Approved CRA precinct plan

 

 

A very warm welcome to the Home Page of the Craigpark Residents' Association

We regard the suburbs of Craighall and Craighall Park, established some 100 years ago, and still well known for their convenient location, amenities and quality of residential life, as a very special part of Johannesburg.

A community only thrives, however, if its residents are active in its affairs. The CRA, formed over 45 years ago, plays an extremely important and proactive role in this respect. If you are not already a member, we urge you to become one without delay.

"Communities must take interest in their local affairs because if they do not, they could end up being governed by people who have no interest in their welfare."
Thabo Mokwena, former CEO of SALGA (South African Local Goverment Association)

This web site aims to inform residents and businesses about the area, where to obtain help and information, community services and news on issues and developments that affect us all.

Important development – formation of a City Improvement District (CID). We urge you to familiarise yourself with the processes, plans and benefits for the proposed implementation of a CID for our area.

The CRA’s Community Security Scheme: we cannot afford to be apathetic about crime and the CSS will remain in force for the time being.

Crime remains an unfortunate reality in South Africa today. While our suburbs are not immune from this curse, there many things that we, as a community, can do to reduce crime in our area – look at our updated information pages. If you wish to report an incident to the CRA Security exec, complete the on-line "crime incident" form

Important note: Until further notice the chairmanship will be handled on a monthly revolving basis by CRA executive members. Contact any exec member if you need assistance. 

What they say about the CRA

"Without Residents' Associations generally - and yours in particular - I wouldn't have been able to do my job. Thank you for all the work you put in and for your co-operation with neighbouring RA's and the fine example you set for them." Former Cllr Judy Stockill, Ward 90

As with all CRA activities, this website has been developed by volunteers living in the area. We look forward to your contributions and suggestions. Contact Communications Portfolio holder, Wendy McAllister
