  • An Initial Archaeological Assessment of Bloubergstrand
    AN INITIAL ARCHAEOLOGICAL ASSESSMENT OF BLOUBERGSTRAND (FOR STRUCTURE PLAN PURPOSES ONLY) Prepared for Steyn Larsen and Partners December 1992 Prepared by Archaeology Contracts Office Department of Archaeology University of Cape Town Rondebosch 7700 Phone (021) 650 2357 Fax (021) 650 2352 1. INTRODUCTION The purpose of this report has been to identify areas of archaeological sensitivity in an area of Bloubergstrand as part of a local structure plan being compiled by Steyn, Larsen and Partners, Town and Regional Planners on behalf of the Western Cape Regional Services Council. The area of land which is examined is presented in Figure 1. Our brief specifically requested that we not undertake any detailed site identification. The conclusions reached are the result of an in loco inspection of the area and reference to observations compiled by members of the Archaeological Field Club1 during a visit to the area in 1978. While these records are useful they are not comprehensive and inaccuracies may be present. 2. BACKGROUND Human occupation of the coast and exploitation of marine resources was practised for many thousands of years before the colonisation of southern Africa by Europeans. This practise continued for some time after colonisation as well. Archaeological sites along the coast are often identified by the scatters of marine shells (middens) which accumulated at various places, sometimes in caves and rockshelters, but very often out in the open. Other food remains such as bones from a variety of faunas will often accompany the shells showing that the early inhabitants utilised the full range of resources of the coastal zone.

  • 1 Additional Analysis on SAPS Resourcing for Khayelitsha
    1 Additional analysis on SAPS resourcing for Khayelitsha Commission Jean Redpath 29 January 2014 1. I have perused a document labelled A3.39.1 purports to show the “granted” SAPS Resource Allocation Guides (RAGS) for 2009-2011 in respect of personnel, vehicles and computers, for the police stations of Camps Bay, Durbanville, Grassy Park, Kensington, Mitchells Plain, Muizenberg, Nyanga, Philippi and Sea Point . For 2012 the document provides data on personnel only for the same police stations. 2. I am informed that RAGS are determined by SAPS at National Level and are broadly based on population figures and crime rates. I am also informed that provincial commissioners frequently make their own resource allocations, which may be different from RAGS, based on their own information or perceptions. 3. I have perused General Tshabalala’s Task Team report which details the allocations of vehicles and personnel to the three police stations of Harare, Khayelitsha and Lingelethu West in 2012. It is unclear whether these are RAGS figures or actual figures. I have combined these figures with the RAGS figures in the document labelled A3.39.1 in the tables below. 4. I have perused documents annexed to a letter from Major General Jephta dated 13 Mary 2013 (Jephta’s letter). The first annexed document purports to show the total population in each police station for all police stations in the Western Cape (SAPS estimates). 5. Because the borders of Census enumerator areas do not coincide exactly with the borders of policing areas there may be slight discrepancies between different estimates of population size in policing areas.

Introduction The author has been appointed by K2013204008 (Pty) Ltd, the owner of Erven 391 and 392 Fresnaye, to make application for the total demolition of these two semi-detached houses. Since the building, which contains fabric dating back to c1890, is older than 60 years, a permit is required from Heritage Western Cape in terms of Section 34(1) of the National Heritage Resources Act (25 of 1999). It is proposed to redevelop the site and utilise the development opportunities offered by its strategic location and its General Business GB5 zoning, with a floor factor of 4.0 and permissible height of 25m.
