Hopefully by the time the tanks are empty, the problem will have been
resolved and water restored. The above is still in the planning stage.
LOT 22, 23, 24 & LA MER UPGRADE PROJECT:
An independent Quantity Surveyor (QS) was appointed by the Homeowners
Association to submit his quantity and cost estimate for the Upgrade of Lot
22, 23, 24 and La Mer, which will take place in 2018, as a control measure.
Three contractors were invited to tender for the upgrade, where after one
withdrew and the tenders from the other two contractors were sent to the
QS. The QS confirmed that CHA Construction submitted the lowest tender,
with the quantity and cost being in line with his estimate, thus he
recommended their appointment. We will be sending the scope of work and
costing to each homeowner in the affected Lots towards the end of the
year.
EXTERIOR OF VILLAS
It has come to our attention that homeowners are still making changes to
the exterior of their villas, without following the correct procedure. This
includes, for example, changing the villa numbers on the outside of the
villa, installing awnings or roller blinds, changing light fittings and more.
Please urgently take note of the following:
Subject to the provisions of the Town Planning Scheme no Member may –
change the colour of the exterior walls of the Unit, nor the colour of the
exterior of the doors and window frames, nor any fixture or fitting (for
example villa numbers) excluding however door and window handles,
locks and knockers;
Ÿ replace any pergolas, blinds, shutters, awnings or ornaments upon the
exterior walls or surfaces of the building concerned, except to renew
such items of the same nature and of similar appearance;
Ÿ make any additions or extensions to the Unit or erect any further
buildings or structures (including awnings) or fences whether of a
temporary or permanent nature;
Ÿ remove any fixtures, fittings, doors, windows nor to demolish any
portion of the exterior of any Unit without the recommendation of the
Town Planning Committee and the approval of the Board of Directors;
Ÿ undertake any planting, landscaping or gardening activities in any Lot,
or make any alterations to any landscaping or vegetation existing when

Only after these 2 levels of approvals have been received by the
Homeowner, can any alterations, additions or maintenance to the villa

formal upgrading/maintenance projects decided upon and managed by the

COMMON PROPERTY PLUG POINTS – GOLF CARTS
It has come to our attention that common property plug points in certain
Lots are being used to charge golf carts. Please note that this is not
allowed and we request that you kindly refrain from using common
property plug points for that purpose.
MEERSIG SWEMBADAREA
Die 3 Gazebo's wat op pale gebou is, is voltooi. Ons is in die proses om
drie, 8-man-hout sitplekstelle te bou, wat op die gazebo's geplaas gaan
word. Die tentdakke is ook in die proses om verkry te word.
Die swembadwater is uitgetap en die betonloopvlak tussen die sirkel en die
Camelot Spa-gebou, is gesloop. Die swembad se ou kantteëls en ander
plaveisel is verwyder en die area is bedek met 'n vlaklaag. Dit sal toelaat
maak vir die installering van die nuwe teëls en “Belau”-houtbedekking
rondom die swembad.
Die oop stoep bo die wind-branderplankarea is met “Derbigon” geseël en
'n vlaklaag is bo-op geplaas om die nuwe stoep se teëls te lê. Die
kroegarea word gebou en fase 1 van die landskapering, word gedoen.
“Poolwise”, die swembakontrakteurs, is besig met die opknapping van die
veselglas aan die binnekant van die swembad, die montering van nuwe
mosaïek teëls, die konstruksie van die kinderspatbord en die installering
van die toestelle, asook die kontrole en versorging van alle bestaande
pompe, filters en pype. Die projek sal teen 29 September 2017 voltooi
word, onderhewig aan die weer.
HOOF LANDGOED INGANG EN HOOF 4-RIGTING STOP
Pogings om die estetika van die hoofingang en pad tot by die 4-rigtingstop
deur middel van landskapering, veranderinge in verfkleur en plasing van
nuwe aapbestand vullisblikke, is aangewend . Elke spoedduik buite die
hoofingang tot by die 4-rigtingstop by die verkoopskantoor, sowel as byna
elke spoedduik op die ringpad, word in die nuwe keisteen-tema verander.
