You have done fantastically well to get get meeting agreed to. I note the DA is now involved, can you share what their proposals are on the matter?

Hi. A quick hi-jack....

 

Why can't we have a Spruit of our own here in P-town? I am thinking that the Moreleta spruit can easily be converted into public space for walkers, cyclists, joggers and muggers...

 

It will make for a nice route all the way down to Buffelsdrift (well almost). And perhaps link it up with Wolwespruit?

 

Was just think out aloud...

We are meeting with them on Wednesday afternoon, we also have a few proposals of our own that we'll share with them and I'll report back on the outcome.

Hopefully, we can create an effective discourse with council on this issue. It then follows that we would have the framework to raise other issues and projects with them.

It would be something awesome indeed. Sadly, I think the willpower to accomplish that, and maintain it in safe and accessible condition, is lacking from the powers-that-be.....

The Spruit(original) is not maintained by the Powers. What's wrong with Pretoors?

The Moreleta Spruit/river runs through a few greenbelts that have been closed off by the council (powers that be). You would need permission to develop (or even just enter) a singletrack in there

another one

 

on facebook " Hi all. Please avoid groenkloof nature reserv. My motherand I have been severely attackedand injuredthere yesterday. Stole cameras. Phones jewelleryCar keys everything. Tried to kill us. Attachedis with knifes."

This makes it the second one since we started the petition, not reported was a father and son hiking in Groenkloof as preparation for a long hike. They were robbed of their entire kit backpacks, sleeping bags, cooking utensils et al. The youngster was very traumatized and this happened about 3 weeks back.

 

We have to have a large turnout at the public meeting on the 10th May and we have to use the opportunity to put council under pressure. Please be there if you can, just your presence will help.
