Residents of Region F have urged the City to address the housing backlogs, illegal backyard housing structures, abandoned and derelict buildings and highjacked building in the inner city.
This emerged during the Integrated Development Plan (IDP) consultation meeting for Region F at Joubert Park on Wednesday, 21 April 2021.
“We are concerned that there are people who are on the 96/97 Housing Waiting List and have not been allocated houses. What is the city’s plan in fast-tracking the building of RDP houses? We have been renting for years in backyards and derelict flats with major maintenance and structural issues,” said Yvonne Mohlauli from Ward 123.
The City of Johannesburg is the largest of South Africa’s six metropolitan municipalities. It is one of the fastest-growing urban areas globally and is the epicentre of the national and the subcontinent’s economy. As such, it is consistently the destination of choice for both skilled and unskilled workers from beyond the borders of the province and the country.
The inner city was historically and remains the core economic and business node within Johannesburg, and is complemented by satellite nodes throughout the municipality. It is a city of stark contrasts, and despite the prevalent decline, the potential exists for regeneration, creating an environment for enterprises both large and small, and indeed livelihoods, to flourish.
