I live in BeyersPark, I’m studying and the constant power outages are absolutely frustrating and UNFAIR.

Fatima Hoosen (BeyersPark, 2021-02-05)

We cannot continue to pay for services we are not receiving. Our neighbourhood has deteriorated drastically over the last ten years. Our appliances and freezer consumables cannot withstand power outages for days. We understand its a national problem, but our neighbourhood bared the brunt of the inability to manage our town

Yvonne Van Schalkwyk (Boksburg , 2021-02-05)

I'm been affected by this at home and at work. I'm also studying online. Just not to be able to plan your day or evening.

Service delivery in Boksburg and specifically Beyerspark is extremely poor. Constant electricity outages, massive potholes in every street, Street lights not working and resulting in a increase in crime. This is unacceptable given my tax, levies and rates I pay every month with NO positive results. This has to stop and accountability taken by the people in the pound seats, earnings salaries for not doing their jobs!

William Kaspersen (Boksburg, 2021-02-05)

I live in the affected area and I am tired of the absolute incompetance of the management of the city.

Mark Meiring (Boksburg, 2021-02-05)

I am sick and tired of the regular cable theft and breakdowns of the system , if nothing is done then we should stop paying for services we do not receive and switch to solar

Please get the infrastructure of electricity sorted out. Ee pay our taxes but still everything around us is falling apart.

Marietjie Robbetze (Boksburg, 2021-02-05)

#40

If it is not Eskom loadshedding, cable theft, it is no electricity due to non maintained infrastructure. This is truly a concern as life planning is a challenge. Yet the account does not seem to become less due to these interruptions.!!!!!!

Rose Scott (Bardene ext 2 Boksburg, 2021-02-05)

#43

Sick and tired of the continued problems we face in SA these power cuts are damaging our electrical appliances which we have to replace at high prices but all the money that is stolen is ok but there is no money to pay for updated electricity equipment while others live on stolen electricity but that is ok we pay for our electricity and dont get the service we deserve this stinks.

Terry Fourie (Boksburg , 2021-02-05)

Im signing this petition due to contantly sitting without electricity. Im a working during the day and studying in the evenings. Most evenings we dont have electricity and making studying difficult. This also affects my test days which I can not submitt my tests due to power failures. Studying is expensive and missing tests are throwing money into the water.

I’m sick and tired of the ANC’s incompetence, looting and just stealing this country blind, and the MINORITY tax payer must just keep on paying. The anc could not even maintain what they inherited, after 26 years they have nothing to show for it 🤬🤬🤬

#56

The continuous power outage in Bardene is not acceptable as we are a community that's committed to Ekurhuleni with our rates and taxes. We sit without power for hours to a point that our meat spoils and this is money down the drain for us yet we expected to pay Ekurhuleni on time or else we get disconnected.

Reneshia Yende (Bardene , 2021-02-05)

#60

Just sick and tired of struggling with this no power issue. Trying to keep a business afloat in these times without the added challenges is enough of an irritation and frustration.

Elaine Evans (Boksburg, 2021-02-05)

I pay rates & taxes for a better service than what I’m currently receiving
The power outages in Bardene are now at ridiculous levels & this is is unacceptable

Riaan Horn (Boksburh, 2021-02-05)

#65

I'm sick and tired of absolutely no service delivery from our municipality. We have constant power and cable problems but no solution is ever found. People have faulty prepaid electrical meters but there is no stock to replace them. Living in this city is an absolute joke and our Mayor is the biggest joke as he thinks there is nothing major wrong with no service delivery thatvwe all pay for.

Ursula Spennato (Boksburg, 2021-02-05)

#68

Sick of trying to run a business without electricity.

Maryann Lailvaux (Boksburg, 2021-02-05)

I am tired of our elderly mom that is blind, not having power during the day. We pay rates and taxes and our water bill yet nothing happens to resolve the electricity problems.

Eugene van der Merwe (Beyerspark, Boksburg, 2021-02-05)

#77

I’m sign because I’m tired of the endless stories and lies , theft and corruption within this town ! Enough is enough!

Garren Kenny (Boksburg, 2021-02-05)

#78

As it is with the current Covid-19 status and with most of us having to work from home, it is a major inconvenience to have these constant power outages which last anywhere from 2 hours to 10 hours at a frequency just about weekly.
We understand that certain events and circumstances are difficult to avoid (such as theft or damage to cables due to time, etc), but at the very least we deserve clear communication so that we know what the problem is and when we could expect it to be resolved, so we can plan accordingly. Yet time and time again we are left, literally and figuratively, in the dark.

Lauren Benn (Boksburg, 2021-02-05)

#79

I am signing this petition because of the lack of reliable electricity in our area constant outages.

Catharina Rudman (Boksburg , 2021-02-05)

I'm fedup paying expensive rates for dilapidated services and the mayor and the council don't give a damn about the residents and shrugs it off because it doesn't influence their lives like i does ours...

Ydre Van Graan (Beyerspark Boksburg, 2021-02-05)

As a pensioner I'm finding it very expensive to buy electricity and then also have to buy petrol for a generator.

Mavis de Rouwe (Boksburg , 2021-02-05)

Im signing up because we are sick and tired of the excuses as to the disruption of our electricity

Winifred Goosen (Boksburg , 2021-02-05)

#100

This cannot carry on. It has to be attended to ASAP . Am I going to get my fridge replaced ? Food ? My daughter has lost her income she teaches on line. Are we going to be reimbursed ? And augment for a generator 😡

Marie-Anne Chantal Marmol (Boksburg , 2021-02-05)

#101

Weve been having load reduction almost everyday , because of the faults on the cable feeders that the municipality apparently wont fix...
What the hell do we pay rates n taxes for....
Please sort this nonsense out. Having no electricity for over 5 hours in a day is ridiculous... Especially when we are working from home and theres no electricity.! Dont only limit the audit and maintenance to the feeder cables. But also to the mini sub station that the councillor mentioned needs to be replaced and other infrastructure.!!!! Plan for that before we have a disaster !
Another thing that needs to be addressed , is that Eskom implements load shedding. And wants tariff increases soon. And we just expected to pay happily for a horrible service !!!

Farzana Dawood (Boksburg, 2021-02-05)

#103

I'm signing this petion because I am frustrated with the service delivery. We are paying our rates & taxes and get bad service in return. This is unacceptable.

Gerhard Nienaber (Boksburg, 2021-02-05)

#104

I am signing this petition as for more than 5 years we have been sitting with continued cable faults, theft and other electrical failures issues.

Everytime costing us and the body corporate thousands of rands in damages, repairs and money lost.

I have personally had a meeting with our fellow trustees at the time with the electrical depo of boksburg, with engineers and council to address this issue with no satisfaction even though we where promised that council will be installing various of anti-theft measures along with continued upgrades.

Therefore, even though this is entirely for a different ward, I stand with them United in the fact that council must assist in curbing this continuous power failures and fix this determination of infrastructure.

Stefan van Rensburg (Boksburg, 2021-02-05)

Living in Eros Street. Been without electricity sooooo many times due to cable theft and maintenance on feeder cables. Seems like we are targeted the most. Running a business from home. I am considering an inverter because I can not rely on the municipality for power supply. Something needs to be done drastically. This is no good quality of life. WE HAD ENOUGH OF THIS POOR SERVICE!!!!

Rene Stegmann (Boksburg, 2021-02-05)

We are forever without electricity. My income depends on it. Why allways Eros street and surrounding areas? We have been targeted the most over the past few years. Enough is enough

I've had enough of the municipality using our rates and taxes on non essentials, Eg. Overstuffed salaries, fancy cars,personal security, burseries etc and not doing anything for the people who are footing the bill.

#118

I live in Bardene and we must be in the worst electrical grid in Gauteng. If it's not cables being stolen then it is maintenance issues. This week alone I spent R700 on petrol for our generator just to keep our food from spoiling

Magda Landman Snyman (Boksburg North, 2021-02-06)

#126

I feel that Ekurhuleni Metro Council are failing to address issues that affect the very same ratepayers who are paying dearly for services but are not receiving value in return. The council is negligent in the commission of duties imposed upon it by legislation.

Brendan Adams (Boksburg, 2021-02-06)

#137

Moved to Boksburg 3 years ago and the amount of time without electricity is beyond ridiculous - from weekly cable theft to consistent poorly maintained infrastructure this has to be one of the worst suburbs to live and work in!
It is disgusting that we all law abiding citizens pay our monthly rates & taxes, water and electricity and service delivery is a joke!!!
When you complain directly you are told that this is to show us paying suburbians (they actually used ‘you whites’ what it is like for us to have lived without power for years in the locations!! 🤬🤬🤬

Linda Pretorius (Boksburg, Gauteng, 2021-02-06)

Tanya Parsons (Boksburg, 2021-02-06)

#150

We are already under strain with loadshedding being implemented regularly in Boksburg but residents in Bardene and Beyerspark must also bear the inconvenience when cables are stolen constantly as well as infrastructure which is not properly maintained. We pay huge amounts every month for very poor service delivery.

Susan Nel (Boksburg, 2021-02-06)
