SALT RIVER
Old buildinggets new coatNICOLE MCCAIN
@nickymccain
Changes are on the cards for a heritagebuilding in Salt River.
The property has been gathering dustand worse, according to residents.
On the market for four months, the AlbertRoad property is slowly falling apart and at-tracting rodents, says Salt River Ratepayers’Association chairperson Warda Rahim.
The building was recently brought to herattention after strong winds nearly liftedmetal roof sheets covering the sidewalk, shesays.
And with only one tenant left at the prop-erty, two empty shops, which have not beencleaned, are attracting rats, Rahim says.
The property has been listed for R2.4m andretains many original Victorian features,says estate agent Mark Clench.
Built in 1899, the building consists of threeshops and covered back courtyards.
The property has been identified by theCity of Cape Town as a Grade III A heritageresource, says Johan van der Merwe, mayor-al committee member for energy, environ-mental and spatial planning.
“This means that the building has a highlocal heritage significance. It is a single-sto-rey shop dating from 1899. It is a very goodarchitectural example with very fine Victo-rian-style detailing,” he says.
Property owner Ian Smith says he boughtthis building few years back out of concernthe “area was losing its heritage”, as olderbuildings were being renovated and losingtheir old features, he says.
Smith completed renovations, but saysmanaging the property has been a struggleever since.
“We have since had a number of foreign-ers who rented and simply did not pay rent,”he says.
“We have been struggling to have themevicted and it has taken us eight months toevict the tenant. They owe us over R50 000in unpaid rent and water.”
Bad tenants have disconnected electricitymeters or broken the plate glass windows,
which have left Smith with a bill of overR25 000.
A local business owner, who did not wishto be identified, says the property has a nega-tive impact on business.
“The one shop door is slightly ajar and isinfested with rats. You can see the rats run-ning in and out,” she says.
“It’s very dirty. The tenants moved outand just left it like that. You can’t own a prop-erty and just leave it like that. You have tolook after your investment.”
Smith says the rodents are a result of aneighbouring tenant, who “without necessa-ry permits started to grind cassava in theback of the property” .
Smith immediately contacted a pest con-trol service and the tenant has since left, hesays.
Run-down properties are a common prob-lem along the stretch, says Rahim.
“In general buildings are not maintainedand are left to run down,” she says.
Trading also often takes place on the pave-ment and these factors have left residents“up in arms”.
“We’d like landlords to work together withresidents so that we can improve the areaand bring more business to Salt River,” shesays.
However, the property will be undergoingrenovations in the next few months, Smithsays.
“The building also had the most beautifulsteel poles to support the veranda outside,which were knocked out of the ground andstolen by addicts in the area.
“I’ve now purchased a similar cast ironpole and am having more manufactured tokeep the features and heritage of the build-ing intact,” he says.
A team of builders will also be on site fromthis week to remove a steel roof, which wasflagged by the association as a concern, andthe building is going to be painted in antiquegrey and white, Smith says. The gables willalso be restored to the originals.
“The building urgently has to be takencare of, and you will see a transformationover the next few weeks,” Smith promises.
The Cecil John Rhodesstatue at the University ofCape Town was temporarilyremoved last week Thursday.See story on page 2.

Gun owners in firing lineNICOLE MCCAIN
@nickymccain
Amendments to the Firearms ControlAct may bring harsher sentences forcriminals and new tracking systems,
but gun owners believe they are beingtreated unfairly.The amendment bill proposes a mini-
mum sentence for crimes committed witha firearm aswell as a new tracking systemfor gunsby rolling out theuse ofmicrodotsand ballistic sampling.Gun Free South Africa spokesperson
Claire Taylor believes the new bill will ad-dress the use and misuse of guns by thepolice.The amendments propose increased
oversight and responsibility by policecommand structures for the use and mis-use of firearms by officers. They also spellout the duties of designated firearms offi-cers, who are specifically appointed policeofficers at station level responsible formanaging firearms.Ballistic sampling andmicrodotswill be
used on all guns held by official institu-tions, including the police.John Welch, spokesperson of the South
African Gunowners’ Association, says thenew tracking system is impractical andhas “huge financial and security implica-tions”.“We are currently in discussions with
experts in this technology and, unless weare ensured that these processes willachieve the intended objective, we shalloppose them.“We are of the view that these additional
security measures only need to apply tothe police and other state departmentssince more firearms are probably lost orstolen from these officials than from pri-
vate license holders,” he says.Quarterly reports will also be submitted
to the minister of police on the loss andtheft of police weapons.The amendments will go a long way in
preventing the leak of firearms from thelegal to the illegal pool, says Taylor.“The police annual reports show that al-
most 350 000 firearmswere reported as lostor stolen by civilians and police between1994 and 2014.“This is an average of 17 500 guns each
year or 48 guns every day over the past 20years,” she says.Since the Firearms Control Act was im-
plemented, gundeaths in the countryhavesteadily declined, Taylor believes.“Nevertheless, data
shows that 18 peopleare shot and killed ev-ery day.While 18 a dayis very high, indica-tions are that gundeaths and injurieshave been increasingsince 2011; we believethis is because of poorimplementation of theact,” she says.The bill will also see
tighter controls for gun owners.The amendmentswill shiftmore respon-
sibility to gun owners to demonstratetheir “fit and proper” status and to haveto continue to do so while owning agun.“The current Firearms Control Act al-
ready includes this shift, whereas underthe previous gun law – the Arms and Am-munition Act, the state was required toprove the person was not fit. This princi-ple is deepened andwidened in the amend-ment,” Taylor explains.
Taylor adds that between 2001 and 2014,eight times as many guns were lost byor stolen from civilians than police offi-cers.“The most recent figures show that in
2013/14 civilians reported the loss or theftof 18 guns per day and police two guns aday,” she says.Welch objects to the “heavy burden on
law-abiding firearm owners” the amend-ments create.“Some firearm owners might find the
new provisions impractical andfinancially too cumbersome and then de-cide to rather not comply, hence becomingcriminal.“This must not happen,” he says.
The associationpromotes the lawful,safe and responsiblepossession and use offirearms by peoplewho are competent topossess them, Welchsays.“We support all
reasonable measuresto rid society of crimeand to make society asafer place for all to
live in and to enjoy their freedom, rightsand privileges.“Freedom, however, comes at a price
and often one needs to measure the priceof freedom against safety,” he says.The organisation believes that people
must be free to decide what hobbies orsport to participate in, Welch says.“This includes the right to choose
whether or not they wish to lawfullypossess firearms, provided they live ahealthy lifestyle and do not do crime,” hesays.
An average of 17 500 gunsa year – or 48 guns a day
– were reported stolenover the past 20 years

UCT sees urgency fordebate on statuesAfter a special sitting by the UCT Councilthe Cecil John Rhodes statue was tempora-rily removed last Thursday.Archbishop Njongonkulu Ndungane,
chairperson of the Council, says it voted infavour of removing the statue from UCT’sUpper Campus last Wednesday.Ndungane says this follows amonth-long
series of protests by UCT students whichinformed the debate around statues, sym-bols and the impact these have on the cli-mate of inclusiveness on the UCT campus.Andrew Hall, CEO of Heritage Western
Cape, and Gerda Kruger, UCT spokesper-son, confirm that a permit had been grant-ed to UCT for thetemporary removalof the statue.Hall and Kruger
say the permit fortemporary removalgrants UCT theright to legally re-move the statue forstorage at an alter-native venue thathas to be to the satisfaction of HeritageWestern Cape.Hall and Kruger explain that the permit
for temporary removal is granted pendingan application for permanent removalwithin 90 days. This will include a processof wider public participation.Ndungane says although the vice-chan-
cellor had announced a programme to re-view symbols and names in October lastyear, the depth and breadth of feelings onthe issue unleashed by the student protest“challenged us to accelerate the considera-tion of the Rhodes statue, in particular”.Ndungane says this process has been or-
derly and deliberative, canvassing theviews of students, the Senate, academic,professional, administrative and supportstaff, the convocation, alumni and the pub-
lic.“It has certainly been enriched by hun-
dreds of articles in the newspapers, discus-sions on radio and television and on socialmedia.“We have noted the extent of the support
amongst all the groupings for removing thestatue,” he says.Ndungane further says this process has
been vindicated by the number of peoplewho entered the debates opposed to remov-ing the statue and who have changed theirminds as a result of the frank engagementon the issue.“This is exactly how a university should
work andwe believeit is an example tothe country in deal-ing with heritage is-sues,” he says.Ndungane says
the Upper Campusprecinct is a de-clared provincialheritage site and isthus subject to heri-
tage legislation.“UCTwill immediately submit an applica-
tion to Heritage Western Cape to have thestatue removed. However, in view of theCouncil decision we have concerns aboutthe safety of the statue and believe that theonly way to protect it while Heritage West-ern Cape is considering our application, isto temporarily remove it for safekeeping,”he says.Meanwhile, the university will continue
with the planned review of other symbolsand names this year.“Furthermore, the student engagement
on this issuehas added an energy andurgen-cy to addressing many other aspects oftransformation and hasmobilisedmembersof the university community not previouslyseized with the issue,” Ndungane says.
“The student engagement onthis issue has added anenergy and urgency to
addressing many otheraspects of transformation”
TAMING THE TEEN
The hole inthe boatA COLUMN BY GAVIN FISH
I gate-crashed amatric lesson. The educatorgraciously allowedmy intrusion. The pupilswere more suspicious.I told them of a conversation I had been
a part of the previous day; that they were“not a nice class to teach”.I was troubled by that. They are matrics
after all.I asked them why? Was it true?Defences rose rapidly, acknowledgements
of guilt had rapid-fire “yes, but” accompani-ments.Much was made of the sins of the educa-
tors, but so too of their own. The conversa-tion settled downas individuals spoke closerand closer to the bone.One pupil’s powerful insight turned the
tone of the discussion: “I don’t think we un-derstand the power we have to disrupt, northe effect that it has.”We agreed that no future employer would
ever be interested in the reason why theireducator was to blame for the horrific markthey received in this or that subject. Fur-thermore, that the better their final markswere, the broader the range of opportunitiesawaiting them later.Learning is negatively affected in an un-
happy environment and we know that welearn best when we are enjoying both thework and the class.Both parties are admitting that the dy-
namic is not working, neither are happywith that fact.What to do?I suggested that they take the initiative.
That it was not a case of who is more in theright or in the wrong.Where a relationship is unsettled, address
it. Even, or especially, when you are feelingaggrieved. Decidewhat you need to do to im-prove things. Don’t make your approach de-pendant on what the “other” is or isn’t pre-pared to do.Wehave to growpast a “if hewon’t do this,
then I won’t do that” mind-set.Yes, I will be speaking with the educators
as well.Iwaspassedadelicious cartoon thismorn-
ing. Twomen sitting at one end of a boat thatis clearly sinking remark: “Isn’t it fortunatethat the hole isn’t at our end of the boat.”Say no more!

PEOPLE'S POST | WOODSTOCK | MAITLANDTuesday, 14 April 2015 NEWS 3N2 FOOTBRIDGES
Names given soonThe naming of seven footbridges along
the N2 highway is set to be finalised atthe next council meeting.
The City of Cape Town’s naming commit-tee has recommended specific names for theseven footbridges crossing NelsonMandelaBoulevard and Rhodes Drive.These recommendations are with the
mayor for approval, says naming commit-tee chairperson Brett Herron.“If the mayor supports these names, they
will be recommended to council for a finaldecision during the next council meeting,”he says.The seven names were chosen from over
2000 proposals submitted by Capetoniansduring a public participation process thatwas conducted during November 2013 andFebruary 2014, says Herron.“In the end, 638 compliant naming pro-
posals – ranging fromwell-known SouthAf-ricans to general names honouring our richcultural heritage and fauna and flora –wereconsidered by the committee,”Herron says.However, during the public participation
period some community members spokeout against the naming, saying it was awaste of resources (“Naming route an ‘utterwaste’”, People’s Post, 7 November 2013).The proposed names include /A!kunto,
the first contributor to the Wilhelm Bleekand Lucy Lloyd Archive of /xam and !kuntexts, and Dawid Kruiper, a traditionalhealer and leader of theKhomani San in theKalahari who spoke for the rights of indige-nous people at the United Nations in 1994and led the way for successful land claimsfor the San people in South Africa.Tuan Guru, regarded as the father of Is-
lam in South Africa, has also been put for-wardby thenaming committee.Hewasban-ished by the Dutch invaders to the Cape in1780 andwas incarcerated onRobben Islandfor 12 years where he wrote several copiesof the Holy Qur’an from memory.
Other religious figures have also be hon-oured in the proposal, such as Father JohnOliver, theAnglicanpriest fromDistrict Sixwho founded theCapeTown Interfaith Initi-ative and spent many years building bridg-es between the different faiths, highlightingour similarity rather than our differences,and Father Basil van Rensburg, the SouthAfricanCatholic priest who gained interna-tional recognition for his fight against theapartheid regime’s forced removal of thepeople of District Six.Iconic South African poet Ingrid Jonker,
whose poem “Die Kind” was read out byformer President Nelson Mandela duringthe opening of South Africa’s first demo-cratic parliament in May 1994, and well-known and loved singer, composer and di-rectorTaliepPetersen,whowon thehighesthonour in British theatre with David Kra-mer, have also been put forward as namesfor the footbridges.

has been gripped with fear. There are ongo-ing robberies, shootings and murders. Ourchildren are no longer safe, even at school,”the statement says.The association is calling on the authori-

jured. The gangsters shoot over each otherand they don’t get injured, yet innocent peo-ple do. We are like prisoners, too scared togo to the shop or the park,” she says.Ward councillor Lisa McBride is appeal-
ing to residents to start reporting youth andfamilymembers who are involved in gangs.“The children coming out of school are at

Does your card expire next month?It has been three eventful years since the launch ofMyCiTi’s innovative automated fare system and themyconnect card. More than 500 000myconnect cardshave been issued and they have become a must-haveitem in the wallets and purses of residents and visitorsto Cape Town.
If your card expires in May, don’t wait. Visit the dedicated card expiry kiosks at Civic Centre or Table View stations toget your replacement card.
Changes toMyCiTi services inCampsBayWhat passengers like about MyCiTi
Yourmyconnect card ismuch more than a ticketto ride the ever-expanding
network of MyCiTi routes. It’salso a sophisticated bankingproduct. There are two sectionsto themyconnect. One allows youto load Mover points that saveyou 30% on fares, no matter whattime or what day of the week youtravel. The other allows you toload money, which can be used topay for your MyCiTi fares at theStandard rate, or to use a debitcard to pay for purchases of upto R200 at any shopthat accepts debitcards. You canhave the bestof both worldsby loading moneyin both sections atonce time.
The only drawbackto it being a banking
card is that it has an expiry dateon the face of the card. If youwere one of the first passengersto start using the system, or youreceived a free card in one of thepromotions around the launch ofa new route, your card may beone of the first batch of 10 000that are expiring on 31 May 2015.
Here’s the good newsCheck the face of the card and ifthe date is 05/15 then you only
have a few moreweeks to useit. The goodnews is thatthe balance
on your card,whether itis loaded asStandard or
Mover points,will not expire and
can be immediately transferred
weeks to use it. The good
card to pay for purchases of up
Mover points, will not expire and
to a new card, which will beissued to you free.
Get your new replacement cardfree of charge at one of the specialcard expiry kiosks at Civic Centreand Table View stations. All youhave to do is to take your ID book,passport or driver’s licence alongwith your expiring card to get yournew card. The process takes 10-
to-15 minutes. Your balance will betransferred immediately.
And now for the bad newsIf you leave it to the last few days– like many other passengers willdo – there will be long queuesat the card expiry kiosks, whichwill be frustrating. Because ofthe nature of the card expiry,
there can be no extension of thedeadline of 31 May 2015.
If you miss the deadline, yourcard won’t work when you wantto tap in on 1 June and you willhave to buy a new card for R35.You won’t lose the money loadedon your expired card but it willtake 31 days for the balance to betransferred to your new one.
On Monday, 20 April2015 major roadworkswill begin along part of
Camps Bay Drive. This will meanchanges to both MyCiTi routesuntil around September.
106 Civic Centre - Camps Bay(clockwise)This route will operate as acircular route in Camps Bayonly and it will no longer servethe central city area. Buseswill continue to operate alongCamps Bay Drive through theconstruction zone but may besubject to delays. Passengerswishing to travel to and from
the central city must change toroute 107 buses at Comrie stopin Geneva Drive.
107 Civic Centre - Camps Bay(anti-clockwise)This route will be cancelledbetween the lower intersectionof Camps Bay Drive and GenevaDrive and the upper intersectionof Camps Bay Drive and GenevaDrive. Instead, after leavingVictoria Road and the beachfront,the route will travel up GenevaDrive, returning to the centralcity via Kloof Nek. The followingbus stops along the cancelledportion will not be in operation
on route 107: Lower Camps Bay,Houghton, Rontree, Fiskaal andRavensteyn.
Passengers coming from thecity centre will have to transferfrom one route to anotherin Camps Bay to reach theirdestination, if it is on the cancelledportion of route 107. Similarly,passengers on route 106 willhave to transfer to a route 107bus to travel over Kloof Nek tothe central city area. The transferpoint between the two routes isComrie bus stop in Geneva Drive.
Adjusted timetables will beavailable at bus stops and fromthe website, www.myciti.org.za
Cindy Zibaya“I commute from home inKhayelitsha to Sea Point, andMyCiTi saves me about threehours a day in travelling time. It’svery good.”

The ladies team of the OldMutual Crick-et Club celebrates the end of the seasonwith two trophies in the bag.
Led byWestern Province opening bat andoff break bowler Carolyn Esterhuizen theteam won both the WP Women’s PremierLeague 50 over competition and T20 cup.The teammanaged this feat despite losing
to the runners-up in the round robin stagesof both competitions.
50 over finalOne of these runners-up was five times 50over champion Bellville Ladies, who boastsa number of provincial players.Old Mutual scored an impressive 204/7 in
the 50 over final against Bellville Ladies,with solid contributions by Esterhuizen (54)and young prodigy Laura Wolfaardt (60).Saarah Smith also contributed a useful 28.Chasing 205 to win, Bellville Ladies
showed that spin-bowling is its Achilles heelas bowlers Esterhuizen (1 for 29 in 8 overs)and Insaaf Ismail (4 for 56 in 9 overs) con-tained them.Bellville Ladies could only reach 154 all
out from 39 overs. Alexis le Breton, WP cap-tain, was the only resistance and ended on62.
T20 finalOld Mutual Ladies faced the UWC Ladies inthe T20 day/night final at Sahara Park New-lands. UWC topped the T20 round robin logfor the season. Having lost twice to the sea-son’s log leaders in the round robinmatches,Old Mutual went into the final as the under-dogs.Sending UWC in to bat allowed the Old
Mutual quick bowlers to blow UWC out ofthe park. Wolfaardt (1 for 10 in 4 overs) andNadima Khan (1 for 10 in 4 overs) bowled ac-curately to set the trend, but it was 16-year-old Tala Ross who stamped her mark on thegame and ended with a career best of 5 for8 in 3.1 overs.OldMutual namedher its play-er of the match.UWC could only muster up 65 all out in 19
overs which Old Mutual chased down with32 balls to spare. Esterhuizen achieved thetop score with 20 and Saarah Smith scored16.
