Mayoral spokesperson Mabine Seabe holds a media briefing with Group Corporate and Shared Services MMC Leah Knott on Thursday morning.Car rental companies have agreed not to pull more vehicles from the Johannesburg fleet until they meet with City of Johannesburg officials.Avis Fleet has already removed some of its fleet vehicles from the City.

On 16 November, Avis Fleet collected some of its vehicles due to the expiry of the maintenance lease agreement with the City on 31 October. Avis had leased 560 vehicles to the City but took back 19 of its 124 vehicles from the public safety division and 175 of its 306 vehicles from Joburg Water.Knott said the meeting would be about a deviation from the current contract. The deviation would amount to a three-month extension of the expired lease."We are playing open cards with the companies. There are historical issues with compliance, and the companies want assurance they are complying with the law [by extending the lease].
