Overstrand Municipality reminds residents that all municipal accounts remain payable and encourages those struggling to enter into formal payment arrangements. Credit control measures, including water restrictions and auxiliary electricity charges, will continue for non-payment, and interference with contractors will not be tolerated.

Overstrand residents are reminded that all municipal accounts remain payable and that consumers are required to make their monthly payments or enter into formal payment arrangements with the Municipality if they are unable to settle their accounts in full. Consumers who fail to honour their payment obligations should note that credit control measures will continue to be implemented in accordance with municipal policy. These measure may include restriction of water and debt recovery through auxiliary charges on electricity purchases. The Overstrand Municipality further warns that interference with contractors performing credit control duties will not be tolerated. This follows recent incidents in Kleinmond and Gansbaai where residents prevented a contractor from carrying out service restrictions. Residents were reportedly under the mistaken impression that an agreement had been reached to suspend credit control actions. The Overstrand Municipality wishes to clarify that no such agreement exists, and credit control measures remain in effect. The Municipality encourages all households who qualify as indigent to apply for assistance.
