The house causing distress to neighbours is privately-owned but is allegedly being oc- cupied “illegally” and residents in the street say they fear for their safety. Resident Tania Taliaard, who lives next to the problem property, says they are fed-up with the nuisance being caused by the occu- pants of the home. She says a number of different people hang around the house and alleges drugs are be- ing used at the house. “We are all gatvol of the people living in this home. They are putting our lives at risk with their activities,” Taliaard says. She describes an incident that occurred on the night of Tuesday 7 October where a fight broke out in the street. “We heard a commotion outside and it was already past 22:00. When we got up we saw a group of people standing outside the house shouting over each other. I even heard one person shout ‘skiet hulle, man’. This is unac- ceptable,” Taliaard stresses. “The police comes to the premises often. We call them out when we notice suspicious characters in the area. But that is all we can do to ensure our safety,” she says. Having had enough of the nuisance caused by their neighbours, they approached ward councillor Jan Burger for a solution. “He listened to our concerns and raised our issues with the authorities. However, nothing has happened yet,” she adds. Attempts to reach the owner have been un- successful as only the owner’s surname is known to Burger. According to Taliaard they have been struggling with the problem property “for years”. “It was not such a big concern at first but when people moved into the house a few years back, it became a huge problem. The previous owner just left the house vacant and hasn’t come back since,” she says. Taliaard says they have requested that a health inspector visit the premises. “There is no sanitation and running water on site. These people defecate all over the premises and it is left that way. It is the per- fect breeding ground for rats, flies and all types of vermin.” A health inspector visited the premises during August earlier this year. Taliaard says she was appalled when she was told the property does not pose a health risk. Another resident, who wishes to anony- mous, says she fears for the safety of her chil- dren. “My children aren’t allowed to play freely in the road anymore because of the un- familiar characters hanging around here,” she says. Burger says there is only so much he can do to assist the residents. “I have taken up this complaint many years ago and have kept track of it but be- cause it is a private property, there is not much I can do. I have taken it up with the City of Cape Town and they have deployed Law Enforcement to this case.” A wendy house was erected on the proper- ty. In an email conversation Burger request- ed the intervention of the health department and Problem Buildings Unit. “According to the Problem Buildings Unit they served a no- tice to the property. There is a legal proce- dure being followed and we hope to have this issue sorted soon,” wrote Burger. V How do you think the City of Cape Town should han- dle vacant properties?

HERITAGE

District Six – 20 years laterThe District Six Museum this month cel-

ebrates two decades of opening itsdoors as a memorial to a decimated

community.Known as a city within a city, District Six

was considered the soul of Cape Town, saysa statement. Its bustling streets, diverse andcolourful residents and deep sense of com-munity are engrained in the memory ofthose who once lived there.

“InFebruary 1966 itwasdeclaredawhites-only area under the Group Areas Act. By1982, the life of this vibrant community wasover.”

More than 60 000 people were forcibly re-moved and the buildings were flattened bybulldozers, the statement reads.

In honour of its 20th birthday, the muse-um will pay tribute to and celebrate the oncevibrant community by reflecting on 20 ob-jects, places and people which “truly epito-mise life in the former District Six”.

These are:. The Van Kalker Studio – Proudly hang-

ing above the family mantelpiece, the all-fa-miliar sight of a Van Kalker photographcould be found in the homes ofmanyDistrictSix residents. The Van Kalker studio in Vic-toria Street became a routine visit for spe-cial events like birthdays, weddings, gradu-ations and christenings.

. Waentjies – To get their fresh produce,residents looked no further than the localfruit and vegetable seller ‘waentjies’, whowould set up shop on Hanover Street.

. Fish horn – The nasal sound of fishhorns signalled the day’s fresh catch. Withfish piled high, residents would flock to thepungent Fish Market (‘vismarkie’) to gettheir share.

. Hanover Street – Dubbed ‘the hub’ ofDistrict Six, Hanover Street was the placewhere you could acquire anything and eve-

rything.. Peninsula Maternity Hospital – Situat-

ed between Constitution, Primrose, Caledonand Mount streets, this hospital is wherethousands of District Six residents wereborn.

. Seven Steps – For anyone who lived inthe old District Six, the ‘Seven Steps’ is apowerful symbol of their heritage. To work,home, school, play, church, mosque, shop,celebrate and mourn, these steps carriedthousands of residents on their way.

. Bioscopes – Going to local bioscopes ona Saturday afternoon was a regular treat forresidents and occupied a special position inthe recreational life of the community. TheAvalon, Star, National and the British Bio-scopes doubled as venues for beauty pag-eants, talent shows and musicals.

. Crescent Café – People journeyed fromfar and wide to sample the curry at Mr Kath-rada’s Crescent Cafe in Hanover Street.

. Beinkinstadt – Judaica bookstore – Inits early years, The Beinkinstadt Jewishbookstore was a meeting place for the localJews who, on Friday evenings, would con-gregate there to enjoy the heimishe ‘openhouse’ hospitality of ownersMosheandOlgaBeinkinstadt.

. Kewpie – District Six was legendary forits gay community in the 1950s and Kewpie,the local drag queen, became a figureheadfor District Six’s vibrant characters.

. Koe’sisters – Food played a central rolein the lives of the District Six community.The traditional koe’sister, a delicious spiceddoughnut dipped in syrup and rolled in drycoconut, remains a Sunday morning treatamong District Sixers.

. Fah-fee – Fafi or fa-fi (pronounced fah-fee) was a popular betting game played inDistrict Six, and has been described as the‘poor man’s Roulette’.

. Richard Rive –Rive was a formerresident and thewell-known writerof the acclaimedBuckingham Pal-ace.

. Lydia Wil-liams – Affection-ately known as ‘OuTamelytjie’, Wil-liams was a formerslave woman whosettled in DistrictSix. She estab-lished a school inthe area and was afounding memberof St Philip’s Angli-can Church.

. May Abra-hamse – Abra-hamse started sing-ing at age 14 andwent on to becomeone of South Afri-ca’smost prolific opera singers.Withher tal-ent and support from theEoanGroup – a the-atre and dance group – she played leadingsoprano roles inLaTraviata,LaBohemeandMadame Butterfly.

. Globe Gang – The Globes – one of themost notorious gangs ofDistrict Six – initial-ly started out as a vigilante group, takingtheir name from the Globe Furnishing Com-pany.

. Music of District Six – The music of Dis-trict Six is legendary…one of the leadinglights of Cape jazz was Dollar Brand (laterknown as Abdullah Ibrahim) who, with hisJazz Epistles, recorded the first jazz LP byblack South African musicians.

. TheRose andCrown–One cannot forgetthe many pubs of District Six. The Rose andCrown was a particular hot spot in HanoverStreet.

. Horse Drawn Carriages – There werethe horse-drawn wedding parades to look

forward to on weekends, where little girlswould eagerly anticipate the beautiful wed-ding parades that took place most Sundays.

. Malay and Christmas Choirs and klopse– On Christmas and New Year’s Eve, resi-dents would prepare to stay up through thenight to watch the Malay and ChristmasChoirs proceed from Tennant Street to Cale-don Street, up Wale Street and ending downat theGrandParade,where theklopsewouldbegin celebrations well into New Year’sevening.

Visitors are encouraged to book a person-alised tour through the museum with aformer resident ofDistrict Six, for a truly au-thentic experience. Or enjoy self-guidedtours during normal opening hours. Formore information call (021) 466 7200. Themuseum is located at 25A Buitenkant Streetand is open from09:00 to 16:00Monday to Sat-urdays.V For more information visit www.districtsix.co.za.

ICONIC: The Seven Steps in District Six. PHOTO: JANSJE WISSEMA

Back in timeThe latest scientific evidence showsthat the first modern humans livedat the coast on the southern tip of Af-rica from around 200 000 years ago.

The archaeological records at thePoint ofHumanOrigin show the firstevidence of cognitive human devel-opment, early nuclear family life,and human traits that we associatewith modern humans today.

Starting at about 100 000 years ago,we see a big shift in human con-sciousness in the records that indi-cate knowledge of basic chemistry,jewellery and art.

In partnership with Wavescape,Pick n Pay, WWF-Sassi, ART54 andprovincial government, the exhibi-tion takes place from December 2014to April 2015. For more informationon the exhibition visit www.seach-angeproject.com.

’BOTCHED ABORTION’

Woman charged with murderMONIQUE DUVAL

@monique_duval

ARetreatwoman appeared in theWyn-berg Magistrate’s Court last week onmurder charges after an alleged

botched abortion.According toWynberg police thewoman

posed as a registered nurse and operateda clinic on Main Road in Wynberg.On Sunday 30 November, police were

called to a bloody scene after a 35-year-oldWestlake woman had died at the clinic.Police spokespersonWarrantOfficer Sil-

vino Davids says the woman’s friend toldpolice they went to the nurse after beingturned down by other facilities.“They were told she was too far along

and they couldnot abort the baby,”he says.They found a pamphlet from the clinic

advertising abortions and the Westlakewoman went to see the nurse.She was informed the abortion would

cost R5 000. She paid a deposit of R2 200 andwas given six tablets to take.Davids says later that day thewoman be-

came ill and returned to the clinic.She was bleeding and the nurse said she

was going to give her oxygen by “puttingher in a bath”.The bath reportedly had a spa bath mat

which generated bubbles.“This was the nurse’s version of giving

her patient oxygen,” Davids says.The woman died in the bath shortly be-

fore her boyfriend arrived on the scene.Davids says thenurse instructed theboy-

friend to take the woman’s body with him,but he refused and called police to thebloody scene.The nurse reportedly cleaned the clinic

and placed the items used to clean up theblood in bags. These were taken by the po-lice forensic team.Officers searched for evidence of the foe-

tus but later realised part of the foetus was

still inside the de-ceased woman.Police confiscated

various medicalequipment from thescene, including amedical vacuum usedin abortions.They are now try-

ing to verify thenurse’s certification.According to health

department spokes-person SithembisoMagubane only quali-fied practitioners areallowed to carry outTermination of Preg-nancy (TOP) proce-dures.He explains any girl

or woman can ask fora TOP in the firstthree months (12weeks) of pregnancy.“It is important to

act quickly if an un-wanted pregnancy issuspected. If you arethree to five monthspregnant, a differentset of rules apply forTOP,” Magubanesays.After three months,

he explains, a doctorwill only carry out theprocedure if there is arisk to the physical ormental health of thewoman or foetus, ifhaving the baby will cause major social oreconomic problems for themother or if thewoman is pregnant as a result of rape orincest.“The service, however, must still be re-

quested at a primary healthcare clinic.”He urges women to report illegal abor-

tions to police and says: “Women findingthemselves in the position that require atermination of pregnancy should visit

their nearest clinics to assure a safe termi-nation.”V Police are calling on anyone who went to the clinicfor a medical procedure to phone Constable Carmeli­ta Jones on (021) 799 1300.

HEATHFIELD

Serving their communityTwo residents from Ward 72 were

awarded with certificates for theircontribution made in the ward.

They are StanleyDavids andEuniceMac-Intyre.

Stanley DavidsDavids has been a firm believer in the no-

tion that when something needs to be doneor fixed, the best person to do it is yourself.Soon after he retired, he observed the

state of the sidewalks, gardens and the gen-eral condition of Heathfield.Owing to his initiative and enthusiasm,

he upgraded his own garden and the side-walks of both neighbours which borderedhis home.He and the neighbours took it upon them-

selves to beautify the area next to the rail-way line in Station Road.This was much appreciated by all who

walked to and from the station.Soon after he won a prize for his garden

from the Civic Association.Davids later acceptedapositionon the ex-

ecutive of the Civic Association.His portfolio was to be the custodian of

Heathfield Civic Hall.His diligence on the job led to the upgrad-

ing of this hall.Heworked and revamped thekitchenand

toilets.And he kept strict control over the book-

ings of the hall so that it ran smoothly.Davids became interested in the Heath-

field NeighbourhoodWatch and with confi-dence helped and led this group.He also serves on theWard 72 Committee

with diligence.

Eunice MacIntyreEunice MacIntyre moved into Southfield

as a very young bride. She began her workwithin the community almost immediatelyand is still very active today, helping outwith queries from the community. She isnot afraid of tackling a job as was seen andnoted during the last elections.MacIntyre does not drive, so wherever

she goes, she goes on foot.Take a walk over the bridge in Southfield

and you’re sure to see her either going to,or coming from, the shops.She does outstanding volunteer work

within the community – whether it be forthe church, the councillor or whomever.But she does it for the community with

a big and willing heart.PROUD WINNERS: Eunice MacIntyre (left) and Stanley Davids (right) received awards fortheir contribution in the community. With them is ward councillor Jan Burger.

Keep the children safeChild safety should be at the forefront ofadults’ priorities this festive season.This is according to a statement from the

City of Cape Town, as it encourages parentsand guardians to be extra vigilant over theholiday period. In recent weeks, there hasalready been a number of reports of chil-dren disappearing, child abuse and neglect,it states.Furthermore, council’s social develop-

ment department urges parents to not instila sense of trust by introducing their chil-dren to people whom they themselves arenot that familiar with.Parents must always know where their

children are; ensuring they are supervisedby a responsible caregiver; teach them notto go anywhere with strangers; ensure chil-dren know their friends and where theylive; have current photographs of childrenin the event that they go missing; and in-

form the police as soon as they suspect achild is missing.“I want to call on communities to keep an

eye on one another’s children and to makechild safety your business,” says SuzetteLittle, mayco member for Social Develop-ment and Early Childhood Development.“A fewweeks ago, we had a reported case

of a child who suffered such severe abuseat the hands of her parents that she endedup in hospital. According to the report, theneighbours finally acted when theycouldn’t stand it anymore, which meansthat theyknew the childwas being abused.”Little adds that the department is cur-

rently rolling out services such as advicecentres and assistance from social workersat its district offices.V Report child abuse to the police or the City’s PublicEmergency Communication Centre on 107 from alandline or (021) 480 7700.

STRAUSS ROAD

No morebumpy ridesCHEVON BOOYSEN

@ChevonBooysen

Almost eight years after a motion wasput in for the resurfacing of StraussRoad in Retreat, rehabilitation work

has been completed.The road, which is said to have been a

nightmare to manoeuvre, was resurfacedand completed on Friday 12 December.Work commenced on Monday 1 Decem-

ber.Resident Errol Dreyer says he often uses

the road and is “happy” that something hasfinally being done to the road.“Formany years it was unpleasant to use

the road. There were too many holes in theroad but now that is a thing of the past,”says Dreyer.He adds he is glad the City of Cape Town

finally made a decision to repair the road.“It has beenaproblemandwehave raised

these concerns for many years,” he says.“I’m sure many motorists and residents

are glad for the new roads just as much asI am.”Another resident Richard Hagley says he

is equally happy something has “finallybeen done to the terrible state of StraussRoad”.“It was a nightmare driving down this

road. All the potholes would hurt one’s carwhich added to the wear and tear of the ve-hicle,” Hagley says. He adds that althoughthey had to wait many years for themainte-nance on the road, “we can only be glad thatit was actually done”.“Over the years we complained and took

our concerns to theCity and ourward coun-cillor. We thought it would never material-ise but [we are] very glad now that it did.”Fiona Jones says she uses the road often

as well.“It was a nightmare driving on this road.

During winter it was especially a problemwith all these potholes filling with water. Iam glad our trips on this road will be a lotless bumpy now,” she says.Ward councillor JanBurger says hewait-

ed for a “very long time” before the roadproblem was addressed.“During 2006 I raised concern over the

condition of this specific road. I am just gladthat it finally got the necessarywork done,”Burger says, adding itwas a “difficult strug-gle getting the City to attend to this con-cern”.“Although it did take a while, I am grate-

ful our roads department adhered to the re-quest. I am also glad it was not just a patchup or filling of the potholes. The entire sur-face was lifted and redone.”Mayoral Committee member for Trans-

port Brett Herron says the road was identi-fied by the City for maintenance.“Strauss Avenuewas identified formain-

tenance by the City’s Pavement Manage-ment System, although we do take note ofresident complaints as well,” he says.The resurfacing cost R650 000 and is fund-

ed from Transport for Cape Town’s AssetManagement and Maintenance OperatingBudget.V Are you happy for the new road surface? Startingwith the word “Post”, SMS your thoughts to 32516.SMSes cost R1.

TRAFFIC PLAN

Drivers warnedTraffic officers are stepping up their

game in a bid to reduce the number ofroad accidents and ensure safer roads

in the province over the festive season.At the launch of the provincial Festive

Season Traffic Operational Plan last week,provincial transport minister DonaldGrant said despite a decrease in road fatali-ties during the period last year, his depart-ment is determined to further lower thenumber. He further called on road users tobe extra vigilant on the roads.Between 1 December last year and the

end of January, 221 people were killed onthe province’s roads, Grant explained. A to-tal of 230 people died in road accidents dur-ing the same period the previous year.“In the 2013 calendar year, 1 216 lives

were lost on our province’s roads. Road in-juries and death in this province cost the[province’s] economy an estimated R21bn –more than either the province’s health oreducation budgets,” he said.“The picture is even more grim national-

ly, with an estimated 17 000 lives lost annu-ally. The national Department of Transportestimates road trauma costs to the SouthAfrican economy at R306bn annually,which is money that should be directed to

improving levels of service delivery.”Therefore, the department’s Safely Home

campaign has launched a multimedia cam-paign focused on the dangers associatedwith alcohol and road use.Furthermore, the department is the only

traffic service which operates around theclock, Grant added, and this will intensifyover the coming weeks. The officers willparticularly focus on motorists driving un-der the influence of alcohol; excessivespeeding; average speed over distance(ASOD); driver fatigue management; driv-er and vehicle fitness; distracted driving;pedestrian safety; seatbelt compliance; in-ter-provincial operations; licence plates;safe following distances; and the transpor-tation of illegal substances and illicit ciga-rettes.Grant also urged residents to refrain

from speeding and driving under the influ-ence of alcohol and illegal substances; be-ing extra mindful of pedestrians; not usingcellphones while driving; and alwayswear-ing a seatbelt.Road users can phone the Emergency

Traffic Control Centre on (021) 812 4581;Roadside Emergencies on 10177; or the Cityof Cape Town call centre on (021) 596 1999.

Vehicle checklist for holiday seasonBefore hitting the road this holiday, checkthe following:

V Tyres: Check air pressure of your tyres,including the spare.

V Batteries: Weak batteries can lead tobreakdowns.

V Brakes: An inspection can determinewhether brakes are functioning properlywith full braking capability.

V Windshield wipers: Old or worn wind-shield wipers can lead to poor visibility.

V Headlamps: Properly aimed head-lamps are a must for optimal visibility, fit-ting Xenon Headlight Bulbs will improveyour visibility as they are 50% brighter

than standard lights.V Oil: Change oil and filter at recom-

mended intervals to minimise engine wearand reduce the possibility of internal dam-age.

V Fluid levels: Improper fluid levels(coolant, oil, power steering, transmission,brake fluid and even washer solvent) cannegatively affect vehicle performance.

V Belts and hoses: A broken belt or rup-tured hose can cause costly engine dam-age.

V Ensure all weekly checks recommend-ed in the owner’s handbook have been per-formed and obey road signs. carsguide.com

NEW TECHNOLOGY

Preventing crashToyota has revealed a range of high-tech

vehicle crash-prevention technology.Toyota’s “integrated safety manage-

ment concept” is designed towork in concertto reduce the number of road crashes.The features were announced at a safety

seminar in Toyota City, Japan, and is set tobe launched in new models in 2015. Toyotais also creating “active safety” packages forvarious vehicles thatwill be available by theend of 2017.At a blind junction even the best vehicle-

cameras and sensors can’t give a clearwarn-ing of hazards. Toyota has worked to elimi-nate the risk with new “vehicle-to-infra-structure and vehicle-to-vehiclecommunications” technology, using a wire-less frequency reserved for Integrated Traf-fic System (ITS) services.For example, if you arrive at junctionwith

no clear view, sensors will detect oncomingtraffic or pedestrians and send the informa-tion to your car, what Toyota calls the “vehi-cle-to-infrastructure system”.Toyota says: “Vehicles approaching the

intersectionwill signal their presence usingthe vehicle-to-vehicle link, activating visualand audio warnings when necessary to helpprevent an accident.”Toyota has developed a new radar cruise-

control to make it easier for preceding andfollowing vehicles to maintain safe follow-ingdistances. It uses a “forward-facingmilli-metre-wave” radar to monitor the distancebetween vehicles ahead and behind, relativespeeds and the acceleration/deceleration ofthe leading car.Automakers are already using such sys-

tems with a consequent improvement insafety, congestion and fuel-efficiency.Toyota says it develops its ITS-compatible

systems in collaboration with governmentbodies, agencies and private companies.

In 2013 Toyota participated in an ITSGreen Safety public-private project to assessthe social effects of such systems. It will alsotake part in the ITSConnect PromotionCon-sortium to support the development of envi-ronments for the smooth introduction ofsuch systems and their widespread adop-tion.Toyota, already implementing auto high

beam and adaptive lighting systems, is de-veloping its next-generation system to deliv-er improved night-time illumination – its“array adaptive high-beam” using LEDs.A similar system was launched recently

by Mercedes-Benz on its CLS in South Afri-ca.The system uses multiple, independently

controlled LEDs arranged in a single row.This gives wider illumination without daz-zling drivers of oncoming or preceding vehi-cles. It can light up the gaps between vehi-cles ahead and those approaching, makingit easier to spot pedestrians.Light distribution is also linked to use of

the steeringwheel, givingbetter visibility asyou turn into a bend.Toyota’s new Safety Sense active safety

package will include an auto high beamfunction.From 2015, Toyota will launch a new set

of active safety technologies designed tohelpprevent or mitigate collisions. Two SafetySense packageswill be launched, initially inJapan and subsequently in the USA and Eu-rope, by the end of 2017.The two packages, designated C and P for

mid-size and larger vehicles respectively,use several of Toyota’s existing active safetytechnologies, including its pre-crash safetysystem, lane keep assist and auto high beam.The C package uses a laser radar and the

P package a millimetre-wave radar, eachcombined with a camera.

AUDI

RS3 Sportbackheaded forSouth AfricaAudi has confirmed its monstrous RS3

Sportback is headed for South Africaequipped with the automaker’s most

powerful production five-cylinder engine, atribute to Audi’s classic cars of the 1980’s.

The latest evolution of the 2.5 five-cylin-der TFSI can make 270kW/465Nm, sent viathe seven-speed S tronic twin-clutch trans-mission to ‘quattro’ all-wheel-drive.

PowerfulFuel consumption is listed as 8.1F/100km

with emissions of 189g/km – which shouldbe something to behold.

Anyway, Ulrich Hackenberg, Audi’sboard member for technical development,told Wheels24: “There’s a long tradition offive-cylinder engines at Audi. In the 1980sthey turned Audi into a sport brand – onroad, track and rallies. This new Audi RS3Sportback has the latest generation of our2.5 five – the most powerful production en-gine in the modular transverse matrix.”

LightAudi’s hottest RS3 rockets to 100km/h in

4.3sec and will keep on accelerating untilelectronically stopped at 250km/h (or280km/h if, Audi says, you have “regularautobahn access”).

Which is a bit of a crockbecausemost sec-tions of such roads are not speed-limited –the coveted black diagonal band across awhite background is fast-disappearing.

Its light construction has shed 55kg to1 520kg, despite more equipment and crashprotection/avoidance features.

LowerCompared to the standard A3 Sportback,

the RS3’s body sits 25mm lower.Track is 1.5mmwider and the suspension

has high-strength aluminium bearings.The rear axle, which has a width of 1.5m,

is a four-link construction with rods ofhigh-strength steel that handle longitudi-nal and lateral forces separately.

It has ventilated disc brakes, 370mm atthe front and 310mm at the rear, with blackeight-piston fixed callipers (red’s an option)and bearing RS logos.

BrakeBuyers can also choose carbon fibre-rein-

forced ceramic brake discs at the front(370mm), with grey callipers.

In terms of design, it has a gloss black,

honeycomb grille with aluminium frameand RS badging.

The front also gains larger air intakesand a generally more sporty treatment.

It has new door sills, aluminium externalmirrors, a large roof spoiler, re-modelledbumpers (with black diffusers) and newoval tailpipes.

Optional extras include 19” titanium orblack alloy rims instead of the standard 19”five-spoked.

The cabin has leather sport seats and flat-bottomed leather-clad RS multifunctionsports steering wheel.

SeatsIt has steel pedals, leather door inserts,

the inlays of which can be black, alumini-um or carbon-fibre. The instruments areframed in black with black-faced dials, redneedles and white scales. The car-informa-tion system is enhancedbyaboost-pressureindicator, oil temperature gauge and laptimer.

For the first time in the compact classAu-di will include its new RS bucket seats withside air bags and a carbon-fibre shell. Thenew seat is 7kg lighter than the standardsports seat.

InteriorThe RS3 Sportback’s interior can be en-

hanced with a design package which in-cluded red accents on the seats, air vents,mats and seat belts.

According to Audi: “The distinctiverhythmof the 1-2-4-5-3 five-cylinder ignitionsequence – the classic Audi soundtrackplayed out since the 1980s by rally cars,touring cars andproductionmodels such asthe Ur quattro, the RS2 and the TT RS –washes over the cabin as thenewRS3Sport-back gathers momentum.

“Two flaps in the exhausts control the ex-haust flow to provide for an even more in-tensive sound experience that varies withengine load and speed and the driver cancontrol the flaps via the Audi drive selectadaptive dynamics system, which is stand-ard. For the first time in an Audi model atthis level, the already fittingly bass-heavyRS exhaust system can be replaced at extracost by an even richer-sounding sports ex-haust upgrade.”

The new Audi RS3 Sportback will arrivein South Africa in the second quarter of2015. – Wheels24

BRAND NEW: The performance version of Audi’s A3, the RS3 Sportback, will arrive in SA later in 2015.

Milano losespole positionSHIFAAN RYKLIEF

Milano United lost their top position onthe NFD table, while Cape Town AllStars suffered another setback at this

weekend’s NFD encounters.The People’s Team, Santos, regained their

winning form on Friday evening at the Ath-lone Stadium with a narrow 1-0 win overneighbours Vasco da Gama. The visitorslookedmore threatening and played the bet-ter football, yet, it was Santos who openedup the scoring when Carl Lark found theback of the net in the 37th minute.

FaroukAbrahams’ side defendedwell andheld onto their one-goal lead, and ultimatelywent on to claim the victory following theirthree-match losing streak. Both FC CapeTown and Milano reside in the top five onthe NFD table, which meant a tough contestat theNNKRugbyStadium.SibusisoMasinagave the African Beasts a 1-0 lead into thebreak, but Devon Saal found the back of thenet late in the game to ensure the two sidesshared the spoils.

UnsportingbehaviourTASMIN CUPIDO

@TazzCup

Sports facilities across the Cape are fall-ing prey to acts of brazen vandalismand theft.

A total of 55 sports complexes have beenvandalised and burgled from April to lastmonth. A staggering 217 incidents havebeen reported during this period, the Cityof Cape Town confirms.

And sports clubs and Municipal FacilityManagement Committees are calling on theCity to step up security at its facilities, asthey fear the continuous criminal activitiesmay stifle and end operations and play atthe organisations and facilities.

Bennet Bailey, chairperson of the RygateLocal Football Association (LFA) whichcalls Johnson Road Sports Complex in Ry-lands its home, says vandals stripped thefacility to its core in the first week of Octo-ber – only a couple of weeks after the endof the football season. He claims the damageincurred as a result of the vandalismamounts to R200 000, a cost which they can-not cover.

“The interior of the clubhouse wasstripped bare; all the cabling and wiringwas removed. The wiring of the floodlightswas also removed and the electricity boxwas removed and damaged,” Bailey ex-plains.

Similarly, chairperson of the Metropoli-tan LFA Wayne Weitz says the Metropoli-tan Sports Complex in Bonteheuwel was hitat the end of October. As a result of the inci-dent, which saw the facility stripped to re-semble a shell, the organisation had in-curred the extra expense of having to re-place the trophies and medals for its annualprizegiving days before the event.

“Everything was fine during the seasonexpect for the odd burglary, but when theseason ended and there was less activity atthe facility, the criminals pounced,” hesays.

“The MFMC is constantly reminded thatit is not the owner of the facility, but onlythe custodians. Yet the owner, the City,doesn’t take responsibility for its assets.”

In local sporting circles, Weitz adds,there has been talk of several facilities be-ing vandalised over the last couple ofmonths. “There was a time when securityguards were placed at the facility, but theyinformed us their contract had come to anend and that was the end of security,” heexplains.

“The City spends millions [on] upgradesand maintaining facilities, so I believe theyshould protect it or the work will be use-less.”People’s Post has previously reported on

the burglary and vandalism of several

sports facilities across the peninsula overthe last couple of months. These include theStephan Reagan, Rocklands and Strandfon-tein sports complexes and Swartklip IndoorSports Centre in Mitchell’s Plain, the Hoos-ain Parker Sports Complex in Parkwoodand the Johnson Road Sports Complex.

Furthermore, People’s Post’s sister publi-cation TygerBurger has reported on inci-dents at the Wesbank Sports Complex, Dur-banville Sports Complex and RuyterwachtSports Complex, while its other sister pub-lication City Vision reported on an incidentat the Gugulethu and Philippi swimmingpools. Incidents of burglary and vandalismwere also reported at clubhouses at Kraai-fontein Sports Complex.

Despite the reported number of inci-dents, the City says it cannot provide con-tinuous security presence at the its publicopen spaces and facilities.

Mayoral Committee member for Commu-nity Services and Special Projects, BelindaWalker, says a “limited budget” of R36mwas allocated for security in the Sport, Rec-reation and Amenities Department budget.

“The department has had to rationalisethe use of security personnel at some of itsfacilities to remain within the allocatedbudget in the current financial year for se-curity services,” she says.

“The department manages a largenumber of public facilities across the cityand has identified hotspots where facilitiesare particularly vulnerable to theft andvandalism – security personnel will bepresent at these facilities. It is closely moni-toring these facilities to find the most effec-tive and financially sustainable options forsecuring them against theft and vandal-ism.”

But human presence in the form of secu-rity guards may not be the only option,Walker adds, as the City has invested con-siderably with the erection of fences and in-stallation of alarms. It is also working to es-tablish partnerships with community or-ganisations such as neighbourhoodwatches to assist them in deterring theftand vandalism at facilities.

The City has spent R4,8m on repairs andreplacing items at facilities which have fall-en victim to theft and vandalism, Walkerconfirms. “This is money that could havebeen put to better use to either upgradethese facilities or provide additional facili-ties in areas where there are limited or nosport and recreation facilities,” she says.

“Now, more than ever, we need our com-munities to work in collaboration with usand take ownership of their recreationalspaces. We urge residents to report any sus-picious behaviour immediately.”V Report incidents anonymously on the toll­freenumber 0800 225 669.
