This municipality gives slightly better service delivery. However, the DA ( so called white skinned) that are running the municipality are TOO RACIST and think that white skinned people are superior to other color skins. What steenhuizen and jp smith and their click forget is that the outer skins are just that, skins. They all will die one day as will everyone else and their bodies will stink and rot just like all of the peoples.
Only stupid, foolish, idiotic people think nonsense. They hatred of the Palestinians is so blatant that it is sickening. They want people in their party to 'toe the line' of their blind support of the zionists. They are hypocrites. steebnhauzen goes to zelensky in ukraine to suck up to him because he is jew. Yet he does not allow his party memebr to speak what is his right to say. It had nothing to do with politics. It was a humanistic support he expressed.
Yet there mad zino supporters of the DA demand that many votes in parliament should be in secret and what their conscious demands. How low can one go to lie, cheat and be hypocritical?

ALL MANKIND ARE SIMILAR
Al-Qur’an: chapter 49 Verse 13: “O mankind! We (i.e. Allāh) created you from a single (pair) of a male and a female, and made you into nations and tribes, that ye may know each other (not that ye may despise (each other). Verily the most honoured of you in the sight of Allāh is (he who is) the most righteous of you. And Allāh has full knowledge and is well acquainted (with all things.)”
Mankind was one nation and over the ages through migration we became different nations. Yet we are the same and we share the same earth, and needs and feelings etc.
Al-Qur’an: Chapter 10 Verse 19: “Mankind was but one nation, but differed (later). Had it not been for a word that went forth before from Thy Lord, their differences would have been settled between them.”
Al-Qur’an: Chapter 2 Verse 213: “Mankind was one single nation, and Allāh sent Messengers with glad tidings and warnings; and with them He (i.e. Allāh) sent the Book in truth, to judge between people in matters wherein they differed; but the People of the Book, after the clear Messages came to them, did not differ among themselves, except through selfish contumacy. Allāh by His Grace Guided the believers to the Truth, concerning that wherein they differed. For Allāh guided whom He (i.e. Allāh) will to a path that is straight.” (Cf: chapter 2 verse 272; chapter 19 verse 76; chapter 28 verse 56; chapter 58 verse 22; chapter 16 verses 104-105)
DO NOT THINK OF BEING BETTER THAN OTHERS:
Al-Qur’an: chapter 49 Verse 11: “O ye who believe! Let not some men among you laugh at others: it may be that the (latter) are better than the (former): nor let some women laugh at others: It may be that the (latter are better than the (former): nor defame nor be sarcastic to each other, nor call each other by (offensive) nicknames: Ill-seeming is a name connoting wickedness, (to be used of one) after one has believed: And those who do not desist are (indeed) doing wrong.”
STAND OUT FOR TRUTH AND JUSTICE EVEN IF IT IS AGAINST YOUR OWN SELF:
Al-Qur’an: Chapter 4 verse 135: “O ye who believe in Allāh! Stand out firmly for justice, as witnesses to Allâh, even as against yourselves, or your parents, or your kin, and whether it be (against) rich or poor: for Allāh can best protect both. Follow not the lusts (of your hearts), lest ye swerve, and if ye distort (justice) or decline to do justice, Verily Allāh is well- acquainted with all that ye do.”

There is too much politics and not enough action.
Continual changes in leadership.
Very little action in terms of formalising homeless facilities and managing them.
Keeping the town clean.
Approval of building plans.
Lack of skilled personnel.

Knysna is a retirement and tourist area.
It is peaceful and harmonious.
The environment makes a good place to be.

There are lots of retired people with years of experience and willing to put back into the community. Try and get them to assist.

Broken pavements - more affluent areas like NEwlands and Claremont dont have this issue
Pavements that have not been tarred over - left open
Open manholes - covers not replaced with plastic covers

I do not think that our Councilor is doing what he/she should be doing. I think there is a partisan approach to the way things are done. There is no feedback to the residents.

I enjoy the diversity of our people and beauty of our land. Pity it is being messed up by the powers that be.

Planting of more indigenous trees. Social training / educating people in vegetable and fruit tree gardening. Our people need to be lifted up out of poverty.

Why cant there be a training and development programme (sort of a development school) using retired people with skills and business people who are prepared to give of their time for this.

Street lights arte left burning during the day
Water leaks are fixed temporary where the same leak is fixed every week
Potholes are ignored.
Speed humps are unmarked without proper chevrons to warn at night
Taxi operators loiter and destroy the public park and toilet facilitie3s which are not maintained or cleaned.
Municipal grass is left for cows to come and graze in the residential area.
Water charges are exorbitant and inconsistent.

Nothing

Open a soup kitchen structure that community churches can utilize to feed the homeless with toilet and shower facilities.

We pull together as a community, everyone looks out for each other

Train those responsible for verge maintenance in AIP removal and give them pride in their work
Institute a proper recycling system in the district so that people get rewarded for recycling
Educate children about the environment

The roads are falling apart and we have plenty of water supply problems. We pay ever increasing property taxes and get poor or no service. The issues were raise with the municipality, but they never seem to fix anything until it is a crises.

Garbage disposal is infrequent, and management of our estuary is non existent, we don't have lifeguards on our beach anymore in Chintsa East.

I love the fact that non-government workers in individuals work together to help the government do its job even though we pay taxes for said jobs to be done!

Turning plastic into plastic bricks. This is not a new idea in is being done all over the world...we can upcycle trash into something that can be used to build things for our community.
