8200 Informal Houses in Knysna

The Community Services Committee has recommended that Brackenhill’s community (population 389 adults and 116 school-going children) apply for affiliation to the Provincial Library Services so that they can gain a wheelie wagon library. The Knysna Municipality will carry the running costs of the facility but province will pay for the staff post through a grant. Permission will have to be gained from PG Bison who owns the land on which the community live.
