The municipality has 5 standing committees. The municipality has established these committees according to the Municipal Structures Act. Public participation and consultation During the Mayoral Imbizo’s the municipality utilises a local radio station (Vukani FM) and local newspaper (Skawara News) as a means of consulting and mobilising its communities, as it is very paramount for them to have a say in council decisions and service delivery. The Ward Councillors together with Community Development workers and Ward Committees also played a vital role as they serve as the close link between the communities and the municipality in mobilising for such occasions. When there is a public hearing, proper communications are made through announcements in community radio i.e. Vukani Community Radio. Public Hearings also publicised by two way communication that is in between the ward councillor and the residents at large and also the CDW’s. The municipality has also enhanced the way of conveying the message when there will be public hearing and imbizo’s through the tool of loud hailing to its communities. Customer Satisfaction Surveys: English and Xhosa questionnaires are established and made available to measure the satisfaction of the public/ commuters. These questionnaires distributed and then collected quarterly to all 23 wards of the Intsika Yethu municipality as the way of getting feedback from the public. Ward committees’ establishment and functionality As the Handbook of Ward Committees outlines that during the sitting of the meetings of the ward committee members, the ward councillor of that particular ward is regarded as chairperson. According to the reports forwarded by the ward councillor to the Speaker’s Office that are furnished by credential lists shown a good attendance of the committee members into wards meetings. As the ward committee members are ward based and their meetings are convened and held in their respective wards, the minutes are written and filled by committee secretaries and some copies are forwarded to their ward councillors. Availability of ward committee activity reports: each and every ward had its own program of action where each committee member performs his/her tasks and in turn reports to his/her ward councillor. Community Development Workers performance monitoring To try and monitor the Community Development Work, the municipality has purchased a prefab which will be utilised as offices by CDW’s. That will make it easy for the municipality to work and monitor the CDW’s. A full time municipal official was made available for coordinate CDW’s. The municipality has made sits available for CDW’s in the council meeting to make it easy for issues for the CDW’s to follow and understand matters of local government and development. The municipality is in the process of coordinating the reports of the CDW’s and assist where necessary before they are forwarded to the province. As we all know that the CDWs are ward based and regarded as the foot soldiers for service delivery, they compile reports based on their findings in their wards. The monthly reports are handed over to the speaker’s office and to the Department of Local Government and Traditional Affairs. INTSIKA YETHU LOCAL MUNICIPALITY / 41
