Projected under-collection of revenue for the 2020/21 financial year (from 1 July 2020 to 30 June 2021) • In order to accommodate the lower collection levels, the 2020/2021 expenditure budget will have to be adjusted downwards. • With the additional Covid-19 costs, it would be extremely challenging, bearing in mind that the normal service delivery levels in all areas will have to be maintained. • Cost containment measures will be implemented, but these shouldn’t result in significant savings as they were already implemented in 2019/2020. • Should grants be appropriated for the revenue projects focus on the collection of revenue, as well as the improvement of lost billing could be addressed.

Relief measures provided to local residents and local businesses • The City has put together an incentive programme which is aimed at assisting residents and businesses during these hard times of Covid-19 pandemic by implementing optional payment holidays. • It further assists in bringing their municipal consumer accounts up to date and incentivise star payers to continue to keep their accounts up to date throughout. • The following options are available for residential and business debtors under the incentive program which will run from June 2020 to November 2020 • ASSISTANCE: • OPTION 1 - Customers that are up to date, but cannot continue to make full payments • OPTION 2 – Customers in arrears (debt not older than 12 months) • OPTION 3 – Customers in arrears (debt older than 12 months) • INCENTIVES / AWARDS: • OPTION 4 - Customers that are up to date and can continue payments • OPTION 5 – Customers that can pay in advance
Relief measures provided to local residents and local businesses OPTION 1: Customers who suddenly find themselves not able to pay their full account can arrange payment holidays as follows: • Payment of 25% of current balance for a 2-month period with no interest incurred or charged on arrears and 3 months to catch up payments • Payment of 50% of current balance for a 4-month period with no interest incurred or charged on arrears and 3 months to catch up payments • Payment of 75% of current balance for a 6-month period with no interest incurred or charged and 3 months to catch up payments
Relief measures provided to local residents and local businesses OPTION 2 : Customers that are in arrears: Debt less than 12 months: • Pay full outstanding capital amount once-off, get 7,5% of payment as credit on account and 100% of interest reversed. • Pay outstanding capital amount in full within 6 months, as well as current balances for the 6 months (thus account up to date within 6 months) and after the sixth payment, 100% of interest levied will be reversed. • If above arrangement exceeds six months, but is within 8 months, then 25% of the interest balance will be written off.
Relief measures provided to local residents and local businesses OPTION 3 : Customers that are in arrears: Debt more than 12 months (Option 2 will be available for the portion of debt below 12 months) • Pay full outstanding capital amount once-off, get 100% of interest reversed OPTION 4 : Customers whose accounts are up to date and can continue with payments: • Pay account in their municipal account full and on time will get 15% of the June to November property rates payment as a credit against their balance. • This will decrease the payment made in December 2020. (limited to R100, 000 per resident).
Relief measures provided to local residents and local businesses OPTION 5 : Customers that are up to date and able to make payments in advance: • Pay the full municipal account in advance for one month and receive 20% discount on property rates and levies for the month paid in advance. • Pay the full municipal account (property rates and levies) in advance for three months and receive 25% discount on rates for the month paid in advance. • Pay the full municipal account in advance for six months and receive 30% discount on rates for the six months paid in advance. It is unlikely that option 5 will have many uptakes, but it would create an upfront cash flow that would benefit the City.
Assistance required from Provincial and National Governments • The additional Covid-19 expenditure for 2019/2020 as well as 2020/2021 has a significant impact on the ability of the City to deliver its mandate. • Additional costs relating to food parcels and homeless plans are expected to amount to at least R850 million. • The City would need R290 million per month to provide food parcels for 500,000 households (the projected number of households in need) • • This was not planned for, and the City thus requests funding to: • Deal with the current year end deficit • Deal with the 2020/2021 budget – the City cannot submit an unfunded budget, and currently due to additional Covid19 costs and further loss of revenue, this will be the case.

Nellmapius Ext 22 “RDP Portion & Mixed Development" • Nellmapius Ext 22 falls under City of Tshwane Electricity Distribution License area. • The township will be supplied from Hatherley 132/11kV Substation. • The area has two portions which are differentiated as RDP Portion and newly formalized area. • Nellmapius Ext 22 (RDP Portion) • The area has 1330 RDP houses and 550 units for Rental Stock. • Provincial Human Settlement Department is responsible for providing internal electricity network. • Information received from Gauteng Human Settlement Department, is that the electrical contractor has been appointed and will assume site. • The City of Tshwane is responsible for verifying and approving electrical reticulation design and provision of bulk electricity. • Design Approval: • The Internal Reticulation design was approved by the City on the 24th of July 2019. • Provision of bulk electricity: • Bulk electricity for supplying Nellmapius which will be supplied from Hatherley substation.
Nellmapius Ext 22 “Newly Formalised Portion” • The City is responsible for electricity bulk and internal reticulation. • The newly formalised portion of Nellmapius Ext 22 has 773 stands. • The contractor has been appointed and commenced with the electrification project in February 2020. • The electrification project is under way and expected to be completed by end of Dec 2020.
Hatherley 132/11kV Substation Project • The substation suffered theft and vandalism over time, and had to be reinstated to its original condition which took sometime. • The reinstatement of the substation took place in parallel with Power Line construction and was completed in March 2020. • Testing, commissioning, synchronization, integration and communication of the substation with the City Grid took place from July 2019 until March 2020. • Substation Switchyard was energized on the 09th of March 2020. • After energizing transformers on the 25th of March 2020, the network was stable and operated normally until the Neutral Earthing Compensator (NEC) exploded which resulted in the switching-off of the transformers and further technical investigation and re-testing. • The date for energizing the substation following the repairs is targeted as end of June 2020.
Conclusion 1. Both Hatherley Power Lines and Hatherley Substation Projects encountered social and technical challenges during their construction period respectively. 2. Gauteng Human Settlements will provide the internal electricity to the RDP Portion and Mixed Development of Nellmapius Ext 22 whereas City of Tshwane electrifies the Newly Formalised Portion. 3. City of Tshwane has approved the electrification designs of the RDP Portion and Mixed Developments, and is supporting the Province as and when necessary on the project. 4. Hatherley 132/11kV 120MVA Substation is planned to be energized at the end of June 2020. 5. The provision of electricity to all Households will be achieved once both Gauteng Human Settlements and City of Tshwane have completed their electrification projects.
GRATITUDE The city of Tshwane is truly grateful for the interest shown by the Parliamentary Portfolio Committee in the work we do and the difficulties of our operational environment. 48
