Sinful acts on holy groundNICOLE MCCAIN
@nickymccain
A holy site in Bo-Kaap is being plaguedby vagrancy, thefts, drug trades andprostitution.
TheTanaBaruCemetery is in urgent needof a security boost to fight these social ills,says Tana Baru Trust chairperson AadilBassier.“The site is inhabited with vagrants and
unemployed people, who have been thecause of break-ins at our store room, visi-tors’ cars andneighbours’ [homes],” he says.The site has seendrugpeddling andprosti-
tution, Bassier says.Crime at the site has become such a con-
cern that the trust has advised local pupilsnot to use the property as a shortcut afterschool.The trust was established in 1998, with the
aim of putting a stop to the dumping ofrefuse, liquor bottles and human waste onthe site. Following this, the trust was taskedwith transforming the site into a garden ofremembrance and converting a section of itinto an active cemetery.“Unfortunately, because of its size, lack of
manpower and lack of funding, it has beenan uphill battle to maintain it. Today we arestruggling to root out the nefarious activi-ties which take place on the site,” Bassiersays.Ideally, the trust would like to see the en-
tire site surrounded by palisade and electricfencing – no small feat for the 18 000m² prop-erty – which would cost over R500 000.This is made more challenging because
the trusthasno source of income, saysBassi-er.“More frequent and consistent policing of
the site by police, the local neighbourhoodwatch and private security firms will assistbut clearly these come with manpower andfunding limitations,” Bassier says.The trust is also considering installing a
boom at the entrance in Dawes Street or pe-rimeter lighting.“The idealwouldbe tohaveprivate securi-
ty personnel patrolling the perimeter 24/7,”he says.The trust is now calling on council to as-
sist in securing and policing the site.“The City’s concerted effort to clear the
CBD of vagrants and illegal human settle-
ment with its attendant crime and grime, ismerely and unfairly displacing the problemfrom the CBD onto this historic and holysite.”However, there is little the City of Cape
Town can do, says ward councillor DaveBryant.The cemetery ismadeupof 17 erven,many
of which are privately owned by various in-dividuals and organisations. The City onlyowns one of these parcels, Bryant explains.“The site needs maintenance and there
doesn’t seem to be one entity taking respon-sibility. The City can intervene on certainissues, such as dumping, but can’t managethe site,” he says.However, the trust maintains it is the
City’s site that is causing the most crime.The majority of security concerns “stem
largely from the illegal occupation of Cityland on the edge of the quarry adjoining theTana Baru,” Bassier says.“The trust currently has no sources of in-
comeandwe feel strongly that theCityneeds
to come to the party in that its current strate-gy is shortsighted and prejudicial,” he says.Bryant says although some petty crime
does emanate from the informal settlementat the quarry, all 21 houses are monitoredand the residents are on the housingwaitinglist. Any illegal structures are broken downduring regular operations.“There are a number of sources of crime
within Bo-Kaap, including drug dens on pri-vate property and informal settlements onother properties, such as erf 81,” he says.

FINANCE
You and the BudgetWhat does the Budget 2015 mean to the ordinary
South African citizen? Financial journalist
Moeshfieka Botha helps readers to understand
how they will be affected by the Budget.
There were many people who eagerlyawaited this year’s budget speech. Andthere were also many who simply were
not interested in it because they feel that thedecisions made by politicians rarely havemuch impact on the lives of ordinary citi-zens.
They still just do the best they can withwhat they have available. Budget 2015, how-ever, is very important to ordinarySouthAf-rican citizens because it does directly affectour lives. Finance Minister Nhlanhla Ne-ne’s first full National Budget was a toughone.
Fuel levyThe biggest shock to consumers was prob-
ably the raising of the fuel prices by 80.5c/F.This ismade up of an increase in the generalfuel levy by 30.5c/F and the Road AccidentFund levy by 50c/F.
While fuel prices are now at their lowestin many months, consumers might be ableto absorb these increased levies, but fuel pri-ces do fluctuate. Consumers will be feelingthe full brunt of this levy hike when the fuelprice rises again.
Wewill not only be feeling it directlywhenwe fill up, butwe are sure to the see the priceof basic food and necessities rise too.
ElectricityThe other hike which will have a direct
effect on consumers is the “temporary” in-crease in the electricity levy form 3.5c/kWhto 5.5c/kWh. According toNene this was putinto place to assist demand. The additional2c/kWh will be withdrawn when the elec-tricity shortage is over.
Income taxPeople earning more than R181 900 a year
(R15 158 a month) with have their personalincome tax increased by 1%. This raises taxof the average person in this tax bracket, be-low the age of 65 by about R21 a month.
The rates and brackets for transfer dutieson the sale of properties will be adjusted, so
that it provides relief to middle incomehouseholds. Transfer duty on propertiesbelow R750 000 will be eliminated.
Sin taxOther increases include:. The tax on a quart of beer goes up by
15.5c;. A bottle of wine will cost 15c more;. Abottle of sparklingwine goes up by 48c
and a bottle of whisky will cost R3.77 more;. A pack of 20 cigarettes will cost 82c
more.Social grants have been increased:. Old age, war veterans, disability and
care dependency grants will increase byR60 from R1350 to R1410;. Child support grants will increase by 10
to R330;. And foster care grants will increase by
R30 to R860.The number of beneficiaries of social
grants has doubled from 7.7 million recipi-ents.Nene said they would review the pos-sibility of further adjustments to grant val-ues in October.
Disposable incomeThe household debt-to-disposable in-
come ratio currently stands at 78.4%.Consumers who are already cash
strapped and specifically struggling to paytheir debt, are encouraged to tighten theirbelts and put all their resources into be-coming debt-free as soon as possible.
Roger Brown, chief executive of debtcounsellors Credit Matters, says: “This iscrunch time for consumers.
The only way those struggling with debtare going to survive is by decreasing whatthey pay their creditors monthly so thatthey may have more money left to live onand pay for basic necessities.”V How are you tightening your belt? Share yourthoughts on cashsaving initiatives you have introduced or plan to implement in your home. Startingwith the word “Post” SMS to 32516. SMSes cost R1.
Citizens will have to revisit their personal budgets to accommodate for expected increases in fuel and sin tax. This photo is an illustration.PHOTO:MONIQUE DUVAL

CAMPS BAY
Bigger, betterNICOLE MCCAIN
@nickymccain
Cramped conditions and staggered playtimes will become a thing of the past asCamps Bay Preparatory School plans
an expansion.The school, which houses 266 pupils, has
grown into a “three-stream” school, says act-ing principal Linda Murray. This meansthere are three classes of Grade R, 1 and 2.However, it has been a stretch to accom-
modate all the pupils, with the school man-
agement forced to knock down internalwalls and convert the staff room into a class-room, says Murray.“We also have an occupational therapist
and a physiotherapist on site whomwe havehad to accommodate. We had to convert theschool’s old entrance hall into a room for theoccupational therapist,” she says.Should the school build more classrooms,
Grade 3 pupils will also rejoin the prepschool, instead of being based at Camps BayPrimary.However, the school is most in need of
larger playing fields, Murray says, and theclasses have staggered break times so thatthe current playground is not too crowded.An expansion of the school is now being
planned for the land used by the Camps BayBowling Club.This follows a four-year dispute over who
would be able to lease the land from council.Mayor Patricia de Lille recently an-
nounced the land would be made availableto the school, in effect cancelling thebowlingclub’s lease, which was to expire in 2018.Although the school is still looking at op-
tions to share the property with the club,Murray says a rezoning application hasbeen lodged for educational use.This could take up to two years, she says,
but the school is hoping it will be finalisedsooner to allow construction to begin at theend of the year.Until then, the site will be converted into
parking and a playground, Murray says.

CARNIVAL
Ready to floatNICOLE MCCAIN
@nickymccain
In a warehouse in Maitland, a magicalwonderland is waiting to burst onto CapeTown’s streets.Trees twice the size of a man, giant ele-
phants and cascading jellyfish are just someof the hidden gems inside the Cape TownCarnival’s workshop.Set to take place on Saturday 14 March,
months of preparation have gone into creat-ing over a dozen floats that will be paradeddown the Fanwalk in Green Point.The theme for this year’s Carnival, the
fifth annual event, is Elemental – Celebrat-ing Fire, Water, Air and Earth.The dozen floats are the result of collabo-
rative ideas, says Cape Town Carnival crea-tive director Brad Baard, with ideas comingfrom the design team, crew and public.“We take everything and what doesn’t
work falls away, in the end leaving us withsomethingbeautiful,” he says. “Noone thing
that gets built is the product of just one per-son.”With no two floats quite alike, some can
take only a fewweeks to complete while oth-ers take two or three months, Baard ex-plains.“Every bit of detail takes time and it de-
pends on how complex the float is,” he says.A number of materials are used in con-
struction, ranging from the steel frames,wooden sections and cardboard decorationsto foam and mattress – as seen in the trunkof one float in the shape of an elephant.“And it moves!” Baard says. “The ele-
phant trunk unfolds and moves, while itsears flap.”Other props, such as giant jellyfish, are
made from recycledmaterials such as paperand plastic bags.“We focus on developing reusable parts.
We design new things to be versatile and weusewhatwehave inan inventivewayby justadding that little bit of magic,” he says.Safety is a top priority in manufacturing
the floats, Baard says.“This attention to detail is applied to sev-
eral levels of safety, from the constructionthrough to every aspect of the design,” hesays.This sees floats designed to ensure no
property is damaged during the perform-ance and to ensure no harm comes to thepublic or performers.“It’s important that the performers feel
safe. They must be able to grab onto some-thing if they lose their balance,” Baard ex-plains.Although completely built in the ware-
house, each floatmust be broken down intosections to allow it to be transported to thecarnival venue.They are then reassembled on site, some
in only 30 minutes.Visitors will have the freedom of the city
streets from 16:00 on the Green Point FanWalk to enjoy the variety of food, crafts andspecial childrens’ activities on offer.The streets will be closed for final prepa-
rations at 18:00, giving Carnival-goersenough time to find the perfect viewingspot or make their way to one of the manyrestaurants along the Fan Walk before themagic begins at 19:00.An explosion of fireworks at 19:00 will
mark the start of the parade, with over 2000dazzling costumed performers and musi-cians entertaining viewers with magicalfloats and vibrant dance routines.V The carnival will take place on Saturday 14 Marchfrom 16:00 at the Green Point Fan Walk. Entry is free.
Numerous creatures of the deep are represented in this year’s theme,

CBD
Access for allNICOLE MCCAIN
@nickymccain
Long Street is just one of the streets setto become more accessible to peoplewith disabilities.
Council is set to roll out a plan to improveuniversal access at intersections in the citycentre.
Transport for Cape Town, the City’stransport authority, conducted a universalaccess audit of Long Street from Walter Si-sulu Avenue to Buitensingel Street, saysBrett Herron, Mayoral Committee Memberfor Transport.
“The audit concluded that there are somebarriers along this stretch of Long Street,making it difficult for pedestrians, people inwheelchairs or people who are visually im-paired [to negotiate],” he says.
This included vehicles parked on thepavement and the placement of advertisingbooths, plants and street furniture on thesidewalk. The presence of informal tradersalong Long Street also limited universal ac-cess.
A project has now been initiated to im-prove universal access at intersections inthe CBD, including intersections alongLong Street, says Herron.
“The project entails the dropping of kerbsthat provide access to sidewalks, as well asthe widening of sidewalks at intersections.This widening of sidewalks at intersectionswill reduce the crossing distance for pedes-trians across the street and prevent vehi-cles parking and obstructing the pedestriancrossing area,” he says.
A tender will be awarded soon for thisproject.
The widening of sidewalks and the drop-ping of kerbs are also listed as featuresneeding attention, Herron says.
Concerned resident Kamaljit Heer be-
lieves more needs to be done, such as limit-ing furniture on the sidewalk.
“I’m a frequent visitor to Long Street, en-joying many of the bars and night life it hasto offer.With so many cafés and bars placingtables and chairs on the footpath forcing pe-destrians onto the street, I’ve often won-dered why so little space is made availableto wheelchair users and people with mobili-ty issues,” he says.
Garreth Bloor, Mayoral Committee Mem-ber for Tourism, Events and Economic De-velopment, says the City gives permissionto restaurants, coffee shops, delis and fast-food outlets to place tables and chairs onpavements, pedestrian malls and squares.
“The placing of tables and chairs is nota right but permission is granted at the solediscretion of council,” he says.
A permit is only issued if there are no ad-verse comments received from the City de-partments in terms of pedestrian, includingwheelchair pedestrians, and vehicular ac-cess, and from an aesthetic, planning andurban design point of view, explains Bloor.
“Daily patrols are carried out in LongStreet and complaints are attended to,” hesays.
Cape Town City Improvement Districtchief operating officer Tasso Evangelinossays the organisation supports any strate-gies that would be developed by the City (orimproved upon) in terms of universal ac-cess.
“It is vitally important for any centralbusiness district to be easily accessible byall individuals whether they come for busi-ness, education, to visit for leisure purposesor live in the area,” he says.

The Sanlam Cape Town Marathon hasbeen awarded the coveted Silver Labelstatus by the International Association
of Athletics Federations (IAAF) – the firstmarathon on the continent to be awardedthis classification.
According to Wikipedia, Silver Label sta-tus means that at least five nations are to berepresented by runners with times fasterthan the IAAF’s guidelines. Additionally,the race course must be closed to vehiculartraffic, and measured to the Association ofInternational Marathons and Distance Ra-ces (AIMS) standard, with full electronictiming used to generate the results. The racemust be organised in a way that minimizesecological damage to the surrounding areas.A specified number of doping tests must becarried out, and prize-money for the partici-pants should be equal, irrespective of genderor nationality, though additional rewardscanbegiven to runners fromthehostnation.
This year the marathon will be held overthe weekend of 19 and 20 September. Entrieswill open on 1 March and organisers expect20 000 entries.
The marathon has R1.6 million in totalprize money.
“The bar has certainly been raised quitehigh and as we launch this year’s event, theorganisers have set yet another challenge –the IAAF’s Gold Label status for the SanlamCape TownMarathon.We are confident that
this will also be achieved in no time,” saidCarl Roothman, Chief Executive: Retail:Sanlam Investments speaking at a mediabriefing.
A significant milestone has already beenreached towards the achievement of theGold Label status. The Sanlam Cape TownMarathon is one of the first sporting eventsin South Africa to be declared carbon neu-tral.
Additionally, Africa’s largest vitaminsand nutritional supplements brand, VitalHealth Foods, has been appointed develop-mental partner for the Sanlam Cape TownMarathon to help assist with the develop-ment of the sport in South Africa. Technicalpartner Asics, alongwith Sanlam, will spon-sor a trip for two people to take part in the2016 Paris Marathon, as a prized reward fora lucky entrant wanting to experience whatthe essence of a world-class Gold Label sta-tus marathon is.
“The Silver Label status puts the SanlamCape Town Marathon on the race calendarfor the top tier international runners in 2015.Weare excited to be planning a spectator ori-entated event over the Heritage Day week-end,” said Elana Meyer, marathon brandambassador.
Last year’s event in September drew over12 500 athletes, 5 000 more runners than theprevious year. It was won by Kenyan WillyKibor Koitile in a time of 2:10:45.

SPORTThe annual 10 km BigWalk just gets big-
ger and bigger and the 16th edition heldon Sunday was no different.
More than 20 000 people of all ages took tothe streets of Cape Town for the Big Walkwhich came to a close at the Green PointTrack. Walkers were spurred on by enthusi-astic crowds of cheering supporters on a daymarked by sunshine, excitement and cama-raderie.People’s Post is the media partner of the
walk.“We were delighted to see another fantas-
tic turnout to the event this year. This isWil-lowton Group’s fourth Big Walk sponsor-ship and the inaugural event title sponsor-ship for the Sunfoil brand,” said ShoaibMoosa, sales and marketing director of theWillowton Group.There has been a steady increase in num-
bers since the event started 15years agowithmore than 7 560 competitors and it has be-come an annual highlight of Cape Town’ssporting calendar both for those who com-plete the course and those who come alongto support their friends and family mem-
bers.“There is no doubt that it meets a commu-
nityneedand it is obviouswhy ithasbecomeso popular. It is a professionally run eventthat gives active, health-conscious peoplethe chance to combine some hearty exercisewith a fun day out with family and friendsamid beautiful scenery. The atmosphere ofpositive energy and relaxed social interac-tion is clearly attractive to people of allages,” Moosa said.“At the same time, all those takingpart are
helping others less than fortunate thanthemselves because the Red Cross Chil-dren’s Hospital is a major beneficiary of theevent,” Moosa said.Doctor Elias Parker, the walk’s sponsor-
ship manager said: “It has been an absolutehonour and privilege to once again be giventhe opportunity to present to our people thismega-social sporting event. It is indeed a re-flection of the sterling support that the eventhas attracted, that resulted in the City ofCape Town accrediting the Sunfoil 10kmBigWalk as the third biggest social sportingevent on its calendar.”
