The City of Cape Town’s R18.5 billion water and sanitation budget for the next three financial years was approved at the council meeting last Wednesday, 31 May.
‘Over the current financial year, we have already seen various key investments being done. While those achievements are recognised and celebrated, we still need to do more,’ said Mayoral Committee Member for Water and Sanitation Councillor Zahid Badroodien. Additionally, the City’s water and sanitation directorate expressed its commitment to providing access to good-quality water and adequate sanitation in informal settlements where possible.Informal settlements
