Chapters 4 and 5 of the National Veld and Forest Fire Act, 1998 (Act No. 101 of 1998)

Overstrand Municipality hereby notifies Interested and Affected Parties of the intention to burn ageing and overgrown vegetation in Overstrand area as indicated in table 1.

In an effort to reduce the impact of veld fires, Overstrand Fire and Disaster Management in cooperation with Overstrand Environmental Services, embark on a program to reduce fuels loads (aged /overgrown vegetation) with the aim of better managing out of control veld fires and stimulating natural growth succession.

Many residents have asked if the basic usage on a credit meter is at a total cost of X amount, what the same amount of usage will cost on a pre-paid meter.

The municipality renders a consolidated monthly municipal statement (account) to consumers, inclusive of all relevant charges for services as might be applicable to a particular property.

BASIC CHARGE for electricity forms part of the electricity tariff structure, since the costs of service rendering for this service also have a large component representing overheads/fixed costs.

The basic charge must be associated with the fixed costs to render electricity services to the community, inclusive of capital costs for replacement of electricity infrastructure.
