Exciting new developments taking place in and around Margate
Margate is proving to be one of the most improved and safest areas, and this has been the doing of all stakeholders, according to Stephen Herbst of Tidy Towns.
A lot of very exciting and positive growth has been happening in the South Coast’s capital Margate, of late.
This comes ahead of Margate being voted as a finalist in the Kwela Dorp van die Jaar competition. The results of this competition is now anxiously awaited.
The ‘let’s put Margate back on the map’ attitude has become catchy with owners of buildings, restaurants and holiday accommodation getting behind the ‘Tidy Towns concept’ by renovating and painting their properties to ensure they look good.
Passionate about Margate is Stephen Herbst of Tidy Towns Shelly Beach to Margate, who said the public-private partnership is fantastic to see.
He was driving around the seaside town earlier today and was blown away by the latest developments.
Herbst said he has to thank the sterling efforts of the Margate Community Police Forum (CPF), headed by chairman Jan van Niekerk and his team, who are making great strides in the town to sort out petty crime.
“Further thanks to the partnerships of security companies, Saps, Law Enforcement, and the business/private sector,” he said.
