How the City of Johannesburg is putting its citizens first
When the administration came into office in August, we promised residents of Johannesburg a caring, clean, responsive and citizen-oriented local government.
This is not just lip service, it’s a new course we have undertaken.
Putting residents of our city at the centre of our plans, programmes, projects and everything we do is what drives our agenda.
The most vulnerable in our city will particularly receive focus.
It was not a coincidence when the executive mayor announced the city’s 10-point plan that the commitment to run a responsive, pro-poor and business-friendly government featured second on the list. It signifies the leap in the new direction the city is undertaking, which both acknowledges the role of business and the need to care for the poor residents of the city.
