Drakenstein se planne om bloekombome in Newton af te kap ontlok gemengde reaksie<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\nInwoners het op ‘n gemeenskapsvergadering op 31 Oktober vir nog ‘n vergadering gevra \u2013 wat verlede Donderdag plaasgevind het \u2013 sodat die groter gemeenskap ook hul insae oor die bome se verwydering en die toekomstige ontwikkeling van die grond kan lewer.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Verlede week se vergadering is deur Aidan Stowman, Newton se wyksraads- lid, en Koos le Roux, die Speaker van die Drakenstein-raad, bygewoon.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Toe die munisipaliteit nie inwoners se vrae kon beantwoord oor watter moontlike ontwikkeling in die toekoms op die grond gaan plaasvind nie, is beslis dat die munisipale stadsbeplanners ‘n studie \u2013 wat ‘n omgewingsimpakstudie insluit \u2013 sal uitvoer om die moontlikheid van toekomstige ontwikkelings te bepaal.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Di\u00e9 planne sal na verwagting in die nabye toekoms aan die inwoners voorgel\u00ea word.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Ek dink ons almal stem vir nou saam dat die bome moet bly,” het Stowman op die vergadering ges\u00ea.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
‘n Inwoner het op haar beurt ges\u00ea as die bome verwyder word, moet die grond vir sportdoeleindes aangewend word.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Newton is ‘n sportgedrewe gemeenskap. Hierdie is ‘n gulde geleentheid om deur middel van sport in die ontwikkeling van ons jeug te bel\u00ea. \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Sport moet dus voorkeur kry bo enige ander ontwikkeling. Hier is klaar niks waarmee ons jongmense hulself kan besig hou nie,” het die inwoner ges\u00ea.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die munisipaliteit het 31 Oktober se vergadering besluit om die bome te verwyder, aan veiligheid toegeskryf. Stowman het toe verwys na ‘n voorval op 7 April toe ‘n veiligheidswag dood is toe ‘n bloekomboom op hom geval het terwyl hy besig was om patrolleerwerk by Diemersfontein te doen.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
David Delaney, die Drakenstein-munisipaliteit se senior bestuurder vir ruimtelike beplanning en omgewingsbestuur, het op 31 Oktober ges\u00ea die grond is vir gemengde gebruik geoormerk. \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Gemengde gebruik beteken dit kan vir behuising of vir sake wees. Dit kan egter net nie nywerheid wees nie. Die grond het dus potensiaal en wat daarmee in die langtermyn gaan gebeur, sal aan openbare deelname onderworpe wees. In die korttermyn het die raad ‘n versoek gekry van die Diemersfontein-eienaar om die bome te verwyder en dit is wat ons graag vandag hier wil bespreek,” het Delaney ges\u00ea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
