On Tuesday, building materials will be handed out to the 11 people left homeless after a fire razed their Du Noon dwellings on Sunday night.
The blaze started about 9pm in Potsdam Road and destroyed four residences.
Spokesperson for the city’s disaster management, Johan Minnie, said affected residents would be issued with wooden planks and sheets of corrugated iron to help rebuild their homes.
He said they had meanwhile opted to stay with relatives instead of at alternative accommodation offered by the city.
On Monday the affected residents were also given hot meals and blankets.
An operator at the Cape Town Fire Command and Control Centre, who declined to be named, said five fire engines had managed to extinguish the fire within half an hour. She said no one had been reported injured and the cause of the blaze was being investigated. - Cape Times
