APPOINTED just on a year agoby the KZN Government to in-tervene in Umvoti, provincial

administratorMartinSitholehasreleased a progress report onpositive achievements and thelarge amount still needed to beachieved to restore the munici-pality to a fully functional, effi-ciently working entity.The basis of the intervention

was the continuous politicalstruggle in council since Novem-ber 2012, leading to a total col-lapse, with the municipality be-coming unstable and dysfunc-tional as could be seen bynumerous walkouts from coun-cil meetings, the removal of theentire Exco and speaker and re-ported acts of violence at thetown offices.The administrator, on further

investigation, also found highlevel interferencebycouncillors,highly politicized staff, no by-laws processed, no speaker, noExco, nomayor or deputymayorand a number of violations ofvarioussectionsof theLocalGov-ernment Systems Act, as well asthe Finance Management Act.Mr Sithole has now reported

what progress has beenmade interms of National Key Perfor-mance Areas (KPA) of local gov-ernment during the year underthe administration:

“Not much has been achievedin getting governance structuresin place, as no settlement agree-ment has been reached betweenthe conflicting parties,” statesthe administrator.However a draft agreement is

presently under discussion bypartycaucusandpoliticalprinci-pals to obtain political man-dates.A meeting was due to be held

on Monday this week to reviewtheoutcomeof theconsultations.

In preparation for the re-consti-tution of council and its struc-tures, a guideline document hasbeen adopted by council includ-ingnewstandingrulesandorderto curb walk outs, untoward be-haviour in the chamber as well

as regulating meeting proce-dures.These are in the process of be-

ing gazetted as a municipal by-law for enforcement. In order tolimit political interference at theoffices, councillors have beenbanned from “invading officesbelonging to junior staff.”Atotalbanonstaffwearingpo-

litical regalia seems to have lim-ited and curbed acts of violenceand confrontation betweencouncillors and staff accordingto the administrator's update.With regard to public partici-

pationduringtheIDPandbudgetroad show meetings, it wasfoundthatsomewardcommitteemembers (elected in termsof theCOGTA guidelines) were eitherunknown to the community theyrepresented or were not in-volved. Such members havebeen removed from the commit-tees and their vacancies are be-ing filled.In addition, in terms of the or-

ganogram,councilhasapprovedthat thenumberofmunicipalde-partments has been decreasedfrom eight to five to realign thepowers and functions to that ofa localmunicipality, and toverifythe staff in the employ of themu-nicipality.

THEHomehasbeenbattling forfour years to get some form ofrelief for electricity and sanita-tion costs - but to no avail.

For the period 1 July 2013 till30 June 2014, the Home’s elec-tricity and sanitation accountswere R502 174.41. This consti-tutes8%of theHome’sexpendi-ture budget for the same peri-od.

Pleasekeep inmindthat froma total expenditure budget ofR6.3 million per annum, aboutR5 million per annum is spentlocally.TheHomeemploys38perma-

nent staff members, most ofthem recruited locally. TheHome thus supports the localeconomy and contributes to-wards sustainable job creation.

The Home is a safe haven for150 disadvantaged children(100% Black) and our childrenattend local schools. Our chil-dren perform better and staylonger intheschoolsystemthanthe Provincial average.So, Greytown Children’s Homeis also contributing towards ahigher education level for thechildren of our country.Themanysuccess stories over

the past years confirm that theHome is playing a pivotal rolein the raising and education ofresponsible young people forthe future.

For the second school termexaminations, 38 of our ob-tained 83 subject distinctions.

“Greytown Children’s Homeis part of the community ofGreytown for more than 90years.It is therefore rather a shame

that the Umvoti Municipality

has over all these years not rec-ognised the importance of theHome within the communityand supported the Home witha grant or some form of relieffor electricity and sanitationservices.

However the Municipalityhas topayaMunicipalManagermore than R1 million per an-num and the AdministratorR135000.00permonth=R1.62million per annum.

Further lavish provision ismade for entertainment, gath-erings, indaba’s and travelcosts.Then there are themillions lostwith illegal electrical connec-tions and the non-payment ofaccounts. One just has to checkthe budget for 2014/2015 to seehowmuch isbudgeted for itemsthat can be procured at amuchlower cost.

Since 2010 the Home hascontinuously tried to get theUmvoti Municipality on boardfor some form of relief for elec-tricity and sanitation costs. Af-ter a personal meeting with MrMartin Sithole on 25 June 2014with a promise of an answer byno later as 2 July 2014, theHome had a little bit of hope forsome relief, but up to now wehaven’t received any feedback.

Why must innocent childrensufferwhile theUmvotiMunici-pality are spending money onunnecessary items andmunici-pal employees doesn’t recoverelectricity costs from non-pay-ers?

Have aheart and support ourcause!’
