Inwoners het uit hul eie sak plante begin koop en die moue opgerol om dit te plant, maar die onlangse padwerke op die paaie van St. Helenabaai het egter al hul harde werk tot niet gemaak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Die St. Helenabaai-inwoner Ursula Peter het dit onder die aandag van <span>Weslander<\/span> gebring dat al die nuwe plante by die ingang van die hawe deur padwerkers verwyder en vernietig is, en ges\u00ea dit maak haar baie ongelukkig. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cHulle kon ten minste die plante bewaar het sodat dit weer oorgeplant kon word,\u201d s\u00ea Peter. Peter meen meer moeite kon gedoen word en dit lyk nou erger as voorheen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Aletta Kleynhans deel dieselfde sentimente en s\u00ea sy het die afgelope paar jaar self ingespring om die hawe skoon te maak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cDit is bitter hartseer dat nie na die natuur omgesien word nie. Die plante was duur en \u2019n mens het hard gewerk, en kyk hoe lyk dit nou weer.\u201d Kleynhans noem ook dat skoonmaakdienste in die hawe nie so paraat is soos dit was nie. Sy bekommer haar oor die toekoms van die hawe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Volgens Jandr\u00e9 Bakker, \u2019n woordvoerder van die departement van infrastruktuur, is \u2019n omvattende ondersoek ingestel en op geen van die foto\u2019s van die terrein voordat werk begin het, kon hulle enige bewyse vind van plante wat as gevolg van die bouproses beskadig is nie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cDie bewering dat die kontrakteur plante by die ingang na die St. Helenabaai-hawe verwyder en vernietig het, word nog ondersoek \u2013 ons het nog nie die ondersoek afgehandel nie en ons verklaring in die eerste paragraaf is op voorlopige aanduidings gebaseer. Dit kan egter beklemtoon word dat dit in geen stadium die bedoeling van die padwerkers was om enige plante of bome te verwyder wat nie direk in die pad van die posisie van die nuwe pad is nie of nie \u2019n veiligheidsrisiko vir die reisende publiek inhou nie.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bakker voeg by indien die bewering waarna verwys word, egter waar is, sal die kontrakteur met die gegriefde inwoners skakel en die plante vervang.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>St. Helenabaai-inwoners baklei al \u2019n paar jaar vir die instandhouding van die St. Helenabaai-hawe \u2013 tot die punt waar inwoners self moes ingryp om die hawe te verfraai en van binne en buite meer aanskoulik te maak.
