That the surcharge on tariffs for water usage greater than 20kl applies to all dwellings zoned as household.
That second dwellings be required to follow the prescribed application process before they can be treated as separate units for water tariff purposes.
That it be noted that the water tariff increase will only be applicable for the current financial year (2009/2010) ending 30 June 2010.
That all measures such as the watering of gardens by means of a bucket within the prescribed times and the re-use of household water by consumers to limit consumption, in order to have the minimum impact on bills for water usage be taken.
A copy of the resolution is available for inspection during office hours at the main administrative building of the Municipality, Satellite Offices and Libraries.
The co-operation of all users of municipal water is essential and would be greatly appreciated.
