ERMELO – Gert Sibande District Municipality (GSDM) calls upon all interested and concerned parties to scrutinise and comment on the completed and approved Service Delivery and Budget Implementation Plan (SDBIP) of 2021/2022.

Cllr Muzi Chirwa, executive mayor of the district municipality, has approved the SDBIP and performance agreements recently.

According to Mr Cijimpi Absenia Habile, municipal manager of GSDM, the purpose of the SDBIP is to give effect to the Integrated Development Plan and the budget of the municipality.

He said the budget supports the strategic priorities of the municipality.

“The SDBIP serves as a contract between the administration, council, and community expressing the goals and objectives set by the council for the ensuing six months.

“This provides the basis for measuring performance in service delivery against end-of-year targets and implementing the budget,” he said.

For information on where to find the documents and who to contact be sure to read the next edition of the Highvelder newspaper.
