New Year Greetings to all our Paulshof Residents and Businesses

With the arrival of 2012, your PRRA committee plans to focus on two major outcomes:

• Better security and a lower crime-incident rate.
• One inclusive, growing Paulshof community incorporating all areas of Paulshof, where every resident has a sense of belonging as being part of one community.

Plans and a strategy to make these outcomes happen started in 2011 and as we move forward into 2012, meetings, communication and participation by all the relevant stakeholders is happening. But we need everyone in the community on board. Start out by ensuring that you are a member of the PRRA by downloading a member application form from our website: Click Here

Welcome to the Paulshof Community Website

A warm welcome from the Paulshof Residents and Ratepayers Association (PRRA) to our residents and to visitors to Paulshof. We are proud to unveil our new website and with this, aim to attract more people to the site and importantly bring the community closer together. It’s also our way of communicating what the PRRA is all about, what our role is, what we are doing to improve our area, security issues, what is happening in and around Paulshof and much more.

It’s also a forum for you to communicate with us. Everyone can contribute to building a strong community, so we encourage you to make contact with the PRRA via the website. Give us your views and opinions, help us with projects, propose solutions to problem areas, and let’s all work together to create a friendly, safe, attractive and sought-after neighbourhood.

PRRA Workshop held and Committee reorganised

On the 12th of November, the PRRA under the leadership of our chairman, Brydal Martin, held a workshop to which existing members as well as residents, that expressed a willingness to get involved in assisting the PRRA, were invited.

In the PRRA’s quest to have a well-structured committee comprising enthusiastic residents who are willing to roll up their sleeves and make a difference to the area, the PRRA reorganised the existing committee welcoming a number of new faces.

The purpose of the workshop was to:

• Formulate a 5-year vision;
• Set up a workable structure to achieve this vision; and
• Address issues such as the environment, the Rivonia Recreation Club, our present Constitution, PRRA membership, membership fees and next year‘s AGM.

This information will be communicated in the coming weeks.

How to become a member of the PRRA

The PRRA committee is on a membership drive with the aim to get on board as many residents as possible. Becoming a member of the Paulshof Residents and Ratepayers Association has a number of benefits such as:

• Giving you as a resident or business owner a voice in the community whereby you can vote on important issues at the AGM or SGM and have a say on who represents you on the PRRA committee.
• There are other community benefits in the pipeline for 2012 - such as discounts for membership fees at local recreation clubs and access to social and business networks.
