Leave our names and fix our city

Really, there are far more important problems to be fixed with our money

I have been a resident in Kempton Park for over 40 years and stay in Cresslawn. I have never seen such filth and disgusting sights with litter everywhere in our city.

Does the municipality have a road sweeper to sweep our streets as I have never seen one? The streets around Cresslawn Primary School are dirty caused by inconsiderate parents driving through which was once a lovely park to drop off their children at school.

Heavy-duty trucks park their vehicles in the park which is against council law as this is municipality property.

To cut a long complaint short, I read in Kempton Express about the proposed name changes. Really? There are far more important problems to be fixed with our money such as sorting out the dirty, disgusting, filthy Pretoria Road which is now inhabited by rats.

Fix West Street and get the drug lords out of town. We do not need name changes with our money. We did not vote for name changes, so come on think rationally and do something positive for our once great city.

Why don’t you take a bus full of tourists from the airport and drive through Pretoria Road and get their reactions? So, come on council, think positively for once and do the right thing.

At Caxton, we employ humans to generate daily fresh news, not AI intervention. Happy reading!
