This is unacceptable the city already can't cope with traffic, water, electricity and sewerageThis is just for some greedy person to make more money

This development will significantly impact our town’s DNA. I do not believe that it will add value to the already over crowded beachfront and place additional pressure on the already struggling and over captivity services like sewerage and water system.Barend Van Niekerk (Melkbosstrand, 2022-08-07)

Melkbosstrand is already big enough and if these structures proceed, it will have a negative impact on our town, more than a positive!!Penny Louw (Melkbosstrand, 2022-08-07)

To keep the beach front as authentic to Melkbos as it is now. We don't need another high rise building on that site. It is a BIG NO!!Marinda Benade (Melkbosstrand , 2022-08-07)

Melkbos cannot handle such a building infrastructure on the beach road. We are already struggling with sewage spills every weekend Parking is absolutely impossible already. It’s unappealing look also does not match our beautiful little town.Michelle Labuschagne (Cape Town, 2022-08-07)

No to building this Monstrosity on our Beach front. I do not agree to this building being built.Jackie Dicks (Melkbosstrand Cape Town , 2022-08-07)

I own my house in 10th Ave, and definitely do not want an eyesore of a building in our street.Pieter Opperman (Melkbosstrand, 2022-08-07)

I objected officially to this development. The objections and subsequent appeals from residents and their representatives were solid with excellent motivation and thorough, sound reasoning; however they were not taken seriously. The objections and appeals process seems to be to "tick a box" and proceed regardless of opposition. My hope that CoCT has the community interest at heart has been shown to be misplaced. Developers should be ashamed of themselves. This development could have been made to fit the Melkbos character and limitations, but developers and CoCT have chosen to ultimately ignore the community. I hope this petition effort will have an impact since the official objection and appeals process did not.Susan van Wyk (Cape Town , 2022-08-07)

The area is already way too busy in summer. In adequate parking, traffic problems. Reduce number of units and only residential purposes.June Cliff (Cape Town, Melkbostrand , 2022-08-07)
#31
We are allowing too many people in this area, where is the nuclear regulator in all of this. There is already not enough escape routes should there be a nuclear emergency.Jacky Steyn (Melkbosstrand, Cape Town, 2022-08-07)
#36
This development will set president for more development to follow. That tranform melkbosstrand into another seapoint and i dont think mbs beachfront could handle that. By all mean develop but not what they proposing at the moment. To little Parking and going over the height restriction. With that development as it there it will cripple melkbos beach area and it will be lost for ever.Morne Van der merwe (Melkbosstrand, 2022-08-07)
#38
Melkbosstrand will lose its character with this development. Not enough parking space, infrastructure already overburdered, evacuation in case of emergency a problem and will open the floodgates for other developers.Sharon Crafford (Melkbosstrand, 2022-08-07)

This has not been thought out. The negatives far out way the positives and the greed of the developersJustin Goodman (Melkbosstrand, 2022-08-07)

I object.The town's roads are already under duress due to increased volumes from newly built high school, upgraded shopping center and Melkbosch village.
11th Avenue/Otto Du Plessis is already a death trap that council does not want to address. 6th Avenue morning and afternoon congestion further exasperates frustrations of in an already heavily congested town.
Frequent sewage spillages at the bottom of 11th Avenue due to already overloaded infrastructure.
Richard Frankson (Melkbosstrand , 2022-08-07)

I have been living in Melkbos for the last 39 years so I basically grew up here, and I'm gat vol to see rich arse holes destroying our once beautiful little quiet little town, beach front starting to look like Strand, the increasing traffic is already ridiculous, what about the nuclear zoning laws, Melkbosstrand is just growing out of control.Shawn Viljoen (Cape Town, 2022-08-07)

Love our village, if this development is allowed, there will certainly be infrastructure issues, sewage, parking, traffic etc. and future development will have no regard for regulations as boundaries keep being pushed.Shaun Fourie (Melkbosstrand , 2022-08-07)

This is outrages and there should not be high buildings on the seafront . What about the higher volume of people in the Koeberg area that are supposed to be restricted .People in the other areas in Melkbos are not allowed to add to there properties because off high volumes of people.

The design is too imposing for the beachfront of the town. It will set a precedent for other similar developments.The sewer system doesn’t work as it is.
The structure is too high.

I visit the areaI am aware of how my neighbourhood has lost its village appeal from a heritage, density, and tourist appeal perspective.
We also have water supply issues via infrastructure that is totally inadequate.
As a psychologist, I am so aware that we need to keep some areas low density with a peaceful, slow paced for our psychological well-being.

I’m signing because I agree ur “Village Feel” will be affected (we disagree to become the next Bloubergstrand). It’s too big a building looking down on all the other houses surrounding it which is out of character for our town.Emily Salzwedel (Melkbosstrand , 2022-08-07)
