Petition to Rand Water on Constant Water Outages in Benoni

Comments

#1403

Our basic human right is being taken away and the lack of communication / feedback of the said water outages / restrictions.
• the reasons for the continuing Water shortages throughout Benoni.
• the reasons why Benoni 2 & 3 reservoirs are not filling to their capacity, nor filling at the same rate simultaneously.

We need water to have a hygienic life. Don't want to live like a squatter. We must get what we pay for.

We have had almost no water in the last week and its a basic need that the goverment needs to give its residents

Because I am sure that there is something sinister going on or the negligence is absolutely deliberate

Brenda Robertson (Benoni, 2023-03-22)

I have a toddler and suffer with the water shortages and not being able to bath him and clean myself and my house. This is a necessity of life and just after celebrating human rights day and we don't get simple rights in Benoni and ZERO warning or explanation

Tarryn Lovell (Benoni, 2023-03-22)

#1421

Because I can

Johan De Beer (Benoni, 2023-03-22)

#1427

I’m signing because I’m tired of not having water. What’s next to go? Is there no end to the continued failure of the state? Nothing seems to be working anymore.

Susan Read (Benoni, 2023-03-22)

The water problems are an issue. This is pathetic

Sheree Fraser (Benoni , 2023-03-22)

I am signing this petition as it is my fundamental right as a rates paying resident of Benoni, to have access to clean water supplied by the Ekurhuleni Municipality.

John Beckett (Benoni, 2023-03-22)

#1432

Sick of no water...

Heather McAllister (Benoni, 2023-03-22)

#1433

It's a human right to have drinking water. Schools can't operate and it becomes a risk and health risk for our kids, not to mentioned the eldery that can't cook or bath. I think this is shocking from the ruling party and Rand Water as we've been struggling with constant messages that we have no water and sometimes a drizzle of water for days, weeks, moths on end

Desmond Van Heusden (Benoni, 2023-03-22)

Water has been an issue in the Benoni, specifically Northmead area since the day we moved in more than a year ago. However over the past couple of months the water quality and quantity has become critical. Other than the fact that the loadshedding is affecting the pumps (when Northmead 16 is loadshedding, Northmead 10 do not have water – and shortly after water comes back on, Northmead 10 will be loadshedded) now we hear there are a demand issue.

The comment of “the demand is higher” is surely not true - It is not as if all of a sudden there are more houses. We need to know why the reservoirs and towers are way below 30% on a daily basis. Why aren’t precautions being taken when the levels reach 60%, Why do they wait till the levels are crucial and then water has to be turned off and it takes days / weeks to recover to the 30% mark again.

The quality of water is also very concerning. Time and time again when I brush my teeth or attempt to take a shower (especially when the water has been off for a couple of days), the water colour is BROWN and smells like old dam water. This cannot and is not up to standard and surely not healthy

Jenine van Eeden (Northmead, Benoni, 2023-03-22)

#1436

It is ridiculous being without water for 3 days at time and having outages almost every day

Gavin Robertson (Benoni , 2023-03-22)

#1439

Water outage is against our constitutional and human rights. Corrupt government means money that must be used to maintain basic services is going into politicians' pockets. Why???

Carlene Du Toit (Benoni, 2023-03-22)

#1441

Service delivery sucks in Benoni

Yolanda Colyn (Benoni, 2023-03-22)

#1442

The water cuts have been going on for way too long. The residents can no longer take care of their personal needs , nor take
care of their household obligations due to the water shortage. Please investigate the cause and rectify soonest.

Linda Vial (Benoni, 2023-03-22)

#1443

We are currently facing illness l, as we are not able to flush toilets, bathing out of a swimming pool.
This needs to end as we have a right to water. Strange how we dont have water for 3 quarters of a month but every month have a bigger water bill!! Fix this shit!!

I am tired of this lack of water issues. Surely Rand Water can sort out an issue without it taking months to identify the issue.

Dale Vermeulen (Benoni, 2023-03-22)

I’m am tired of the water outages in my city with excuse after excuse as to why water which we have a right to have and which is paid for is not provided.

Matheus van der Wende (Benoni , 2023-03-22)

We have very low water pressure and some days no water. Why am I paying tax and rates if I have no service?

I am tired of not having water that is a basic human right. It is one thing to have to buy water to drink but it doesn't help with showers and getting school and work clothes clean.

Elizabeth Meyer (Benoni, 2023-03-22)

#1491

We are paying regularly our monthly fees and being failed too often due to lack of maintenance. This is totally unacceptable. If we fail to pay, we are being cut straight away. Now, vice versa, we are punished for non service and have no choice than to wait.

Karin Stolpe (Benoni , 2023-03-22)

We need answers as to why the Benoni water supply is constantly low, and water is switched off, while other areas are clearly being normally supplied and maintained.

Carol Berman (Benoni, 2023-03-22)

We are not being provided with a basic human right and all we are being fed are storied! No one is taking ownership.

Because Rand Water neglect to provide a proper service by supplying water to Benoni. It would appear Rand Water is following the same route than Eskom.

Water is a basic human right and to be denied this right because of people who cannot do their jobs in terms of maintenance, is not acceptable!

Jean Stanton (Benoni , 2023-03-22)

#1536

I and my family are tired of paying astronomical amounts for services we do not have or get as well as for no up keep to ensure our city, residential area, provenance and country as a whole are not frowned upon by the entire world and also for the actions of parties that make our country a laughing stock.

No water for days and every excuse possible for why not as well as the power loadshedding. All this due to no up keep as well as our disgusting roads which are not maintained yet we have to pay for all of this with increased cost but we are barely able to survive on a monthly basis.

Nadia Chadwick (Benoni, 2023-03-22)

Sick tired of NO WATER all the time in Benoni. It's our basic right been taken away from us. Peole are suffering like schools, old age homes.

Andre Strydom (Benoni, 2023-03-22)

I'm sick of being denied my basic human rights of receiving water. Why is it that only a certain part of Benoni is constantly without water!

Tanya Botha (Benoni, 2023-03-22)

#1579

I have a right to basic utilities which I pay for every month and I pay taxes. Do I need to Toi-Toi to get water ?

Margaret Hanvey (Benoni, 2023-03-22)

#1580

I am without water more times than I have and this is unacceptable. Furthermore, we never had such serious issues in the past so it is unreasonable to expect us to believe the excuses being told.

Kathleen Matthews (Benoni, 2023-03-22)

#1582

Water shortages are driving me nuts as my work entails that i need to shower every night otherwise I look like a hobo and i like my personal space to be clean.

Petrus Olivier (Benoni, 2023-03-22)

#1583

Due to the poor/no device of water in Benoni. We are also receiving very high water bills although we have hardly had water over the last couple of months

Donovan Naidoo (Benoni , 2023-03-22)

#1584

I want the water crises to stop

Quinton Lauwrens (Benoni, 2023-03-22)

#1588

I am paying for a service that is non existence but further it is our right to have free flowing water at all times. It is hard enough battling with load shedding, now I must deal with water shedding as well.

Glenn Dixon (Benoni , 2023-03-22)

#1589

I live in Airfield, we have been told that the water outages are due to high demand and loaf shedding, but its summer and load shedding is not going away any time soon, meaning Rand Water need to sort out their side and ensure the residents of all affected areas receive sufficient water daily. Its impossible that most Dams are around 100% and we have had no water for days twice now.

Lindsay Edward (Benoni, 2023-03-22)

#1591

Our water supply is insufficient.

Frederik Scheffer (Benoni, 2023-03-22)

We’re sick and tired of water outages and poor service delivery from our municipality and rand water

Siphelele Ngcobo (Benoni, 2023-03-22)

#1593

It is simply ridiculous that our schools in Benoni have to go without water for days at a time. Small children, older children and adults have to use the toilet, wash hands and keep hygiene a priority. I work with children, money and food and it has become virtually impossible to wash our hands when necessary - preparation of salads, sandwiches and bread rolls all require cleanliness.

Ruth Booysen (Benoni , 2023-03-22)

#1594

We are paying for water that we not receiving, can our municipality wake up.

Gary Botha (Benoni, 2023-03-22)

DAWN VAN HUYSSTEEN (BENONI , 2023-03-22)

#1600

I pay for water every month. I expect a service and cannot understand why there is a sudden drop in the reservoir and no why the maintenance is non existant. Is Rand Water becoming another Eskom. Just unacceptable.

Jane Neilson (Benoni, 2023-03-22)
