NO ELECTRICITY IN HARDUSTRIA & CERTAIN INDUSTRIAL AREAS SINCE 04 APRIL 2021 This post contains updates...
LETTER TO THE MUNICIPAL MANAGER - MALUTI-A-PHOFUNG We would like to bring to your attention that 21 households and 1 business (and not counting those businesses operating from home during Covid lockdown) have been without electricity since 01 January 2021 from 19:30 and we received feedback that electricity was restored on 04 January 2021 at 19:54.
The feedback and complaints we received on the progress of the replacement and repairs from the affected residents: UPDATED: 28 DECEMBER 2020 PREVIOUS UPDATE: 26 DECEMBER 2020 NO ELECTRICITY IN MURRAY STREET SINCE FRIDAY 18 DECEMBER 2020 We would like to bring to your urgent attention that 33 and 44 Murray Street has been without electricity since Friday 18 December.
This problem has already been reported to the Electrical Call Center on more than one occasion since Friday. This area is still without electricity and no attempt has been made to do any repairs or to give us any feedback with regards to the problem. Can you please ensure that this problem is repaired before the end of today? Thank you. Regards HIT MANAGEMENT Victoria Street – Repaired A very nasty sewerage spill / blockage at the lower end of town in the field in Victoria Street.  The member who reported this blocked manhole felt so concerned with all the sewerage spilling in the field and the nearby stream which leads to the Wilgeriver that he decided to check it out himself. The repair was really easy. He found a 25L Paint Bucket stuck in the bottom of the manhole, once removed, the sewerage flowed freely down the sewerage line.
Some of our members complained about blocked manholes and sewerage spilling in to their properties, in to streets and, which was not being addressed by our local municipality. The health and environmental risks associated with spilling sewerage is a very big concern to all of us and should always be treated as an urgent matter and be repaired as quick as possible. We notified Maluti-A-Phofung and gave them a reasonable time frame in which to repair and resolve these problems. Upon inspection after the deadline, we found that the municipality did not respond to these complaints. We sent our contractors to unblock and to do any necessary repairs to prevent further sewerage spills and leaks. Repairs done will be for Maluti-A-Phofung Municipality's account. Our first letter to the Municipal Manager at Maluti-A-Phofung   Maluti-A-Phofung has openly admitted that they have no intention of paying Eskom. RESULT: Their FNB bank account is still frozen!
Even though Judge Mhlambi ruled in favour of Maluti-A-Phofung’s appeal against Eskom on 9 October 2020, Eskom managed to swing them of their feet by appealing the ruling and so MAP still finds themselves… Penniless and broke while their cash is still on ice! UPDATED 10 SEPTEMBER 2020: We Are Going To Court / Ons Gaan Hof Toe - SEWERAGE SPILLS - HARRISMITH9/10/2020 It's been longer than a week since the court gave instructions to Maluti-A-Phofung to address and fix our sewerage problems and to date they have done NOTHING! Our Attorneys have responded. Please read on, we have included the lawyer’s letter along with pictures of the sewerage problems we the residents must deal with daily while Maluti-A-Phofung is happy to ignore the problems we have brought to their attention and the very reason why we went to court.

2020/#029 Urgent Repairs and Maintenance Needed - Garvock / Greyling Street & Parks - Harrismith / Intabazwe3/20/2020 We have heard the pleas from our members concerning the state of the road leading from Garvock street on to Greyling Street right up passed the schools all the way to the Green Pavilion. Seeing as it is school holidays this road can be repaired right away.
The parks opposite Harrismith High School haven't been maintained in a really long time. We as also face the same problem around the Intabazwe Multipurpose Centre. These parks must be maintained and cleaned urgently. A letter concerning the repairs of Garvock / Greyling Street up to the Green Pavilion and park maintenance was sent to the manager of Maluti-A-Phofung Municipality today. A letter was sent to the Manager of Maluti-A-Phofung to address the mannerism in which the Section 102 Dispute forms are being handled.
