Mayor’s Foreword The IDP document remains the basic and critical planning instrument available for the implementation of the municipal strategic objectives and forming the basis for intergovernmental coordination and programme implementation. It is necessary that on an on-going basis our people and institutions of democratic local governance continue to review and improve this plan in order to ensure that over and over the period of its implementation, we continue to improve the critical performance as we mark the critical milestones that we have aimed to achieve during relevant period as a direct result of cooperative governance and democratic community participation. We can mention in the context that the application of the IDP document in the preceding financial year has seen marked improvements in various community infrastructure and programme implementation processes that we have rolled-out as a municipality. We are proud in that respect to report that our communities continue to benefit immensely from the implementation of the various projects and programmes as outlined in our annual report for the relevant period. But is has to be emphasized that the biggest benefit of our communities has been the knowledge that the implemented initiatives have come about as direct result of their participation and contribution. We concede however that not all of the aspirations that were outlined in the previous IDP document have been implemented. According to this 2017/18 Draft IDP embodies by and large most of the ongoing programmes and projects that re-carried-over from the previous document. We are particularly emboldened in our drive by the fact that most of the community aspirations that are reflected in the document were also addressed in our election manifesto. 6 Moretele Local Municipality: IDP Draft 2017 - 2021 This makes it even more relevant to the goals that we seek to advance as a local authority in a nutshell, this IDP document embodies our resolute commitment to the development mandate that our people have entrusted upon us. We are encouraged by the support that we are noticing from sector partners especially our District Municipality, Cogta, Office of the Premier, our stakeholders around our municipality and many other sector formations who remain critical players in the attainment of the goals that we have set-out to achieve through this document. It is in the main the cooperation and support of our sector partners and communities that continue to encourage us to work with added speed to ensure that everything necessary is done to secure the attainment of the goals that we have been mandated to achieve. ____________________________ Cllr Makinta Andries Monaheng Mayor 7 Moretele Local Municipality: IDP Draft 2017 - 2021 ii. Overview by the Accounting Officer A wise man once said “If you are familiar with the beginning, the end will not give you trouble” The IDP for Moretele Local Municipality is greater than just a document that we are legally required to draft every five years. It provides us with a roadmap that must enable us to deliver services to our people. This must continue to motivate our communities to rise and escape the trap of poverty and unemployment by being empowered to do things for themselves. In compiling this IDP, we aimed to interact with as many stakeholders as possible. At many public consultation meetings, the people came out in their numbers to point out their needs in defined priorities. We now know what each of our constituencies need and must be delivered to them in the most equitable and cost effective way as required. These needs ranges from water, sanitation, electricity, roads as well as recreational amenities. Through the delivery of these needs to our communities, lives will be transformed, dignity will be restored and our communities will attain better life in a safe and secure environment. We commit to deliver these needs to our communities in the most available practical manner. Throughout our effort in executing this mandate, we will ensure that the available resources are used thoughtfully and without waste. Our determination to avoid unnecessary cost will be guarded and monitored through deliberate measures not to acquire Unauthorized, Irregular and Fruitless infections. Let me take this opportunity to convey our gratitude to the Council that presided over the past five years. It would be a great injustice if I didn’t pass my appreciation for the role they played in bringing us to where we are today. Our appreciation goes to our supportive traditional leadership through the entire process plan. We really pick each other’s teeth with all our chiefs and their councils, and this makes our lives much easier. I finally wish to acknowledge the work done by the current Council, Ward Committees, CDW’s and other Council Committees such as MPAC, Audit and Risk Committees. Guided by legislation and all other strategic considerations within Bokone Bophirima Province, the 2016 – 2021 Moretele Local Municipality IDP will ensure the achievement of our long term vision and outcome. “PEACE, RAIN AND PROSPERITY!!” 8 Moretele Local Municipality: IDP Draft 2017 - 2021 1. Introduction The new developmental local system which came into operation after the 2000 local government elections continues to evolve and the shape the development discourse as envisaged by the Local Government White Paper of 1998. The 5th municipal administration is expected to improve on the development trajectory that has been followed by the previous administrations towards a path of hope, growth and sustainability espoused through the Integrated Development Plan (IDP). The 2017 – 2021 serve to commit this administration in terms of its development objectives, goals, strategies and governance systems and processes towards a shared development process, partnerships and participatory democracy. 2. Background The current local government system has to a large extent placed a great deal of responsibility on municipalities who constitute the local sphere of governance.
