IMPLEMENTATION
UPDATE – United we stand……..
Dear
Landowner,
The
month of October is over and we have all been blessed with wonderful rain.
May it continue for the entire summer;
-
Approximately
75% of the “clause 3 waver” documents have been signed.
It is still not enough! In
order to move things along, the shares that each landowner is entitled to
will be issued to only landowners who
have completed all their paperwork. No clause 3, DLIO or addendum signed
– no share certificate. Please urgently sign and get the documents to the
secretary – Marlize admin@dinokengbig5.com.
If you have any questions or queries, please drop us a line.
We will be happy to assist.
-
Keep
and eye on the “Report Back” on our web site – www.dinokengbig5.com.
This is your information web site and contains all the current
documentation. Please visit. The
draft house rules have been sent out for comment and can also be viewed on
the website. Please submit any input to admin@dinokengbig5.com.

Until
the internal fences are removed landowners with game on their land are
reminded of the following clauses from their Game Purchase Agreement:
Clause
4.1 The Game owner agrees and shall continue to manage the game sold in
terms hereof until the dropping of the internal fences in the Dinokeng Game
Reserve
Clause
4.3 …The Game owner shall retain a duty of care in respect of the proper care
for the game sold in terms of this agreement until any internal fences on and
between the game owners farm has been removed…
Landowners
must please remember that all game in our game reserve still belongs to the
Gauteng
government. Under no circumstances
may any game be harvested in any way whatsoever.
Please feel free to contact the LOA Exco for any advice that you may need
regarding the management of game on your property in the interim.

The
Gautrain has delayed the galvanising process for our grids on the
Boekenhoutkloof Road
, but they have promised them to us in two weeks time. Work has started on
placing the grids along the
Kaallaagte Road
. Installation for the
Boekenhoutkloof road is still planned for early November.
As soon as the grids are in place internal fences can be removed.
Once
the fences along the roads have been removed, wild animals will roam freely
across these roads. A speed limit of 60
kph on main roads and 40 kph on
secondary roads will be imposed for people and animal safety.
The
speed limits pertaining to the DB5 roads will be enforced by the Local Authority
and other State Law Enforcement Agencies.
-
A
meeting with Nature Conservation will soon be held with Mr Erasmus Nkabinde

b.

As
Buffalo
are already on the reserve it is important to stress that from the time the
grids are up on the Boekenhoutkloof road there
is dangerous game loose on the reserve.
Pedestrian traffic, cycling etc will be undertaken at “own risk”.
The reserve management and lodge owners will accept no responsibility or
legal liability for accidents.
-
Landowners
are reminded of their contractual obligations to their employees, as per the
Dinokeng Land Incorporation Agreement –
Clause
13.3 The Landowner agrees that it shall fence off, at its cost, that area of its
Land comprising the housing area for all its employees and labour.
Clause
13.4 The Landowner shall be responsible for the Safety of its employees and
absolves the Association, ManCo and GameCo from any liability and damages that
may be caused by any wild animals.

Lynn,
our Implementation Manager (who can be reached on 083 885 6577) has
identified the internal fences that need to be removed and will facilitate
this process. Please contact him
with any concerns you may have.
Till
next month….
