Public safety remains a key focus in Ward 113, with councillor Sue van der Linde highlighting recent engagements aimed at improving security in parks, addressing crime-related concerns and supporting law enforcement efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Van der Linde said the messages of sympathy and understanding she received following the loss of her husband were deeply appreciated. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Your kindness, understanding and respect in giving me space meant more to me than I can easily put into words,” she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Following her return, Van der Linde attended an MP list panel, describing the experience as valuable and saying she remains hopeful of improving her placement as the party looks ahead to 2029. She also met with her branch to confirm activities planned for the next six weeks.

Joint meeting<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A joint on-site meeting was held at Hampton Park with police, the community policing forum, law enforcement and the parks department to identify practical solutions to improve safety and accessibility at the park. Van der Linde said feedback will be provided directly to residents who raised concerns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She also attended a delegation meeting regarding a new liquor licence application, noting the importance of cooperation between the business, law enforcement and the ward to ensure patrons respect the surrounding community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Van der Linde attended water and sanitation caucus and portfolio meetings, as well as an online water reinstatement update. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

She said it was encouraging to hear that reinstatements have largely been caught up, with the department aiming to be fully up to date by June.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Waves Edge, she met with City officials to assess reeds in the vlei that are shedding seasonal “white fluff”, which has been causing discomfort for residents. A plan is being developed to address the issue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Voter registration and infrastructure concerns<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Over the weekend, Van der Linde joined voter registration campaigns at Marine Circle and in Dunoon ahead of upcoming elections, encouraging residents to register online or contact her for assistance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She also raised concerns about repeated electrical cable theft in Waves Edge, which led to power outages and dangerous exposed live wires.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I will be motivating for the replacement of the fencing along the R27 to help reduce these incidents going forward,” she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Van der Linde said she is looking forward to another busy and productive week and thanked residents for their continued engagement and support.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
