Western Cape MEC of Environmental Affairs
and Development Planning Anton Bredell today said the provincial government is
part of a municipal benchmarking exercise.
Bredell said the benchmark will enable municipalities to put strategic plans in place to ensure financial viability and stability over the short-, medium- and long –term.
Bredell said they have come up with the model
to benchmark municipalities to put certain standards to them and certain
averages.
He adds that it is very difficult when municipalities
are compared to each other that is why they have come up with this model and
this model states that for e.g. an average on salaries according to a total
budget .
“Municipal mangers and mayors will get a
code the code of their municipalities because we don’t want municipalities to be
compared to one another but to rather work towards a set goal or work towards
averages’’ said Bredell
