Building Houses Or Creating Homes: Housing Development Programs © COPYRIGHT By Tiwanna Latrease DeMoss 2012 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED BUILDING HOUSES OR CREATING HOMES: HOUSING DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMS AND QUALITY OF LIFE IN PORT ELIZABETH, SOUTH AFRICA BY Tiwanna Latrease DeMoss ABSTRACT This dissertation examines the impact of government housing projects on the poor in Port Elizabeth, South Africa. The research explores whether the participation and involvement in housing development projects lead to a greater quality of life for the poor and help them with greater access to jobs, quality housing, services, and community. It also addresses how the beneficiaries of housing development projects participated within the projects and analyzes the benefits and drawbacks of housing development programs in meeting the needs of the poor. The research uses theoretical concepts such as poverty, housing, quality of life, and community to contextualize and to explain the situation for the poor and their need for shelter, employment, and services. This dissertation is based on ethnographic research conducted on beneficiary poor populations directly affected by housing development projects in the city of Port Elizabeth in South Africa from October 2005 to June 2006. The development projects used for the research were the Sakhasonke housing subsidy project in Port Elizabeth’s Walmer Township and the township of Wells Estate, a resettlement community. Some of the main findings from the research were: 1) receiving quality housing had a significant impact on the quality of life of the residents and they were pleased with the type of housing they received compared to their previous residence, yet their access to jobs and income was still a main concern; 2) Sakhasonke residents communicated more frequently with project developers and management compared to the people of Wells Estate, which led to the ii Sakhasonke residents having greater understanding of how the project would impact their quality of life; and 3) community and social trust decreased for the people of Wells Estate after they moved to their new homes compared to what they experienced in the their former residences, which leads to further discussion of how new housing can have a significant impact on beneficiaries’ ability to develop a sense of community and a greater quality of life. iii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS There are so many people I would like to acknowledge for helping me complete this research journey. First, I want to thank the members of my dissertation committee, Dr. Dolores Koenig, Dr. Brett Williams and Dr. Neil Roos, for taking the time to read my dissertation as well as giving me over the course of this project such valuable suggestions and comments on my research. Their expertise has helped guide me through this process. Dr. Dolores Koenig, my dissertation chair, has been a supportive mentor to me since I started at American University and has been a constant figure of strength and encouragement in my life. I want to thank the National Security Education Program for providing the funding that allowed me to conduct fieldwork in South Africa from 2005 to 2006. I also want to thank the officials, developers and scholars that I talked with in South Africa for taking the time to meet and talk with me about housing development in the country. I also thank the people of the Urban Service Group in Port Elizabeth, especially Clive Felix, who gave me such invaluable support and assistance during my time in South Africa. Most importantly, I thank the wonderful people of Sakhasonke, Wells Estate and the people of the non-participant group for allowing me into their homes and lives for almost a year. Without their support and willingness to work with me, this research would not have been possible. I give a big thank you to my key informant and her wonderful mother; their kindness and willingness to be the first to work with me was the initial spark to this research. I will always be grateful. There are many friends that have traveled with me during this journey. I thank my dear friends Christine Boyd, Michelle Carnes, Rebecca Frischkorn, Malinda Rhone, Eleanor Makumbe, Ariana Curtis, and Arvenita Washington who have listened to my cries, wiped my tears and gave me such wonderful encouragement when I needed it over the years. Thank you to all my friends, near and far. Your support meant the world to me and helped me get through the iv dark and sleepless nights. I want to express my gratitude to my editor, Mr. Boyd, for taking the time to read through my earlier draft, and I want to also thank Abbe Fessenden for her unyielding support over the years and for giving me the time to work on my research. I am grateful to my wonderful mother, my sisters Veronica, Nina, and Keisha, my brothers Oscar Jr. and Anthony, and the rest of my family. Their support and love meant everything to me as they pushed me to never give up and to always pursue my dreams and goals. I am truly blessed to have such a loving and caring family. I also thank my fiancé Omari Norman, the love of my life. He has been my rock and foundation during this process. He has lifted me up on days when I felt like I could not write anymore. I cannot express how deeply grateful I am to have him in my life. Lastly, I give thanks to my father who passed away in 2008 while I was still working on the dissertation. He was a very supportive and devoted father who believed in my work and all that I could accomplish in life. I hope this work will make him proud. v TABLE OF CONTENTS ABSTRACT………………………………………………………………………………………ii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS……………………………………………………………………..…iv LIST OF TABLES………………………………………………..…………………...................vii LIST OF ILLUSTRATIONS……………………………………………………………………viii LIST OF ABBREVIATIONS………………………………………...…………………………..ix Chapter 1.

Population trends of seabirds breeding in South Africa’s Eastern Cape and the possible influence of anthropogenic and environmental change. Marine Ornithology 37: 159–174. Eleven species of seabird breed in South Africa’s Eastern Cape Province. Numbers of African Penguin Spheniscus demersus and Cape Gannet Morus capensis in the province increased in the 20th century, but penguins decreased in the early 21st century. A recent eastward displacement of Sardine Sardinops sagax off South Africa increased the availability of this food source to gannets but did not benefit penguins, which have a shorter foraging range. Fishing and harbour developments may have influenced the recent decrease of penguins.

  • Palaeontological Impact Assessment: Desktop Study
    PALAEONTOLOGICAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT: DESKTOP STUDY Proposed construction of two filling stations adjacent to the N2, Zones 1 and 2 of the Coega IDZ, Nelson Mandela Bay Municipality, Eastern Cape Province John E. Almond PhD (Cantab.) Natura Viva cc, PO Box 12410 Mill Street, Cape Town 8010, RSA [email protected] April 2010 1. SUMMARY The two proposed filling station developments are located either side of the N2 in Zones 1 and 2 of the Coega IDZ, between St George’s Strand and Motherwell, Nelson Bay Municipality. Both development sites are underlain by limestone-rich shallow marine sediments of the Alexandria Formation (Algoa Group), with intermittent cover of pebbly residual weathering products (the so-called Bluewater Bay Formation). The Alexandria Formation has a high palaeontological sensitivity since it hosts a rich fossil marine biota of Miocene to Pliocene age that is dominated by molluscs and various other invertebrates, together with rare fish and (possibly) other vertebrate remains. Although much of the Alexandria Formation within the Coega IDZ has been altered by weathering and calcretization, seriously reducing its fossil content, the two filling station developments are situated close to an established fossil site (an abandoned limestone quarry) within this formation. Palaeontological mitigation is therefore recommended in both cases. Should thin sandstones and mudrocks of the Sundays River Formation beneath the Algoa Group limestone capping be exposed during deep excavations, these potentially fossil-rich sediments will also require palaeontological mitigation. Mitigation by a qualified palaeontologist should entail (a) the field examination of new excavations, (b) the recording of sedimentological and palaeontological data, (c) the judicious sampling of fossil material and (d) recommendations for any further action required to safeguard fossil heritage.
