SICID Manager Ralph van der Brock (Geocentric) and members from the City of Cape Town

SICID Manager, Ralph van der Brock moved quickly to open negotiations with the City of Cape Town to plan the deployment of green public litter bins in the area. Ralph and his team identified around 20 critical locations for these bins.

This week, Mr Bull and his team from Solid Waste Management in the City of Cape Town joined the Geocentric team in deploying the green bins in the area. We are confident that this project will make a significant contribution to the cleanliness of the SICID area. We encourage all our users of the public spaces and roads in SICID to use these bins and keep our area clean.

On behalf of SICID and Geocentric we would like to thank the officials of the City of Cape Town for their support in this project.

Onward to Achieving Our Vision

‘A SAFER – CLEANER AND A BUSINESS ATTRACTIVE CID

Some of the team members of the Stikland CID

Come rain or come shine the Stikland CID team will keep working to create a vibrant, clean and safe Stikland CID.  Our urban maintenance team got their rain gear on and braved the elements to continue the clean-up operations that we started on 1 August 2013.

In the adjacent photo maintenance team members Colin, Adam, Rodney and William from Geocentric show that they are ready fro the day along with Area Public Safety Manager, Roy Horn from Zonewatch.

The Stikland CID started on 1 August 2013 and we already formed new business partnerships with companies in the CID area.

Ralph van der Brock, the Stikland CID manager from Geocentric appointed to manage the area met with Mr           Douglas Greig from Tuffy Manufacturing (Pty) Ltd in Tedric Avenue.  Mr Greig indicated that he was awaiting the establishment of SICID with some anticipation.

Tuffy Manufacturing offered to donate bags for use in the CID and the rest is history.  The Stikland CID received a 1000 bag donation on 7^th August 2013 with a promise of a 1000 bags monthly.

What a wonderful gesture and partnership to have from the beginning.
