Its unsafe as I can not see who is making a noise in the street. Even if there is a curfew, criminals are still moving around!

Willem Sander (Alberton , 2021-02-05)

I am sick and tired of living in the dark and wondering who is walking around in our streets. Come home and it's pitch dark. I have reported this numerous times. Absolutely NO response. Our country is so unsafe, yet ekurhuleni seems it fit to ignore our street lights out complaints. We should be able to sue ekurhuleni if any harm comes to us

Service delivery is important! We pay our water and lights and rates and taxes monthly without fail but simple operations like working street lights or refuse collection are passed over as "not a priority"! Street lights are simple and effective in over protection when arriving home in the evening and helping people see their gates opening!

Oscar von Platen (Alberton, 2021-02-07)

NFi. Actually.
These polidicktions all work against each other and forget how they got into public office.
They need to leave their ego outside and fix this deflective management style. The nouveau colonialists are entrenching their presence and our idiot minions are bitchslapping each other like hysterical ponces.

Our street lights are either totally non- operational, or burning all day wasting energy! Without working street lights at night, crime will go wild. We need a friendly bright atmosphere at night! Thank you

Barend Du Plessis (Kempton Park, 2021-02-09)

#866

Crime is high and street lights help by increasing visibility. Therefore all street lights should be in working order. That's what rates and taxes are for

Angeliki Del Castello (Alberton, 2021-02-09)

#867

I am signing because our lives are at risk as street is very dark. We pay for the street lights and we do not get the service. Why paying for Rates and Taxes with no Street Lights. We did not get any discount and the lights have been out for almost a year if not longer.

Heleen Ten Napel (Lambton Germiston, 2021-02-09)

Safety is a major problem in Alberton and obviously of no concern to the people appointed to see to this

Elsie Weyers (Alberton , 2021-02-11)

#887

I’m signing because municipality is under performing. We pay rates each and month but they fail to do their. We all go to work every day. So why the municipality employees are get paid for not doing their jobs and why we have to paid for the service that was not rendered? The grass is long on the public areas, the rubbish bin not collected in time or not even collected some days, the street lights not working, parks dirty and long grass, illegal dumping in most of our streets, not getting our municipality statements, just to mention a few. Municipality services is disgusting, it’s not now during lockdown as they say but this bad service has been there for a very long time.

John Thobela (Germiston , 2021-02-11)

The street lights running on the main road off the R21 Freeway towards Germiston and Bedfordview using Edenvale Road, AG De Witt and North Reef Road have constantly been inactive since the World Cup. This is a persistent problem along with the road that has been half completed on North Reef Road. It needs to be resolved. Cmon Ekhurleni! We pay full in rates & taxes not for half jobs completed.

Shaheed Hadjee (Bedfordview , 2021-02-11)

To say that during lockdown this is not a priority is rubbish. Rates and taxes are still being demanded and paid. Will the residents get a rwbate on their bills?. NO.
