\nRebates are provided to senior citizens, the medically boarded, people with\ndisabilities and child-headed households. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cCustomers are cautioned to\nexercise vigilance during this period, as many fall prey to criminals who pose\nas municipal officials offering assistance. There is also NO CHARGE for\nsubmitting these forms,\u201d explains Peet du Plessis, Head of Revenue Management.

All beneficiaries who do not receive renewal letters by 15 March 2019, should visit the Municipality offices with their Identity Documents or call 0800 311 11 11.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
