Volgens die provinsiale departement van menslike nedersettings is kennis gegee aan \u2019n begunstigde van die Highbury-behuisingsprojek dat haar \u201cgratis en gesubsidieerde eenheid\u201d ontruim moet word omdat dit onwettig verkoop is. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dit is die begin van \u2019n wetlike proses met 14 dae kans vir die verweerder om te reageer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Gerugte doen al geruime tyd die ronde oor moontlike onwettige verkope van die sogenaamde Breaking New Ground (BNG)-huise wat deel uitmaak van die Highbury-behuisingprojek.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Di\u00e9 projek met verskeie fases sluit 265 BNG-huise op die grond aangrensend van Nooiensfonteinweg en die Stellenbosch-hoofverkeersweg in. Die woongebied, wat in Desember 2019 voltooi is, staan nou as Riverside Gardens bekend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Tertuis Simmers, provinsiale minister van infrastruktuur, het in Maart vanjaar, vergesel deur die wyksraadslid Ebrahim Sawant, \u2019n ter plaatse ondersoek gaan instel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
N\u00e1 sy onaangekondigde besoek op 17 Maart aan die woonbuurt het Simmers ges\u00ea drie van die huise waar hy aangeklop het, was onwettig verkoop en het nuwe inwoners gehad. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cNie een van die oorspronklike begunstigdes het vooraf die departement ingelig van hul voornemens, of soos wat die wet bepaal, die departement die eerste opsie gebied om die eiendom terug te neem nie,\u201d het Simmers ges\u00ea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ingevolge die Behuisingswet mag die begunstigde aan wie die eiendom toegeken is, dit nie binne die eerste agt jaar verkoop of op enige ander wyse verhandel nie, tensy die eiendom eerstens aan die betrokke provinsiale departement aangebied is. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Simmers het verlede week in \u2019n TV-onderhoud melding gemaak van \u2019n agent en oordragprokureur wat betrek word by onwettige transaksies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Op navraag oor moontlike strafregtelike vervolging, het Muneera Allie, woordvoerder van die provinsiale departement van menslike nedersettings, ges\u00ea \u201cverdere ondersoeke na die beweerde sindikaat wat in die (betrokke) gemeenskap doenig is, gaan voort.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Allie s\u00ea die departement kan nie in hierdie stadium bevestig of enige ander uitsettingsbevele beteken is nie. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cDit sal afhang van die omstandighede in elke geval. Waar bevind word dat goedgekeurde begunstigdes die bepalings van die koopkontrak tussen hulself en die departement en die konstruksiemaatskappy verbreek het, sal die departement die nodige stappe neem.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In \u2019n aanlyn advertensie in Maart vanjaar is \u2019n tweeslaapkamerhuis in Riverside Gardens vir R499 000 geadverteer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Een (wettige) plaaslike inwoner met wie TygerBurger<\/em> gesels het, beweer 69 BNG-huise is reeds onregmatig verkoop, asook sowat 30 van die 100 huise wat aan milit\u00eare veterane in die buurt toegeken is. Die huise vir veterane is \u2019n aparte deel van die behuisingsprojek en nie deel van die 264 BNG-huise nie. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Die inwoner s\u00ea mense is telkemale gewaarsku dat die verkope onwettig is. \u201cNou sit die mense sonder titelaktes vir die huise, wat hulle \u2013 sommiges deur sogenaamde \u2018eiendomsagente\u2019 \u2013 gekoop het,\u201d s\u00ea hy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Sawant het by navraag ges\u00ea dat hy saam met die res van die Riverside-gemeenskap Simmers se aksie teen die onwettige verkope van BNG-huise \u201cheelhartig ondersteun\u201d. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Sawant s\u00ea al die oorspronklike huiseienaars is behoorlik ingelig oor die voorwaardes wat daarmee gepaardgaan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cDie gevolg is dat hulle uitgebuit word deur agente en sogenaamde gemeenskapsleiers en hul huise vir \u2019n appel en \u2019n ei verkoop. Die bietjie geld wat hulle kry, hou slegs \u2019n paar maande, dan sit hulle sonder \u2019n huis.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n Sawant s\u00ea diegene wat betrokke was by die onwettige transaksies sal nie weer vir staatsgesubsidieerde behuising in aanmerking kom nie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cEk hoop mense besef dat hulle hulself en hul kinders verder in armoede dompel.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Simmers s\u00ea daar is tans 568\u2009000 mense op die behuisingswaglys in die Wes-Kaap geregistreer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cOns kan daarom nie sulke onregmatige gedrag ongestraf laat nie. Ons hoop die departement se optrede sal diegene ontmoedig wat soortgelyke transaksies oorweeg. Ek doen \u2019n beroep op al ons burgers om nie slagoffers te word van hierdie kitsrykdom-skemas tot nadeel van ons regerings-infrastruktuur en gemeenskappe nie,\u201d s\u00ea Simmers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Volgens die provinsiale departement van menslike nedersettings is kennis gegee aan \u2019n begunstigde van die Highbury-behuisingsprojek dat
