  • (Western Cape High Court, Cape Town) Case No
    Republic of South Africa IN THE HIGH COURT OF SOUTH AFRICA (WESTERN CAPE HIGH COURT, CAPE TOWN) CASE NO: 26078/2010 Before: The Hon. Mr Justice Binns-Ward In the matter between: BERG RIVER MUNICIPALITY Applicant and JACOBUS JOHANNES LIEBENBERG N.O. AND 86 OTHER PARTIES Respondents JUDGMENT DELIVERED: 25 AUGUST 2011 ______________________________________________________________ BINNS-WARD J: [1] The applicant, which is a municipality established in terms of the Local Government: Municipal Structures Act 117 of 1998 (‘the Structures Act’), has applied for eight declaratory orders. If granted, the declarators sought would be to the effect that the ‘rural levies’ imposed by it in respect of properties in its area in the 2001/2 and 2002/3 financial years were lawfully and validly imposed, as were the rates levied by it on rural property within its area in the 2003/4, 2004/5, 2005/6, 2006/7, 2007/8 and 2008/9 financial years. (In terms of the applicable statutory provisions, a municipality’s financial year has, during the entire period concerned, run between 2 1 July in each year and 30 June of the succeeding year.1) The orders are sought because it has been contended by the respondents, who make up a significant number of the owners of rural property within the municipal area, that the aforementioned imposts are invalid. [2] The respondents have declined to make payment of the assessed rural levies and rates and have defended enforcement proceedings instituted against them by the municipality in various magistrates’ courts in the municipal area. Both sides in the disputes have agreed that the current proceedings might afford a convenient means of cutting the Gordian knot; in particular, because they are also agreed that a determination of the alleged invalidity of the imposts is a matter beyond the jurisdiction of a magistrate’s court.

    SERVICE QUALITY IN SPORT TOURISM: THE CASE OF THE BERG RIVER CANOE MARATHON Mini dissertation submitted in partial fulfilment ofthe requirements for The MTECH Degree: Tourism and Hospitality Management in the FACULTY OF BUSINESS at the CAPE PENINSULA UNIVERSlTY OF TECHNOLOGY By: Lisebo Tseane Supervisor: Dr K. Swart Co - Supervisor: Prof S. Bayat Cape Town November 2006 DECLARATION I, Lisebo Tseane, declare that the contents of this study represent my own unaided work and that the study has not previously been submitted for academic examination towards any qualification. Furthermore, it represents my own opinions and not necessarily those ofthe Cape Peninsula University ofTechnology. ~ ......... Date: It/01--10 f Lisebo Tseane Cape Peninsula University ofTechnology ABSTRACT The concept ofservice quality within sport tourism is important and plays a major role in differentiating each sport tourism product from its competitors. The purpose ofthis study was to evaluate the level ofservice quality within South African sport tourism and in the tourism industry in general, by focusing on a specific case study, the Berg River Canoe Marathon. The study discussed the importance of service quality within sport tourism, while the methods and instruments applicable to assess the level of service quality within sport tourism, were also addressed. The survey was conducted across selected viewpoints, which included the starting and the finishing points of the marathon. A total of 100 survey questionnaires were distributed to spectators and participants at the event using purposive sampling, while stratified random sampling was used to determine the viewpoints. The SERVQUAL dimensions were incorporated in the questionnaires as the basis to determine the level of service delivery at the event.

  • Ward 1: Fourth Integrated Development Plan 2017 - 2022
    WARD PLAN: WARD 1: FOURTH INTEGRATED DEVELOPMENT PLAN 2017 - 2022 BERGRIVIER MUNICIPALITY WARD PLAN WARD 3 2017 – 2022 1 | P a g e WARD PLAN: WARD 1: FOURTH INTEGRATED DEVELOPMENT PLAN 2017 - 2022 7.3.1 PURPOSE OF WARD PLANS The Fourth Generation IDP (Chapter 4) has significant updated information on the demographic profile of the Bergrivier municipal area. This information forms the baseline to make informed decisions on the future of Bergrivier and therefore defining the vision. One of the most serious constraints currently in the drafting of an IDP is the lack of detailed information on a ward level. Most of the new information obtained, is only available on a municipal level. The problem is further exacerbated by the fact that ward boundaries are political boundaries and could potentially (and did, in preparation for the 2016 elections) change every 5 years. For these reasons, the baseline information of ward plans will be the baseline information of the relevant local communities and rural areas. This information may at the time of approving the Fourth Generation IDP not be complete and will be updated continuously during the term of the IDP. A survey is currently in the final phase of completion and will enable the municipality to determine the estimated number of people and households in each ward. This will contribute to the development of a more reliable demographic profile for each ward. However, to ensure a comparative analysis, the 2011-statistics (StatsSA) will form the base of an exercise to determine an estimated, projected demographic profile. The study undertaken by the Department of Agriculture in 2016 on households in the rural areas, will also be incorporated into a complete profile.
