Randpark Golf Club
Q: RRA involvement in Klein Jukskei Park
proposal
15 December 2008:
-
Various residents have expressed concern regarding the
Golf Club’s proposals for the park.
-
Members of the RRA committee are meeting with the Golf
Club this week, to determine what has happened with the Club’s proposal/application to
City Parks, to table residents’ concerns and to seek undertakings from the Club that
will alleviate residents’ concerns and fears.
-
The RRA committee is mandated to attend to “security and
other related matters” within the RRA area. The Committee met with the Club management
to understand what its plans were, examine the joint security benefits, and has
disseminated these to the residents via the newsletter. We believe that constructive
engagement with Club management will be the most beneficial route to follow and in the
best interests of residents.
-
The RRA committee will keep residents informed of
developments.
12 February 2009:
-
The RRA Committee is in ongoing discussions with the
Golf Club and has initiated a process of committing all decisions regarding the park to
a Memorandum of Understanding between the RRA and the Golf Club.
-
The intention is to get this signed, and duly registered
if need be, so that use of the park area and respective obligations are clearly defined
for all future generations.

General interest items
Q: What are the rights of motorists at road
blocks?
The following was taken from the Joburg website www.joburg.org.za
Roadblocks: There is ongoing confusion over the rights of
motorists at roadblocks.
In light of this, guidelines are suggested if an attempt is made
to arrest you at a roadblock:
-
A copy of the warrant of arrest must be supplied by the
arresting officer on demand.
-
A copy of the warrant of arrest does not need to be
available immediately, but you cannot be detained while the warrant or a copy thereof
is being fetched from the police station.
-
You have the right to be informed of your constitutional
rights, which include the reasons for your detention and arrest.
-
If you are subjected to any abuse of your human rights,
you will have a claim against the authorities.
-
You must be taken to the place stipulated in the warrant
or a police station as soon as possible after the arrest is made.
-
You are not arrested for failing to pay a traffic
violation but because you failed to appear in court pursuant to a summons.
-
You have no right to see the return of service at the
time of your arrest; this can be obtained later.
-
The magistrate has seen the return of service and issued
the warrant for your arrest on the basis of the information contained in it.
-
In all circumstances where you are unsure of the
procedures being followed, keep notes and records of time, places and specifically the
names of the officials involved.
-
The most important advice is to ensure that you act
immediately when you receive a traffic notice and, when you pay it, ensure that you get
a receipt or keep proof of payment if the payment was made electronically.
All roadblocks have debit card, credit card and cash payment
facilities.
