I agree totally with Bruno. Also, I don't understand why the current levy is apparently not effective to give us more horse carts. What is happening with the current money?! Every single household in ons pays via rates. So how can there not be enough money? Melanie

One of these days, the bullet will come out and it will be too late to react. We pay for security, if we are mugged at gunpoint 2 times per week, sorry but it's a fail.

They do not have the authority to charge whatever levy they deem suitable and their powers are limited. Infringement of any of the regulations could have dire consequences.

Our side of Obs used to be very quiet and somehow reasonable in regards with crimes (a few car break ins, mugging the tunnels under the rails). In the past 6 months, things have gone wild over here: stolen cars, armed muggings, house break-ins, etc. Our wives and kids are not safe anymore! This week only, two armed robberies occurred 20 meters from my house, people got guns pointed at them, nearly same place, twice in a week, at 6pm! Since a year, we have hosted the horse box with security during 4 weeks. That is all in regards with crime prevention in our zone. And it worked perfectly well as all went quiet for 4 weeks. All we get is reactive actions... Wait to face the gun, pray to stay alive, but don't worry OBSID will help you fill the paperwork! I sincerely think OBSID needs to have more power, more patrols, more horse boxes, more contribution from the Citizen. In my own case, the past six months did cost about 60000 ZAR of stolen goods and windows replaced. Hence 10000 ZAR/month!!! I am definitely happy to increase OBSID fee by 100 or 200 or 500 Rands to avoid that in the future.
