The City will host virtual public meetings as part of its annual Rates Policy Review process from Monday, 8 February 2021, until 26 February 2021. To adhere to the National Lockdown Covid-19 regulations, the City will host virtual meetings, giving ratepayers the opportunity to engage and provide comments on the current Rates Policy from the comfort and safety of their own homes.
The Municipal Property Rates Act No6 of 2004 (MPRA) gives the City the right to levy property rates; and stipulates that the City adopt a Rates Policy on an annual basis with inputs from ratepayers. Through the public participation process, ratepayers will be get the opportunity to voice their concerns and have their issues heard. This is done to ensure that the process is fair, equitable, and affordable.
Ratepayers will be able to join the scheduled virtual public meetings for the Rates Policy Review process using meeting links, which will be communicated via social media, sms notification, email and other communication platforms. Customers may also log onto the City’s website www.joburg.org.za to obtain the meeting schedule and current 2020/2021 Rates Policy.
