All residents of Kommetjie are invited to the Annual General Meeting of the Kommetjie Residents and Ratepayer's Association (KRRA) to be held at the Kommetjie Christian Church on Wednesday 4 June, with lots to chat about!

Members of KRRA will report back on a range of issues from the past year, including renovation plans for the boardwalk, Swan Lodge and old post office building updates, disaster risk management, alien clearing, indigenous vegetation planting, environment, security, social fabric, traffic and road safety, baboon and bin management, dog walking, media and more.

Doors at the Kommetie Christian Church (4 Lighthouse Road) open at 6pm for a 6.30 start.

Heritage, building plans and architectural developments and issues form a big part of the planned talks on the evening, but there will be many issues and hopefully resolutions to be heard in general.

Tea and snacks will be served after the meeting. You are invited to attend, and we encourage you and your younger friends and / or children to attend, and to volunteer for the many working groups that comprise KRRA.

Scan the code below to join your street group! See below for the working groups.

Why?

The KRRA has existed for eight decades and is run by volunteers who work on issues from spatial planning, road safety, social fabric, resilience (disaster mitigation), and environmental integrity such as alien clearing, indigenous planting, beach cleanups, and the restoration of our rivers and wetlands. We get walkways fixed and look at better access. We monitor building and development, and put together alerts and updates via newsletter and social media. We deal with issues that benefit you.We would ask for some reciprocation financially (as well as ideas or volunteers) to enable the above work, which sometimes includes serious issues with legal fees attached. If every Kommetjie household donated just R50 a month (less than R2 per day), the KRRA would have a healthy enough budget to tackle almost anything thrown our way.

Contact Patrick Dowling on 084 966-1249 for additional information.

We follow legal procedure with monthly agendas and an AGM where a treasurer’s report is presented and we report back to the community.

We encourage Kom residents to attend the next AGM. You will be notified via email, social media and a banner as you enter Kom. 

Be the difference.
