A church in Steenberg hasbeen left without music afterburglars made off with their
musical instruments.This came to light after Pastor
Carl Cupido, from the OmegaEkklesia Ministries in Celie Road,visited his church on Wednesday18 June and made the discovery.“I arrived at church and discov-ered that the lock on the door has
been replaced, I then broke intomyown church damaging the door inthe process and discovered thatmost of the equipment – valued ataboutR120 000 – I had in the churchhad been stolen.“I immediately called the police
who responded within 30 minutesto take a statement,” says Cupido.He adds that a security guard
who was on patrol informed himthat they had found the churchdoor open.
“The security guys came in and
informed us that they found thedoor open on Sunday evening andfitted one of their own locks to thedoor.“As [security for the landlord]
why did they not inform me? I payR600 a month to use their servicesand they never informedme,” saysCupido.The stolen goods include two
keyboards, a laptop, two harddrives, a computer, four mics, twosoundmixers, two speakers, lights,an amplifier and a TV.
“I urge the community to assistus by not buying stolen goods andto call the police if people are ap-proaching them with musicalitems to buy,” says Cupido.Constable Kemelo Thelejane,
from Kirstenhof police says thecase is still being investigated.“A case of burglary has beenopened and at this stage we areawaiting the fingerprints to arriveand so that we can assess and proc-ess them.“We will be in contact with Pas-
tor Cupido about the investiga-tion” says Thelejane.Cupido adds that the church has
suffered a financial setback be-cause of the burglary.“We have been occupying the
current place this place for threemonths and now all our equipmenthas been stolen. Financially thishas put us on the backfoot and weare appealing to businesses to as-sist us with any donation, especial-ly to assist our band and musi-cians,” says Cupido.

MUNICIPALITY: CLAIM OF ‘HUGE DELAYS’ IN SCHEDULE
City irons outglitches in newplanning systemDESIREÉ RORKE
@dezzierorke
“Teething problems” with a new sys-tem implemented at the planningand building development offices of
the City of Cape Town have caused a backlogthat has local developers hot under the collar.Not denying this, the City however is full ofpraise for this new system, which was intro-duced on 1 April, saying operational “glitch-es” are being seen to currently and as the sys-tem becomes more refined, the process willbecome more efficient.A People’s Post source who wishes to re-
main anonymous, says his work schedulesare months behind as he awaits buildingplans to be approved.“I am aware of this new system that has
been in operation sinceMarch, but since thenwe have experienced huge delays,” he says,adding that small new regulations such as be-ing able to hand in only three plans at a time,have cost them many man hours.But Johan van der Merwe, mayoral com-
mittee member for economic, environmentaland spatial planning, this week thanked in-dustry roleplayers for their patience with theassurance that this new system, once fully op-erational, will result in substantial benefitsfor applicants.“Whenever a new system is implemented,
it inevitably affects the process until the newsystem stabilises. This is required in theshort-term in order to streamline the process
in the long-term and to effectively implementan improved system,” he says.He admits there have been minimal delays
but added most of the applications are beingprocessed. “Applicants are welcome to sub-mit more than three plans. However, as ameasure to ensure that submissions are dealtwith more speedily, applicants submittingmore than three plans are requested to sub-mit their plans at a different counter,” he add-ed.Van der Merwe describes the new Develop-
ment Application Management System(DAMS) as “pioneering”.This is an integrated system that links to
the City’s Property Value Chain and account-ing system (SAP). It also makes provision forstandardised processing of development ap-plications.Another feature of the new system is that
applicants can now also submit plans and ap-plications electronically and obtain approv-als electronically.“The City of Cape Town is the only metro
who has implemented such a system. TheDAMS development team is working veryhard to ‘de-bug’ the systemof anyglitches andis also looking at other initiatives to supportthe operating districts to overcome any oper-ational challenges. Departmental staff are re-fining the system and speedily addressingany glitches so that the applicants can experi-ence the benefits of this system, which isunique to the City of Cape Town,” he says.Van Der Merwe adds that, although there
hasbeenan inevitable impact on turn-aroundtimes for the processing of applications, it isimportant to note that the initial recordsshow the majority of finalised applicationsstill fall within the statutory required time-lines.Measures to address delays have been put
into place. “This includes the establishmentof a support centre to speedily address issuesraised and to assist users where they have ex-perienced problems when using the system,”he says. Clients experiencing service deliv-ery problems can also contact the relevantdistrict managers if they feel their applica-tions are not processed as expected.V The public can submit any feedback or queries to EmilSchnackenberg at emil.schnackenberg@capetown.gov.za.

PARKWOOD ESTATE: WIDOW SLAMS FUNERAL SERVICE AS ‘PATHETIC’
Six feet in shameHENRY BOOYSEN
@henryspoke
A grievingwidow fromParkwoodEstateclaims a funeral parlour buried herlate husband in shame.
Sharon Amansure claims the MorningStar Pentecostal Funeral Fund in Retreatmadeamockeryofwhatwas tobeadignifiedfuneral she had planned for her husband.“As a family all we wanted was to give my
husband a dignified send off. The service wereceived from the fund was pathetic. I can-not believe that my husband was buried insuch a disgraceful manner,” says an emo-tional Amansure.She continues that everythingwentwrong
on the day she had visited the funeral par-lour to pay her funeral fund premiums.“I was at Victoria Hospital with my hus-
band on the day the premium collector hadcome to fetch the money.“The next day I went to Morning Star to
inform them about his death and they re-moved his remains without any problems.I then immediately paid my premiums forApril, May and June.“The following day I returned to Morning
Star to start preparing for the funeral whenthey toldme thatmy fundwas cancelled andI needed to pay cash to bury my husband.I have been with the fund since 2008 and Istill have another three policies with them.“I cannot believe that after all this time of
being a loyal member of their fund theywould treat me like this when I needed theirhelp the most. I paid them the money theywanted because I wanted everything to runsmoothly.”Amansure says after the plans were done
with Morning Star, the biggest humiliationfor her family was when they discovered atthe funeral that her husband’s remains hadnot been washed and prepared for burial.“His facewas dirty, hewas not shaved and
hewasnotdressed in the clothes thatwe senthim. We were so embarrassed, it seemed asthough they took his remains and chuckedit into the casket. I apologised tomy late hus-band for the way he was treated,” saysAmansure.Raymond Arendse, a coordinator from
Morning Star Pentecostal Funeral Fund,says they are still investigating the com-plaints made by Amansure.“We acknowledge that Mrs Amansure
brought new clothing for her husband andwe will refund the value of the clothes. Wemake use of various service providers foreach funeral andwill investigate every com-plaint given to us by Mrs Amansure. Thisis an isolated case and we understand thatthis was a traumatic experience for MrsAmansure and her family.“If we find that our service providers or
Morning Star was at fault, then we can lookat some sort of reimbursement,” saysArendse.On itswebsite theNational Funeral Direc-
tors’ Association of South Africa says funer-
al parlours do not need to belong to an um-brella association, and that it is still current-ly setting up legislation which will regulatethe funeral industry.Amansure continues that the hearse sped
off while the funeral procession was travel-ling to the cemetery and the undertakersthen left with the flowers which were to beused at the cemetery.
“I’m not sure if the staff of Morning Starhad other obligations to attend to, but thehearse and two family cars sped off to Plum-stead Cemetery, leaving the bus and otherfamily members behind.“My husband was a respected man in our
community, andMorningStarmade amock-ery of his funeral,” says Amansure.Arendse says that Morning Star will be
meeting with Amansure after their investi-gation is complete.“We have never experienced any com-
plaints of this nature. We apologise for whatMrsAmansure and her familywent throughon the day. We care for our customers andwill ensure that we improve our services toavoid this kind of event happening again,”says Arendse.

LAVENDER HILL: FAREWELL TO SCHOOL STALWART
School greetsvolunteerHENRY BOOYSEN
@henryspoke
When June Orsmond entered thegates of Lavender Hill HighSchool 14 years ago, she didn’t
realise the impact the school, its staffand pupils would eventually have on herlife.The Marina da Gama resident has left
a legacy in the lives of a community rid-den with gang violence, drug abuse anda high unemployment rate.After spendingmost of her days volun-
teering her services, initiating develop-ment projects and assisting with fund-raising efforts, Orsmond hung up herboots last week. And she looks back onher time spent at the school with fondmemories.“It is going to be difficult to say good-
bye to Lavender Hill High. I have en-joyed my time and will always remem-ber the struggles we had, but also thelaughs we shared,” she says.“I do not see myself as a volunteer –
my passion to give back stems from alifelong love for reading and a belief thatteachers are role models.”Orsmond, a member of the Wynberg
Rotary Club, is the founding member ofthe Lavender Hill Development Trust(LHDT). The organisation aids the com-munity with various projects includingthe youth empowerment projects.“I ask everyone who continues my
[legacy] to notwaste theirmental energyon the negative side of life, but rather onthe positive aspect life has to offer,” Ors-mond says.Last Thursday the school bid farewell
to its stalwart, with a ceremony dedicat-ed to the work she has done for both theschool and the broader community.It was an opportunity for staff and pu-
pils to reminisce on their time spent
with Orsmond, as well as thank her fortouching their lives.An emotional principal Faseeg Manie
remembered his first encounterwith hisnow-close friend.“In 2000, I met her at a lodge in Tokai
to discuss literacy campaigns. Themeet-ing eventually led to her visiting theschool,” he said.“She decided to spend her glory days
with us, in a troubledLavenderHillwithits socio-economic problems.”Her contributions to the school, he
said, will benefit the school for manyyears. “Monetary contributions and in-vestments she brought to the school doesnot match her heart of caring. We oweher tremendous debt of gratitude forwhat she has done for us,” Manie said.He further attributed the success of
the school’s daily feeding scheme andthe improved matric pass rate to thework efforts of Orsmond.“Lavender Hill High School is smiling
because of the impact Orsmond has hadon the school,” Manie said.And to pay their dues to her,Manie re-
vealed the school’s new hall will benamed after her.LHDT chairperson Kevin Southgate
describedOrsmond’s contribution to theLavender Hill community as “signifi-cant”.When she founded the organisation
four years ago, she took the reins aschairperson for two years and gracious-ly steppeddown to leaveSouthgate at thehelm.“I had big shoes to fill when I took over
from Orsmond as chairperson. She isone phenomenal woman, who will bemissed. Lavender Hill High staff, pupilsand Mr Manie have to be really gratefulfor all her efforts,” Southgate said.“We wish her many years of good
health with her family and friends.”

A neighbourhood watch patrolling thestreets at night have expressed con-cern about the possibility that prosti-
tution is taking place outside the GrassyPark Hotel.The issue was highlighted by membersof a neighbourhood watch meeting whenit raised concern that increased illicit ac-tivity is ensuing outside the hotel betweendrunk patrons and women.“We have noticed that when patrons areleaving the premises under the influenceof alcohol they are often targeted by wom-en offering to escort them further on theirjourney. We have also seen that patronswho have plenty of money on them are of-ten victims of robbery from the women ormen working side by side with the wom-en,” says a member, who wants to remainanonymous for security reasons.“It is all planned; we watch them fromthe side of the road and see these thingshappening. The unfortunate case is thatthe victims do not lay charges at the policebecause they do not want to be involved incases and incidents which involve prosti-tutes.”
Lieutenant-Colonel Labuschagne, theacting station commander for Grassy Parkpolice, says that theyhavenot receivedanyformal complaints about prostitution out-side the hotel.“ I can confirm that there are rumoursand allegations about prostitution takingplace outside the hotel, but we cannot fol-low up on anything if we do not have theevidence. It’s a difficult situation becausepeople want to be discreet about situationsof this nature, but as soon as we have anyhard evidence, we will follow it up,” saysLabuschagne.An employee of the Grassy Park hotel,who wishes to remain anonymous, saysthat their institution strongly disapprovesthe allegations.“I have never heard of anything of suchnature. Entertainment areas do attract an-ti-social behaviour, but we have not re-ceived any complaints or heard of allega-tions of this nature taking place outsideour business premises.“We have security patrolling outside ourpremises for 24 hours a day and we do notwant our business to be guilty by associa-tion.We strongly disapprove of this behav-iour and we do not associate our businessto such practices,” he says.
Richard Bosman, director for Safety andSecurity for the City of Cape Town, says nocomplaints have been brought to the atten-tion of the City’s vice squad.“No specific hotspots have been identi-fied in theGrassyPark area, but numerouswomen found soliciting in the surroundingsuburbs have been found to reside inGrassy Park,” says Bosman.He adds that the City’s vice squad will
now monitor the area.“Prostitution is an illegal activity andthe City specifically established the vicesquad to enforce the regulations governingthese contraventions. The unit not onlyprosecutes offenders but also offers assist-ance to thosewomenwhowant to leave thesex trade. The vice squad will carry outspecific operations in the area to curb anyillegal activities taking place,” he says.

The man offered to help mefix my car and kept pointing out variousproblems,” she says.She offered to pay him R100 towards hispetrol to thank him. She says she noticedthere was no petrol cap and pointed it out.He came to the woman’s Wynberg homeand looked at the car. He told her he workedat a Goodwood service station and gave her
advice as he fixed the car.He took the car for a test drive and thewoman says she was frightened by his driv-ing.“He was driving so fast and I kept askinghim not to,” she explains.He told thewomanandher familyhe couldfix her car “on the side” at a nominal price.At 17:45 she received a call from the manindicating she should bring her car to aworkshop in Goodwood. “I understood heneeded to do so as he did not have the toolsat home,” she says.Along with a relative the woman drove toN1 City and called the number he had con-tacted her on. The man later appeared andsaid she should drive the car to the work-shop.She wasn’t comfortable waiting at the
workshop as he told her to lie and say shewas a relative of his. She agreed to wait atN1 City while he serviced her car.“We were told it would take about 90 min-utes but at 22:30 we started to get anxiousand called the number but were informed itwas not Adams’ number,” she explains.The man on the phone said he knew Ad-ams but had not seen him since earlier thatday.Realising the car had been stolen, thewoman and her relative reported the case attheGoodwoodPoliceStation.As theydidnothave any paperwork for the car, they weretold to return the next day.

RESTITUTION: PRESIDENT SIGNS AMENDED BILL
Land claimsopen, woundsget to healNICOLE MCCAIN
@nickymccain
H undreds of people forcibly removedunder the Group Areas Act are ex-pected to lodge restitution claims af-
ter president Jacob Zuma passed the Resti-tution of Land Right Amendment Bill onMonday.
The Bill prescribes changes to the Resti-tution of Land Rights Act no 22 of 1994, andcalls for the reopening of lodgement of landclaims for a period of five years.
The new deadline is 30 June 2019.Now that thepresidenthas signed theBill
into law, the claims process will reopen,says Rural Development and Land Reformminister Gugile Nkwinti.
“The signing of the Restitution of LandRights Amendment Act now paves the wayfor SouthAfrica’s victims of landdisposses-sion to lodge their land claims, for a periodof five years to 2019,” he says.
“We have opened 14 lodgement officesand sites across the country in all nineprovinces. These sites are equipped withadvanced technology to ensure speedy andaccurate capture of relevant information.[Claimants] will be assisted by trained staffand every effort will be made to ensure theprocess, from the submission of a claim tothe time it is settled, is a smooth one.”
District Six Working Committee chair-person Shahied Ajam says many could notlodge claims as the original processwas notcarried inmassmedia. Also, many relocat-ed several times after the forced removals.“Education is a big part of ourwork,” Ajamsays.
Claims will be lodged through an elec-tronic system managed by theCommission
on Restitution of Land Rights and throughclaim forms thatwill only be available fromtheir offices or officials.
The re-openingof the lodgement of claimswill include a comprehensive communica-tion campaign aimed at ensuring that therelevant information is received by all, Nk-winti says.
“To provide further assistance with theprocedure to follow in lodging a land claim,we have developed a manual in all officiallanguages covering for distribution at thelodgement offices and municipality officesacross the country. In addition, to the lodge-ment offices we will deploy mobile units toremote areas to ensure we reach every citi-zenwho qualifies to lodge a claim,” he says.
“As we re-open the lodgement period wearemindful that there are parts of our com-munity that remain excluded by this proc-ess, such as theKhoi and the San communi-ties who are not accommodated by this Res-titution of Land Rights Amendment Act of2014. Their plight is not forgotten. I want toassure them that a policy on the exceptionsto the 1913 Natives Land Act cut-off date isbeing developed that seeks to address theirconcerns.”
Claimants must provide certified copiesof their IDs and those of their parents.
Certified copies of any physical recordsmust also be provided. Records can be ac-cessed at the archives in Roeland Street oraffidavits obtained from neighbours.
When the Bill is signed into law, claimslodged by 31 December 1998 which are notyet settled and finalised shall be simultane-ously processed with the new claims to belodged, Nkasayi says.
Those lodged before 1998 will be priori-tised for settlement.

Play explores hope of people in AfricaLara Foot’s latest play, Fishers ofHope (Taweret), explores themeaning of hope in Africa at theBaxter this month.Foot teams up with researchers
Nina Swart and Masai warriorMiyere Miyandazi to bring to lifethis African tale of hope, choicesand upliftment.Setting the play somewhere in
Africa, Foot returns to her signa-ture style through magical real-ism, physical theatre, texturedimagery and a richly entwinedsoundscape and score with au-thentic African music.SubtitledTaweret, after the pro-
tective ancient mythologicalEgyptian goddess of childbirthand fertility, the play is layeredwith metaphors as it delves intothe social and environmental ef-fects on a family and communityin a fishing village.The cast is led by Mncedisi
Shabangu, who played the role ofthe storyteller in Foot’sTshepangand also takes on the responsibili-ty of assistant director on this pro-duction. The rest of the ensembleis made up of Shaun Oelf, PhillipTipo Tindisa, Lesedi Job and
Philip Dikotla. Musician NcebaGongxeka creates the live sound-track. The young children areplayedbyJunaide Johnson,AzolaGola, Yomzi Tyali Masixole alter-nating with Makuxolwe Sigonya,SimbonileMatshaya and KwandaVuba.Known for her hard-hitting and
award-winning plays which tack-le social issues Foot stayswith thesubject of injustice and this timeshe explores the theme of hope: itsessence, values,meaning, impres-sions, longevity and even possibledemise.Inspired by the documentary
Darwin’s Nightmare the play ex-amines the prospects of hope andlivelihoodwithin theAfrican con-tinent. At its heart it remains adrama which combines the dra-matic and the surreal and servesas a metaphor for the world andits capacity for hope. It is the indi-vidual characters and their rela-tionships that become the story.Lesedi Job plays the central
character Ruth, the only womanin the cast. She ismarried to John(Philip Tipo Tendisa), whose leghas been bitten off by a hippopota-
mus and who therefore can nolonger fish for a living. The coupleraise the mute son, Peter (ShaunOelf) of her older brother,Miyere,an activist, played by PhillipDikotla, who visits with tour-guide family friend Njawu (Mnce-disi Shabangu). Every characteris faced with life-changing choic-es which they have to make.Foot, along with Swart, Miyan-
dazi and Shabangu, spent twoweeks on the lakes of Kenya earli-er this year to research the narra-tive for the play, which originallywasplanned to be set inKenyabuthas developed into amore univer-sal story in Africa.Fishers of Hope previews at the
Baxter Flipside on Thursday 10July, opens on Friday 11 July andruns until Saturday 2 August at19:30, exceptThursday 24 toSatur-day 26 July.

MUNICIPAL SERVICES: RELIEF ON ADMIN BURDEN
City scrapsconnectingdepositsAs of 1 June, the City of Cape Town no
longer raises deposits for connectingtomunicipal services such as electric-
ity, water and refuse removal from residen-tial users.“This shift is intended to improve on the
City’s efficiency and to reduce the adminis-trative burden. This is in linewith our com-mitment to building a well-run city thatmaintains a productive administrationwhich prioritises service delivery to all itsresidents,” says City Mayco member forUtility Services Ernest Sonnenberg.Homeowners will be credited with the
original deposit amount they paid at thetime of applying for the service connection.Thiswill be reflected on theirmunicipal ac-counts in July or August and, if the depositis greater than the account, the remainingcredit will roll over until it is exhausted.The City does not intend to make cash re-
payments. Only homeowners’ municipalaccounts – not those of tenants – will becredited as they have an immovable assetthe City can attach in the event of unpaid
municipal debts.“The City’s pronouncement that residen-
tial users no longer have to pay a connec-tion deposit of R600 and R800 respectivelyfor water and electricity will go a long waytowards easing the cost of living for our res-idents. It is important to note that largepower users and commercial customerswill still have to pay a deposit to the Cityto secure a connection to these services,”says Sonnenberg.In addition, pensioners and people with
disabilities will no longer have to apply fora municipal rebate annually.Council has resolved that these applica-
tions for rebates have to be submitted onlyonce every three years. This will signifi-cantly lessen the administrative burden onboth the applicants – about 26 000 each year– and the City.However, applicants who experience a
significant change (decrease or increase) intheir household income are still required tore-apply for a rebate on their municipal ac-counts in the applicable financial year.
Arrests for beach robberiesFive Vrygrond teenagers were arrested af-ter a spate of robberies at Sunrise Beach.According to Muizenberg police, intense
investigations led to the arrest of the teen-agers – aged between 13 and 15 – onWednes-day 25 June.They allegedly belong to the “Puppy Dog
Gang” in Vrygrond.Police spokesperson Captain Stephen
Knapp says the teens have been linked totwo robberies on Sunday 22 June. A cell-phone stolen in one of the robberies was re-covered by police.Another cellphone was recovered and a
Vrygrond resident was arrested for beingin possession of stolen goods.In a separate incident that same day, a 24-
year-old Vrygrond woman was robbed onher way to work at 06:30. Constable JasonPieterse arrested a woman (19) who wasfound in possession of the stolen items.This included jewellery, clothing, a wal-
let and bag with various personal posses-sions.Knapp says police will continue to inves-
tigate the beach robberies and are lookingat the possibility of the teens being involvedin other incidents.

This could turn out to be a winter of misery.Major strikes are looming, essential services andneces-
sary items such as food and fuel are increasing, and chil-dren on school holiday are forced to remain indoors be-cause people with bad intentions want to have their way.Two school girls in Sybrand Park, near the Athlone
CBD, were nearly abducted by such men. And a womanwas in fact abducted and raped after she went out on thetown.Is ours a city with the hidden motto: “Better safe than
sorry”?What kind of a life is this for our youth and vulnerable
sectors of society?So we are to resort to sitting in the dark while Numsa
members may join in the strike. With many of them Es-kom workers, it is indeed time to stock up on those can-dles.It is then that you would need to strike... a match to
light your way, that is.And, while you’re at it, add hand-operated tin openers
to your shopping cart to liberate the tinned food you’llbe stockpiling when the lights really go out. Eskom hasbeen true to their promises of rolling out blackouts in thepast. It makes little sense to doubt the energy suppliernow.At least some people in this fair city have their wits
about them.Among them the mother of one of the girls who were
nearly abducted. To all those children who still haven’tbeen taught, learn this lesson: if anyone tries to take yousomewhere without your parents’ knowledge or permis-sion, scream at the top of your lungs.Even evil people get embarrassed. You can count on it.As we tuck into warm beds and conserve energy and
body warmth, remember that there are so many othersnot so fortunate.To the evilmongers out there: let the children play. And
grow up at their own pace!
Get rid of the dealersA [plague] is sweeping our country and is de-stroying the very fabric of [life]. [Every] dayone reads how illegal drugs are regarded asa social curse and not to mention the effectson theuser and the burden it places on crimestatistics.One also reads of the great busts done by
our Law Enforcement and what is alarmingis the amount of illegal drugs [confiscated]and quoted [to be worth] billions of rands.There has to be a decisive battle plan to
fight this scourge. Law Enforcement canform well-resourced Dealer Drug Units inour country.We the users [number] in their thousands
and understand the normal policing at locallevel can, in conjunction with Law Enforce-ment, deal with this, but we are crying forDealer Drug Units to deal solely with thedealers. [It can be] a dedicated unit workingwith other government departments to dealeffectively with the illegal drug dealers on[all] levels.This will most definitely restore confi-
dence in our Law Enforcement. Does it notmake sense [to] dealwith the dealers and thesuppliers [will] also suffer [in] the deadlysupply train?KEITH BLAKEEmail

Rates rebates for indigentThe City of Cape Town’s council has re-solved last month that the applications formunicipal rates rebates now have to be sub-mitted only once every three years as op-posed to annually.This will significantly lessen the adminis-
trative burden on both the applicants –about 26 000 eachyear – and theCity as appli-cants have to provide their identity docu-ments, proof of income, tax forms and threemonths’ bank statements with each applica-tion.However, it is important to note that appli-
cants who experience a significant change(decrease or increase) in their household in-come are still required to re-apply for a re-bate on their municipal accounts in the ap-plicable financial year.Those residents who have applied for a
municipal rates rebate during the 2013/14 fi-nancial year and whose financial situationremains unchanged, only have to re-applyfor a rebate as from 1 July 2016.
Pensioners and people with disabilitieswith a household income of R12 000 and lessa month can apply for a municipal rates re-bate which is applied according to the fol-lowing sliding scale:R0 to R3500, the rebate is 100%R3501 to R5000, the rebate is 95%R5001 to R6000, the rebate is 90%R6001 to R7000, the rebate is 80%R7 001 to R8000, the rebate is 70%R8001 to R8500, the rebate is 60%R8501 to R9000, the rebate is 50%R9001 to R9500, the rebate is 40%R9501 to R10 000, the rebate is 30%R10 001 to R11 000, the rebate is 20%R11 001 to R12 000, the rebate is 10%.First-time applicants who are pensioners
and people with disabilities can apply attheirnearestmunicipal office and theymustprovide the required documentation men-tioned above.IAN NEILSONDeputy mayor of Cape Town
Reach outThe national election is over and itlooks like promises have run emptyfor Lavender Hill residents.People have been fooled by empty
promises since the dawn of democra-cy,whichwehave hardly tasted. It hasalways been nothing more than lies.The situation has become worse
than in the days of our forefathers.I fight for human rights and help the
community – I am not attached to anypolitical party. I am not happy withthe way our people are bullied bythose in leadership positions. Thosewith problems are not being listenedto, while no time and effort is made tooffer them advice or help.I spend days solving problems such
as evictions for outstanding rent, wa-ter cuts and maintenance on requestby people [who] made their mark atthe recent elections.People may say we need to give gov-
ernment time to find their feet, but itshould never be difficult to provide ad-equate service to those who voted youin power. It is sad to see no change af-ter 20 years of democracy. People needto be taught the value of democracy.YouthMonth is almost a thing of the
past, yet in Lavender Hill and sur-rounding communities you do not seeorganisations, which receive thou-sands to educate and develop youths,running projects or aiding the youth.But you’ll see them enhancing theirown lives. It is a sad situation, but it’stime we man up and ask ourselveswhat arewedoing tomakeadifferencein the lives off all human beings.CLIVE JACOBSLavender Hill

Waterpolo stars to take on the worldLIAM MOSES
@LiamCPT
Southern Suburbs players are set to playan integral part of theSouthAfricanun-der-19 waterpolo team which will com-
pete at the FinaMen’s YouthWorld Champi-onships next month.Players from Cape Town make up majori-
ty of the 12-man squad, with Bishops, Sacsand Reddam House all represented.The six local players are Andrew During,
Kimon Haralambous, Liam Neill (Bishops),DavidRom (ReddamHouse), JordanRumbe-low and Luke Schooling (Sacs).Brad Rowe, Swimming South Africa head
waterpolo coach, says the national coacheshave been scouting these players for twoyears.“Haralambous is one of three left-handed
players in the team – unusual in waterpolo
– which gives us an attack up the right sideof the pool,” he says.“Neill is one of the two first-choice centre
forwards, while Schooling is another left-hander. We base our defence around JordanRumbelow and the rest are good all-roundplayers; they are all the top players in thecountry.”Team selection was based on performance
at school tournaments, inter-provincialcompetitions, quarterly training camps andmonthly swim tests conducted over the lasttwo years.The process is ongoing and programme to
select the 2016 squad has just commenced.“It’s a very balanced team.KwaZulu-Natal
beatWesternProvince on penalties at the in-ter-provincial tournament, so when theymix into one team they become a lot strong-er. We also have players with nice flair fromEastern Province.”
Rowe’s side qualified for theWorld Cham-pionships after beating Zimbabwe and los-ing to Egypt in play-off matches in March.SA have been drawn in Group C of the
tournament along with Brazil, Italy, Turkeyand Russia.Egypt, the other African side at the tour-
nament, have been drawn in Group A withSpain, Hungary, USA and Kazakhstan.Rowe believes his side received the easier
draw of the two African nations.To qualify for the final 16, his charges will
need to secure enough points to finish in thetop three of the group.Rowe says it’s an achievable but difficult
goal. Should SA finish outside the top four,they will advance to the losers’ section withthe other seven sides who placed last andsecond last in the groups.The squad assembled in Durban for a five-
day training camp at the end of last month.
However, they will leave for the tourna-ment at the end of this month without play-ing any warm-up matches.Rowe believes this will hamper their
chances of reaching the next round.“We play Turkey first, which doesn’t suite
us. It would be better if we played them last,after we’ve had some match practice,” hesays.“At that stage, we wouldn’t have played a
game together. The other teams will havebeen playing warm-up matches in Europe,but we can’t because each player is payingR30 000 to go to the tournament. There isn’tanyone they can play locally, because theyare the best here.”The Fina World Men’s Youth Waterpolo
Championships will take place in Istanbul,Turkey from Saturday 2 to Sunday 10 Au-gust. The SA men’s team will depart on ei-ther Wednesday 30 or Thursday 31 July.

Mocké still on a winning streakMulti-discipline pad-dling superstar JasperMocké has added anoth-er title to his ever grow-ing list of achievements.
The Peninsula CanoeClub member won theWestern Cape Canoe Un-ion (WCCU) K1 (singlecanoe) long-distance riv-er championships onSaturday, beating sever-al other big names andBerg River Canoe Mara-thon contenders to thefinish line.
The race was held onthe 33km section of theBerg River between theHermon and Goudabridges for the 41st timein icy-cold conditions.
A leading bunch ofseven paddlers got awayin the A-batch and con-sisted of Mocké, LanceKing and Peninsula stalwart Graeme Solo-mon, as well as Luke Stowman, Louw andErnest van Riet, and Ivan Kruger.
Mocké, King and Solomon dominated tothe extent that they formed a breakawaygroup within five kilometres of the start.Stowman was in sight of the leaders.
It continued this way down to Zonquas-drift low-level bridge where it was necessaryto portage, with King leading Mocké andSolomon. Stowman made up ground as theleaders jumped out of their K1s and leggedit over the portage area.
The quartet stayed together until the 26kmmark, where Stowman dropped off at a verynarrow section, following an extremely
sharp right-angled turnin the infamous forestarea of the Berg River.
From this point untilthe end, Mocké, Kingand Solomon took turnsin pulling, bringing itdown to the wire for a fi-nal flat-out sprint for theline at the GoudaBridge.
Mocké crossed theline in 2:08:51, King in2:08:53 and Solomon in2:08:54.
Alex Adie, also of Pe-ninsula, easily won thesenior women’s sectionof the event, leadingfrom start to finish.
Starting at the front ofthe B-batch, she pow-ered all the way to thefinish line in an excel-lent 19th position over-all and as the first wom-
an home. Bianca Beavitt made a welcomereturn to river racing and showed her classto finish in 2:32:15, while Robyn Hendersonwas third in 2:36:37.
Stowman won the under-23 division in2:10:40 to stamp his authority on the catego-ry. Peninsula’s Dom Notten finished secondin 2:16:19 to hold-off a charging Ant Lake ofUCT, who was third in 2:45:26.

Hammies continue derby dominanceLIAM MOSES@LiamCPT
Hamiltons stormed to a heavy victoryagainst Villagers in the 139th edition ofSouth Africa oldest club rugby derby inClaremont on Saturday.
The clubs were founded in 1875 and 1876respectively, and clash in one of the Cape’sbiggest rugby matches each year.
As expected, the fixture was physical andintense from the firstwhistlewithboth sideseager to get one over their arch rivals atBrookside.
The Sea Point side has won the last ninederbys– and continued their winning runover the counterparts on Saturday.
Villagers edged Hammies the possessionand territory stakes for most of the firstquarter, but lacked the invention and powerneeded to make any real headway.
They wasted an opportunity to open thescores in the 10th minute, when flyhalf Dan-iel Clarke missed a penalty. The tide beganto turn soon after.
Hammies pace, power, dynamism and di-rectness soon lead them to the opposition 22and, after several minutes of relentless at-
tack, flank Nieuwoudt Gresse crossed overclose to the left touchline in the 20thminute.
Janno van Zyl missed the conversion at-tempt but made up for it soon after.
Van Zyl burst down the right wing in the30th minute and was stopped centimetresfromthe try-line, but flung theball to outsidecentre JandreduPlessis to gather and touch-down.
Van Zyl converted to take Hammies to a12-0 lead.
They resumed their dominancewhen playresumed and were back in the red zone justfive minutes later, creating space for flyhalfMonty Dumond to jog over for the third try.
Van Zyl’s successful conversion elevatedthe score to 19-0.
Hammies scored their fourth try just be-fore half-time, when lock Tian Fick brokethe line, leapt over the last defender’s tackle,tumbled to the ground and popped a pass tosupporting fullback Pierre Cronje, whocrossed untouched.
Villagers showed bags of tenacity to claima healthy share of territory and possession
in the first 10 minutes of the second half, butwere again forced to resort to kicking whenconfronted by the staunch Hammies de-fence.
The visitors fifth try came directly fromone of these kicks in the 11th minute, withDumond finishing off a sublime 40m coun-ter-attack before Van Zyl goaled the conver-sion.
Villagers looked dead and buried but re-fused to give up.
The hosts scored their first points of thegame in the 55th minute, when hooker Scot-ty Pitcher crossed in an overlap on the rightwing.
However, the fight-back started and endedthere as Clarke could not convert and threemore tries were scored against them in theremaining minutes.
Hammies left wing Craig Pheiffer showedabundant pace to beat the cover defence andscore in the 29th minute.
Dumond converted the score, then scoredanother try fiveminutes later – racing to thetry-line after he was put through a gap – and
converted his own try to hand Hammies a40-point lead with six minutes remaining.
Hammies eighth and final try came in the79th minute, when Gresse stepped throughthe exhaustedDirtyWhites defence to touch-down.
Replacement centre Morgan Newmanconverted the try with a drop goal – to savetime – and the final whistle sounded withHammies leading 52-5, but still chasing an-other try.
