Helped or Hijacked? Kgetlengrivier Residents Take Control | Carte Blanche | M-Net

Kgetlengrivier may only be a small municipality in the North West province’s Bojanala District, but a ground-breaking precedent has been set as the High Court gives Concerned Citizens the authority to run their own water and sewage plants. For the fed-up residents of Kgetlengrivier, which includes Borolelo, Derby, Koster, Swartruggens and Reagile, the ruling has been a godsend. Where raw sewage was spilling into streets and rivers, and taps were dry for weeks on end, now the water runs clear and there is hope of a turnaround. The Concerned Citizens must now be paid for the work they are doing by local and provincial authorities. Carte Blanche investigates what this might signify for other municipalities where local government is failing. Should Government be so easily let off the hook for failing to do its job? And are public-private partnerships like this one a sustainable solution?
