Capacity in the City is limited redistribution but instead is used in an inefficient, exclusive and on well-located public land close to infrastructure, services, and or non-existent and planned projects take many years to move unsustainable manner. How is this possible? Who is managing our opportunities. from feasibility to bricks in the ground. land and what is blocking its release? How can we change this and what is possible if we do? Despite this, most of the remaining well-located public land No wonder, in Cape Town, so little affordable housing has been owned by the City, Province, and National Government in Cape built in well-located areas like the inner city and surrounds since Hundreds of thousands of families in Cape Town are struggling Town continues to be captured by a wealthy minority, lies empty, the end of apartheid. It is time to review how the City of Cape to access land and decent affordable housing. The Constitution is or is underused given its potential.

Groundwater a Source of Water for the Deep South
GROUNDWATER A SOURCE OF WATER FOR THE DEEP SOUTH Roger Parsons 1, John Coetzee 2 and Chris Wise 2 1Parsons and Associates Specialist Groundwater Consultants, PO Box 2606 Somerset West 7129. Tel (021) 855-2480. E-mail: [email protected] 2Jeffares and Green (Pty) Ltd ABSTRACT Adequate supply of water to the southern suburbs of Cape Town, including Fish Hoek, Simon’s Town and Noordhoek, is increasingly coming under threat as these suburbs expand and their demand for water increases. Upgrading and expanding existing water reticulation pipelines through Muizenberg to these areas is possible, but will be expensive and disruptive. Alternative sources of water were hence considered, including the construction of a dam at Brooklands above Simon’s Town and development of local groundwater resources. This paper describes the potential for developing groundwater resources to increase a secure supply of water to these areas. INTRODUCTION The area south of Clovelly – including Fish Hoek, Noordhoek, Simon’s Town, Scarborough and Kommetjie – currently obtains water from water resources above Simon’s Town (Lewis-Gay Dam, Kleinplaas Dam, and Rawson Dam) and via a pipeline running through Muizenberg and Kalk Bay. A dam site at Brooklands was identified some 30 years ago as a potential future source of water to augment existing supplies (Figure 1). In response to a land claim – parts of which would be flooded should the dam be built - the City of Cape Town investigated whether the Brooklands Dam site was still required. To be able to make an informed decision regarding the reservation of the land for construction of the Brooklands Dam at some point in the future, the City of Cape Town commissioned a study to investigate water resource and supply options for the area colloquially referred to as the Deep South. -
CPT City of Cape Town SDBIP 2014 2015
2014 – 2015 SERVICE DELIVERY AND BUDGET IMPLEMENTATION PLAN The Service Delivery and Budget Implementation Plan for the City of Cape Town 2014/2015 MESSAGE FROM THE EXECUTIVE MAYOR We have undertaken an ambitious programme of governance in the city. That programme has been to turn the five pillars into a development programme until 2016. Those pillars are: the opportunity city; the safe city; the caring city; the inclusive city; and the well-run city. I think we have achieved a great deal. The IDP maps out our goals, plans and ambitions for the remainder of this term, which is already well under way. I believe that we have achieved something quite unique in local government in South Africa and what national legislation actually intended: the complete alignment of democratic will into a programme of government. But having put in place this great plan, we need to know that it is working. We need to see the outcomes that we are delivering to the people, for their own benefit and for our own progress reports. These outcomes must be assessed by a monitoring and evaluation framework that can help flag our priority areas and provide baselines and targets against which we measure our performance. That means having a scorecard that we can monitor, a scorecard that becomes the living document of delivery. We do operate with certain realities. The Auditor- General requires strict monitoring of things that are measurable in order to determine compliance and sound government. We support those principles but in as much as we satisfy the Auditor General, we must satisfy our own purposes too. -
I Cataloguing Practices from Creation To
Cataloguing practices from creation to use: A study of Cape Town Metropolitan Public Libraries in Western Cape Province, South Africa by Madireng Jane Monyela Student number: 215081797 Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Information Studies) in the School of Social Sciences, College of Humanities, University of KwaZulu-Natal, Pietermaritzburg, South Africa Supervisor: Prof. Stephen Mutula ---------------------------------------------- June, 2019 i Abstract Cataloguing is the process of creating metadata representing information sources such as books, sound recordings, digital video disks (DVDs), journals and other materials found in a library or group of libraries. This process requires the use of standardised cataloguing tools to achieve the bibliographic description, authority control, subject analysis and assignment of classification notation to generate a library catalogue. The well-generated library catalogue serves as an index of a collection of information sources found in libraries that enables the library users to discover which information sources are available and where they are in the library. Such a catalogue should provide information such as the creators’ names, titles, subject terms, standard number, publication area, physical description and notes that describe those information sources to facilitate easy information retrieval. This study sought to investigate cataloguing practices from creation to use in Cape Town Metropolitan public libraries in South Africa with the aim -
