ATTENTION SHOPPERS: TAXI CONFLICT AT GREENACRES

Greenacres Shopping Centre’s management team is aware of the taxi related incident which took place outside entrance 1 on Tuesday 7 September 2021.

In response to the ongoing conflict between the local Gqeberha Taxi Associations and the E-hailing Taxis, Greenacres has significantly ramped up its security contingent at all entrances. Appropriate legal action will be taken against those who abuse the privilege of free access to private property or endanger the safety of our staff, tenants, or customers.

Additional guards will be placed at all entrances and access control for all transport providers will be implemented at the main access points to the parking areas.

Greenacres management has approached the SAPS for support in diffusing and managing the situation between the parties and is aware that meetings are being held by the MEC of Transport and the relevant stakeholders, in an attempt to resolve the current conflicts.

Greenacres considers the safety of all its staff, tenants and customers a priority and will do everything possible to ensure that the shopping centre remains a secure environment.

Thank you.
Greenacres Centre Management

Last night, 1 September 2021, PE Northern Areas Constituency Leader, Yusuf Cassim, MPL, was joined by NMB MMC for Roads and Transport, DA Cllr Rano Kayser, and DA Ward 32 Cllr Sandra Fillis, in conducting a streetlight oversight inspection in Standford Road.

They were joined by the manager of the main contractor who is responsible for the fixing of streetlights in the Northern Areas cluster.

Sections of roads in a number of communities in the Northern Areas, including Standford Road, are dark and without functional streetlights, due to cable theft.

Thieves steal underground cables and vandalize streetlights. These senseless criminal acts have a dire impact on the community and deprives residents of functional streetlights and a safe environment.

An agreement was reached with the main contractor that the following solutions will be implemented:

1) The contractor will replace the cables on all faulty streetlights.
2) The cables will be stringed together at the top of the streetlights.

These solutions will make it more difficult for the thieves to get to the cables and will be implemented urgently. We will monitor the progress an keep the community updated on the implementation plan.

The DA gets things done. Together we can take NMB forward again

PLANNED WATER SHUTDOWN OF THE CHURCHILL PIPELINE TO REPAIR CRITICAL LEAKS

August 28, 2021

The Municipality would like to inform residents that a 48-hour shutdown of the Churchill pipeline is required in order to perform critical leak repairs.

Preparatory work was done in anticipation of the shutdown in order to shorten its duration. The shutdown will occur on Monday, August 30th, 2021, and water supply is expected to be restored on Wednesday, September 1st, 2021.

Storage reservoirs will be filled, but there is a chance that they will be depleted before the water supply is restored. Therefore, we urge residents to use water only for essential purposes during this period.

The following areas may experience low pressure or water disruptions:

1. Parts of Walmer
2. Walmer Downs
3. Walmer Heights
4. Mangold Park
5. Glen Hurd
6. Newton Park
7. Greenacres
8. Parts of Cotsworld
9. Parts of Schauderville
10. Linkside
11. Mill Park
12. Parts of Central
13. Mount Croix
14. Perridgevale
15. Deal Party
16. North End
17. Sydenham
18. Central
19. Parts of Gelvandale
20. Summerstrand
21. Forrest Hill

The situation will be closely monitored, and water tankers will be made available if reservoir storage levels fall below a certain level.

Water tanker positions will be advertised on the NMBM website and social media pages, and can also be inquired about by calling the Service Delivery Call Centre at 0800 20 5050.

We sincerely apologise for any inconvenience this has caused.

The DA has a vision for service delivery in the Northern Areas and Nelson Mandela Bay
by Cllr Nqaba Bhanga - DA EC Provincial Leader and NMB Mayoral Candidate

Today, 26 August 2021, I took my mayoral campaign to the Northern Areas of Port Elizabeth for the first of many interactions with the people living in this part of our Metro.

I was joined by PE Northern Areas Constituency Leader, Yusuf Cassim, MPL, and Nelson Mandela Bay MMC for Budget and Treasury, DA Cllr Malcolm Figg, in conducting an oversight inspection at the newly reopened Nelson Mandela Bay Customer Care Centre in Cleary Park. We also interacted with staff at the Home Affairs Office and hosted a meet and greet in the Cleary Park Shopping Centre parking area.

At the Home Affairs Office we were informed of massive staff shortages due to the Department of Home Affairs taking a decision to freeze new appointments. This situation is severely hampering services to our people. I will write to the Minister to request intervention and Hon. Cassim will also be writing to the Speaker of the National Assembly, requesting this issue be placed on the agenda of the Portfolio Committee on Home Affairs.

The Customer Care Centre opened its doors to the public on 17 August 2021 after closing down in March 2020 due to the Covid-19 lockdown.

The Centre remained closed for an extended period of time because the previous ANC-led Coalition of Corruption government allowed the lease agreement and the IT contracts to lapse.

The DA and its coalition partners stepped in and as a result of the direct intervention of MMC Figg, the Centre has reopened to provide services to the people of the Northern Areas.

The DA believes that the people of the Northern Areas and Nelson Mandela Bay deserve uninterrupted good governance for the next five years. This is only possible if the DA receives a majority of 51% in the up-and-coming local government elections.

For too long the people of the Northern Areas bore the brunt of the previous ANC-led government’s disdain for them. Under the ANC government a budget was approved that allocated zero capital budget to four wards in the Northern Areas.

The budget recently passed by the DA and its coalition partners is not only focused on service delivery and mitigating the water crisis, but also allocated money to all wards in NMB.

The reopening of the Customer Care Centre is just one step in the DA’s plan to keep on delivering better services to the people of the Northern Areas.

The DA’s service delivery vision for Nelson Mandela Bay is very clear.

We will ensure that qualified people, not connected cadres, are appointed so that roads are repaired, drains are fixed, electricity lines are maintained, parks are kept clean, streetlights are fixed, water leaks are repaired, bucket toilets and illegal dumping are eradicated, and municipal accounts are correct and arrive on time.

Where the DA governs, we get things done. Together we can take Nelson Mandela Bay forward again.
