# Today, over two-thousand-400 families from New Horizon in Pelican Park, will be protesting against the City of Cape Town’s plan to demolish extensions to their RDP houses, to make way for new pavements. Last month, the metro issued a 60-day notice requiring homeowners to obtain formal building plan approval or face possible legal action. As part of the proposed plan to install pavements, all structures extending more than 1.5 metres onto public space must be removed. The residents say the metro’s actions are unjust.
