The Democratic Alliance in Msunduzi has written to the Municipal Chair of Infrastructure, Mxolisi Mkhize to request immediate attention and action over the prolonged sewer blockages that have plagued communities for years (view letter here).
Despite numerous complaints and promises of action, the municipality has failed to adequately address this crisis.
The consequences of this neglect are dire, residents are exposed to unhealthy and unsanitary conditions, properties are damaged, and the environment is degraded. The DA demands immediate action from the municipality to clear the blocked sewers and prevent future occurrences.
We call on the municipality to:
– Provide a comprehensive plan to address the sewer blockages and prevent future occurrences
– Allocate sufficient resources and personnel to ensure prompt and effective maintenance
– Take responsibility for the crisis
The DA will continue to hold the municipality accountable for their failure to deliver basic services. We demand better for the residents of Msunduzi.
