Government report confirms DA-run Midvaal is Gauteng's top municipality
A report from the Gauteng Planning Commission's Quality of Life Survey, released earlier today by Provincial Premier Nomvula Mokonyane, ranks the Democratic Alliance-run Midvaal Municipality as the province's top municipality for quality of life.
Midvaal has been governed by the DA since December 2000, and over the last the decade we have been working hard to bring the Democratic Alliance's vision of an Open Opportunity Society to Gauteng. This survey, which was conducted in 2009, shows that at almost every level, across numerous ranking categories, Midvaal residents experience better living conditions and governance than those living in ANC municipalities.
