FROM PAGE 1 Johan Snyman, manager for District 2 of the roads and stormwater department of the city, said at the meeting he agrees that it is a big mess. He said his department has searched “in

every single place, but it seems that no building plans were submitted or approved”. “It is difficult to find people who were involved – some are overseas or dead. I don’t know how to find out if there may be a hidden plan somewhere. Even if someone remembers of building plans, we still need physical evidence,” he said. It was decided that letters will be send to Boetie Brink, the landowner, as well as Dennis Smit, town clerk at the time of the development, and Sharon du Gois, a planner and resident of D’Urbanville. Du Gois did a lot of research years ago on the status of Mosselbank River Road and reasons for the many accidents and traffic issues. TygerBurger phone Du Gois, but she said her research never focused on the entrances. “There might be something about the entrances in it, but I will have to go through my documentation about the issue,” she said. Marcel Hoogebeen, the developer, said

he is not surprised the city messed up. “It was quite a discussion those days, they must have building plans.” Hoogebeen said the development was handed over to the municipality after completion, and whether the structures are on municipal land or not, they are municipal responsibility anyway. “The city cannot wake up now in 2013 and

find that the entrances were built over the boundaries as an excuse not to perform. “Now nobody wants to take responsibility and now they want to hide behind their files,” he said. Hoogebeen said he was not involved with the building inspectors at that level, and that the building manager, had in the meantime emigrated to Australia.
