Urgent – NRPA calling on the community to contribute to buying the plot on the corner of Silvermine and Main Road
As you may have read, the plot on the corner of Silvermine and Main Road is coming up for auction on March 12th. NRPA put out a message on Feb 26th about it if you would like to read more. In the past weeks NRPA has reached out to the owner to see if there is a possibility to buy it and thereby keep control over what happens on this iconic location. While an agreement on price is not yet in place the owner has indicated that would be keen for the community to buy it. A detailed discussion on what would happen after the community buys it still needs to be held, but in general it would be to prevent inappropriate development.
NRPA does not have the funds required to buy this property, therefore, before going down the route of actually creating a legal structure and concluding a deal, it is important for us to gauge the willingness of Noordhoekers to contribute financially.
The question to you is therefore: are you willing to contribute funds to the purchase of erf 4741 (2 Silvermine Road)? If so could you please send an email to info@nrpa.org.za indicating the amount you would be willing to pledge? Due to the short time period before the auction we need to get these pledges in as soon as possible.
