The IDP serves as a tool for transforming local governments towards facilitation and management of development within their areas of jurisdiction. The MSA identifies the IDP as the vehicle to be used in the achievement of these goal In conforming to the Act‘s requirements the Joe Morolong Local Municipal Council has delegated the authority to the Municipal Manager to prepare the IDP. The Municipal Finance Management Act (Act no. 56 of 2003) secures sound and sustainable management of the financial affairs of the municipality and other institutions in the local spheres of government. It does this by ensuring that its developmental programmes are aligned to its budget, and in so doing Joe Morolong Local Municipality, through its integrated development planning process, therefore delivers in accordance with the community needs and priorities, whilst committing to the budgetary programmes as enacted by the Auditor- General. Joe Morolong Local Municipality‘s commitment to developing a ―caring and livable municipality‘ is the focal point of the 2018/19 IDP, with a specific emphasis on the alignment of the Municipal Vision, strategy and implementation, while focus on building a more inclusive developmental local government that translate the Municipality‘s vision into action. It is important to be mindful of the need for alignment with all National, Provincial and Local Government imperatives. The IDP is not only a local government programme but the delivery plan of entire government in a particular local space. The 2018/19 IDP is prepared against the background of the objective of the Joe Morolong Local Municipality, which is in line with the government‘s aim of addressing the triple challenges of poverty, inequality and unemployment in the country. It is the time to review the progress and to strengthen the achievements of government by working together with local communities, labour, business, religious, youth and other stakeholders. I trust that this IDP will serve to stimulate and synergize our partnership with our colleagues in government, the people of Joe Morolong and all those who live, for better cooperation and working together in order to achieve more. 5 This year, we celebrate the 100th anniversary of the birth of one of the greatest leaders this country, this continent and the world has known – Isithwalandwe Seaparankoe Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela. We shall renew our focus on comrade Mandela’s vision of a non-racial society in which the social and economic barriers that have separated black from white are torn down. We shall redouble our efforts to build a society in which black poverty and white privilege are consigned to the past, replaced by respect, solidarity and non-racial equality. We shall place at the top of our agenda Madiba’s vision of a non-sexist society in which the oppression and exploitation of women – whether in the workplace, in communities or in the home – is eradicated. We shall work to rekindle Madiba’s vision of a democratic society in which all citizens have equal opportunity to determine their own destiny. We shall achieve this not only through strengthening the instruments of representative and participatory democracy; but also by ensuring that people have economic opportunities and the ability to make choices about their own lives. We shall work to strengthen organs of civil society, including street committees and other community-based organizations, understanding that they provide the means through which people can participate fully in changing their lives for the better. In closing, I would like to thank community members and Council Members for their commitment in realizing the goals of improving lives of our people. Furthermore, I would like to thank the Accounting Officer and His Team who, in spite of all our challenges, remains committed in their endeavour of moving Joe Morolong Local Municipality forward. 6 MUNICIPAL MANAGER’S OVERVIEW The 2018/2019 IDP, as the strategic planning instrument that guides development planning in a municipal area remains significant for Joe Morolong Local Municipality‘s Development Agenda. The document endeavors to reflect the priorities of Council which are informed by the needs of its citizens. The statistical information as published by STATS SA, showed us how much the population of Joe Morolong Community has declined over the years. The changes that Joe Morolong has seen over the last few years, in terms of population size, education level and income levels meant that we had to review our development plans to address the ever changing needs of our communities. These new challenges and renewed priorities were identified during a public participation process with the broader Joe Morolong Community. This plan will also be used to guide the institutional renewal in response to the changing trends and patterns of developmental needs and issues pertaining to spatial/land use. It will also afford the Municipality an opportunity to review its past experiences and successes to re-configure its strategies in order address previous challenges. As the municipal administration, it is our responsibility and obligation to fulfil tasks that have been assigned to us by Council, mainly, to create an enabling environment that supports local economic development and to design systems that will accelerate service delivery in the most efficient and sustainable manner. Sound municipal administration processes, systems and procedures are a central focus of institutional transformation and organizational development. Emphasis will be placed on improving revenue collection, identifying new growth paths/areas, rapidly responding to matters that require urgent intervention i.e. the supply of clean water to all the areas in our jurisdiction and handling of public enquiries and complaints. It is clear that Joe Morolong Local Municipality has achieved major success during the past year – in many instances under very difficult circumstances. There were many lessons to be learnt along the road. The Municipality is, however, now much better equipped and geared towards service delivery than before. Ultimately, we will address these challenges through sustainable partnerships with our society partners who will play a pivotal role in realizing our strategic programmes and projects. Highlights that the Municipality must strive to sustain during the 2017/22 circle: Achievement of a better audit status; Strengthening the Performance management culture within the organization 7 The following issues remain a huge challenge for the Joe Morolong Local Municipality. Huge service delivery and backlog challenges Maintenance of aging infrastructure, Poverty, Unemployment and low economic growth, Rural Development and support to vulnerable group Informed by the priority needs of the communities, this IDP is geared towards improving the quality of life of the community through a particular focus on the following pillars: Service delivery, access to and levels of servicing; Good governance and administration; LED and job creation; Environmental and health issues; and Land use, urban integration and linkages.
