There are many issues The Sedibeng district municipality (ANC-controlled) contains requiring attention such as the continuing crime wave, three local municipalities: Lesedi, Emfuleni (both ANC-controlled) overcrowded houses, illegal immigrants, the new bridge over the and Midvaal (controlled by the DA). In effect, the full proposal weir, the river and several others. – Nancy Eagar involves the dissolution of the Sedibeng district, the enlargement of Chairman Ekurhuleni to the south-east, and the creation of the new metro. Midvaal is a lone blue DA dot in the ANC-dominated province. The DA did win a third of the votes in the province in 2011 but we run the Midvaal local municipality in Gauteng, with 56% of the vote to the ANC's 42%. Midvaal's population is far smaller than Emfuleni's. In the hypothetical new municipality formed by the merger, the DA's share of the vote would drop to just 28%. The case to be made for the creation of a metro (merger or otherwise) is a lot harder than for other re-demarcations.

The submissions and statements from the Sedibeng mayor, Contact Irma on 082 413 6184. Simon Mofokeng, favour the proposed merger.

We assert that expenditures will increase by at least 30% in the Dr. F.J.H. Boonzaaier (BVSc) new municipality, partly to meet the infrastructural and developmental needs of the new metro.

  • The Vaal River Inquiry Provisional Report
    Final Report of the Gauteng Provincial Inquiry Into the Sewage Problem of the Vaal River 17 February 2021 The Vaal Report Executive Summary The South African Human Rights Commission (‘the Commission’) had been alerted to online and print media reports, published during July and August 2018, reporting that raw sewage, from the Emfuleni Local Municipality (‘the Municipality’)’s Rietspruit Waste Water Care and Management Works situated in Vanderbijlpark, the Leewkuil Waste Water Care and Management Works situated in Vereeniging and other areas within the Municipality, had for weeks and months been leaking into and polluting the Vaal River and the Rietspruit. In addition to the raw sewage polluting major and essential bodies of water, the media reports stated, amongst other things, that: the main sewers in Vanderbijlpark were blocked and that raw sewerage was flowing into people’s yards and properties. In September 2018, in order to test the veracity of the media reports, the Commission’s Gauteng Provincial Office conducted an inspection-in-loco at certain sites within the Emfuleni Municipality, and observed: raw sewage flowing in a small stream that cut across the Emfuleni Golf Estate; two burst sewerage pipes on the banks of the Rietspruit that runs through the Emfuleni Municipal area; defective bio-filters at the Rietspruit Waste Water Treatment Works; a clogged sewerage manhole at the Sharpeville Cemetery and children swimming in, and consuming, polluted waters in the area of a school. Having established a prima facie violation of human rights in the Emfuleni Municipality, regarding the flowing of raw, untreated sewage flowing in the streets, homes, graveyards and also flowing into the Vaal River, the Dam, the Barrage and the Rietspruit (referred to collectively as ‘the Vaal’), and acting within its legislative mandate, the Commission established an Inquiry.

  • Regional Spatial Development Framework
    CHAPTER 03: REGIONAL SPATIAL DEVELOPMENT FRAMEWORK Introduction: The Spatial Development Framework (SDF) is a key legislative mechanism that seeks to address the numerous developmental challenges of the District. A number of these challenges considered and interpreted by the SDF include: • Integrating the urban spatial form municipality created under apartheid to separate townships from economic areas; • Addressing the services backlogs for the poorest of the poor and the market-related residential development property boom; • Providing an effective and affordable district-wide public transportation network that takes into account the reliance of the low-income communities on public transport (at a greater relative monthly cost) and conversely, the dependence of middle income communities on private modes; • Balancing and facilitating market and public sector development in an effective and co-ordinated manner; optimising the use of existing resources; • Determining and communicating reasonable and effective development policies and strategies; • Investing in infrastructure in a cost-effective and proactive fashion whilst ensuring that historical backlogs are addressed. The purpose of the SDF is not to infringe upon land rights but to guide future land uses. No proposals in this plan creates any land use right or exempt anyone from his or her obligation in terms of any other act controlling land uses. The maps should be used as a schematic representation of the desired spatial form to be achieved by the in the long term. The Gauteng Spatial

Strong and growing support by sponsors and exhibitors helped create a satisfying variety which made a large part of the roughly 10000 visitors who came from far and wide stay much later than anticipated on both evenings. Stalls numbered well beyond 100 which was much better than the previous show held in 1998. As the Walkerville Agricultural Society is a non profit (Article 21) company, this year's healthy profit gets ploughed back into the 2014 show to the benefit of the whole community. Some events were exceedingly popular and should serve as a measure of the kind of events show goers want and enjoy.
