I am against the Name change. Money is wasted and can be used to fix our parks and broken sewerage system.

There is too many problems in Upington.Especially in Louisvale-Road.Water problem.Roads are in poor conditions.Almost every week there is electricity problems.
They can take that money and spend it on the things that is compulsory in the community.

I’m signing this petition because block 9 has consistently power outages every week, but they want to change the name of a street.

Wasteful expenditure.

Ernest Walker (Upington, 2025-07-21)

I think it is unnecessary…Potholes and basic municipal services are not rendered sufficiently, but money is being spent on road name changes

Jami Wiese (Upington, 2025-07-21)

#1032

This is a waste of valuable resources. There are more than enough new places and streets to name whatever is wanted. Stop wasting money and take care of the people.

Louise Vollgraaff (Upington, 2025-07-21)

It is unnessary to change the name. It was not budgeted for and the money can rather be used to for repair of the roads and upgrade old water pipes

Ansie Liebenberg (Upington, 2025-07-21)

I don't want the main road to have a name change.

Die vergadering van straat name is n vermorsing van geld wat andersins vir ander dringende en agtergeblewinde sake en instandhouding van infrastrukture gebruik kan word. Dit is on oordeelkundig en onbepland en onosel.

Gideon Senekal (Upington, 2025-07-21)

I was born and bred in Upington and Upington will always be my hometown. Why bother with a street name change, which is a very costly exercise?? Rather utilize that money for repair and maintenance work on the town's infrastructure that is really essential.

Daar is n rede hoekom Schroderstraat die naam het. En dis deel van ons geskiedenis. Dit gaan ook te veel kos vir ons dorp en die besighede wat beinvloed word

The money that they want to spend on changing the street names can be put to better use, like infrastructure and job creation

Die naamsveradering teen te staan. Daar is soveel ander probleem areas in die dorp waarop die geld beter gebruik kan word. Riool en oorloop dreine kan sommer die eerste ding wees.

Die naamsverandering van Schroder straat is onnodige geld mors wat beter aangewend kan word om infrastruktuur van Upington op te knap. Ek as belasting betalers is ook gatvol dat my geld verder onnodig gemors word

Rassie Gagiano (Upington, 2025-07-23)

You need to remove all evidence of a demographic, before you can safely exterminate the demographic.

Schroder was nie deel van apartheid nie. Hoekom duins die munisipaliteit heeltyd terug na aparteid. Eerwaarde schroder was n sendeling wat die dorp kom verstig het en het al die plaaslike inwoners wat in die omgewing gewoon het en sluit alle rasse in se beste belange op die hard gedra het.
