CAPE TOWN - Residents of a housing development in Mitchells Plain claim they have been saddled with high water bills and the City of Cape Town is demanding payment.On Sunday, the community said according to an agreement signed when the development was established six years ago, the company - Cape Town Community Housing - was supposed to pay.In 2013, Cape Town Community Housing built hundreds of homes in Harmony Village to provide affordable access to housing in the area.
Sub-council 23 chairperson Elton Jansen said he had not seen the agreement yet but has been receiving complaints from residents. He said the City of Cape Town was in the process of extracting the data in order to deal with the matter. “According to my understanding, Cape Town Community Housing hasn’t been paying the City of Cape Town the water bill and some of the resident haven’t paid the Cape Town Community Housing. There’s a whole mess up in this triangle.”
The company told Eyewitness News residents signed an Instalment Purchase Agreement that stated the electricity and water costs were the responsibility of residents.
