra “a legacy of apartheid” reached another record low point in the letter by Sharna Fernandez (MEC for social development) in TygerBurger of 3 July (“Join the fight against drug abuse”).

She claims that “the increased prevalence of substance misuse and abuse” is “a direct consequence of ... the legacy of apartheid”!

I am sure that the propagators of apartheid would feel tremendously honoured to hear that. The next thing we will probably hear is that another legacy of apartheid is that the moon is no longer made of cheese!

Positive growth expected

Tips for when a geyser bursts

A

As the law of Murphy would have it, most people get to experience the inconvenience of a burst geyser or water pipe in the early hours of the morning, on a public holiday or over a long weekend, and usually when the temperature has taken a sub-zero plummet.

Mandy Barrett of insurance brokerage Aon South Africa gives these tips for dealing with a burst geyser: . You don’t want to be bumbling around in the dark trying to find the water mains and stopcock for your geyser when there’s water gushing through your ceiling and your electricity mains have tripped – find out where these are beforehand. . Also as part of your pre-emptive measures, check that a drip tray is installed under the geyser and that it is level – this will catch any leaking water and channel it outside the roof and away from the ceilings via an outlet pipe. . If your geyser has burst, turn off the geyser electrical isolator switch on the main distribution board – it should be marked with a “geyser” label. . Turn off the water mains and the stopcock fitted to the inlet pipe of the geyser. . Open all the hot water taps in your house to relieve the pressure inside the geyser – this will lessen the amount of water pouring out of the burst geyser.

fter an extended period of slow growth for the South African rental market, landlords may well be feeling pessimistic about the future of their investments.

Contrary to predictions, however, 2019 is turning out to be a relatively positive year for rental properties with experts predicting a return to slow and steady growth as the year progresses.

Jacqui Savage, national rentals manager of the Rawson Property Group, says just like the property sales market, rental markets are cyclical with natural ups and downs.

“The recent ‘down’ was neither completely unexpected nor without a valuable purpose.”

She says every market needs periods of growth and periods of price realignment to keep in sync with consumer affordability and demand. While landlords may not enjoy the slower growth of realignment periods, they do protect the value and sustainability of rental properties in the long run.

As for a market turnaround, Savage says 2019 has already exceeded expectations, with May and June turning out to the best month Rawson Rentals had seen since its inception. Despite this positive trajectory, however, Savage cautions landlords not to expect an instant return to 10% per annum rental escalations. This, she says, is an easy

recipe for creating an untenantable property. “Growth is slowly recovering, but the market is still extremely price sensitive,” she explains. “Even well-priced rentals are experiencing high vacancy rates, particularly above the R12 000 per month threshold.

Overpriced properties, or those with unrealistic escalations, are losing tenants left, right and centre as consumers tighten their belts in these tough economic times.”

Tough times, and a relative abundance of rental properties on offer means tenants are also more inclined to negotiate on rentals, seldom paying the sticker-price with no questions asked. This, Savage says, has extended the average tenant placement process to several weeks rather than a few days, as in previous years.

“This new emphasis on rental negotiation makes it even more important to have a skilled and experienced agent on your side,” says Savage.

“One who is well acquainted with normal rentals in your area and can help you position your property to get sufficient interest from the right kind of tenants.”

Finding the right tenant has become key in an economy where more and more people are falling into debt. This has made a thorough vetting process a non-negotiable for any savvy landlord.

“If there is one piece of advice I could offer landlords, apart from keeping rental escalations reasonable, it would be to ensure all prospective tenants are vetted as thoroughly as possible,” says Savage. “Cutting corners here, or failing to check that your rental agent is doing their due diligence, could put you in a very difficult position down the line.”

Savage also advises landlords not to skimp on their maintenance duties, as incidents of tenants placing landlords in breach of contract are on the rise.

“Tenants are very aware of their rights and aren’t putting up with landlord negligence,” says Savage. “Trying to keep costs down is understandable, but if you want to hang on to good and loyal tenants, you need to do your part.” Despite the sensitive market and added complexities of the tougher economic climate, Savage says landlords have every reason to be positive about the future. “We fully expect to see a continuation of this early growth trend as the year progresses, and landlords who are willing to adapt to the market will see solid returns in the months to come. For now, hang tight and listen to the advice your rental agent gives you. Their experience will guide you through any challenges with the least possible fuss.”

PLATFORM SET: NOW THE AIM IS TO GROW

Local futsal league rebooted EARL HAUPT @earlhaupt

T

he Cape Town futsal community is poised to rejuvenate the local football landscape following the launch of its regional league.

“The purpose of this league is to grow futsal in the Western Cape,” explains South African Indoor Football Association (SAIFA) Western Cape chairperson, Richard Fortune.

Futsal is a variant of indoor football with an emphasis on control, creativity, quick passing, spatial awareness and technique.

The ball is slightly smaller, but heavier in order to minimise its bouncing effect on the harder indoor surfaces where futsal is played. “Futsal is an outdoor pitch brought indoors, it’s an open field, and that is why futsal will do more for our 11-a-side players, it will make them better and more skilful players, which is the problem we are having in 11-a-side at the moment,” says Fortune.

He hopes the league can grow to feature more than the current six teams – Bishop Lavis Futsal Club, Cape Town Falcons, Cape Town Titans, Futsal for All, Mustangs and Samba Five. These teams emanate from Bellville, Bishop Lavis, Cape Town, Crawford, Mitchell’s Plain, Salt River and UCT and do battle every Wednesday night at Proteaville Recreation Centre in Bellville South.

However, Fortune hopes to grow the league to include teams from other parts of Cape Town such as Grassy Park, Gugulethu, Hanover Park, Langa and Khayelitsha, while also starting a school’s league.

Anthony Cupido, coach of Bishop Lavis

Speel in óns gholfdag STEHAN SCHOEMAN TygerBurger hou op Vrydag 27 September ’n gholfdag ten bate van Huis Jabes, ’n veilige hawe vir vrouens en kinders van gesinsgeweld.

Spelers sal by die Kuilsrivier-gholfklub sake uitspook en groot pryse is op die spel.

Die formaat is ’n vierbal-samespel met twee tellings wat tel.

Pro Fans sal sorg vir gesogte sportmemorabilia wat tydens die prysuitdelingsdinee opgeveil sal word. Die opbrengste sal aan Huis Jabes geskenk word.

Futsal Club, says although they are new to futsal, they are aiming high. “I know that we are going to be the best team here. We started doing fives tournaments in Bishop Lavis at certain schools. There were people asking us if we were interested in doing futsal, so we had a trial run on 17 June,” says Cupido. “The time is shorter, whereas you get a 45-minute half in (outdoor) football, which is a little bit longer and it can drag, but most of all, the action in futsal is nonstop, which is more enjoyable. It is also a cleaner game because there are no major injuries that we know of so far,” he says.

Tyrone Ward, Mustangs captain and goalkeeper says that while still fledgling, the platform laid down for futsal in Cape Town is a positive development.

“There are people who are really serious about the game and want it to go forward,” he says, adding that Mustangs is made up of a few ex-pro outdoor players who have finished their careers and now help young players to develop, which he feels is the heartbeat of a sustainable futsal club.

“You have to develop a club: you can’t start from the top, you have to start from the bottom. Infrastructure is important, but it has been lacking. Futsal has been around for 18-20 years (in South Africa), but nobody knows about futsal until the last few years which is terrible. South African football, in general, is currently of a low standard – we are so far behind when compared to Europe and South America, but what do they do? They make sure the infrastructure and platform are set for those kids in order for them to move forward. “They build the base, same as when you build a house where you can’t build a ’n Paar sportsterre sal ook deel wees van die dag se verrigtinge en besonderhede hieroor sal later bekend gemaak word.

Die sportvasvrakompetisie behoort ook groot aftrek te vind.

Daar is reeds ’n aantal vierballe verkoop en spasie is beperk. Die koste is R2 500 per vierbal, wat middag- en aandete insluit.

Maatskappye word aangemoedig om deel te word van die dag en kan putjies koop om hul produkte te vertoon. Spelers moet die Kuilsrivier-gholfklub skakel by 021 903 0222 indien hulle gholfkarretjies wil bespreek.

Die eerste vierbal slaan om 11:30 af.
