David Daniels tree uit
IE skielike uittrede van
die Stellenbosch Munisipaliteit se munisipale bestuurder het vandeesweek skokgolwe deur die munisipaliteit én
Mnr. David Daniels, wat sedert
Augustus 2010 dié amp beklee, het

bekend gemaak dat hy hom nie

Daniels wou nie self kommentaar oor sy uittrede lewer nie.

aangestel, maar hy het egter 18
maande later, in Junie 2008, die
Eikestadnuus het op 27 Junie
2008 berig dat daar na bewering
verskille tussen Daniels en die toe
uitvoerende burgemeesterskomitee was. Dit het glo ’n dispuut
tussen die partye veroorsaak.
Dié verskille het glo tot die verbrokkeling van die verhouding
tussen die partye gelei.
Daniels het daarna ’n uittree-

Daar is egter by ’n spesiale
raadsvergadering in Julie 2010
besluit om Daniels wéér as munisipale bestuurder aan te stel.

lees verder dat Daniels nie oor sy

Herrie rondom konsert
K voel hartseer

swartsmeer-veldtog in die
Só het me. Rika Vermeulen, hoof van die plaaslike
vermaaklikheidsmaatskappy Maniac Music,
Dit is ná die herrie wat
ontstaan het rondom die
November verlede jaar in
Stellenbosch vir die pianis
Christa Steyn gehou is.
Gevorderde bors- en lewerkanker is verlede jaar
by Steyn gediagnoseer.
In ’n poging om fondse
vir haar hoë mediese uitgawes in te samel, het Maniac
Music ’n konsert in die
Bloemhof Sentrum van die
Hoër Meisieskool Bloemhof gereël waar sowat 37
kunstenaars verniet opgetree het. Die kunstenaars
het onder andere David
Kramer, Dowwe Dolla, Lizz
Meiring en Valiant Swart

ingesluit. Kaartjies was
Groot ontsteltenis het egter geheers toe Steyn net R6
105 van die winste ontvang
het. Maniac Music het na
bewering twee derdes van
die konsert se opbrengs gevat.
Ná berigte oor die twis
tussen Vermeulen en Steyn
se seun, Douw, is nóg R11
648 aan die Christa Steyn
Ondersteuningsfonds oorbetaal. Twee betalings van
R5 648 en R6 000 elk is verlede week deur Vermeulen
Sy meen die “swartsmeer-veldtog” het druk op
haar geplaas om nog betalings te maak. “Die swartsmeer-veldtog was só suksesvol en het my onder
druk geplaas om, ná die
aanvanklike R6 105, ’n verdere R11 648 aan die Christa Steyn Ondersteuningsfonds te skenk.”
Sy verduidelik dat die organisering van die konsert
sowat R23 000 beloop het.
Koste van die konsert
self, vir uitgawes soos
klank, beligting en tegniese personeel, alleen het sowat R21 000 gekos. “Die
kaartjie-verkope was (ook)
uiters teleurstellend, ten
spyte van volgehoue en intense bemarking van die
konsert,” het sy vandeesweek by navraag aan Eikestadnuus gesê. Sy meen dat
die saak tussen haar en
Douw egter deur “gesprek”
opgelos kon word.
Illana Frantz van DistriksPos berig dat Douw die
week nie veel kommentaar
oor die aangeleentheid
wou lewer nie. “Volgens
my is die saak uitgesorteer.
Die geld is uitbetaal en die
saak is afgehandel,” is al
wat hy wou sê.

Court on 24 February.
Costa was shot and killed during an
alleged botched armed robbery on his
farm, Cloetesdal, outside of Stellenbosch on 18 February 2011.
The three accused, Mfundise Yese
(25), Simankele Shoes Mralaza (28)
and Cedric Vusuzi Mphakathi (20),
were arrested on charges of murder
last year and have been incarcerated
ever since. Theywererefusedbailafter

Mralaza is also on trial for another
charge of murder, as well as possession of an unlicensed gun, in connection with an incident in Nyanga. It
was said in court that he gun had been
traced back to Costa’s murder
through ballistic testing.
The case was postponed last Friday
for Mralaza to confer with his new
lawyer. The three are awaiting a court
date to be set for the Cape High Court.
) Three men awaiting trial on a
charge of illegal gun possession appeared in the Stellenbosch Magistrate’s Court again on Monday.
The three, Zuko Mzola Micke (36),
Mndeni Nzimande (34) and Mpumelelo Reshane (35) – all from Gugulethu
– were arrested on 18 November in
front of Nedbank in Bird Street after
they were followed from the bank by
an investigating officer. A Bantam
utility vehicle was confiscated and
searched, and police found the firearm tucked into an airbag cavity.
The case was postponed to 29 February for further investigation.
Simankele Mralaza (28) and Mfundise Yese (25) leave the Stellenbosch Magistrate’s Court
following a previous hearing.
THE hot spots for crime were:

cause of the fire and summon the police

If you have a fire to report, you can reach
the Stellenbosch Fire Department on its
24-hour emergency number: 021 808 8888.
FTER various claims of arson in
and around Stellenbosch, the Stellenbosch Fire Department has
asked for the community’s cooperation.
“We have had numerous reports of
fires, sometimes 400 or 500 metres from
each other. This implies arson, but there
is no real proof,” said Tasso Steyn, the assistant chief operational manager at the
Stellenbosch Fire Department.
“People also tend to blame children
playing with matches, but many of the
fires start along the footpaths that labourers use between 16:00 and 17:00.
“Whether these fires are ignited on purpose or by accident – for instance, if someone lit a cigarette and did not realise it
was still alight – we ask everyone to be
much more careful.”
He went on to point out that it was very
difficult to prove arson unless eyewitnesses actually saw the culprit in the act
of starting the fire.
Several small fires have been reported
in Devon Valley and Papegaaiberg, and
now also in Franschhoek.
Steyn also urged residents to contact
the fire department and not the police

MUNICIPALITY’S FUNDS REDUCED

been raised after
Municipality’s funding for
housing was recently cut
by R28 million.
The provincial Department of Human Settlements has reduced the municipality’s initial R38 million housing budget to a
mere R10 million because
of a lack of approved housing projects. Municipalities are allocated funding
in terms of the Division of

Mr Basil Davidson, municipal director for Planning, Property and Housing, explained that funding
of R38 million had initially
been earmarked for housing in Stellenbosch. The
municipality, however, is
only allocated these funds
upon the provincial department’s approval of proposed and approved housing projects.
“The primary reason for
this [reallocation of housing funds] is the lack of
projects with the [necessary] approval for environmental, planning and business plans in response to

the funding allocation.”
He added that, with an
average housing development cycle covering four to
five years, the housing
projects now ready for implementation were started
the rapidly changing leadership in the past resulted
in a re-prioritised housing
programme, which in turn
has led to breaks in the development cycle of a few initiatives.

Kylemore will move to the
2012–2013 provincial financial year. Funding for these
projects will be available
from 1 April this year.
“Sewerage capacity for
the Klapmuts project initially limited the project to
only a 100 dwellings,” Davidson said. “With the
MEC’s support, the municipality was granted R5 million (2011–2012) and R7 million (2012–2013) for bulk infrastructure.
“This will result in an increase in sewerage capacity to service 1 000 housing opportunities here, as
well as opening up the way
for increased delivery in
the area in the next year.”
Davidson added that the

Plankenbrug riool pla stééds
DIE rioolprobleem in die Plankenbrug-nywerheidsgebied het onlangs
weens ’n beskadigde rioolpomp weer
sy kop uitgesteek.
Volgens ’n werknemer daar, wat
graag anoniem wou bly, loop die rioolgate sedert verlede week Donderdag
oor. “Ons het dit gerapporteer, maar
nog niks is gedoen nie. Ons moet deur

nie. Die voorwerpe beskadig die pompe en veroorsaak dat rioolgate en
pompstasies oorloop. “’n Belangrike
komponent van die langtermynoplossing is opvoeding- en bewusmakingsaksies onder gebruikers - iets wat
reeds deur die direktoraat onderneem
word. Die installering van ’n meganiese hark wat die materiaal wat die verstoppings veroorsaak outomaties kan
uithaal, word ook ondersoek,” sê hy.
Hy voeg by dat ’n mangat-moniteringsprogram ook gaan word. “Die publiek kan verseker wees dat die oplossing (van die rioolprobleem) baie hoog
op die prioriteitslys van die munisipaliteit is.”
Desmond Newman with his granddaughter
DESMOND (DEKKA) NEWMAN,
born on 28 January 1952 as the fourth
son of Bertie and Dolly Newman, died
on Monday 30 January after a short illness.
He was a family man, everybody’s
brother, motivator and a man of God. He
was passionate about music. His life’s
motto was “It’s better to give than to receive”, and that is how he lived.
He leaves behind his wife Jesmine,
daughters Jessica, Charlene and Desiree, son-in-laws, grandchildren, brothers, sisters, family, friends and the community.
DIE skielike heengaan van Paul Viljoen

in Kaapstad gewerk. Hy is later tot die
sy-balie toegelaat en het as prokureur
saam met Frans van der Merwe ’n praktyk in Calvinia begin, waarna hy ’n

In 1980 het hy hom by Marais en Marais in Stellenbosch aangesluit. Daarna

65-jarige leeftyd afgetree. Hy sal onthou
word vir talle suksesvolle hofsake, maar
ook as ’n individualis wat graag geluister, maar nooit oorhaastige besluite geneem het nie.

THE present council is the result of a collective effort of voters
to reestablish stability in the Stellenbosch Municipality.
The DA, in particular, focused on stability and improved
service delivery in their election campaign in 2011. They inherited an unstable administration, hampered by previous political interference and nepotism, but somehow kept going by a
its few competent directors. The Falcons, sent to Stellenbosch
by presidential command, are still digging away to find evidence of corruption and misconduct in the administration.
However, under its new political leadership, the same administration can also boast a number of achievements. The
municipality received an unqualified audit from the AuditorGeneral – an 80% rating – and through external evaluation
it was named as one of the top four municipalities in South
Africa. As far as the municipality’s liquidity is concerned, Stellenbosch is amongst the top three municipalities in the country. The administration has also been rewarded for the beautification of the town, and is in the running for the award for
the cleanest town in the Western Cape.
Housing remains a huge problem, with an enormous backlog
to be dealt with. A present setback is the cut in funding –
R28 million – by the provincial government because the Stellenbosch Municipality could not submit housing projects for
such funding. However, future projects are already in the pipeline to address this need.
As result of decades of neglect the infrastructure is inadequate, but it is also receiving attention.
In light of the current economic and political stability, the
news of the sudden resignation on Wednesday of the municipal
manager, David Daniels – who has been named as the best
municipal manager in the country by an expert in local administration – came as a rude shock. The loss of his 45 years of
experience in municipal administration will be enormous.
His tenure expires at the end of May, but on Wednesday the
news was all over town that he had resigned with immediate
effect. However, yesterday, an official statement declared that
he was retiring and would not be seeking a second term, and
that he was assisting Council in the appointment of his successor.
Whatever the true state of affairs may be, stability in a town,
subjected to political caprices and racist whims for so long,
is a priority. The gradual restructuring of the administration
into an effective unit will take time and calls for a competent
and experienced administrative leader.
One who should enjoy the full support of political leaders.

dit een van hulle s’n is, maar teen druktyd was daar nog geen kommentaar van hulle af nie. Indien jy ’n openbare

LESERS GEPOLS OOR NUWE SPRINGBOKAFRIGTER
HEYNEKE Meyer het die afgelope week Peter de Villiers as Springbok-afrigter vervang. Die posisie van Bok-breier is een waaroor elke Suid-Afrikaner ’n mening
het. Eikestadnuus het Stellenbossers se menings oor dié nuwe aanstelling gevra. Hier is wat hulle gesê het:
Robin Williams van Ja­

Cithanica Monty van Idasval­

het, sou hulle hom nie vervang

gesê dit is ’n geleentheid vir eerstejaars om vriende te maak.
“Ons wil hulle ook blootstel aan

Ook Louise du Toit, skrywer
van A Philosophical Investigation of Rape, kom lewer ’n insiggewende praatjie oor verkragting.
Sy werp ook lig op hoe vroulike
seksualiteit geobjektiveer word
tot seksuele besitting.
Karin Brynard, wat met haar roman Plaasmoord die bloed behoorlik laat spat, vra vir Chanette Paul, François Bloemhof en
Deborah Steinmair “Waarom
In dié aanbieding word die
genre van misdaadfiksie behoorlik oopgevlek en ondersoek.
Sy gesels ook met drie skrywers oor die toeval dat hulle in
2011 elk ’n eenwoordtitel wat met
bloed begin, op die rakke het.
Kom luister na die stories agter die storie van Malene Breytenbach se Bloedgrond, Douwleen Bredehann se Bloedwater en
Ilse Salzwedel se Bloedsusters.
Feit en fiksie word intiem verweef in Jan van der Merwe se Die

OWAT 70 lede van die nuutgevormde Stellenbosch 360 het verlede
week by Wild Clover Farm byeengekom vir hul eerste ledevergadering.
Stellenbosch 360, die regsentiteit wat
die ou Stellenbosch Toerismeburo einde
verlede jaar vervang het, is daarop gefokus om al die belangrike rolspelers op die
dorp te betrek om Stellenbosch in al sy
fasette, plaaslik sowel as internasionaal
doeltreffender te bemark.
By hul eerste ledevergadering verlede
Donderdag het prof. Andreas van Wyk,
voorsitter van Stellenbosch 360, die drie
prioriteite vir 2012 aan die lede bekend
Dié prioriteite sluit in die ontwikkeling
van ’n nuwe handelsmerk vir die dorp,
die stigting van die splinternuwe toerismeroete, Roete 360, en die insameling van
fondse om hierdie prioriteite te verwesenlik.
Volgens Van Wyk handel Stellenbosch
360 egter oor meer as net toerisme. Dit
behels die samesnoering van kragte tot
voordeel van Stellenbosch.
“Ek wil op julle, as lede van Stellenbosch 360, ’n beroep doen om jul kant te
bring. Dit (Stellenbosch 360) sal slegs
slaag as ons alle Stellenbossers betrokke
kry. Vertel mense daarvan en stel dit aan
hulle bekend,” het hy Donderdag gesê.
Volgens me. Annemarie Ferns, hoof
van Stellenbosch 360, is dit hul doel om
Stellenbosch op die wêreldkaart te plaas
- ’n plek waar die dorp “verdien” om te
wees, het sy gesê.
Sy het bygevoeg dat hoewel daar nou

in die regte rigting beweeg word, groter
betrokkenheid by almal in die dorp nodig
is om vorentoe te beweeg.
“Verlede jaar was die jaar van konsultasie. Vanjaar is die jaar van aktivering.”
Volgens mnr. Ken Forrester, voorsitter
van die Stellenbosch American Express
® Wynroetes, is die tyd ryp vir verandering op Stellenbosch.
Hy meen daar is niks meer besonders
as wanneer die tyd vir ’n idee aangebreek
“Kom ons word die wêreld se beste wynbestemming!” het hy lede by die vergadering aangemoedig.
Sowat 19 nuwe lede van Stellenbosch
360 is ook bekend gestel. Die volgende ledevergadering word Donderdag 23 Februarie gehou.

Conrad Stoltz, Dan Hugo and
Stuart Marais - all from Stellenbosch - took top honours at the

Stoltz won the event over

Hugo (2:21:49) finished less

while Marais (2:32:34) took the
last spot on the winner’s podium.
“I’m very happy to have won
my first race as a married man.

HEERDEN Herman van Maties was
verlede naweek een van net drie
Suid-Afrikaanse swemmers wat vir
vanjaar se Olimpiese Spele in Londen gekwalifiseer het.
Herman het die 1 500m-vryslag by
die Suid-Afrikaanse Uitnodigingsgala in Durban gewen. Sy tyd van 15
minute en 6 sekondes is vyf sekondes
vinniger as die kwalifiserende tyd
vir die Spele. Die enigste ander
swemmers wat kwalifiserende tye
geswem het, was Chad le Clos en Riaan Schoeman.
Herman het ook die 400m-vryslag
gewen. Hy is aangewys as die swemmer van die byeenkoms.
Herman was egter nie die enigste

Trudi Maree het gesorg vir een
van die beste vertonings by die byeenkoms. Sy het Mariane Kriel se

het Kriel, ook ’n Matie, se rekord van
25,95 na 25,82 verbeter.
Kriel het dié rekord reeds in 1992
opgestel. Dit was dus ’n baie spesiale
oomblik vir Maree, wat ook die 50mvlinderslag gewen het.

EUNICE VISAGIE EN ABRIE
Á ’n teleurstellende
2011-seisoen kan die
anders as om honger vir sukses in 2012 te wees nie.
Die Maties kry met die vyfde FNB Varsitybeker-reeks
die geleentheid om hul naam
in ere te herstel nadat hulle as
driemalige kampioene verlede jaar vyfde geëindig het en
die seisoen sonder enige gesogte titel afgesluit het.
Die Maties se eerste wedstryd is Maandag 6 Februarie
teen TUT in die Danie Cravenstadion. TUT het verlede jaar
laaste op die punteleer geëindig, maar volgens Maties se afrigter, Chean Roux, gaan hulle die wedstryd benader asof
hulle teen die beste span in die
“Dit is die eerste wedstryd
en niemand weet wat om te
verwag nie. As ons na die geskiedenis kyk, is hulle nie die
heel beste span nie, maar ons
gaan dit nie so benader nie.”
Die Varsitybeker-reeks is
bekend vir die eksperimentering met reëls en vanjaar is
geen uitsondering nie.
Organiseerders het by die
Internasionale Rugbyraad die
nodige toestemming gekry
om ’n nuwe puntestelsel toe te
Daarvolgens sal ’n doelskop
nou drie punte tel en nie twee
nie. Alle strafdoele en skepdoele sal egter twee punte tel.
’n Verdoelde drie se waarde is
dus nou 8 punte.
“Dit gaan ’n groot invloed
op ’n wedstryd hê. Dit beteken
spanne gaan minder pale toe
skop en vir die agt punte speel.
Daar gaan ’n groter klem op
kantlynskoppe en dryfmaalbewegings wees.”
Ikeys is die verdedigende
kampioene, maar soos Maties
in 2011, het hulle heelwat
staatmakers verloor. Die Tiere sal egter steeds gedug wees.
Pukke is die een span wat
nog heeltyd teleurgestel het,
maar met ’n nuwe afrigter in
Joe Esterhuysen kan die span
van Noordwes dalk vanjaar
die beker oor die Kaapse grense neem.
Die Maties se voorbereiding vir die reeks het goed verloop. Hulle met Saracens
Storm en die Suid-Afrikaanse
Roux het dié wedstryde gebruik om Maties se strukture
in plek te kry asook eerstefase-balbesit te verbeter.
“Die tellings was nie vir ons
belangrik nie. Dat ons gewen
het, is positief vir die span.
Teen die o.20’s het ons baie in
hul kwartgebied gekom en nie
afgerond nie, dus is daar fyn
verstellings om te maak.”
Maandag se voorwedstryd
is tussen Maties o.20 en ’n Matie XV-tal. Dit begin om 17:00.
