OD reported back on progress made. Approved IAComMinutes_13 February 2019 2 9.3 Collier Jetty, V&A Waterfront The request from BELCom for IACom members to be co-opted onto BELCom was discussed. The Committee did not believe that it would be appropriate in this particular instance to be co- opted, as it had previously discussed the total demolition at its meeting of 5 December 2018 and its opinion is on record. 9.4 Wupperthal AM and PM provided feedback to the Committee which was noted. Points raised include: The EXCO of HWC met to deal specifically with Wupperthal, and resolved to oversee the process. The CIFA is putting together a team of volunteers to assess and record the residential structures. A primary issue to be resolved is one of communication with the community, however it was noted that the EXCO has met with the ‘crisis committee’ set up by the Church and Community. Agreement has been reached between the Department of Human Settlements, the Church and the Municipality. A primary need is for the erection of temporary structures to house displaced members of the community. A permit has been issued for these structures in terms of s31. PM has met with the Church representatives and clarified the s31 process. AM requested that if anyone is in possession of, or knows of any relevant documentation on Wupperthal that will assist in the restoration/rebuild, to forward this to her. Draft 9.5 Approval of minutes via email The protocol for approval of minutes via email was endorsed by HWC Council. 10. Standing Items 10.1 Site Inspections The Committee has conducted the following site inspections: Proposed Lindani Village Development, Portion 1 of Farm 167, Stellenbosch 10.2 Report back from ExCo, Council and other Committees Nothing to report. 10.3 Discussion of the agenda Noted. 10.4 Potential Site Inspections Proposed Residential Village on Farm Esperant, Erf 4722, Blouvlei, Wellington Approved IAComMinutes_13 February 2019 3 MATTERS TO BE DISCUSSED 11 SECTION 38(2) RESPONSES TO NOTIFICATION OF INTENT TO DEVELOP 11.1 None 12 SECTION 38(1) INTERIM COMMENT 12.1 None 13 SECTION 38(4) RECORD OF DECISION 13.1 Proposed Lindani Village Development, Portion 1 of Farm 167, Stellenbosch: NM HM/CAPE WINELANDS/ STELLENBOSCH/ PORTION 1 FARM 167 Case No: 17050401WD0508M IACom reported back on the site visit undertaken on 6 February 2019. Site visit report prepared by CSn dated 6 February 2019 attached (annexure SI1). DISCUSSION Amongst other things, the following was discussed: CSn read out the site inspection report and its findings. It was noted that the proposed development is essentially an infill development, and that the development would not impact on heritage resources. Draft The site itself is of no particular heritage significance. The sites adjacent to the proposed development are currently under construction. The development is separated from the highly significant, (Grade 1), Idas Valley cultural landscape, and furthermore when viewed from Helshoogte Road, will not be any more visible than existing or new development underway in the area surrounding it. The impact on the cultural landscape is negligible as the Hillside forms a dominant backdrop to the proposed development. The visual absorption capacity is moderate as the scale of the proposed development at the foothill of Hillside does not impact on the view shed from Helshoogte Road with its scenic view as a resource. RECORD OF DECISION: The Committee endorsed the Heritage Impact Assessment (HIA) as having met the requirements of s.38(3) of the National Heritage Resources Act (NHRA)and resolved that the development as tabled in the HIA, (Figures 12 and 13 tabled on pages 23 and 24 of the Draft Report dated October 2017), may proceed with conditions: 1. The site development layout must be substantially in accordance with the drawings tabled and listed in the HIA. 2. A final Landscape Site Development Plan must be submitted to HWC for endorsement prior to any civil works on site. This can be dealt with by HOMS. 3. If any archaeological material or human burials or human remains are exposed or uncovered during the course of development, then work in the immediate area should be stopped and HWC must be informed.

Ms Waseefa Dhansay gave PowerPoint presentation. Dr Stephen Townsend and Mr Johan van Papendorp were present and took part in the discussion. DISCUSSION: The Committee noted the previously approved Sketch Plans and agreed that the submission was in general accordance with the previous approval. ENDORSEMENT: 1. The Committee endorsed the Phase I drawings submitted as being in accordance with previously approved sketch plans, and satisfy the requirement for the tree replacement plan. 2. The Committee recommended that any future phases of this approved development can be dealt with by HOMs. WD Draft 13.3 Proposed Total Demolition of 3 Buildings & Consolidation for the Development of a Four Storey (Lower Ground Parking, 2 Floors & a Floor in the Roof) Erven 31751; Erven 31752; Erven 150019, Rosebank: MA HM/ CAPE TOWN METROPOLITAN/ROSEBANK/ERVEN 31751; ERVEN 31752; ERVEN 150019 Case No: 17111605ZK1122E Record of Decision, Section 38(4) application documents and Final Integrated Heritage Impact Assessment were tabled. Ms Stephanie Barnardt gave PowerPoint presentation. Dr Stephen Townsend, Mr Andre Pentz, Mr Andrew Berman, Mr Sebastian van Greunen, Mr Zane De Decker, Mr Simon Birch, Mr Neil Franks, Ms Danjelle Midgley and Mr William Whitakerwere present and took part in the discussion. DISCUSSION Amongst other things, the following was discussed: Dr Townsend and Mr Franks made representation on behalf of objectors, and Mr Pentz responded on behalf of the applicant. The objectors noted that the scale of the development had been considerably reduced, however there are still concerns in respect of the insufficient articulation of the proposed buildings, and that in its current form, the proposal does not adequately Approved IAComMinutes_13 February 2019 5 respond to the townscape of the area, which has been identified as a heritage resource, and is a proposed Heritage Protection Overlay Zone. The applicant acknowledged that the façade articulation required further work, but due to the Festive Season break, there had not been sufficient time to attend to this The Committee commended the applicant for the steps that had been taken to reduce the impact of the building, and further noted that most of its concerns previously raised had been addressed, and that in principle the scale of the building, its footprint, and envelope, as tabled, is appropriate.

  • Tides and Water Level Working Group
    World- Wide Navigational Warning Service Sub-Committee Cape Town, South Africa 28 Aug – 1 Sep 2017 The 2017 WWNWS-SC Working Group Meeting will be held in Newlands, a suburb of Cape Town, South Africa. Cape Town is home not only to beautiful wine lands, stunning beaches and a multicultural population, but is also home to one of the 7 Natural wonders of the world – Table Mountain. Cape Town is the provincial capital city of the Western Cape. As the seat of the National Parliament it is also the legislative capital of South Africa. Located on the shore of Table Bay, Cape Town was first developed by the Dutch East India Company as a supply station for Dutch ships sailing to East Africa, India, and the Far East. Jan van Riebeeck's arrival on 6 April 1652 established the first permanent European settlement in South Africa. Cape Town quickly outgrew its original purpose as the first European outpost at the Castle of Good Hope, becoming the economic and cultural hub of the Cape Colony. Until the Witwatersrand Gold Rush and the development of Johannesburg, Cape Town was the largest city in South Africa. Newlands is an upmarket suburb of Cape Town, South Africa. It is located at the foot of Table Mountain in the Southern Suburbs of Cape Town, and is the wettest suburb in South Africa due to its high winter rainfall. It is best known for Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens, Newlands Forest, Newlands Cricket Ground and Newlands Stadium, a rugby union and football venue. It is also the original home of Ohlsson's Cape Breweries, which is still located next to the rugby grounds.

  • Newlands Cricket Ground and the Roots of Apartheid in South African Cricket
    15 ANDRE ODENDAAL Cricket and representations of beauty: Newlands Cricket Ground and the roots of apartheid in South African cricket In January 2010, England played South Africa in the traditional New Year’s Test at Newlands in Cape Town. Former England captain Michael Atherton led his story in the London Sunday Times with an ode to the beauty of the stadium: A new year of Test cricket dawns for England at one of the most stunning venues in the world game. Newlands was shimmering on Friday morning under the shadow of Table Mountain, Cape Town’s defi ning feature, as both sets of players prepared for the pivotal Test of the series.1 England captain Andrew Strauss was equally respectful of the venue and throughout the match the media framed the ground as ‘picture perfect’. The Times from Johannesburg, its front page dominated by a colour photograph of Newlands, dubbed it the ‘Field of Dreams’. Even the Canon Chancellor of Blackburn Cathedral, Chris Chivers, joined in the reifi cation of this space. In a thoughtful article in the Cape Times , he mused on how epic battles on the sports fi eld mirror the real-life struggles against fear, failure and pain that every individual is engaged in. Newlands was his starting point: ‘nothing beats a Test match played at Newlands, beneath one of the most spectacular mountains in the world.’ Furthermore, watching a game here provides a perfect setting for under- standing deeper things about life, for ‘aesthetics – as the Ancient Greeks knew only too well – sets the stage for contests which are often of the most epic proportion’.2 Newlands and the mountain that towers over it have been lyricised for over 120 years in this way.
