City of Johannesburg executive mayor Dr Mpho Phalatse and her mayoral committee remain committed to usher in a new era for service delivery in the City.
This was according to Phalatse at a briefing on January 12 on the committee’s immediate, medium and long-term goals of the committee.
She noted that the team has invested time and energy into the consideration of priorities for the remainder of the financial year, ending in June.
“We call this ‘a golden start’. It marked the beginning of real, meaningful change and a restoration of hope and dignity in the City.”
Mayor @mphophalatse1: For too long our residents have suffered the indignities of poor roads, power outages, water outages and a degraded living environment. Some have even lost jobs; indeed, many have been without work for a long, long time #TheGoldenStart #JoburgServices ^GZ pic.twitter.com/Cv9pENoXW6

Phalatse highlighted seven fundamentals which the committee hopes to achieve:
- A city that gets the basic rights
- A safe and secure city
- A caring city
- A business-friendly city
- An inclusive city
- A well-run city
- A smart city.
“This is the golden start to our five-year term. When the Integrated Development Plan and the budget is tabled, the work done to begin fixing our broken City and restore it to its shine will be fully revealed. There is no lack of determination. Through collective efforts and the participation of all, it will be done and we will succeed,” said Phalatse.
