I'm signing because I am a concerned resident and parent of Durbanville.

Better facilities can be provided for the people at an appropriate area, and there should be procedures to follow to raise a settlement-- Nobody should be allowed to put up a shelter wherever they like on public ór private grounds, no matter whát your station in life is.

Sanet Trollip (Durbanville, 2022-07-19)

It’s unhygienic and unsafe

Elizabeth de Beer (Cape Town, 2022-07-19)

#2814

No ablusion facilities.
Crime increases.
Littering every where.

Suzanne Loubser (Durbanville, 2022-07-20)

#2817

It is a health and safety hazard and it is multiplying daily.
Affecting property values negatively.
People need safe and clean housing

Rika Liebenberg (Durbanville, 2022-07-20)

#2818

Something has to be done about our rate payers problems with squatting outside our premises as well.

Georgina Schoeman (Cape Towm, 2022-07-20)

#2820

Surely these people will want a place to settle where there is proper infrastructure and hygiene.

Rene Janse Van Rensburg (Cape Town, 2022-07-20)

#2827

I'm a durbanville resident for decades and a tax payer. This issue detracts from our community safety and property values.

John Dunlop (Cape town, 2022-07-20)

#2828

It is a health and safety issue having informal tents going up in town.

Penny Walker (Durbanville, 2022-07-20)

#2831

This is an informal and illegal settlement right in the centre where thousands of rate and tax payers call home. It influences the health and safety of of not only those living in the settlement but also those living in formal residences surrounding this area.

Louw Hanekom (Cpt, 2022-07-20)

#2836

We cannot allow our beautiful area, city, even province, to be spoilt like this. Surely there is another solution to house these people

Elzabe Gibson (Cape Town, 2022-07-20)

#2837

A solution needs to be found for the homeless in Durbanville. Crime is in the rise and our properties are being devalued.

Michelle McConnell (Durbanville, 2022-07-20)

#2839

Don’t like the tents in Durbanville

Martelle Russouw (Cape Town, 2022-07-20)

#2842

stop the tents

Charl Naude (Bellville, 2022-07-21)

#2847

Enough, is enough. Remove the tents.

Marianne Lambourne (Durbanville, Cape Town., 2022-07-21)

#2849

Its disgusting health hazard. Government mustbuild or buy more shelters. Homelessness is really a problem

Charmaine Birch Bergsma (Cape Town, 2022-07-21)

#2851

I believe there is a place for everyone, but the current location is not working as it causes health and safety risk to the great community that contributes to taxes and the upkeep and growth of the town and people of it, as well as job creation. The relocation of these tented communities is for the greater good of everyone.

Wayne Enslin (Durbanville, 2022-07-21)

#2857

I do not want tents all over out beautiful neighbourhood. Government musb provide official shelter intead

Janet Anderson (Durbaville, 2022-07-21)

#2858

This is an absolute disgrace.

Denver Kirsten (Cape Town, 2022-07-22)

#2861

This is right across our schools and I feel the children are Not safe.
There are shelters for them, and this tent town is not the answer.
People should also stop giving them Money and food but rather those 'vouchers' to go to the shelters where they get food and a place to stay.

ANNALISE Jooste (DURBANVILLE, 2022-07-22)

#2863

The first tent should have been removed and now there are 17, how did this happen

Johan Huisamen (Cape town, 2022-07-22)

#2864

I’m signing because as the letter attached, the amount of tents are growing at a rapid speed.

Shani Campbell (Pinehurst, Durbanville, 2022-07-22)

#2869

Dis nie hulle plek nie. Ons betaal Tates en Taxes, beslis nie om vir hulle verbly te gee nie

Alma Gouws (Durbanville, 2022-07-22)

#2870

I am signing this as it negatively influences the image of our area.

Heidi Nolan (Durbanville, 2022-07-22)

#2873

We want the tents removed

Marisa Wilsdorf (Durbanville, 2022-07-22)

#2878

I absolutely support this petition as a rate paying citizen of Durbanville!

Wayne Burns (Durbanville, 2022-07-23)

#2880

Thisbis absolutely unacceptable as this poses numerous threata to the area, not least a health risk.

Mark Smith (Cape Town, 2022-07-23)

#2885

Public health hazard.

Alet Engelbrecht (Durbanville, 2022-07-23)

#2891

There is other options for the people to not live on the street. It is a danger to our children at the primary school

Michelle Thomas (Durbanville, 2022-07-24)

#2892

This is unhygienic and the people living there must be properly located elsewhere with proper toilet and irrigation facilities.

Melanie Duncan (Malpas, 2022-07-24)

#2894

It's a health risk for those staying in the tents, and permanent residents close-by (where do they wash or go to the toilet?) Also security risk as there is no record of who is staying in the tents.

Alwanda Kalis (Durbanville, 2022-07-24)

#2895

I'm living in Church Street 17, Durbanville. Very unsafe for widows!!!

Magdaleen Fourie (Durbanville, Cape Town, 2022-07-24)

#2897

I am concerned about the health aspect of the inhabitants and the safety of residents. We have break ins on a daily basis and are starting to fear for our lives.

Roselle Louw (Durbanville, 2022-07-24)

#2900

It is unsafe for pedestrians and runners who pass by this area. The residents of this tenting area are aggressive and a nuisance to ratepayers who shop nearby.

It is an eyesore and it is illegal. It must be removed immediately.

Mark Parris (Durbanville, 2022-07-25)

#2902

All over the world, poverty sadly is a fact of life, and South Aftica is no different. We accept that an accomodation must be made to house the poor, but this can not be at the expense of civilised society which upholds the values of orderly and civilised communities, having due regard for the importance of hygiene, and orderly residential communities. The emergence of slum
communities in respectable established areas will inevitably degrade the towns and villages in which they establish themselves.

Richard Best (Cape Town, 2022-07-25)

#2904

I agree

Monique Hartshorne (Cape Town, 2022-07-25)

#2908

I am a resident in Durbanville for over 30 years and this is unacceptable.

Cheryl Karstel (Cape, 2022-07-25)

#2909

It’s an eyesore and it’s growing rapidly. Something needs to be done about it.

Cheryl Flynn (Cape Town, 2022-07-25)

#2911

Tent town must go!

Sharon Hanekom (Bellville/durbanville, 2022-07-25)

#2915

I’m against informal tent villages

Odette Maytham (Durbanville, 2022-07-25)

#2919

We don't want Durbanville to become a scwatter camp,there must be other places where government can provide for them.

Carol Best (Cape Town, 2022-07-25)

#2920

To remove squatters from our parks

Izelle Garven (Kraaifontein, 2022-07-25)

#2922

Its unacceptable.

Walter Smith (Capetown, 2022-07-26)

#2923

Crime has picked up dramatically since the tents went up. They are noisy at night plus with the swearing. It looks terrible and dirty.

Karina Visagie (Cape Town, 2022-07-26)

#2925

The tents need to go ! It looks like an absolute mess ! And the community keeps growing , more tents are being pitched and no one is doing anything about it.

Thys Dreyer (Durbanville , cape Town, 2022-07-26)

#2926

The situation will only grow until it is completely in manageable

Dale Pheiffer (Cape Town, 2022-07-26)

#2929

We pay alot of money to have a clean town this is a sore eye and devalues our town.

Brian Robberts (Durbanville, 2022-07-26)

#2932

I would like to see the tents removed from our beautiful village

Belinda Benadie (Durbanville, 2022-07-26)

#2934

The informal settlements are a huge problem for our safety. It is also un-higienic.

Malinda Rousseau (Durbanville, 2022-07-26)

#2935

We need to protect our community.

Uli du Toit (Durbanville, 2022-07-26)

#2938

This raised concern for the future of our tax paying citizens who are exposed to more and more theft, begging car guards harrasing women at night and breaking and entering into our suburbs

Gerhard Steenkamp (Durbanville, 2022-07-27)

#2940

It's illegal
Looks terrible
No services and unhealthy

Liza Classen (Durbanville, 2022-07-27)

#2944

Concern over tents erected in Durbanville

Carol Phillips (Cape Town, 2022-07-27)

#2946

To remove the tented sqatters

Karen De Jager (Durbanville, 2022-07-27)

#2950

These squatters have no proper ablution facilities, or running water. This informal settlement poses many health risks. We cannot allow informal settlements to develop right across the primary school. Entering our once beautiful Durbanville is a sight for sore eyes now as it looks ghastly.

Bianca Nel (Cape Town, 2022-07-27)

#2951

This situation has spiralled out of hand and we are seriously getting worried about the crime and the health safety factor

Madre Myburgh (Durbanville, 2022-07-27)

#2953

I feel that it is most unfair that it took people many years to be able to put down a deposit to afford a home here. Also still servicing huge bonds and paying hefty rates and then be surrounded by unplanned so called homes / shacks / tents with no proper facilities absolutely unacceptable to say the least

Dolley Ferguson (Cape Town, 2022-07-27)

#2959

I’m signing because I still own a house in Valmary Park and wish to see my area being maintained with law and order and to be subject to progression, not regression. Important factor too is the safety of the people living in my neighborhood, as taxpayers should receive.

Jeanne-Mari Van Biljon (Mildura, 2022-07-29)

#2961

This is an eyesore as well as putting our kids in harms way as well as not fair to rate payers

Nikki Malan (Cape town, 2022-07-29)

#2968

I’m signing because I support this petition

Naska Bester (Durbanville, 2022-07-31)

#2969

This a major health and safety hazard, numerous organisations offered to help them, but the refuse as there are rules they have to follow.

Meghan Du Plessis (Durbanville, 2022-07-31)

#2974

I love to walk and woman are being attacked on their own.

Astrid Raath (Durbanville, 2022-07-31)

#2975

This is totally unacceptable

Coreen Beukes (Durbanville, 2022-08-01)

#2979

I object to informal settlement that is developing across from Durbanville Primary. People need to be rehoused somewhere else.

Gerda Starke (Cape Town, 2022-08-01)

#2982

It's right across the road from my son's school....and getting bigger by the day!

Tammy Van Zyl (Durbanville, 2022-08-01)

#2983

I agree with what Richard Downing is concerned about and feel strongly about the same issue. Toilets and litter and noise and drugs are one thing, but the growth will only bring filth, disease and power struggles.

Susan Cavanagh (Cape Town, 2022-08-01)

#2985

Its literally disgusting , totally unhealthy and an eyesore for the beautiful town of Durbanville. Our properties and businesses are being affected.

Cheryl Cowley (Durbanville, 2022-08-01)

#2987

I am signing because I am not feeling safe anymore in Durbanville and leading to the municipality yo find a place for these residents. Please move them away from Durbanville.

Lindokuhle Happiness Simelane (Durbanville, 2022-08-02)

#2991

It is causing health and safety matter!

Loelie Stone (Durbanville, 2022-08-02)

#2995

As part of the Durbanville community it is an absolute eye sore to our city.

It is a big problem for property owners around the park.

Shawn Basson (Durbanville, 2022-08-03)
