The Western Cape Government has called for cooperation between all spheres of government to resolve the service delivery crisis in Knysna.
It is reported that the
municipality has experienced several service delivery challenges recently that
include lack of water delivery and refuse removal.
The provincial
government says the Knysna Municipality must take responsibility for the
service delivery failures.
Premier Alan Winde says
must work with the province to resolve the challenges.
“If the municipality
does not adopt this recovery plan, the WCG will consider initiating an
intervention in the municipality under section 139 of the Constitution, but our
fervent hope is that the municipality works with us. I am particularly
concerned about the potential disaster that is developing around safe drinking
water, sewage and refuse management,” said Premier Winde.
