Vuyisile Khen It is indeed both a pledge and honour that this sphere of government, which is at the coalface of service delivery, is entering its second phase of developmental local government. We do the latter with acknowledgement of the challenges we still face ahead, the ones we could not deal with in the first term given our limitation in terms of resources. We are mindful of the millennium goals targets in terms of provision of basic services coupled with the PGDS we need to reach, and we are ready and prepared to deliver with assistance from our sector departments. We further bank on our partnership with private through their investment which aims at creating employment opportunities and growing the local economy.

The proposed development is to set up a Solar Park. The entire study area is underlain by rocks of the Precambrian Transvaal Supergroup and more superficially by late Caeonozoic calcretes of the Kalahari Group. Dolomites of the Transvaal Supergroup are known to contain fossil stromatolites, and there is a slight, but unlikely, possibility that the calcretes of the Kalahari Group could contain fossils of Caenozoic age. In my opinion this development will not negatively affect palaeontological heritage.
