Kidd’s Beach Ratepayers and Residents Association (KBRRA) is a registered Non-Profit Organisation (NPO) and exists:
to serve as the mouthpiece of the ratepayers and residents of Kidd’s Beach, and to deal with, further, and protect the interests of its members.
Members belong to households who pay annual levies, and which are located in the area between the R72 and the sea, between the Mcantsi and Umlele Rivers, and adjacent farming areas.
A Committee is elected each year at the Annual General Meeting to represent the interests of members. Increasingly, members are volunteering to be part of the solutions to issues in Kidd’s Beach.
Ten years ago, Kidd’s Beach consisted only of the old part of the village – there were about 100 mostly holiday-home dwellings. There are now 1000 (and growing!) dwellings located in “old” Kidd’s Beach and four gated communities.
A key challenge for all who live in Kidd’s Beach is to ensure that any new developments comply with conditions of development approval in respect of the bulk infrastructure capacity, or can be accommodated within the current infrastructure capacity. This includes the need for construction of additional water supply infrastructure, and increased capacity of wastewater treatment facilities, provision of additional electricity supply and building of roads and streets for expected traffic increases.
In the old part of Kidd’s Beach the provision and proper management of the beachfront facilities and municipal services are key issues for the village.
Some of the key achievements during 2024 have been:
To succeed as a well functioning village, the people of Kidd’s Beach need to be strong, organised and able to hold authorities to account and be in a position to complement inadequate services where necessary.
Kidd’s Beach, being a relatively small and well defined community, is well positioned to present a united front on such matters. Key focus areas for 2025:
Project Management
Financial administration and reporting
Researching and preparation for legal when required
Governance of the NPO
Communication with members of KBRRA
Engagement with the media as and when required
Membership and Administration
Building and maintaining key stakeholder relationships
Governance for the Community Hall and surrounding land
Administration for the Festive Season Holiday Program.
