The vast majority of Cape Town residents have been paying their municipal accounts on time since the introduction of the new rates and tariffs from July 2007.
“We would like to thank the residents for making this possible,” says Chief financial officer Mike Richardson.
Richardson says the step taken by residents ensures that the money is available for service delivery and for investing in much needed new infrastructure and the upgrading of existing infrastructures.
“Generally speaking residents have heeded our massage not to view their rates bill in isolation but to compare only the total municipal account, adds Richardson.
Households with a total monthly income of R1 740 or less per month can apply for the Senior Citizen Rates Rebate as well as R30 indigent grant irrespective of whether they meet the age.
