Sadly we have to take leave of Dr.Barry Smith who has served as CIBRA chairman for many years, and also acted on the Urban Conservation Panel. Barry decided to retire to spend time writing a book. Barry is a legend in music circles in Cape Town and he was presented with a gift of appreciation from CIBRA at the AGM social held at the Gardens Bowls Club in May 2021.

Ward Councillor for Ward 77
Brandon Golding - Ward 77 Brandon.golding@capetown.gov.za Mobile: 082 565 0828
I was born and raised in Cape Town. I have lived in the City Bowl for 12 years and have been an active member of the DA for 7 of those years. Besides political activity, I am one of the founder members of the Gardens Neighbourhood Watch and through this involvement have been an active member of The Cape Town Community Policing Forum for about 8 years, having served as both the Chairperson and the Cluster Chairperson, which extended my responsibility from Camps Bay to Langa.
I have previously worked as a business process engineer and software architect, but will now focus on the role of Ward Councillor.
I believe that active citizenry enables better governance. I therefore encourage all residents to engage with civic structures such as CIBRA so that their voice may be heard and so that the elected public representative may better serve their communities.
