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.

New Business Partnership for Stikland CID

TuffyThe 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 7th August 2013 with a promise of a 1000 bags monthly.

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