Farms, Private Property, Agricultural Land & Rezoned land• Ground analysis- community sizes.• Differentiate between municipal buckets provided,

sold/transferred/rental/owner provided buckets & built VIP, • Consult Province - DLG • IDP’s • Business Plans• Funding – Capital, MIG, DWAF, (Private PP & Public PP,

Statistics

Owner Built VIP • 9903 identified• 4633 completed• 2750 Community to be relocated to new housing

projects• 1523 units-lack of space to constructExpenditure = R37,2 million

Page 14: Gauteng Department  of  Local Government

General Successesof the projects

• Social acceptance of the system by the community;• An integrated communication strategy, because all the

community stakeholders have come together;• Improved health and hygiene of the community;• Improvement in the lifestyle of the community;• Uplifted the dignity of the community by providing acceptable

and humane sanitation service;• Job creation and skills transferred to the local community and

the economic advancement that took place with the projects;• Averted environmental disaster;• All community households benefited from the project.

Page 15: Gauteng Department  of  Local Government

New Challenges

• An effective maintenance plan and action is required from the municipality in providing an efficient cleaning service for the new installed sanitation systems;

• Intensifying training of local labourers and contractors to an extent where projects are administered and managed within the community thus creating economic advancement;

• More intensified communication is required from the municipality to inform the community to take responsibility and ownership of the new sanitation system for community’s benefit;

• For the municipality to iron out problems affecting the efficient maintenance and service for the new sanitation system; and

• To speed up the process of relocating people

Page 16: Gauteng Department  of  Local Government

New Devlopments

• Water and sanitation strategy for Gauteng-Internal • Water conversation and demand management for 5

local municipalities- DWAF/RWB/DLG• Decentralisation of waste water treatment plants for

Gauteng • SAICE/ SAICA support to municipalities
