2. ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT SERVICES DEPARTMENT (WASTE MANAGEMENT) REPORT ON THE CURRENT STATUS OF ONDERSTEPOORT LANDFILL SITE AND ITS PROPOSED SHORT TO MEDIUM TERM WASTE DISPOSAL ARRANGEMENT POST CLOSURE PLAN (From the Mayoral Committee Cluster: Infrastructure and Community Services: 13 April 2016 and the Mayoral Committee: 4 May 2016) The purpose of the report is to: 1. Seek approval to close the Onderstepoort landfill site when it reaches its waste
disposal capacity in the course of the 2016/17 financial year. 2. Recommend a medium to long term solution of beneficiating non-recyclable

3. Seek approval for short term measures that will have to be implemented in the
light of the closure of the Onderstepoort landfill site. IT WAS RECOMMENDED (TO THE COUNCIL: 26 MAY 2016): 1. That approval be granted for the closure of the Onderstepoort landfill site
when it reaches its waste disposal capacity during the 2016/17 financial year. 2. That the City commit to a medium to long term solution of beneficiating non-
recyclable waste to produce products that maybe used as a source of primary energy in electricity production as opposed to disposing it at landfill sites.
3. That cognisance be taken of the financial implications, and that through the
budget process, provision be made in the operations budgets of the affected Regions and the Central Waste Division to accommodate the anticipated increased costs of operations as a result of the closure of Onderstepoort landfill site.
4. That approval be granted for the City Manager to:
a. Negotiate disposal rates or purchase agreements with existing private landfill sites depending on the most economic option for the City taking into account a previous City decision of directing all waste from Regions 3 and 4 to the Kwaggasrand facility so as not to undermine the viability of the facility.
21
b. Conclude the appointment process of the Kwaggasrand waste beneficiation facility to receive and process non-recyclable waste.
c. Conclude agreements with private sector partners to invest in
Municipal Recovery Facilities, waste transfer stations or waste beneficiation facilities at Onderstepoort and Temba in the short term and Heathery in the medium term ensuring that any private sector partners or service providers meet Broad Based Black Economic Empowerment requirements and commit to partner with the City in investing in a sector specific Small Micro Medium Enterprise development program.
d. Initiate and support processes of finding offtakers of refuse derived
fuel products that will be produced from the City's refuse, if the Pretoria West procurement process does not result in a solution that will utilize municipal waste as primary energy source.

2. That we support and empower this brigade by providing suitable
buy-back centre in all areas of our City; and that we provide space for them to sort their materials.
3. That we recognise our trolley people as human beings with
personal and social needs, as human beings who need respect and at least a decent place to sleep before they take to the streets before dawn.

of Tshwane Waste Management Strategy.”

G. QUESTIONS OF WHICH NOTICE HAS BEEN GIVEN
QUESTIONS SUBMITTED BY COUNCILLORS IN TERMS OF SECTION 10(1)(b) OF THE RULES AND ORDERS OF THE CITY OF TSHWANE METROPOLITAN MUNICIPALITY: COUNCIL MEETING : 26 MAY 2016 The Speaker indicated that the Office of the Executive Mayor has received a number of questions from Councillors and in terms of the Rules and Orders, answers to these questions will be handed directly to the relevant Councillors or their respective whips.
50
1. QUESTIONS BY CLLR PROF CJ NAPIER
In performing their duties, Tshwane officials and Tshwane contract workers have to enter private property.
1. Is there a policy in place regulating the entry of Tshwane officials to private property?
2. If such a policy exists, does it stipulate the hours during which such entry may
be permitted and the necessity for the presentation of official identification? 3. If not, should not such a policy be devised and implemented to assist officials in
entering private properties in the interests of efficient service delivery and security considerations?
51
2. QUESTIONS BY CLLR H WEBER Numerous times I have asked about the Truck Stop in Bronkhorstspruit Town. There was a plan submitted 6 years ago for a Public Private Partnership to establish such a necessary place. The Municipality in their wisdom undertook to build this using the plans which had been submitted. This was started in about October last year but is still a mess and looks as if it will be another incomplete job which region 7 is subjected to .All the machinery has been taken away so I presume there is no money left to complete the construction.
Set 1. When does the municipality intend finishing this construction which is a total mess and is at one of the entrances to the town?
Set2. Is the Municipality aware of the havoc that these trucks cause in the town? If not, why not? Set3.
In the early hours of Sunday the 16th April one of these huge trucks tried to negotiate a small road destroying a mini-substation leaving the whole town without electricity for several hours. Who is responsible for this damage? We the tax payers? Or the owner of the truck?
Set4.
7 years ago there was a suggestion tabled for a by-law forbidding trucks above 3 tons to come into the town because our roads are being destroyed as well as our storm water drains, traffic signs and pavements. They were forbidden to park in the main road at certain hours, mysteriously these signs are missing? Why is it taking so many years to promulgate such simple by-laws? I have been told for the last 5 years there will be a workshop on by-laws, even the Metro Police are toothless because they do not know what by-laws to implement if any? When will this workshop be held? In the next month, 2 months or when our town has reached a state of no repair?
52
3. QUESTIONS BY CLLR LJ WELMANS
BACKGROUND With regard to the Kameeldrift Road in Kameeldrift, COT Region 5 where street lighting was recently installed and the Gauteng Province MEC for Roads and Transport indicated that it was a COT project.
QUESTION 1
Could the Executive Mayor please indicate which contractor was responsible for the street light installation particularly where the road passes the Poort Primary School?
QUESTION 2
What specifications for the installation were stipulated?
QUESTION 3
Why was no concrete installed around the poles to anchor them and why are the poles situated so close to the road?
QUESTION 4
Was the contractor paid for the installation?
QUESTION 5
Who signed off on the completion of the installation and was the relevant and responsible Department/s satisfied with the work?
QUESTION 6
Were any deviations from the original contract sanctioned and if “yes” why? OUESTION 7 Were any snags identified before sign and if yes were these satisfactorily dealt with the contractor?
53
4. QUESTIONS BY CLLR S MULLER Background: In Ward 82 there are a number of challenges regarding development, the completion of projects and the lack of service delivery. The R 52 Million storm water canal upgrade in Menlo Park is nearing completion, but the final amount has been removed from the IDP. The water network refurbishment project in Maroelana, Alphen Park and Ashlea Gardens has shown on the IDP for 3 years, yet the pipes remain the old pipes which burst regularly and waste millions of liters of water, costing the rate payers in lost water. Development is hampered when basic services are not connected to new development, despite payment for installation of electrical and water connections. This places rental contacts in jeopardy. The C9 system was off line for more than a week, preventing the circulation of reports for comment and finalization, once again holding up development and placing leasing agreements in jeopardy. In a ward with the highest densification on the City, this lack of services provided is hampering the development and densification, and damaging investor confidence. With this in mind will the honorable Mayor please answer the following questions: 1. Why was the final R 4 million of an R 52 Million project on the Menlo Park storm water canal withdrawn for the 2016/17 financial year? 2. When will the funding for the finalization of this phase of the project be made available? 3. Why has the water network in Maroelana, Ashlea Gardens and Alphen Park not been refurbished? 4. When will the water network in the areas in the above question be refurbished? 5. What has been the escalated cost to refurbish this water pipe network since
2012 due to this delay? 6. What is the reason for the lack of progress on the water network refurbishment in these areas? 7. Why has the water connection at erf 157 Lynnwood not been implemented?
Why has the developer waited 2 months after payment of connection fees? 8. The development in Umgazi road Menlo Park/Ashlea Gardens has been delayed due to the C9 system being off line. Has this system been repaired/upgraded to avoid a repeat of this delay? If not why not?
54
9. Officials who are required to comment of such circulated reports within days are taking weeks before commenting. This in turn delays development. What are the time frames for commenting on reports for the following department:
• Roads and storm water
• Water and Sanitation
• Electricity
• Legal department 10. What are the penalties for departments/officials who do not comment within the time frames in the above question?
• Roads and storm water
• Water and Sanitation
• Electricity
• Legal department 11. Why did the electrical connection to the new Vodacom sub-station in The Hillside Lynnwood take 2 years to connect? Has the connection been finalized? 12. Did the developer in question 11 have to buy their own electrical cable, even
after paying the full connection fee which included the cable? If yes, then why?
55
5. QUESTIONS BY CLLR MS SHACKLETON I refer to the City of Tshwane’s Whistle Blowing Policy, adopted by Council on 31 July 2014. 1. Clause 3.3 of the policy states that it aims to “reassure employees that they will be protected from reprisals or victimisation for whisle-blowing in good faith.”
Kindly provide specifics as to how employees are reassured of the above and how they are protected.
2. Clause 9 of the policy states that “this policy will be reviewed on an annual
basis to keep pace with technological and legislative changes that affect it.”
Please advise if the policy has in fact undergone an annual review process since its adoption, and if so, what changes, if any, were made.
3. Kindly indicate as to why the Public Protector is omitted from clause 12.1 of the policy. 4. Please inform writer why time frames are missing from clause 12.4 of the policy, which indicates that the City of Tshwane will write to the complainant. 5. Kindly indicate within what period of time a complainant can expect a written response from the City of Tshwane, since the date of laying their complaint. 6. Please indicate how the Protected Disclosure Coordinator envisaged in clause 13 of the policy is appointed. 7. Is the Protected Disclosure Coordinator an objective, independent, person (i.e. not an employee of the City of Tshwane)? 8. If not, why not? 9. Clause 15.1 of the policy states that “in order for this policy to be sustainable, it must be supported by a structured education, communication and awareness program.”
Please indicate if such a program has in fact taken place, and if so, if it is continuing.
10. If it has not taken place at all, kindly inform writer why not.

(Unaltered)
“This council resolves to review the bylaws on cemeteries and crematoria.”
The Speaker hereafter explained the provisions of Section 19(3) of the Rules and Orders and further indicated that upon investigation by the Office of the Speaker in collaboration with the relevant Department, it was established that the review of the said By-law was already in process.

58
B. MOTION 79: MUNICIPAL ACCOUNTS
MOTION IN TERMS OF SECTION 18 OF THE RULES AND ORDERS OF THE CITY OF TSHWANE METROPOLITAN MUNICIPALITY The Speaker indicated that she had received the following motion from Cllr H Weber, seconded by Cllr MA Ngwenya:
(Unaltered)
“Ever since the merger of Metsweding into the City of Tshwane, many municipal accounts have problems. The problem has been brought to the attention of the Mayor and various MMC's. Questions have been asked and promises made of qualified personnel to be deployed to sort out this outstanding problem.
That Council notes: That residents are sick and tired of the incompetence of some officials. That after 5 years of incorporation into Tshwane many accounts are still not sorted out. Therefore Council resolves that: 1. Competent staff will be available to attend to problematic accounts at times to
be advertised in the local Newspaper. 2. That adequate notification is given before electricity is cut as prescribed by
law. 3. That accounts under dispute will be quickly sorted out and not left for months
and then addressed. 4. That electricity cut off incorrectly be readily reconnected and not left for days. 5. That electricity be read more frequently and not estimated for months. 6. That meter readers be equipped with the proper tools to open meter boxes
and not revert to screw drivers and tire levers thus damaging boxes. 7. That accounts that have been settled not be brought out of the archives and
the same story starts again. 8. That revenue charges be spelt out.”
The Speaker hereafter explained that the Councillor in her motion proposes eight steps that would, in her opinion, enhance service delivery with regards to the City’s management of Municipal Accounts. The Speaker further indicated that following responses by the Acting Group Chief Financial Officer on all proposals, it became evident that the City of Tshwane was indeed adhering to the clear procedures and legislative requirements in addressing the matters.
59
The Speaker furthermore indicated that, given the fact the legal requirements, procedures and policies relating to the management of Municipal Accounts were already in place and adhered to, the approval of this motion would be impractical and therefore disallowed the motion in terms of Section 19(3) of the Rules and Orders.
RESOLVED:
That motion 79 be disallowed in terms of Section 19(3) of the Rules and Orders.
