This will help to address the sewer volumes that will be generated by the abattoir upon commencement of operations. We believe that this might create employment for our residents,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Kanyanga said because the land at Rundu Extension 8 was already brought, the council has prioritised electrifying the industrial area to revive activities and generate revenue that will be used to subsidise the construction of infrastructural services in the informal areas.<\/p>\n<p>He said the council had budgeted a total of N$5 million, with additional funding from the Road Fund Administration of N$6 million for road maintenance and tarring.<\/p>\n<p>Kanyanga also stressed that the council plans to extend Eugene Kakukuru Road to a dual carriageway towards the circle and rehabilitate John Mutorwa Road from the four-way stop going west until the cemetery of Sauyemwa, which has been damaged extensively.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have also made budgetary provision for the re-gravelling of damaged gravel roads, gravelling of sandy roads, as well as general road maintenance,\u201d said Kanyanga.<\/p>\n<p>The council has managed to drill boreholes at Kehemu tower and Ndama location, with a provision to purchase a booster pump for the Kehemu tower and a water tank for the Ndama borehole, he said.<\/p>\n<p>The council has set aside N$1,2 million to commence with the installation of a prepaid water system in the informal settlement, N$2 million to survey new erven, and N$3 million for the gravelling of streets in residential areas.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGiven the projections contained in the budget, we thus plea with the residents and beneficiaries of services to honour their obligations and pay for their municipal services to ensure sustainable and continuous provision of services,\u201d Kanyanga said.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/namibia\">Namibia<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Namibia.
