The City of Ekurhuleni conducted a revenue enhancement blitz at industrial
customers in Boksburg to collect outstanding debt on Friday, 20 September 2024.
Altogether, 12 properties owing the city about R1.4 million were visited. At one of the companies
visited a payment of R205 00.00 was made. An arrangement to pay the outstanding debt was also
made.
The blitz included identifying and disconnecting illegal power connections. An illegal bulk supply to
an informal settlement was also disconnected. Additionally, water meters were removed from
companies that have outstanding debts.
The city urges residents and businesses with overdue accounts to step forward and make payment
arrangements to avoid disconnections.
The revenue enhancement blitzes seek to reduce customer debt, maintain the city’s financial
stability and improve the provision of services.
