Kimberley se bekende Trimpark is besig om “in ‘n gemors en ‘n nes te verander”.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Inwoners, asook diegene betrokke by maatskappye in die omgewing van di\u00e9 oefenpark, s\u00ea dit ontaard in ‘n plek waar laatnagte gekuier, gedrink, gemors, en dwelms gebruik en seks beoefen word.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Boonop maak \u00e1l meer inwoners van ander woonbuurte vuilgoedsakke met huishoudelike rommel in die asblikke langs die park leeg, en tuinafval word daar afgelaai. Di\u00e9 wat daaroor aangespreek is, het ges\u00ea dat hulle deur die parke-afdeling van die Sol Plaatje-munisipaliteit <\/a>aangeraai is om dit te doen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

‘n Inwoner wat teen die park woon, en anoniem wil bly, s\u00ea op sommige aande is tot 17 voertuie langs die park parkeer terwyl di\u00e9 wat daarin aangekom het, “hoer en rumoer”. Wegneemete-houers word neergegooi, ook drankbottels, kondome en spuitnaalde wat waarskynlik vir dwelms gebruik word. Die vermoede bestaan dat dwelmverkope daar plaasvind. \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Park as oefenpark tot stand gebring<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Die park, wat op 31 Oktober 1981 deur die destydse Kimberley-stadsraad geopen is, is as ‘n oefenpark in die voormalige Van Riebeeck-park tot stand gebring. ‘n Draf- of stappaadjie kronkel vir nagenoeg 1,2km deur die park, en oefen-apparate van hout en metaal is by oefenpunte opgerig. By elke oefenpunt was ‘n bord met oefenaanwysings. Bome en gras is volgens ‘n spesifieke ontwerp aangeplant. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Di\u00e9 driehoekige park word deur Dalhamweg, asook Oliver- en Milnerstraat, begrens \u2212 met die een punt wat tot teen die sirkel van die Honoured Dead Memorial strek. Die Ho\u00ebrskool Diamantveld, Kimberley Boys’ High School en die Kimberley Junior School is in die park se onmiddellike omgewing gele\u00eb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Leerlinge aan di\u00e9 skole besoek die park gereeld en dit is nie ongewoon om sportspanne daar te sien oefen nie. Inwoners van ander woonbuurte ry tot daar om te oefen, en ander stap met honde aan leibande. \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dit is egter nie ‘n openbare partytjie-plek nie, nog minder ‘n plek waar voertuie op die gras parkeer word. Met ‘n skolesportbyeenkoms vroe\u00ebr vanjaar het ‘n busbestuurder tot in die park gery, waar die bus vasgesit het. Die gras en ‘n deel van die paadjie is beskadig. So moes inwoners ook al bestuurders van onder meer viertrek-voertuie vermaan om ni\u00e9 tot binne-in die park te ry nie, en dat die sproeiers stukkend gery word. Di\u00e9 vermaning is met aggressie begroet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

‘n Groot deel van die gras is boonop stof gespeel deur sokkerspanne. Die kennisgewingbord wat aandui dat sulke aktiwiteite verbied word, is verbleik en byna onleesbaar weens sonskade. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nie mannekrag, toerusting om park in stand te hou<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Tot redelik onlangs is die park grotendeels deur ‘n tuinier, wat deur die aangrensende inwoners betaal is, in stand gehou. N\u00e1 samesprekings is hy by die munisipaliteit aangestel aangesien die park deel van die munisipaliteit se verantwoordelikheidsgebied is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Toe ons weer sien, is hy weg. Hy is by ander parke aangewend, en toe ons weer hoor, moes hy aftree omdat hy 60 jaar oud geword het.”\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Op ‘n onlangse vergadering het die munisipaliteit glo ges\u00ea dat hy nie die mannekrag of toerusting het om die park in stand te hou nie. Die gras word selde gesny, die besproeiingstelsel is foutief met talle waterlekke, oefenpaadjies is uitgetrap of oorgroei, en rommel word nie verwyder nie. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Soms word ‘n span van die munisipaliteit gestuur en uit onkunde is talle van die nuwe boompies wat aangeplant is, se basse met “bush cutters” afgekap en is dit besig om dood te gaan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Inwoners aanliggend aan die park voel dat hulle moeite doen om die park in stand te probeer hou, en skoon te maak op hul onkoste terwyl ander net daar kom partytjie hou, skade aanrig en rommel strooi. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Die gereelde rommelstrooi en die feit dat die park so agteruitgaan, bedreig ook ons eiendomme se waarde,” s\u00ea ‘n inwoner. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Ek het gesien hoe iets van baie pragtig in ‘n rommelhoop begin verander,” s\u00ea nog ‘n inwoner, en spreek die hoop uit dat die situasie nog ten goede omgekeer kan word.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It has a long-standing history of serving the community with news and information pertinent to the region. The newspaper, distributed in the capital and more than 20 towns, is also read online in other parts of the vast province, and has been an important source of information for residents of the Northern Cape. The publication is geared towards Afrikaans and English-speaking readers, with the content reflecting the cultural diversity of the province. Like the other regional newspapers in South Africa, NoordkaapBulletin has had to adapt to changing media landscapes, including the rise of digital news platforms. However, it remains a significant part of the media landscape in the Northern Cape, helping to keep communities informed and connected.","email":"noordkaapbulletin@novusmedia.co.za","telephone":"+27514047600","legalName":"Novus Media (Pty)
