DIEGENE, wat bakkievragte vol sand onwettig by die Astonbaai-strand verwyder, se dae is getel \u2013 voortaan is \u2019n boete oortreders se voorland.<\/p>\n
Regulasies, wat di\u00e9 \u2018sanddiewe\u2019 verhoed om sand van strande te verwyder, sal binnekort deur die Kouga-munisipaliteit ingestel word.<\/p>\n
Hierna staar \u2019n boete oortreders in die gesig.<\/p>\n
Volgens \u2019n ontstelde inwoner, wat anoniem wil bly, is dit \u2019n jarelange probleem.<\/p>\n
\u201cReuse sandduine reeds weggery. Plaaslike konstruksie- en plaveiselmaatskappye ry daag-liks bakkievragte seesand hier weg \u2013 die duine word behoorlik weggedra.<\/p>\n
\u201cHulle ry tot by die duine \u2013 sodat hulle nie maklik van die pad gesien kan word nie \u2013 en laai dan die een vrag na die ander.<\/p>\n
\u201cDie sand, wat hulle nie \u2019n sent kos nie, word dan vir \u2019n aardige bedrag aan niksvermoedende inwoners verkoop.\u201d<\/p>\n
Dani\u00ebl Benson, portefeuljeraadslid vir die Departement van Gemeenskapsdienste, s\u00ea: \u201cDie Kouga-munisipaliteit is tans besig om die nodige bywette rakende omgewingsbestuur saam te stel.<\/p>\n
\u201cSodra die bywette in plek is, sal boetes uitgereik word.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs \u2019n tussentydse maatre\u00ebl, beoog ons om \u2019n kennisgewingbord op die sit wat die verwydering van sand verbied. Die munisipaliteit sal oortreders \u2019n boete kan gee, omdat hulle \u2019n amptelike kennisgewing verontagsaam het \u2013 daarvoor maak die bywette reeds voorsiening.\u201d<\/p>\n
Volgens Benson sal die dorpswette vir stewige boetes voorsiening maak om voornemende oortreders af te skrik en in gerig te bring.<\/p>\n
Die oprigting van kameras word ook oorweeg.<\/p>\n
\u201cDie munisipaliteit het tans nie die nodige mannekrag om alle openbare areas voltyds te monitor nie,\u201d s\u00ea hy. \u201cOns het \u2019n goeie verhouding met die Astonbaai- en Paradysstrand- buurtwag wat help om \u2019n ogie oor dinge te hou. Ons vra ook dat lede van die publiek sulke oortredings by die munisipaliteit aanmeld.\u201d<\/p>\n
Daar is wel uitsonderings wat in ag geneem moet word: die probleemsand op die parkeerterrein kan amptelik deur die munisipaliteit verwyder en aangewend word, soos vir die l\u00ea van pypleidings en in die begraafplaas.<\/p>\n
Benson s\u00ea die negatiewe impak wat algemene wegdra van sand op die omgewing se kusgebied het, is aansienlik.<\/p>\n
\u201cDuine is van groot belang: dit beskerm ons strande en kuslyn teen erosie, storms en vloede. Volgens die Wet op Nasionale Omgewingsbestuur moet daar \u2019n impakstudie gedoen word indien meer as vyf kubieke meter sand, rots of klip binne 100m van die hoogwatermerk verwyder word.\u201d<\/p>\n
Inwoners kan oortredings aanmeld by 042 200 2200, of deur die Link-toep wat by Google Play of the App Store afgelaai kan word. Foto\u2019s kan saam met die klagte ingedien word.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
