Ramothwala commended the management of the municipality for implementing resolutions of the Council. She said Council would continue to provide all the necessary support to the administration to deliver quality services to the communities.

Freedom Mthetwa, the Director for Electrical Engineering, said, "We have ageing infrastructure and an ageing fleet which impact services delivering. Mthetwa said that the shortage of vehicles due to breakdownsmeant that electricians had to work shifts because they shared vehicles. Mthetwa said," This is the first batch of vehicles we received. It is not the last. We want to revamp the entire fleet to bring in suitable vehicles to deliver quality services".
