I apologise for not updating members earlier. There was little or no progress during the previous Covid-19 2019 year and following into 2020 and the Western Cape Government Department’s ruling of no-evictions during this pandemic does the town no favours.

Dear Premier Winde, Speaker Mnqasela and Mayor Coetzer

The WCBCF is a mandated organisation which acts on behalf of our members, which constitutes of business and property owners in the Overstrand area.

The WCBCF attended the Stakeholders meeting on the 18th of February 2019 at the Overstrand Municipal Auditorium.

Premier Helen Zille gave a presentation about the proposed plans for the Schulhoek area which would be similar to the integrated housing development project on the old Conradie Hospital grounds in Cape Town. The development would include an upmarket housing section which will subsidize the rest of the development, a subsidized rental area, RDP housing area, a retail area with parks and a reserve for the milkwoods. The idea is still conceptual and all the affected communities need to 'buy in' to the idea.
