No to such commercial buildings in our little dorpie. Sewrage a huge problem currently in Melkbos which needs to be address first.Fritz Labuschagne (Melkbosstrand, 2022-08-08)

I don't want melkbosstrand to be ruined any further. Too much traffic and people. Sewerage is already a problem. Building is too big etc etc.Judith Van lear (Cape Town , 2022-08-08)

This development is extravagant, and unfair to the neighbourhood of simple housing. I an area where developing of housing for 2 people in an apartment adjacent to a house is prohibited, due to nuclear laws, surely this development is unthinkable. The effect of this huge development on underground water and the beach will be extreme, as we had learnt from Eden.Albert Maritz (CAPE TOWN, 2022-08-08)

There should be no more development taking place in Melkbos especially if it does not comply with the safety regulations.Sharon Walsh (Cape Town, 2022-08-08)

I’m signing against the development getting the go-ahead until all the necessary concerns mentioned have been adequately addressed and resolved. The sewage issue is a huge problem and needs to be sorted asap. I also feel that nothing more than a double storey structure should be permitted in Beach Road.Janine Burch (Melkbosstrand , 2022-08-08)

I don't want this complex in melkbos. The area where it's supposed to go up has very bad plumbingClaire Reid (Melkbosstrand , 2022-08-08)

I want existing laws to be adhered to, for proper, legal, (environmental and otherwise) procedures to be followed and also for Melkbos to retain its "small, village feeling"Beverley Fraser (Melkbosstrand, 2022-08-08)

I don't want melkbos to become an overly populated area like blaauwberg and surrounds. Also, the sewerage is a major concern for me. The invironmental impact we have is so important.Vicki Bedeman (Johannesburg, 2022-08-08)

The development not in line with the ethos and culture of the town and will put additional pressure on the already failing sewerage and water infrastructure of the townOloff Dreyer (Melkbosstrand , 2022-08-08)

Our little town cannot handle this kind of infrastructure. Nothing caters for it. Except the developer making huge money. Never mind the devastation after.Rene Leach (Melkbosstrand, 2022-08-08)

We do not need another shopping centre in MelkbosTracy Kahn (Cape Town, 2022-08-08)
#270
The shopping area at Birkenhead and in 6th Avenue is more than sufficient for the town.The height limitations on the beachfront of Melkbos should be maintained, and not be allowed to change the character of the area.
Parking is already a challenge on the beachfront, so this will not work
Leon Reinke (Melkbosstrand, 2022-08-08)

Although i am not against development in Melkbos, i am against the level of density planned there and planned for the 1st Ave development.Jakes Redelinghuys (Melkbosstrand , 2022-08-08)

I am very concerned about the sewerage issue. Until that is 100% resolved we can't even think about developing.Haley Baguley (Melkbosstrand, 2022-08-08)

Something must be done to protect Melkbos from problems.Shamayah Sarrucco (Cape Town, 2022-08-08)

It is against koeberg regulation for safety. It does not hold the requirements, theres a sewage problem in that area, parking will not be enough and it will ruin our little townNatacha dickens (Mellbosstrand, 2022-08-08)

This development does not fit in with Melkbos beach front. It’s going to ruin the town as it will trigger overdevelopment. And what about Koeberg power station as well as aiding to the sewage problem we already have.Roger Tipping (Melkbosstrand , 2022-08-08)

My family and I have been Melkbos residents for over 15 years. We have seen a lot of development since we first moved here (MyCiti bus station, Melkbos high, the intersection on the R27 and N7, Atlantic Beach Hotel/ Belon Bar & Restaurant etc.), some of these have improved Melkbos as well as the publicity/ 'tourism' for/in Melkbos. As a Melkbosstrander (and I feel I speak for multiple Melkbosstranders by saying this) there has been enough development and publicity. We love our Melkbossie. We love the country/ weskus serenity that Melkbos typically has out of peak season. Although it is good for the economy, we do not enjoy the vast amounts of 'tourists' during peak season in the recent years (namely Christmas time). We most certainly do not enjoy the mess they leave behind when they leave... Building this block of flats will NOT be good for Melkbos. Besides the reasons already named in the petition, all Melkbossers know that in winter time, the sea levels rise considerably and the waves wash over onto the road almost every year. If there is only parking for 20 residents and the complex houses 30 residents, that means the other 10 residents will have to park their vehicles in the beach parking area across the complex (also a detestable idea). Their vehicles will get ruined. If the sea does rise and the waves hit the houses (which it has before) the parking area could be flooded and the sea water may even damage the building. Please, respect the peace and solitude of Melkbos and respect the decision of its residents. We DO NOT want this development. We DO NOT want to be the next Bloubergstrand. Thank you.Mikayla Edgar (Cape Town, 2022-08-08)

Overcrowding, parking issues, sewerage issues - dont spoil what is left of a clean beach.Dominic Marsburg (Melkbos , 2022-08-08)
#287
This development will further destroy the character of Melkbosstrand. This town does NOT want to look like Tableview or the Strand. Furthermore, evacuation is already a problem (Koeberg), as well as over- burdening of the infrastructure, especially water and sewerage as well as problems with parking etc., this development is not a good idea!Johann Crafford (Melkbosstrand, 2022-08-08)

Buildind too high and do not fit in with the style of the Town.Only resedential , no Shops, too much traffic and noise. Does not fit to the tradiional old part of Melkbos. Will spoil the relaxed atmosphere of old Melkbos.

Of exceeding height restrictions as well as added traffic in our village which is already struggling with the increased traffic.Juanita Kuhlhoff (Melkbosstrand, 2022-08-08)

This is not Miami, it's a small coastal village.Lourens Henning (Melkbosstrand, 2022-08-08)
#314
Melkbosstrand infrastructure cannot accommodate such a development - sewage, parking. Increasing height restrictions is to the detriment of the neighbouring houses. This would be the start of the end of village environment of MelkbosstrandKerry Bethel (Melkbosstrand , 2022-08-08)

I'm signing this partition because I'm part of this wonderful community and my love for the ocean. I'd hate for human ego to ruin the beatiful little town.Tristan Classen (Cape Town, 2022-08-08)
#356
Cct does not take the neighbours in consideration, because they see a greater return in taxes and income out of this development.The concerns of the existing neighbours are therefore of lessor value for Cct. They are therefore ignoring the existing ratepayers complaints as well as the existing building-regulations !!!!!
The developer is only in to make a quick profit and then will seek a other new opportunity!
On a positive way, this makes way for us all to ignore the building-regulations🤔

I'm signing because future developments need to be sensitively approached and its especially important to retain the village feel of Melkbosstrand as well as ensuring there is sufficient infrastructure to support new builds.Paige Kandlin (Cape Town, 2022-08-08)

This development is not suitable for melkbosstrand beach front. Not sure how it's even possible as Koeberg would not allow more developments of this size within in evacuation zoneJohan Vorster (Melkbosstrand , 2022-08-09)

Besides for traffic, safety etc as mentioned above, this is not what 'our dorpie' needs. This monstrosity is going to take away the peaceful holiday vibe melkbos is known for.Maritza Norton (Melkbosstrand, 2022-08-09)
