Ontsoutingsaanleg by Strandfontein goed op dreef
Kaapstad se ontsoutingsaanleg by Strandfontein het begin produseer. Dit beteken dat seewater behandel word om drinkbaar te word, en word daarna in die stad se waterstelsel gepomp. Sogenaamde bruin water word dan eers behandel voordat dit in die see gepomp word.
‘n Ontsoutingsaanleg by die Waterfront is reeds in produksie en ‘n verdere aanleg by Monwasi baai sal binne twee maande in werking wees.
Dié water gaan ‘n verbruiker R40 per kiloliter kos teenoor die R5 van gewone damwater.
Die feit dat die aanlegte in werking kom terwyl Patricia de Lille nog burgemeester is, sal waarskynlik deur haar gebruik word om ‘n saak uit te maak dat sy ‘n goeie burgemeester is.
Intussen het welkome reën in die moederstad uitgesak.

Die grondgryp chaos duur voort, hierdie keer in Parkwood, Kaapstad, waar besetters gepoog het om ‘n stuk grond te beset.
Polisie en owerhede het tente en strukture verwyder van die grond en rubberkoeëls en klippe is oor en weer “gebruik”.
Die Departement van Menslike Nedersettings het die geweld ten sterkste veroordeel.

Perlemoen-pakhuis in Kaapstad beroof deur manne geklee in polisie uniforms
Vyf mans in polisie-uniform het Dinsdagoggend vroeg ’n perlemoen-pakhuis in Kaapstad beroof.
Perlemoen waarop beslag gelê is, word in dié pakhuis van die departement van landbou, bosbou en visserye gehou.
Lt.kol. Andrè Traut, ’n polisiewoordvoerder, sê die mans het omstreeks 03:00 in ’n dubbelkajuitbakkie by die pakhuis opgedaag. Hulle het die sekerheidswagte van hul vuurwapens en koeëlvaste baadjies beroof.
Die rowers het ’n klomp perlemoen gesteel en gevlug.
“Gelukkig is niemand beseer nie,” het Traut gesê.
Niemand by die departement se visserye-afdeling het Dinsdag enige navrae beantwoord nie.
