Sportlui van wyd en syd is ontstoke nadat die Stellenbosch-munisipaliteit planne bekendgemaak het om die Van der Stel-terrein (VDS) se bestuur aan \u2019n derde party te oorhandig.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2019n Kennisgewing vir openbare kommentaar is op 30 Januarie in Eikestadnuus<\/i> gepubliseer. Hierin verduidelik die munisipaliteit sy planne om die bestuur van die meer as 85 jaar oue sportkompleks \u2013 wat onder meer twee rugbyvelde, \u2019n sokkerveld, twee krieketvelde, \u2019n hokkieveld, \u2019n swembad en funksielokale insluit \u2013 vir 30 jaar aan die Stellenbosch-sokkerklub te oorhandig. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Volgens die munisipaliteit sal dit die finansi\u00eble uitgawe van di\u00e9 kompleks se bestuur versag en die koffers \u2019n hupstoot gee danksy huur wat ge\u00efn sal word.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Plaaslike sportlui meen egter die plan beteken eenvoudig die \u201cverkoop\u201d van \u2019n gemeenskaplike, openbare fasiliteit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Pieter Lotz, die voorsitter van die Van der Stel-sportklub, s\u00ea sprake van die munisipaliteit se planne doen reeds langer as \u2019n jaar die ronde. Hy meen die gepubliseerde plan is nie in die belang van die gemeenskap of sportlui hier nie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cDie sportklub het meer as 2 000 aktiewe lede wat alles van rugby, krieket tot crossfit<\/span> insluit. N\u00e1 jare word daar ook nou gewerk om weer veerpyltjies terug te bring. Daar is daagliks atlete wat die sportkompleks gebruik,\u201d verduidelik Lotz.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Onder die gebruikers van die Stellenbosch-veld is die o.20-Springbokspan, plaaslike skole en twee kerke.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Lotz s\u00ea die beplande eksklusiwiteit wat die Stellenbosch-sokkerklub oor die geriewe sal h\u00ea, is kommerwekkend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cWat gebeur n\u00e1 die 30 jaar? Indien dit ek was, hoekom sou ek dan \u2019n gerief wou oorhandig waarin ek miljoene rande bel\u00ea het? Eintlik is die huurkontrak \u2019n verkoopkontrak wat ons betref.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Die Stellenbosch-sokkerklub beoog om R395 miljoen oor vyf tot 10 jaar in die kompleks te bel\u00ea. Die munisipaliteit meen, luidens die kennisgewing, dit sal help om die sportkompleks \u2019n fasiliteit van w\u00eareldgehalte te maak. Sporttoerisme sal aangewakker word, wat internasionale sportlui en beleggers sal lok, s\u00ea die munisipaliteit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Internasionale toernooie in die VDS-fasiliteit is egter nie ongewoon nie. In November is twee tennis-toernooie hier deur die Internasionale Tennisfederasie aangebied.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Die munisipaliteit bieg egter dit het nie die \u201cvereiste operasionele infrastruktuur om die standaard van diens te lewer nie\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n By navraag het Stuart Grobbelaar, \u2019n munisipale woordvoerder, ges\u00ea hierdie is die tweede openbaredeelnameproses n\u00e1 vroe\u00ebre gesprekke met belanghebbendes en \u2019n tenderproses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cDie doel van hierdie voorstel is om die kompleks tot \u2019n w\u00eareldklas-sportfasiliteit te ontwikkel, wat nasionale en internasionale sportgeleenthede lok, terwyl dit steeds toeganklik bly vir alle inwoners van die munisipaliteit,\u201d s\u00ea hy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Lotz s\u00ea die klub sou natuurlik \u2019n algemene belegging in die fasiliteit wou sien, maar meen die kostes van die belegging soos dit nou staan, is te hoog vir die gemeenskap. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Hy s\u00ea al die sportsoorte wat op die VDS-sportterrein beoefen word, speel in die premierligas van hul onderskeie sporte.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Johan Breedt, ondervoorsitter van die klub, s\u00ea die geskiedenis en erfenis van die sportkompleks in die Eikestad moenie uit die oog verloor word nie. Hoe meer hy van die uiteindelike planne te hore kom, hoe meer bekommerd raak hy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cDaar is sprake om later woonstelle vir atlete te bou \u2013 om uiteindelik die hele gedeelte van die dorp om die sportfasiliteite te laat draai. Ons kan nie toelaat dat die ryk geskiedenis tot \u2019n einde kom nie. Hier het al talle Springbok-atlete oor hierdie velde gehardloop. Hoe kan die publiek kommentaar lewer indien ons nie toegang het tot die omvattende planne vir die fasiliteit nie?\u201d wil hy weet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Stellenbosch-sokkerklub het by navraag ges\u00ea hy sal nie in die stadium verdere kommentaar lewer nie en respekteer die openbare deelname proses. \u2019n Vergadering tussen die VDS-klubbestuur en die burgemeester, Jeremy Fasser, sou gister (Woensdag) geskied om die planne verder te bespreek. Intussen het belanghebbendes tot volgende Donderdag (20 Februarie) om hul insae te lewer. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Sportlui van wyd en syd is ontstoke nadat die
