Although most of us cherish the vast open spaces we live in, so many of the inhabitants of the region we serve struggle daily to survive the onslaught of poverty and social exclusion. As Mayor I am aware of the numerous responsibilities bestowed on the council to bring about fundamental changes to our region that will have a positive effect on the livelihoods of all our people. The IDP process provides us with the opportunity to join hands for bringing about a brighter future for all of us. Only through our collaborated efforts will we succeed in this goal. I therefore wish to invite all citizens and institutional role-players to participate in this dynamic process of Integrated Development Planning for this District Municipality. Through our active involvement with other spheres of government we have succeeded thus far to establish significant financial and institutional support for development in this region. As one of the thirteen rural development nodes in the country we have received substantial support to address service delivery backlogs for all communities in the district. Let us join hands for a better future, dignifying our responsibilities to current and future generations. THE MAYOR: COUNCILLOR Doreen Hugo 2 Central Karoo District Municipality IDP Review 2004/05 FOREWORD: MUNICIPAL MANAGER Municipalities throughout the country are obliged by legislation to draw up an IDP and by revising it annually. Not only is this helping to focus development efforts but it is also a manner of managing municipalities. The IDP is an institutionalised process as a management mechanism according to which municipal activities are being managed, with a primary focus on implementation. The IDP is demanding a great deal from municipal officials. The officials of the CKDM, I have learnt, have not backed down from the challenge and are actively involved in the IDP. The annual budget are aligned with the IDP – thereby reflecting the needs of the community in the municipality’s resource allocation. We endeavour to manage this to the best of our abilities, reflecting our commitment to serve the interest of all citizens in the region. The drafting of this review document do not indicate an end result but rather the progress made and an update on the previous document. Many of the interventions identified in our IDP, especially for the short and medium terms, focus on the establishment of sound planning practices and building capacity both in the community and internally at the CKDM. We believe that this will enhance and encourage sustainable development in the region. The document also indicates capital projects to address current backlogs in infrastructure and service delivery. I wish to extend my sincere gratitude to all individuals who have contributed to the establishment of a sound basis for Integrated Development Planning at this Municipality. Nothing in life is perfect, but I am proud of what we have achieved thus far. Mr T. Prince Municipal Manager 3 Central Karoo District Municipality IDP Review 2004/05 Introduction The Central Karoo District covers the municipal areas of Beaufort West, Laingsburg and Prince Albert, as well as the District Management Area (DMA), which includes the town of Murraysburg. The District has been declared as a Presidential Node by President Thabo Mbeki during 2001 due to the high levels of poverty and has therefore been incorporated in the Integrated Sustainable Rural Development Programme (ISRDP). The various local authorities have embarked on a process of Integrated Development Planning, as required by the Local Government: Municipal Systems Act (nr 32 of 2000), to address service delivery shortfalls, as well supporting economic and social development within the respective municipal areas. This document constitutes the review of the planning processes for the financial year 2005/06 as undertaken by the various municipalities and will focus on the respective municipalities within a district context. Figure 1: Central Karoo District Municipal Area (including Beaufort West, Laingsburg and Prince Albert Municipalities) The document will focus on the following themes: • Integrated Development Planning: Background and process • Economic Development: Economic Regeneration, Business Opportunities Conference • Current Programmes / Grants: ISRDP, Project Consolidate, MIG, MSIG • Operational Activities of the District Municipality: Primary and Environmental Health, Road Maintenance, Corporate Services and Finance Department • CKDM IDP project register • Municipal Overviews: o Beaufort West o Laingsburg o Prince Albert 4 Central Karoo District Municipality IDP Review 2004/05 Integrated Development Planning Integrated Development Planning is the core municipal planning tool. It is used to align the budget of the municipality in order to respond to community and development needs, as well as optimising the service delivery of the municipality. The Local Government: Municipal Systems Act (32 of 2000) constitutes the legal mandate for the compilation of Integrated Development Plans in Chapter 5. This section will focus on the following: • Background – a brief description of the IDP-processes • Process – the process of review during 2004/5 for implementation 2005/06 • Progress with sectoral plans Background The Central Karoo District Municipality’s Integrated Development Plan (here-after referred to as IDP) was compiled by PricewaterhouseCoopers and finalised during 2002. The initial plan set the strategic framework for subsequent planning and review processes. During the initial planning process, eight strategic Key Performance Areas were identified. These Performance Areas encompasses the functioning of the municipality and organises its function in terms thereof. In terms of the Local Government: Municipal Systems Act (Act 32 of 2000), municipalities are obliged to review their IDP’s on an annual basis in order to measure implementation of the plan, as well as the relevance thereof in light of changing circumstances. During the two review cycles following the initial compilation of the plan, institutional and participatory processes were aligned to the planning process, leading to improved cooperation between Local and District Municipalities. One of the main successes was the adoption of a standard set of Key Performance Areas for the whole district. This enables the district to structure its planning in a coherent fashion. The eight Key Performance Areas are indicated on the diagramme. Economic: Social Development Stimulate, strengthen and improve the economy for sustainable growth Environment Create and maintain a clean, healthy and safe natural and built environment IDP Key Performance Areas Land and Housing Support and coordinate equal and adequate access to land and housing Institutional: Facilitate, develop and maintain sustainable municipal service delivery capacity in the district The creation of a stable social environment conducive to employment, social development and community care Health Facilitate and maintain accessible and affordable basic medical services for all people in the district Infrastructure and basic Service Financial Management: The maintenance and promotion of a financially viable district municipality Provision and maintenance of appropriate infrastructure Figure 2: Key Performance Areas 5 Central Karoo District Municipality IDP Review 2004/05 Process As required by the Systems Act, municipalities must define the process by which the review of the plan will take place.

September 7 Central Karoo District Municipality IDP Review 2004/05 Economic Development Economic Development remains a developmental challenge in the Central Karoo District. Due to the low population density, the distance from large markets and the arid climate, economic development opportunities are significantly less than in other districts in the Western Cape. While the Central Karoo District has high levels of infrastructure provision – it is the unemployment and poverty, which are of concern. Despite the challenges hampering economic growth, the various municipalities have embarked on a variety of projects and supporting initiatives to boost their local economic development (LED). Economic Regeneration After embarking on an extensive analysis (Central Karoo Economic Regeneration Study: Economic Profile Strategic Issues and Informants, 2003) of economic potentials, the following priority issues have been identified to inform the LED Strategy of the Central Karoo: • Strategies should focus on the unemployed urban woman of the region and on plans to retain more economically active males in the area. • Strategies should focus on the two economic sectors with real growth potential, namely: agri-processing and tourism. • Without neglecting other brackets on the economic spectrum, strategies should focus on Public Private Partnerships. • Strategies should focus on geographic areas with the most potential for economic growth Based on the above, the Strategic Framework for Economic Regeneration (2003) defined the interrelated pillars, and strategic objectives on which the economic vision of the Central Karoo Rest, namely: KEY PILLARS STRATEGY OBJECTIVES • Community based economic development • • • Building partnerships • • • • Human capital development • • • Infrastructure and municipal services • • All available sources of funding for community based economic activity are accessed and that a wide spectrum of the Central Karoo’s residents benefit from these initiatives. Opportunities created through community based economic activity should be exploited to assist local communities to enter the local and national economy and contribute meaningfully to the well being of the region. Recruit compatible new businesses – specifically in the two identified growth sectors, i.e. tourism and agri-processing. Enhancing the local assets of the region is a key consideration of this objective. Enhance local assets – by taking steps to enhance local assets the communities of the Central Karoo can build a sound economic base from which additional development can occur. Attract investment finance – and link with good initiatives identified through processes to date. Manage investment – specifically to areas with most potential for economic growth within the region, whilst ensuring economic benefit for the poorer areas. Developmental local government – in the 13 nodal areas the local authorities have the added responsibility to ensure that economic regeneration is implemented. Significantly improving the level of skills and learning amongst the communities of the region. Implementing targeted community based regeneration programmes. Ensuring that economic development and opportunities derive social benefits for the communities of the Central Karoo. Infrastructure programmes of the various municipalities are aligned with the stated aims of the SFER. Basic services are provided at affordable prices to the local communities. Sustainable job creation through long-term public works and maintenance programmes. 8 Central Karoo District Municipality IDP Review 2004/05 KEY PILLARS STRATEGY OBJECTIVES • • Plugging the leaks in the local economy • • Supporting and expansion of existing local businesses • • Import substitution – many imports, notably such necessities as energy, food, health care and housing can often be supplied locally at no extra cost, and sometimes at a saving. Resource efficiency – even when a certain commodity cannot be produced locally, it can often be used more efficiently to achieve the same net result. This is probably the most reliable economic strategy of all. Buy-local programmes – to promote the spirit of leak-plugging communities should be encouraged to buy locally through awareness campaigns and other innovative programmes. Stronger informal economy – it doesn’t always take an official programme to plug a leak. The ability of the informal economy of the region to replace imports should be enhanced and developed. Retain existing businesses and encourage it to become more efficient and successful. Many development experts are convinced that this strategy is the fastest way to increase jobs and strengthen an area’s economy. Encourage new local enterprise – by creating an exciting business climate will automatically lead to opportunities for creating new businesses. Business Opportunities Conference The CKDM hosted a two-day Business Opportunities Conference on the 8th and 9th September 2004, in Beaufort West with the theme “Building Partnerships in the Presidential Central Karoo Node” 1. The conference saw the presentation of various investment opportunities across the region. It provided a platform to demonstrate the commitment of National, Provincial and Local Government to the Central Karoo Region. Key Development Agencies, such as the Development Bank of South Africa (DBSA) and the Department of Trade and Industry, also offered support for economic initiatives in the region. Resultant from the Conference, PricewaterhouseCoopers compiled a summary report indicating the main focus points for the four preferred areas for unlocking LED opportunities. A summary is provided below: Key LED Sectors Leveraged Support for Tourism Development Agriculture 1 Main focus • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • Link community- based tourism to the Karoo National Park Encourage additional time spent of travelling through tourists Increase economic value tourist offerings Integrate marketing plan for regional tourism Leverage off Garden Route R62-Linkages Development and marketing of Eco-Tourism Historic settlements in Prince Albert as tourism destinations Support for BEE in the tourism sector Strengthen relationships with South African National Park Marketing of Conference facilities in the region Development of public / private partnerships in the sector Availability of state owned land for land reform and small farmer development Land reform as a national strategy implemented in the region Value added industry development – hides, skins, meat products, wool, mohair, deciduous fruit and leather products Address challenges in the sector Technology challenges Skills Increase labour cost Transfer of skills Value adding job creation projects to involve local labour Community garden flagship project can develop into regional supplier of vegetables Link processed fruit and vegetables to tourism and craft initiatives PricewaterhouseCoopers, CKDM: Status Quo Assessment and Way Forward Framework (Discussion Document) 2004 9 Central Karoo District Municipality IDP Review 2004/05 Key LED Sectors Manufacturing Transportation Main focus • • • • • Promote indigenous farming, livestock, sheep, diary goats, etc Export promotion of local produce Skills development for and marketing of stable and cheap labour for manufacturing businesses Development and expansion of focussed service / support industry Establishment of storing and dispatch facilities at towns in the region Economic Development Projects Within the context of the above the District, as well as the B-municipalities have initiated a variety of projects aimed specifically at supporting Local Economic Development. This section will focus only on the Central Karoo District Municipality’s projects, as the different municipalities’ projects are indicated in the respective municipal overviews. Beaufort West Sport Facility The Beaufort West Sport Facility is a regional sports facility compliant with international standards. The current facility in Rustdene makes provision for a grass athletics/rugby field which is to be upgraded to a synthetic athletic track and a rugby field that would accommodate provincial rugby events as well as a training facility for international rugby events; two soccer fields to be upgraded to the provincial and international soccer standards of which one would be used as a dual purpose soccer and rugby facility where the main stadium is in construction; two tennis courts upgraded; two netball courts; change room; office and a hall. All other facilities would be upgraded to provincial standards. The completed grand stand would be 100m long and would provide seating for approximately 1300 spectators. The sport facility would further accommodate an indoor facility that would include a fully equipped gym, a hall to practice karate and a hall to practice professional ballroom dancing as well as ablution and office space. This facility will raise the level of sports excellence in the Central Karoo Region as well as amongst its neighbouring regions. It would provide opportunity to the Region to host provincial sporting events and a training field for international soccer and rugby events. This would have indirect spin-offs for the entire region by creating additional employment opportunities for example in the tourism sector or opportunities for SMME development. This project would become a meeting point for youth to organize themselves as there is nothing that occupies the youth. The stadium will serve as recreational facility for the community and the region as a whole. Site Location: Beaufort West (Rustdene) Launching Date: 30 November 2004 Project Cost: R16, 386, 400 10 Central Karoo District Municipality IDP Review 2004/05 Programmes Due to the Nodal status of the district, a variety of programmes are being implemented. This section will focus on the various programmes being implemented in the district and includes: • Integrated Sustainable Rural Development Programme (ISRDP) • Project Consolidate • Municipal Infrastructure Grant (MIG) • Municipal Systems Improvement Grant (MSIG) Integrated Sustainable Rural Development Programme (ISRDP) President Mbeki announced the Integrated Sustainable Rural Development Strategy (ISRDS) in February 2001, during the State of the Nation Address. Since then the ISRDS has been transformed into an implementable programme, the ISRDP. Significant investment in rural areas between 1994 and 2000 proved to not have the envisaged impact in alleviating the endemic poverty and strengthening local institution. It appeared that the range and quality of development and anti-poverty programmes in existence are appropriate, but the impact of these programmes was weakened by poor coordination and integration to provide an integrated basket of services that matched local priorities. In response to this, the aim of this programme was therefore articulated as being: “to conduct a sustained campaign against rural and urban poverty and underdevelopment, bringing in the resources of all three spheres of government in a coordinated manner” DPLG is he national coordinating institution for the ISRDP and has overall responsibility. Cabinet appointed the Independent Development Trust (IDT) to provide support services to the programme.” The Vision of the ISRDP: To attain socially cohesive and stable communities with viable institutions, sustainable economies and universal access to social amenities, able to attract skilled and knowledgeable people, equipped to contribute to their own and the nation’s growth and development. The core principles of the ISRDP: • • • • • • • To promote participatory development in an integrated manner by ensuring that, where appropriate, decision-making involves local communities and all three spheres pf government; To promote co-operative governance across all three spheres of government; To promote the values of the Constitution and the principles of Batho Pele; To integrate various governmental rural development initiatives; To develop the capacity of local government to effectively implement the ISRDP; To adhere to the principles of good governance and the PFMA; To target the rural poor, women, youth and the disabled in particular Figure 3: ISRDP Nodes 11 Central Karoo District Municipality IDP Review 2004/05 The following table indicates the ISRDP-projects for the District: IDP / Nodal Challenges Central Karoo District Municipality Lack of recreational and developmental facilities for the region as a whole.

The MIG gives effect to earlier Cabinet decisions and policy positions on the establishment of a single consolidated funding mechanism to support municipal infrastructure. The MIG has been set up to merge the following funding programmes in a phased manner commencing in 2004/05: • • • • • • Consolidated Municipal Infrastructure Programme, in support of internal bulk, connector infrastructure and community facilities to poor households; Water Service Capital Fund, in support of bulk, connector and internal infrastructure for water services at a basic level; Community Based Public Works Programme, in support of the creation of community assets in rural, historically disadvantage communities; Local Economic Development Fund, in support of planning, and implementation of job creation and poverty alleviation; Building for Sport and Recreation Programme, in support of promoting sport and recreation facilities within disadvantage communities; and Electrification funding in support of addressing the electrification backlog of permanently occupied residential dwellings that are situated in historically under-supplied areas. The MIG is a new infrastructure transfer mechanism and is geared to making the system of transfers to municipalities simpler, more certain and direct. Its conditions are more flexible, designed to support the capital budgets of municipalities, and to facilitate integrated development planning. The MIG will not fund 16 Central Karoo District Municipality IDP Review 2004/05 specific projects, but is designed to complement the capital budgets of municipalities (similar to the provincial infrastructure grant). Reporting on spending will therefore be on the entire capital budget of municipalities, which also has to ensure that there are sufficient operational budgets in the future to fund such capital expenditure. Individual national line departments will continue to lead the monitoring and support of implementation in their specific functions and priorities. The following tables indicate the progress with the current MIG (2004/05) projects, as well as the planned MIG projects for 2005/06 for the Central Karoo (including the DMA). The MIG projects (progress 2004/05 and planned 2005/06) of the respective municipalities will also be addressed in the municipal overviews.

In 2003 the Department of Science and Technology, approved funding for the establishment of an Essential Oils Pilot Project in Beaufort West. This project is phased over two financial years. Funding for the current financial year was used for the activities outlined below: • Community alignment, site preparation, infrastructure establishment and a trial planting of 5 cultivars covering 0,5 ha. • Harvesting of plant material ready for oils extraction for evaluation purposes. • The analyses of these oils will be used to determine which cultivars are technically and commercially viable in Beaufort West. • This phase has provided 10 temporary employment opportunities as well as 10 full time job opportunities. Site Location: Beaufort West Launching Date: 1 January 2004 Project Cost: R 800 000 Hydroponics Beaufort West Hydroponics is a Section 21 Company trading in fresh herbs in Beaufort West. Some of the herbs are grown hydroponically (without soil) for the fresh produce market and some are grown in soil for the essential oils market. In 2003 the Department of Science and Technology, in conjunction with the Provincial Government of the Western Cape, approved funding for the expansion of the (pilot) hydroponics facility into a fully-fledged business. An 18-month pilot project has already been completed. This has proven both the technical and commercial viability of growing herbs hydroponically in Beaufort West. The expansion project is aimed at transferring a full-scale technologyrich solution into an economically depressed area in order to address a market opportunity, thereby creating at least 80 additional sustainable jobs. Site Location: Beaufort West Launching Date: June 2003 Project Cost: R 5 000 000 33 Central Karoo District Municipality IDP Review 2004/05 Abattoir and by-products This project is designed as an anchor that has a multi-purpose nature that incorporates an abattoir, tannery and leather production. It is anticipated that the abattoir would feed some of its by-products to the tannery and leather projects with raw material for processing and manufacturing of products. The abattoir would be specifically geared for small stock slaughter as well as pigs, cattle, ostriches and various game and should provide employment directly as well as through an additional pre-packaging unit. It is expected that such a facility could achieve premium prices on its meat because of the reputation already built up for Karoo quality mutton and lamb. The Construction and operation of a multi purpose abattoir would “process” approximately 80 ostriches, 250 livestock and 400 game 100 heads of game per day. By-products would be processed and marketed as a value-adding component to the business. It is estimated that the project would create 60 direct sustainable employment and 25 indirect employment opportunities. Site Location: Beaufort West Launching Date: May 2005 Project Cost: R 7 065 000 Leather Products Poverty, prevalent mostly within rural communities, is a major challenge in South Africa. It denies communities of employment and economic growth. In acknowledging this challenge, the government has listed as two of its imperatives, the need to promote poverty alleviation within communities, and rural development. Subsequent to the CSIR’s continuous interactions with communities, leather projects have been established in North West and Kwa-Zulu Natal Provinces. During a Rapid Review of selected towns in the Western Cape the CSIR identified the opportunity to establish manufacturing of leather-based products in the Central Karoo. The communities identified in the Central Karoo include, Beaufort West, Laingsburg and Prince Albert. The former two are situated on the N1 and represent significant tourist stop over points, and the economy of Prince Albert is largely based on tourism. Utilising existing and currently planned structures such as the ’Arts and Crafts Centres’ will provide significant local sales outlets for the products. Site Location: Beaufort West and Laingsburg Launching Date: March 2004 Project Cost: R 4 000 000 Programmes As mentioned earlier in the document, a variety of programmes are currently in process in the district, namely • Integrated Sustainable Rural Development Programme (ISRDP) • Project Consolidate • Municipal Infrastructure Grant (MIG) 34 Central Karoo District Municipality IDP Review 2004/05 The following sections will focus on the respective programmes as implemented in the Beaufort West Municipality.

The municipal area has a total population of approximately 6681 residents. The following table indicates the key demographic information for the municipal area, specifically with regard to service delivery and employment (a comprehensive demographic report is available in the 2004 review document) Laingsburg Population Water Refuse 1996 2001 Total Population African 5,912 6,681 222 150 Coloured 4623 5539 White 991 984 Indians/ Other 76 8 HH % Dwelling 1152 59.9% Yard 618 32.2% Stand <200m 81 4.2% Stand >200m 31 1.6% Weekly 1207 62.8% Less Often 11 0.6% Communal Dump 12 0.6% Own Dump 681 35.4% 43 Central Karoo District Municipality IDP Review 2004/05 Laingsburg No Rubbish Disposal 12 0.6% Total 1,923 100.1% Waterborne Sanitation 1201 62.5% Tank 242 12.6% 4 0.2% VIP 188 9.8% Without Ventilation 79 4.1% Bucket 60 3.1% None 149 7.8% Total 1,923 100.1% Electricity 1212 63.1% Gas 109 5.7% Chemical Toilet Sanitation Electricity for Paraffin Cooking 18 0.9% 576 30.0% 5 0.3% Employed 1500 57% Unemployed 1132 43% 2632 100.0% 1620 26.2% Wood Coal Employment Total Labour Force Not Economically Active This section will focus on the following aspects of Integrated Development Planning within the Laingsburg context: • Economic Development • Programmes (ISRDP, Project Consolidate) • MIG 2004/05, 2005/06 • IDP -Project Registers 2004/05, 2005/06 Economic Development The 2004 IDP review indicated the following economic potentials for the town: 1. Agri-business a) Olive production and processing b) Floriskraal Dam – trout fishing c) Cold storage d) Establish regional marketing business e) Promote indigenous sheep breeds f) Processing fruit and vegetables g) Promote micro-livestock enterprises h) Hyde, skin and leather based craft i) Waste to wood 2. Enterprising – Marketing & Sales a) Integration model b) Integrated Craft Centre c) Cheese making (goat and sheep) d) Commercialize Karoo wild flowers 3. Transport c) Establish local taxi services d) Installation of pedestrian and bicycle path ways e) Truck shop upgrade 4. Tourism a) Tourism resort and Floriskraal Dam 44 Central Karoo District Municipality IDP Review 2004/05 Based on these economic potentials, the following key projects are being planned, or have been initiated in the municipal area. Fruit Processing Laingsburg produces fruit and vegetables of exceptional sun ripe quality especially down stream from the Floriskraal dam. The region is known for its seasonal production of apricots, dried yellow peaches, pears, plums, quinces and tomatoes and produces 300t to 400t of apricots; 200t to 300ton yellow peaches dried 200t; 100ton pears, 50 ton plums 20t quinces and 200 ton tomatoes. Farmers are currently processing fruit in small quantities or sell fruit in bulk that impact on the season, the profit they make as well as their ability to provide more employment opportunities and have therefore pledged their support to a central processing facility. A survey has revealed high interest and skills in the Laingsburg community regarding jams and preserves. The central processing facility will sort and process fruit and vegetables into dried products, juice, jam, chutney, sugar fruit and preserves. The project will through its cooling facility ease the seasonal problems farmers have to flatten out peaks and obtain labour. Public Private Partnerships; Black Economic Empowerment (SMME Development) and equity ventures could ensue. Site Location: Laingsburg Launching Date: May 2005 Project Cost: R 885 000 Pallet, Crate and Dry Rack Manufacture A high demand for pallets exists which comply with ISO standards in the packing industry in both the Western Cape and Free State. The manufacture of pallets, crates and dry racks will prevent money from flowing out of the region and empower the local community through skills transfer and sales into a lucrative local market. The project will enhance local economic development and employment creation as A current shortage of pallets exists. The market fluctuates according to the fruit season. Production of pallets would therefore dovetail nicely with furniture manufacture. The N1 national road passing through Laingsburg, creates the ideal opportunity to supply of wood and delivery product to the Western Cape market at competitive pricing also when used to transport packed items. Raw wood can be easily sourced as it is currently being transported through the town on the N1. Getting pallets to the market could again be easily facilitated through the large volume of trucking and rail freight passing through Laingsburg. Site Location: Laingsburg Launching Date: April 2005 Project Cost: R 1 800 000 Sleeper Wood Furniture This project will empower the local community through skills transfer and sales into a lucrative market. 45 Central Karoo District Municipality IDP Review 2004/05 The project will promote down stream processing and value adding in the Municipal area. Work currently performed outside the Municipal area or at great cost will be done locally enhancing economic development and employment creation. A worldwide shortage of hard wood exists. Throughout Southern Africa sleepers are processed for the upper local and export market. The N1 national road passing through Laingsburg creates the ideal opportunity to supply furniture at competitive pricing. Site Location: Laingsburg Project Launching Date: February 2005 Project Cost: R 1 200 000 Warehousing and Transfer Packaging This project will provide ideal storage of rust prone material such as Sheet metal, Wire Spare parts, Furniture, and the long-term storage of documentation, etc. The facility also to cater for high activity ‘bulking up and loading)’ storage to satisfy shipping needs, repacking, splitting and transfer of loads, labelling and marking products. The N1 national road passing through Laingsburg creates the ideal opportunity to along with the transfer warehouse facility, expand existing heavy vehicle maintenance facilities, and have an upgraded truck stop to allow truckers sleepover as a way to address the high accident rate, such as loads. This could become the turnaround point in Laingsburg for raising its economy. Laingsburg is easily accessible both by road and by railway. A further opportunity is to encourage truckers to sleepover as a way of addressing the high accident rate. This would create an opportunity for a truck stop. Site Location: Laingsburg Launching date: March 2005 Project Cost: R 8 427 000 Wine Cellar Annually over 50 ton of rare Hanepoot grape is delivered to the De Doorns cellars, together with some 250 ton of Columbar and Steen delivered to them and other cellars. De Doorns manufactures a well-known Jeripico and bottle it together with other Laingsburg grape, under their name. The Laingsburg farmers long felt the need to have an own cellar for the production of their unique strong Muscat Jeripico under their own name. Calculations show the required cellar to be an extremely viable proposition and uniquely suited to encourage new upcoming farmers into small-scale farming. Existing farmers have expressed a keenness to assist newcomers and a willingness to make land available to PDI's. Skills transfer will ensure true empowerment. 46 Central Karoo District Municipality IDP Review 2004/05 The project will enhance the Laingsburg name, local economic development and employment creation Public Private Partnerships; Black Economic Empowerment (SMME Development) and equity ventures will form part of the initiative. Site Location: Laingsburg Launching Date: June 2005 Project Cost: R 5 340 000 Programmes As mentioned earlier in the document, a variety of programmes are currently in process in the district, namely • Integrated Sustainable Rural Development Programme (ISRDP) • Project Consolidate • Municipal Infrastructure Grant (MIG) The following sections will focus on the respective programmes as implemented in the Laingsburg Municipality.

The project includes the construction of sufficient road infrastructure, as well as the installation of a pontoon with landing areas, which crosses the Gamkaspoort dam. Site location: Gamkaspoort Dam and Swartberg Pass Launching Date: September 2004 Total Project Value: R 5 000 000 Cold Storage Facility The Cold Storage initiative is a catalyst for economic development and employment creation. The cold storage facility makes provision for three cold storage possibilities that includes: (a) Pre-cooling facility to enhance quality; (b) High activity ‘bulking up and loading storage to satisfy shipping needs, and (c) Low activity storage that would make provision for local sales or a preserve factory (medium or long term) to maximize the market through slow release of products that would stretch the employment season in the region. This project forms part of a larger employment creation programme that would create an estimated 500 jobs through agricultural activities (fruit and vegetable production and processing and flower bulbs production for the export market) and an under-utilized abattoir (linked to live-stock production and processing) and expansion of tannery activities. Flower Bulb production will enhance the capacity utilization of the cold storage. It makes provision for Black Economic Empowerment (SMME Development) as well as making provision for possibility of equity ventures. In addition the programme promotes Public Private Partnerships. Site Location: Prince Albert Launching Date: April 2005 Project Cost: R 4 505 000 56 Central Karoo District Municipality IDP Review 2004/05 Swartberg Pass Rehabilitation The Swartberg opened in 1886 (declared a national monument in 1899), provided direct access between Prince Albert and Oudsthoorn and access to the “Hel”/Gamkaskoof. The pass have deteriorated over the last few years and caused tremendous damage to this historical landmark. Rehabilitation of the pass is necessary to improve and provide adequate access to and from Oudtshoorn that enjoys mainstream international tourism on which Prince Albert can further capitalize. Rehabilitation of the pass would increase tourism in Prince Albert. The proposed project is a multi-facetted programme that comprises of a labour intensive pass rehabilitation programme and will be implemented in accordance with a multi-disciplinary formulated pass rehabilitation framework based on research and input including engineering, cultural/historical, biophysical, landscaping, use area etc. A synergy that is offered by the rehabilitation of the Swartberg pass will be the restoration of existing Tollhouses as a Swartberg Toll housing development project (guesthouses). Site Location: Swartberg Pass, Prince Albert Launching Date: N/a Project Cost: R 10 000 000 Programmes As mentioned earlier in the document, a variety of programmes are currently in process in the district, namely • Integrated Sustainable Rural Development Programme (ISRDP) • Project Consolidate • Municipal Infrastructure Grant (MIG) Integrated Sustainable Rural Development Programme (ISRDP) The ISRDP Programme, which has been running since 2001, has had a significant impact on the local communities.
