For the past 5 years, NANETTE has owned a Private Residence in 2 Suffolk Street Richmond Hill.
NANETTE estimates the additional monthly maintenance and cleaning costs on this asset, as the result of the manganese ore, to be in the region of R4 000 per month.
The cost of accelerated wear and tear over the life of NANETTE’s asset is estimated to be: House must be cleaned every day, family silver, brass and copper tarnished, classic car getting ruined, therefore employ cleaner 5 days a week. in 5 years since living here both husband and i suffering breathing problems.
NANETTE has this to say about the Manganese Ore pollution from the Port of Port Elizabeth; “An eyesore – makes living in the area filthy – bad for health – a few rich families benefit to determent of the local residents.”
