Die BAILLIEPARK GEMEENSKAPSPROJEK NPC (BPGP) is gestig op 23 Junie 2021 met 8 lede uit die Bailliepark gemeenskap, om in samewerking met die gemeenskap en JB Marks munisipaliteit ons woonbuurt te beveilig en netjies te hou.
Die eerste projek wat ons aangepak het was om sekuriteitskameras in die buurt te laat installeer wat 24/7 gemonitor word, met ʼn mobiele reaksie-eenheid. Fase 1 van die Kamera Projek is afgehandel, daar is reeds 52 kameras wat beweging by 16 verskillende punte in die buurt monitor. Fase 2 is reeds aan die gang, om ʼn verdere vier kamera-stasies met 12 kameras te installeer. Elke fase se koste en die plasings van kamera-stasies word vooraf deur die bestuurskomitee goedgekeur en deurentyd met BPGP-lede gekommunikeer.
Teen die einde van Februarie 2022 sal daar dus 64 kameras wees op 20 punte wat digitaal gekoppel is aan Mooirivier Beskerming se beheerkamer, waar dit gemonitor word, met mobiele reaksie wanneer nodig. Aan die einde van die brief is daar ʼn kaart wat die uitleg van die twee fases aandui. Soos voorheen vermeld, erken ons met dankbaarheid die waardevolle bydraes van ES le Grange Hoërskool, Bailliepark Spar, Vescotech en Die Opstal-gastehuis vir die kameras wat hulle geborg het. Ons hartlike dank ook aan die anonieme inwoner wat ons met behulp van ʼn rentevrye lening gehelp het om die projek aan die gang te kry. Dit is net ‘n bewys van wat moontlik is wanneer die gemeenskap saamstaan.
Die installasiekoste van Fase 1 was R290,000, waarvan die rekening reeds vereffen is, terwyl die die installasiekoste van Fase 2 ʼn verdere R90,000 beloop. Die maandelikse moniteringskoste beloop tans R12,800 per maand.
Beveiliging is egter slegs net een deel van wat BPGP doen - die instandhouding en netheid van die buurt is die ander komponent. Die BPGP beplan om betrokke te raak by die herstel van slaggate, sny van gras in parke en op sypaadjies, asook die herstel van lekkende waterpype en stukkende straatligte in Bailliepark. Hierdie aktiwiteite word aangepak in samewerking met die JB Marks Munisipaliteit en die Wyk 3 Raadslid en Wykskomitee, om so daadwerklik ‘n verskil te maak in ons buurt.
“WORD 'N LID VAN DIE BPGP! RAAK DEEL VAN DIE OPLOSSING.”

The BAILLIE PARK COMMUNITY PROJECT NPC (BPGP) was founded on 23 June 2021 with 8 members from the Baillie Park community to improve the neighbourhood security and tidiness in collaboration with the community and the JB Marks municipality.
The first priority project involved the installation of security cameras in the neighbourhood that are monitored 24/7 by a security company, with a mobile reaction unit. Phase 1 of the Camera Project has been completed. After completion, 52 cameras monitor movement at 16 different locations in the neighbourhood. Phase 2 of this project is already well advanced to install another four camera stations with 12 cameras. The cost and localities of the camera stations are approved by the BPGP management committee before installation and communicated continually with the members.
At the end of February 2022 there will be 64 cameras at 20 different localities in Baillie Park that are digitally linked to the Mooirivier Beskerming control room, where they are monitored, with mobile response when required. A map that provides the lay-out of Phases 1 and 2 are included at the end of this document. As mentioned before, we acknowledge with gratitude the valuable contributions of ES le Grange Hoërskool, Bailliepark Spar, Vescotech and Die Opstal guest house for the cameras that they sponsored. In the same vein, we also thank the anonymous resident for the interest free loan that kick-started the project. All of this is proof of what is possible when the community unites.
The R290,000 account for the installation cost of Phase 1 has been settled, while the installation cost of Phase 2 is a further R90,000. The monitoring cost is currently R12,800 per month.
Improving the neighbourhood security only constitutes one part of the BPGP mandate, with the maintenance and tidiness of the neighbourhood the other part. The BPGP plan to become involved in the repair of pot holes, cutting of grass in the parks and on pavements, repair of leaking water pipes and street lights and other similar activities in Baillie Park. These activities are attended to in collaboration with the JB Marks Municipality and the Ward 3 councillor and Ward committee, to meaningfully contribute to service delivery solutions in the neighbourhood.
“JOIN THE BPGP AND BECOME PART OF THE SOLUTION!”
Cost to become a BPGP-member is as follows:
- Home owners – R200/R120* pm
- Town house complexes with (monitored) cameras - R25 pm per unit
- Businesses – R400 pm
- Town house complexes without (monitored) cameras - R50 pm per unit
* R120 pm for Pensioners (that cannot afford the standard fee)
