Statement By City Of Harare SMEs Chairperson On Glenview Area 8 Complex Fire | Full Text
Full statement by the City of Harare SMEs Committee Chairperson, Councillor Denford Ngadziore on the outbreak of another fire at the Glenview Area 8 Furniture Complex on Sunday, 09 October 2022.
Another fire outbreak at Glenview Area 8 complex as thousands of United States Dollars in property destroyed.
As Harare City SMEs Committee Chairperson I am in Glenview Area 8 complex with the local Councillor Charles Chidhagu.
Thousands of properties have been destroyed by the fire. Very soon we are planning to temporarily relocate carpenters from Glenview Area 8 complex to Glenview 1 Home Industry so that the City can replan and redesign the complex to avoid & minimize future fire outbreaks.
Carpenters and Firebrigade have been facing a challenge in putting out the fire because they work with thinners, sawdust, paints and cotton wool.
I am calling upon carpenters and other stakeholders to comply with council so as to avoid future fire outbreaks.
This week we will have stakeholders meeting for a permanent solution towards the perennial fire outbreak at the Complex.
Part of the plan is to put necessary fire hydrants and road access for the Firebrigade inside the complex.
