4. IMPORTANT MESSAGES FROM THE MANAGEMENT
TEAM
a. Zone Champion Meetings.
Members of the community are welcome to attend
the Zone Champion meetings once a month that take
place on the date as indicated below. The next Zone
Champion meeting will take place on the 10th
September 2019 at 482 Joseph Bosman Street.
b. Controllers/Radio calls:
All controllers who are on duty during the day and
night please ensure sure that you update the incident
report when you are on duty. If you are not able to do
it please ask one of the other controllers to do it for
you.
c. From the camera team.
We have done a lot of work on the Silver place High
site in order to expand our system.
i. Added extra control box to accommodate more
antennas.
ii. Moved the NVR from Build it to the high site and
to reduce links connected to the NVR.
iii. Added UPS (Uninterruptable Power Supply) to
improve camera network availability and stability
during load shedding as well as power failures.
Cameras operational.
i. 3x cameras at Onida/Fakkel Silverton.
4
ii. 3 x cameras in Pretoria Road opposite FNB and
Nando’s Silverton.
iii. 2 x cameras Hartley/De Bruyn Weavind Park.
Cameras not operational.
i. 3 x cameras corner Pretoria/Van Wyk Street
Silverton due to upgrades to Kentucky Fried
Chicken at Kit Kat.
Cameras working most of the time but with issues
i. 5 x Cameras Corner Moreleta/Dykor. (We are of
the opinion that there is a lot of new interference
on our network links).
Meeting with Tshwane Safety and security MEC
We held a meeting with Karen Meyer the MMC for
safety and security Tshwane. All of the Neighbourhood
watch CPA’s discussed the possibility to link all
cameras together in one joint operating centre (JOC).
A building was identified for such a purpose. More
meetings have been scheduled, and we hope not only
join into a Joint Operating Centre, but be part of
Tshwane fibre optic network.
5. MUNICIPAL FEEDBACK
No new feedback
5 6. CPF SECTOR 4 FEEDBACK Members of the community can download this app on their mobile phones from the Play Store (Tshwane Safety App) 7. BUSINESS WATCH Any business in Silverton that belongs to the Silverton Business Watch (SBW) can advertise their business in the Silverton Newsletter. Advertisements in jpg format can be forwarded to Thea Swarts at: theaswarts@mtnloaded.co.za 8. ADMINISTRATION & PROJECTS No new projects are in progress 9. PATROLS, TOP HOTSPOTS & TRENDS Once again we want to thank the handful of patrollers for their patrols that they do for the Silverton and Weavind Park community. As we all know the “Petty Crime” such as stealing gate motors, dustbins, garden tools and manhole covers etc.
6
Your visibility during patrols during the day and at night can be a
deterrent for the criminals.
An urgent request is extended to all patrollers to use magnetic
board signs, wearing their reflective jackets. Also keep a pen and
paper ready during your patrol.
Silverton CPA is in urgent need of more patrollers to ease the
burden of the few patrollers we currently have.
Zone champions are once again requested to make contact with
residents in their zones to canvas for people interested in joining
the patrol group.
Training will be given by Eddie Ras.
We request the residents of Silverton and Weavind Park to be our
eyes and ears, with regard to suspicious activities in our areas.
Keeping your hand radios on throughout the day can alert
patrollers of any illegal activities.
We are facing an increase in criminal activities within our area. By
patrolling regularly, we can express ourselves as vigilant residents
which can assist SAPS Silverton and ourselves to combat crime.

12. ZONE FEEDBACK
a. Zone 2
There are several substations and electrical boxes
that are damaged and the doors are open, posing a
safety risk to the community. These issues have
been escalated, but some have been outstanding
for more than year.
b. Zone 3 and 4
There are several streets in our area where work
was done by City of Tshwane, but the paving has
not been repaired.
The concrete blocks of path ways are broken, holes
are not properly filled. This poses a serious safety
risk to our community. Schuch Street and the
Corner James and President Streets.
Some have been outstanding for more than a year.
9
c. Zone 4
We are currently experiencing issues with trucks
making use of the Fakkel Street route. There are
insufficient warning signs for truck drivers to make
use of alternative routes.
On numerous occasions, owners of properties on
these roads were the victims of accidents, caused
by these trucks as they cannot brake or stop in time.
Several trucks have jack-knifed on these roads.
This matter is being addressed at CPF level and
TMPD is aware of the urgency of a permanent
solution.
d. Zone 3, 4, 5, 6
We are currently experiencing an immense amount
of vagrants, illegally occupying our parks and
properties. There are no sanitary facilities and it
has been found that these vagrants are responsible
for drug dealing, increase of break-ins. Smarag
Street, President Street, Voortrekker park (Jasmyn
Avenue) and Eendracht Park (Alfa Street).
These issues have been escalated to SAPS and
TMPD, but not resolved to date.
10
e. Zone 4
Van Wyk Street and - Graniet Street, Bridge across
Moreleta Spruit connecting Silverton to Meyerspark.
There were numerous incidents of crime (eg. House
robberies, armed robberies, cable theft, attempted
murder/rape).
This is an easy get-away for criminals. The bridge is
being used for quick access in and out of the area
mentioned. Vagrants are also living underneath the
bridge, or hiding there in the long grass.
Persons (including school children) using the bridge
are being assaulted on the bridge in broad daylight
for their cell phones, the situation gets worse at
night.
Both the SAPS and TMPD are aware of this issue.
Not resolved yet.11
f. Zone 7
i. Pitts Avenue:
The water pipes are causing continuous
problems in the area. The councillor in this area
has escalated the matter, but a permanent
solution is required.
ii. Frans Odendaal Street
Vagrants are occupying the open piece of land
in Frans Odendaal Street, starting fires and
causing a safety hazard for the residents. Bear
in mind that there are nursery schools and
crèches in the immediate area.
