❗️Community Update On The Ginger Park Eviction Process❗️

The owner of the Ginger Park Informal Settlement property continues to actively pursue the enforcement of the eviction order granted by the High Court in August last year, which directed that the occupants vacate the property by February 2026.

Despite the court order being granted several months ago, the enforcement process has experienced ongoing delays. According to information available, the City of Johannesburg (COJ) has indicated that it has not yet identified a TEA (Temporary Emergency Accommodation) site for the occupants. This has contributed significantly to the postponement of the ex*****on of the eviction order.

In addition, several new legal submissions opposing the eviction have recently been introduced by various human rights legal representatives. However, it is the owner’s position that the objection period expired following the granting of the order in August last year, and that these subsequent submissions serve only to further delay the lawful enforcement process.

The owner’s legal representatives are now preparing to approach the Registrar of the High Court to obtain a writ of ex*****on. Once issued, the Sheriff of the Court, together with law enforcement authorities, will be empowered to serve the writ on the occupants, facilitate their removal from the property, and oversee the demolition of unlawful structures erected on the site.

Before enforcement can proceed, the property owner is required to provide the Sheriff with a substantial monetary security deposit, estimated to be between R200,000 and R500,000. The owner is currently in the process of securing these funds. In addition, the owner will need to independently procure demolition equipment and related services at his own expense.

It remains the owner’s view that these costs should not ordinarily fall on the property owner, particularly given that the City of Johannesburg is legally responsible for facilitating the removal process in accordance with the court order.

While many members of the community remain understandably frustrated by the delays, residents are encouraged to remain patient and sympathetic to the legal and logistical complexities involved. The eviction process remains active and ongoing, and enforcement of the court order is expected to proceed once the outstanding requirements have been met.

At this stage, no definitive timeline can be confirmed.

Let’s get into the spirit of the Soccer World Cup and proudly stand behind Bafana Bafana by wrapping trees in green and yellow fabric outside your homes, at complex entrances, and road closures throughout Lonehill!

We’ve brought incredible World Cup spirit to Lonehill before, now let’s do it again and make our suburb come alive with colour, pride, and community spirit once more!

We would love to have Lonehill fully dressed and match-ready before 11 June, so start planning your green and yellow displays now.

Once your trees are wrapped, send us your photographs so we can share them with the community, spread the excitement, and inspire even more residents to join in the fun.

Let’s unite, show our support for Bafana Bafana, and turn Lonehill into a sea of green and yellow!

Wondering where our weed-eating machine is?‼️

Last week marked an exciting step forward as the aquatic harvester officially went into the water for its initial testing phase at Lonehill Dam.🌱

Following the first trial run, engineers identified a few minor technical refinements and adjustments that will further improve the machine’s efficiency and overall performance. The harvester has therefore briefly returned to the workshop while these final tweaks are made.🔨

This is all part of the testing and fine-tuning process, and we’re hopeful the machine will be back in action at the dam in no time.

We’ll continue keeping residents updated as progress unfolds - exciting times ahead!⭐️
