The City of Ekurhuleni wishes to inform its ratepayers of the closure of council offices between Christmas and New Year.
The Ekurhuleni spokesperson, Mr Themba Gadebe, said all administrative offices, libraries, selected rates halls and pay-points will be closed from 1pm on Friday, December 23, 2016 and will re-open on Monday January 3, 2017.
