“Residents with outstanding municipal accounts whose services have been disconnected must pay 50% of the arrears and enter into a formal payment arrangement to settle the remaining balance over an agreed period. Residents whose services have been disconnected due to accounts being outstanding for over 60 days must visit municipal offices without delay to avoid prolonged service interruptions,” she explained.
She added that residents are encouraged to pay their municipal bills, as prompt payment directly contributes to reliable service delivery and the development of communities.
