PLETTENBERG BAY NEWS - New Horizons residents’ patience is starting to run thin six months after the conclusion of a land deal, earmarked for development for this Plettenberg Bay community, which they claim has seen no progress.
The last straw came last week when residents were informed at a meeting that land in Ward 4 will now be used as a transit camp to accommodate residents from another community while Bitou Municipality commences with a housing project in Qolweni and Bossiesgif.
“You can’t blame people for getting upset. They have been waiting for 23 years for housing, with next to nothing happening and now they learn that the municipality plans to move residents from another community into New Horizons while they get houses,” said the spokesperson for the New Horizons Concerned Citizens Forum, Claude Terblanche.
