Members of the Ekurhuleni metropolitan police department security and loss control unit have impounded two municipal vehicles in Kempton Park and Thembisa after misuse by Ekurhuleni employees.
During his presentation of the municipality’s 2023/23 financial year budget on Thursday, the MMC said the City of Ekurhuleni must implement ways to reduce its dependence on Eskom to keep the lights on.
Ekurhuleni Finance MMC Nkululeko Dunga promised a dedicated pothole repair team would be established and regular road maintenance schedules would be strictly adhered to.
A large portion of the budget has been allocated to various service delivery needs, with some funds being directed to mitigating the effects of the country’s energy crisis.
