Public safety in Pinelands is set for a major upgrade as the suburb\u2019s newly approved Community Improvement District (CID) begins to set its plans in motion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With a total of 2 799 \u201cyes\u201d votes (more than the 60% plus 1 vote needed) submitted to the City of Cape Town at the end of November last year, the application for the establishment of the Pinelands CID (PLCID) was approved in Council on Thursday 25 May.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yazied Davids, PLCID\u2019s media officer, says it is now in the process of formally registering the organisation as a non-profit company (NPC) and preparing RFQ (request for quotes) documents for service providers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe team has engaged with other CIDs and will meet with community-based organisations and safety structures based in Pinelands,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to Davids, public safety will be the priority during the initiation process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe have engaged with the City\u2019s metro, traffic and law enforcement departments. We were also briefed on the City\u2019s Police Plan proposal that will be published for public participation.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He added that partnering with the Pinelands Community Policing Forum (CPF) and the stakeholders within this forum will be vital to addressing crime in the area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMeetings have been scheduled to acquire the two law-enforcement officers that will be assigned to Pinelands.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additional meetings have been scheduled for the installation of CCTV cameras, a control room and a safety app for all residents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cVisible policing plays an important role in crime deterrence,\u201d says Davids. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe lack of visible patrols is a concern. We will aim to assign patrollers to hotspots, work with existing security service providers, street committees and neighbourhood watch groups.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But that is not all that the PLCID\u2019s steering committee will be concentrating on in the next few months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At present the steering committee comprises Davids, David Owen, Sandy McGuffog and Aslam Clarke. Paul Rist, who was part of the committee, resigned shortly after the CID\u2019s approval.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

McGuffog said the PLCID has a four-prong delivery focus: public safety, cleaning, greening and social development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cSocial development is especially important as it directly addressed some of the root causes of crime in Pinelands,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Davids added that, going forward, the steering committee would meet with community-based organisations to address environmental challenges, including illegal dumping, littering, damage to trees and park equipment and heritage protection. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

He said the safety and development of the suburb\u2019s parks would be prioritised.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOur social development team will work closely with the City\u2019s Displaced Person\u2019s Unit and NGOs in implementing sustainable programmes,\u201d Davids said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The committee was also in the process of hiring a CID manager and securing premises.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

McGuffog said the CID manager job description was on the body\u2019s website<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cObviously we can\u2019t finalise that until the company is registered, but we are currently accepting applications. The cut-off date for applications will be (Saturday) 15 July.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As for the search for headquarters she said a property was being sought.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAt the moment we\u2019re still getting the non-profit company registered, which has to be done before we can enter into any contracts.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When People\u2019s Post<\/em> last reported on the drive to establish a CID in Pinelands the voting deadline had been extended to Wednesday 30 November 2022<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

READ | Voting deadline for Pinelands CID goes into extra time<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Residents were asked to complete and submit the consent\/objection forms before the end of October last year. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For plans to go ahead at least 60% of residents needed to agree to the formation of a CID. When the clock struck 12 on Monday 31 October, they were still 998 votes short.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Determined to win the outstanding votes, the CID steering committee put together a marketing strategy that included social media and email campaigns, putting up banners in strategic spots and appearances at community events. Volunteer groups advocating for the CID also hit the streets, making door-to-door calls from 17:00 to 18:00.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Davids said the group would like to thank everyone for supporting this initiative \u201cto help make Pinelands safe, clean and green\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cA special thanks to our wonderful group of volunteers who helped mobilise residents through their door-to-door campaign. The support from community organisations and local businesses has been overwhelming and we look forward to working with you. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe are also grateful to the previous Pinelands CID steering committee members who initiated this process years ago<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
