Apparently it is. But it comes back with a note that it's blocked. Could they have been forewarned I'm on the warpath? Only kidding....

Hi Jenny, they should have a properties division. Is the email address you are trying going into that division?

Cheers,

    Thanks Hannes.   I need help in getting hold of Caltex, they are
    blocking my mail. I will forward the emails to you that I have
    sent to the building inspector and I have copied Marc Turok and
    Stephen Mayers of the Heritage Society, so it would have further
    impact if OBSID could also respond/react to it.  Is there any
    chance you could subtly get some photographs of the area.  I am
    too conspicuous in that area.

        I have found out who owns the Caltex garage site.  It is
        Caltex Oils (Pty) Ltd.  I have an email address as well.  If
        anyone has experience in tackling corporations please let me
        know otherwise I will write and see what I can do.  I have
        also found out who owns the property where the squatter camp
        is in Polo Road.  It is the people who own the first two
        houses in Donne Street.  It is probably best to ask the
        building inspector to deal with this one unless anyone has
        any other suggestions regarding that.

            While we were patrolling the other night, we decided to
            have a look at the old Caltex garage which is on Main
            Road between Rochester and Polo Roads.  I don't know how
            long it has been abandoned now, but there are squatters
            living in the buildings.  I doubt if they have running
            water so one can only imagine what it looks like in
            there.  We also had reports of people sleeping in the
            huge petrol holding tanks which have been removed from
            the ground and are on top.  We found a black male in
            there who had put newspaper on the windows as curtains,
            and he was very aggresive towards us.

            Then walking back down Polo Road, we had another look at
            the little plot wedged between the Caltex garage and the
            first houses on Donne Street from Polo Road side,
            opposite 65 Polo Road as per map below, there is a now
            sizeable squatter camp that has been there over the
            years.  I don't know who owns the property but those
            shacks did not get passed by any building inspector.  I
            might bet on that.

            Diagonally over the road from there,on the corner of Polo
            and Main Roads, is a block of flats above the Duchess
            clothing store.  This block of flats is renowned for drug
            dealers I heard recently.

            I know this is not a crime situation yet but it certainly
            is a fertile breeding ground for one and has the
            potential of another Trump Towers.  Do we want that?
            I don't think so, as of this date, Trump Towers is still
a problem that we don't seem to be able to get rid of. Does anyone have any idea what we can do and how to go
            about it?
