Resolution detail
REVIEW PROPOSED 11 SITES RECOMMENDED FOR THE DISCHARGE OF FIREWORKS
Ald March pointed out that Athlone Stadium is in Subcouncil 17 and not in SC 11 as stated in the report.
Cllr Kleinschmidt felt that this holiday should be phased out as it is not a South African holiday and tend to become very dangerous for the children.
Cllr R Adams concur with the previous Cllr and also stated that the criminals also take advantage of this day as the community cannot differentiate between the cracker sound and gun shots.
Cllr A Adams stated that it was irresponsible of the City to have these sights in the disadvantage areas as this is not being done in the more affluent areas.
Ald March said that it was too late for this round to do something about the SC’s concern. He said that this should be dealt with political and encouraged the Cllrs to raise this at their caucuses in order to phase this event out. |
RESOLVED that:
That the content of the Review proposed 11 sites recommended for the discharge of fireworks report be noted.
