SAPS AND SECTOR POLICING
SAPS is the prime policing force for South Africa and takes the lead in safety, security and crimes issues.
Lt Col Mouton is the Station Commander at Sea Point SAPS.
The Sea Point SAPS station is located at Bay Road/Bill Peters Drive and is open 24/7. The main switchboard number is 021 430 3700. To manage the area more effectively and to meet their responsibility the SAPS area is broken down into Sectors to provide local management and visibility within our community.
Each sector is headed by a Sector Manager – see below.
Every month (except January) the Sector Managers meet with local residents at a joint meeting. These meetings are open to all residing within the Sectors and are chaired by one of the local residents. They provide a regular opportunity for residents to engage with SAPS and fellow community members as well as raise and address issues together.
The monthly meeting is held on the Wednesday before the full CPF meeting in the Board Room of the Sea Point SAPS station at 18.00.
SAPS Sea Point has three Sectors. They are as follows – Sector 1 – Green Point and Moullie Point; Sector 2 – Upper Sea Point and Fresnaye; and Sector 3 – Lower Sea Point and Bantry Bay.
There are two Sector Managers – Sgt Balie to manage Sector 1 and Sgt Pretorius to manage Sectors 2/3. Their respective email addresses are greenpointsector@gmail.com and seapointsector2@gmail.com
