The recent taxi strike that impacted Cape Town, George and parts of the Western Cape has brought into sharp focus the role of community safety operations at local government level. The City of Cape Town has progressively improved their operational capacity of their traffic, law enforcement and emergency services.

In George, we are also ramping up these services to ensure a safe environment for our citizens. As we continue our implementation of upgrading in technology, CCTV cameras and the control room, we experience the benefits. In due course, the staffing complement will also grow.

The Council has consciously decided to spend more of the revenue generated from the Rates account on safety in protecting municipal assets and our communities. The Rates revenue funds a variety of services outside of the core services, as are mentioned below.
The maintenance and upgrading of streets and stormwater systems receives ongoing attention according to planned maintenance guidelines. Additional funding will be required to be spent once the construction on the large basic services infrastructure projects have reached completion stages. The cleaning of streets and the upkeep of parks are visible examples of Rates funded services.

An example of where George will play a facilitating role is in providing access to leisure time activities for our youth. This is one of the needs identified in the Planet Youth survey of youths in grade 8 and 9 to analyse the risks and harms that they encounter outside of school hours. The project objective is to improve their health and wellness over the years. Similarly, we provide facilities and assistance in the promotion of community sport, vegetable gardens, soup kitchens and to relieve the plight of under-privileged citizens.
The work we undertake to promote economic development and tourism is also funded through Rates revenue.

Following the devastating effect of loadshedding in the 2022/23 financial year which reduced Electricity revenue by R214m (or 22% of budgeted revenue from Electricity), the contribution from Electricity to the Rates account had effectively disappeared. After Council had approved reduced budgeted operational expenditure for 2023/24, where practicable, across all services, there remained a shortfall. To ensure that municipal services funded through the Rates Account could be maintained at the high standard expected by customers, an above inflation increase in property rates was implemented.

For the 2023/24 financial year, the new municipal property valuations have been implemented. A recent StatsSA survey has shown that residential selling prices for property in the Western Cape (and George) have risen markedly relative to the rest of the country, with valuations following that trend. To soften the increases a reduction of 28,8% has been applied to the rate in the Rand for residential property rates.

Watch

Municipal Plant of the Month – Inkberry or Cestrum: Cestrum laevigatum, C. aurantiacum, C. elegans = C.purpureum (crimson/yellow/pink Cestrum).

An evergreen shrub or tree growing 1- 4 m high but reaching 15 m or more in the coastal regions. The leaves are lance-shaped, 150 mm long and 50 mm wide and release an unpleasant smell when crushed. This poisonous plant has lance-shaped leaves and small greenish-yellow, tube-shaped flowers, which appear from October to May. The fruit is a green, 10 mm long berry which turns purple-black.

Its invasive status is Category 1b invader and must be removed. It is a habitat transformer as it competes with indigenous plants. The entire plant is poisonous.

Impact: Great adapter and seed disperser (up to 350 000 per year). It produces numerous root suckers and sprouts vigorously from cut stumps and root fragments. Secretion from roots and bark can cause an allergic skin reaction.

Control: Cut down and treat cut stems with Kaput. Cutting without poisoning encourages coppicing. Carefully uproot young plants to ensure complete removal of rhizomes. Rot or dry out before throwing it on the compost heap. Follow-up regularly to guard against re-growth.
