Linden Court residents say ongoing leaks and other structural issues are severely affecting their living conditions and posing serious health hazards.

Residents in Lotus River say they have been living with persistent leaks, mould, and structural damage in their flats for years, with no lasting repairs despite repeated complaints to the City of Cape Town.

Community members say the situation has left homes increasingly unsafe and unhealthy, especially as winter approaches and heavy rain raises fears of further damage.

Lotus River community leader Nadia Williams said residents have been raising concerns with the City since last year, but the problems remain unresolved and continue to affect daily living conditions.

Williams said the flats have become unsafe and unsuitable for families still living there.
