Amakhaya Ngoku moves forwardTERESA FISCHER
SIXTY families in Masiphume-lele will celebrate Christmas
in their new flats at AmakhayaNgoku.
They moved in two weekendsago, amid joyful singing.
This brings the total number offamilies living in the two-bedroomflats to 232 since the first flats wereoccupied in September 2009.
The peaceful move followslengthy negotiations and crisis res-olution efforts by the board, whoasked Dr Lutz van Dijk, one of thefounder members of AmakhayaNgoku, to mediate.
Dr Van Dijk says meetings wereheld with those people who hadbeen wrongly overlooked on thewaiting list.
An official list was agreed to,which made provision for them tomove into flats that may becomeavailable if certain beneficiariescontinue to “boycott” rental pay-
ments, or when new flats are built.There are still four blocks outstand-ing.
The land where the remainingflats are to be built is currently oc-cupied by 60 shacks of people whodo not wish to be part of the develop-ment.
Negotiations are underway re-garding alternative land for theseresidents.
This is one of the main challengesstill facing Amakhaya Ngoku; theother is non-payment of rent – R400per month – by some individuals.
In September, 18 families wereevicted, in a week marked by vio-lence and death threats. This fol-lowed a court order granted againstcertain defaulters, some of whomhad not paid since they moved intwo years ago.

Here’s to youYESTERDAY we put the last People’s Post edi-tion for 2011 tobed, andaswedid sowe reflect-ed on how we covered community news overthe past year.
Community newspapers play a vital role inthe global news arena; providing a platformto the voiceless thousands with scant chanceof seeing their stories in the mainstreampress.
We asked ourselves many questions. Didwe listen well enough? Did we acknowledgeand powerfully convey our readers’ con-cerns? Did we consistently produce qualitycontent? Are we worthy of the praise lavishedon us by our loyal readers who describe ourpapers as “edgy”, “quality”, “preferred”, “thepaper of choice”?
Though hard to swallow at times, criticalanalysis is essential in our quest for excel-lence in journalism. In our business – thebusiness of news – criticism or constructivefeedback is as much of a factor as deadlines.Each week we hold our papers up to scrutinyand as we wind up this year, we have alreadybegun developing our editorial vision fornext year, and pinned down our strategy toelevate our papers and enhance our brand ina highly competitive playing field.
Unlike other industries, the media does notwind down this time of the year.
In fact, the opposite holds true as our lastworking day yesterday was one of writing,planning, layout and meeting productiondeadlines – with a little “breaking up” partythrown in.
It’s easy for journalists to switch off theircomputers, but not as easy to switch off ourcreative buzz. Our three-week holiday maybe just the trick, and is certainly welcomedby us.
As we make our mental transition fromhardworking journalists to holidaymakers,we wish all our readers and valued advertis-ers a blessed Christmas and prosperous newyear. Have a wonderful, safe holiday. We lookforward to serving you well in 2012.

THE City of Cape Town has responded tocriticism that the decision not to closeKommetjie Road for the eMzantsi carni-val was dangerous and contrary to thespirit of the event. “Cars squash paradespirit”, (People’s Post, 6 December),
Councillor Grant Pascoe, mayoralcommittee member: tourism, events andmarketing, responds: “The suggested one-hour closure would have caused a majortraffic back-up that would have taken hoursto clear and would have resulted in a majoroutcry from motorists and perhaps evenreckless behaviour by frustrated motorists,taxi operators, etc. The road is a majortransport route and it is only closed in ex-ceptional circumstances.
The same traffic management system wasput in place this year as last year. The highvolumes of traffic from a number of commu-nities causes huge traffic to build up veryquickly. It is important to note that this isa single traffic lane in both directions.Please note that a detour via Simonstownis not an option.”
Richard Bosman, executive director:safety and security: “No requests for alane closure were received and such a re-quest could not have been accommodated.Kommetjie Road is the main single laneroute from areas such as Scarborough,Misty Cliffs, Kommetjie, Ocean View andMasiphumelele and therefore cannot beconsidered for a closure.
Every year it is a challenge to accommo-date both the parade and two-way traffic onthe same roadway. A bottleneck is createdat the Capri Road intersection. The City’straffic services therefore requested that theevent organiser keep the parade to the farleft at this particular point, thereby allow-ing more space for traffic officers to ensuretraffic flow. Once past this area, it is easierto accommodate the procession until it ar-rives at Kommetjie Road and Ou KaapseWeg. This was agreed to by the event organ-
iser and her colleagues.In the past, the parade comprised a number
of floats, vehicles and a dance/show whichwas put on at the Kommetjie Road and OuKaapse Weg intersection. Last year, the con-gestion was particularly bad and the Citytherefore engaged with the event organiserthis year to ensure better management. Traf-fic management along Kommetjie Road fol-lowed the same procedure as in previousyears. Traffic travelling towards Fish Hoekwas diverted over on to the incorrect side ofthe road, straggling the centre line,while traf-fic towards Ocean View travelled along theshoulder. Traffic approaching the KommetjieRoad and Ou Kaapse Weg intersection wasmoved into the right turning lane and centrelanes. Again, as in previous years, the paradehad the left shoulder, the left turning lane to-wards the cut-away and the left straight laneto themselves. The same procedure was fol-lowed down Ou Kaapse Weg to Sun ValleyMall. Traffic Officers coned off the area, al-lowing traffic to move towards the paintedcentre island before Buller Louw. This al-lowed more space than in previous years.
The event organiser said the parade wouldonly comprise four people and a fifth mar-shal, walking abreast – which they had beenpractising. This would allow more space tomove traffic compared to last year. The eventorganiser also said that the number of floatshad been reduced and there would not be a‘show’ at the intersection as before. The eventorganiser also arranged 50 marshals from thecommunity. City traffic officers explained tothe marshals beforehand why they wereneeded, how to marshal the parade, where theproblem areas were and provided informa-tion to ensure their and the participants’ safe-ty. Traffic officers did not push the processionto the side and marshal people into a queue.The safety of the participants was clearly notcompromised. Traffic officers requested thatthe first person on the left use the sidewalkas a guide before Capri Road and thereafterthe shoulder towards Ou Kaapse Weg.”

That section of the Simon’s town coastlineis home to one of only two land-based Afri-can Penguin colonies in South Africa, andthe area provides nesting grounds for a sig-nificant portion of this colony of endangeredbirds.
It was temporarily closed to allow for cru-cial rehabilitation. Entrance to Burghers’Walk is free and the area can be accessed viathe wooden gate in Bellevue Road and otheraccess ways on Links Avenue.
The City requests that any member of thepublic entering Burghers’ Walk familiarisethemselves with the rules and regulations ofthearea, as stipulatedon the signboards, andappeals to any member of the public wishing
to continue on the path beyond the woodenboardwalk to do so responsibly by:
. keeping the gate closed at all times,
. always remaining on the path,
. being cautious of penguins, not interact-ing with them, and
. keeping dogs on a lead at all times.Although Burghers’ Walk is open to the
public it is not to be used by organised tour-ist groups.
The City has asked tour guides not to bringtheir groups to Burghers’ Walk.
A formal management plan for Burghers’Walk is being developed, and will be availa-ble for public comment upon completion.

Flying the flag forCape Town’s beachesTHE City’s Sport, Recreation and Amen-ities Department officially kicked offthe blue flag season at a special event onFriday December 2 at the MuizenbergPavilion where the coveted blue flagwas raised by the City and local digni-taries.
Muizenberg was awarded blue flag statusin 2008 for its clean waters and attractivebeach.
It is one of the Cape’s best-loved beaches,with safe bathing, many family attractionsand its brightly coloured beach boxes, rem-iniscent of childhood holidays.
Cape Town has the highest number ofblue flag beaches in South Africa for the2011/2012 season, after all eight of its appli-cations were successful, including Muizen-berg, Camps Bay, Clifton Fourth, Llandud-no, Mnandi, Silwerstroom, Strandfonteinand Bikini.
The City’s Mayoral Committee memberfor community services, Councillor Tande-ka Gqada, officially opened the blue flagseason. “The City is very pleased at this ac-knowledgement of our commitment tomaintaining world-class beaches,” she
said. “The beaches that have attained blueflag status are important to residents andtourists alike and this status is especiallyencouraging going into the festive season.”
Blue flag status is an internationally rec-ognised standard of excellence awarded tobeaches that excel in the fields of safety,cleanliness, provision of amenities andmaintenance of environment.
This voluntary eco-label requires thatbeaches meet 32 criteria spanning four as-pects of coastal management: water quali-ty; environmental education and informa-tion; environmental management; andsafety and services.
The status indicates that beaches areclean, have adequate ablution facilities andparking, are environmentally sound, aresafe and secure to visit, and adhere to inter-national safety and tourism standards.
The accreditation is awarded for one sea-son at a time and, if conditions change atthe beach, it can be withdrawn.
As South Africa enters its ninth year ofrunning the blue flag programme, the Cityhas sustained beach management stand-ards, ensuring thatCapeTownbeaches rateamong the best in the world.
