A community meeting was held on Monday (August 13) in Colenso, at the Colenso Club, to discuss the numerous service delivery issues the town faces.
The meeting was called by concerned residents who live in Colenso due to people feeling that their town is being neglected by the municipality.
This has been the second meeting held in the town to keep everyone updated on the problems that confronts them.
The residents also asked IFP councillor Abbas Warasally to attend the meeting so that he can assist in getting all the service delivery problems attended to.
“Since the first meeting held in June many of the problems have been fixed yet there are still outstanding issues that need to be addressed,” said councillor Warasally.

Clr Warasally will pursue the matter with the municipality and hopes to get all the issues solved.
