BUDGET PRESENTATIONDCCI
“Cities that have a close relationship / partnership with business are winning cities”
INTRODUCTION• Draft budget presented to DCCI on 20 March 2013
• Regional hearings and Big Mama workshop held
• Varying issues raised depending on the area – some areas concerned about verge cutting and potholes whilst other areas are concerned about housing and basic services
• Crime and unemployment were also raised
• Informal traders
• Need to ensure that the social, economic and rehabilitative balance is in place
• Need to focus on ensuring that all have access to basic services and maximising job creation opportunities
“Empty pockets teaches you a million things in life. But full pockets spoils you in a million ways”
CONTEXT & CHALLENGES
Good liquidity – average cash holdings of R5 billion equating to about 96 days cash on hand
Highest collection rates in the country for the past two financial years (2010/2011 and 2011/2012). In current financial year 2012/2013 the collection rate is 103.5% year to date – up from 97.5% in 2011/2012
Highest spend on Maintenance and Repairs in the country – 11%
Biggest capital budget in the country R5.432 billion
Unqualified audit report
Excellent credit rating – best in municipal sector
However, Municipality not cash rich – just prudently and well managed
Excellent political support in implementing policies
FINANCIAL POSITION
Strict compliance with supply chain management policy, VFM & benchmarking given key focus
Sustainability of housing provision from current financing sources
Infrastructure and service delivery backlogs Bulk purchase costs: - Eskom 8% average increase - Umgeni Water 8% increase Minimal level of growth major costs to unblock development – return on investments Impact of bringing Durban Transport back under the City’s
control Unaccounted for water and theft of electricity
THE CHALLENGES
DEVELOPERS• Want to pay minimal amount for bulk services
• Providing infrastructure without an informed spatial development framework
• Not prepared to guarantee an uptake
• Only 0.1% of total revenue derived from development charges
• Not sustainable – need development levy
• Serviced industrial land – business must come up with the business plan and demonstrate reasonable return on investment and take-up
“No enterprise can exist for itself alone. It ministers to some great need, it performs some great service, not for itself, but for others.. or failing therein, it ceases to be profitable and ceases to exist.” – Calvin Coolidge
ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT REBATE • Rating Policy – targeted relief on big developments being
considered
• Developments that fall within the Development node approved by Council may receive a rebate as approved by Council on application and will be limited to :
- For a period of three years from date of development plan approved, for investments with a property market value, between R150 million to R300 million;
- For a period of five years from the date the development plan is approved, for investments with a property market value, between R300 million to R1 billion, post development; and
- The rebates above will be deferred to the next financial year and will be apportioned in accordance with the completion and transfer of units within the development in terms of the rates policy.
SDF – STRATEGIC INVESTMENT AREAS• Port of Durban – logistics infrastructure
• Illovo – freight route, automotive supply park
• Back of Port – economic, manufacturing & trading hub
• Dube Tradeport – promotion of international trade - discussed later in more detail
• Cato Ridge – industrial expansion and dry port
• South Durban Basin – regenerating the industrial base – creating cleaner, greener industries, improving QOL and stimulating new development
• Inner City – iTRUMP - regeneration
“The first rule of any technology used in a business is that automation applied to an efficient operation will magnify the efficiency. The second is that automation applied to an inefficient operation will magnify the inefficiency.” – Bill Gates
USE OF PUBLIC TRANSPORT• How do we ensure maximum use?
• IRTPN – success dependent on densification and effective nodes being created
• Cannot sustain individuals traveling to work in own vehicles – need a credible and reliable public transport system
“Never feel bad if people remember you only at the time of their need. Feel privileged that they think of you like a candle in the darkness of their life”
• The system consists, inter-alia :– Roads
• Road works• Bridges• Interchanges• Intersections
– Associated buildings• Terminal Stations• Transfer Stations• Depots
– Information and Communication Technology (ICT)
– Fare and revenue collection systems– Control Centre
IRPTN Infrastructure

ELECTRICITY SERVICESSALARIES & ALLOWANCES Besides the salary increase of 6.85%, provision has been made to fill 498 vacant posts. There
is a dire shortage of critical staff.GEN EXPENSES The primary reason for the increase is the bulk purchase of electricity from Eskom which has
increased by 8% for 2013/2014 – this is partially offset by a reduction in consumption.REPAIRS & MAINTENANCE As a result of increases in the number of faults due to the ageing infrastructure,
maintenance expenditure on the electrical network has increased. Theft and vandalism are also major contributors.
CONTRIBUTIONS The increase is due to contributions to the Capital Replacement Reserve resulting from the
restatement of the “Contingency – provision for a decrease in Consumption” previously reflected as a debit against Sales.
RECOVERIES Recoveries have increased due to an increase in the no. of technical staff being employed
who contribute to the increased hours that are now being recovered. INCOME Income has increased as a result of the electricity sales tariff increase of 8%. This is
necessary to balance the Electricity budget.
ELECTRICITY SERVICES delivery Proposed tariff increase 8% - is being reviewed ESKOM increase of 8% - to be reduced Final tariff increase depends on NERSA’s approval Electricity loss in distribution at 5.8% - lowest in the country and below

“I don't want to be just a voice on the phone. I have to get to know these guys face-to-face and develop a sincere relationship. That way, if we run into problems in a deal, it doesn't get adversarial. We trust each other and have the confidence we can work things out.” - Wayne Huizenga

CONCLUSION• Security – we have invested a lot in this, for example, 30 new
security guards on beachfront and CCTV cameras and 2 615 Metro police person

• Partnerships – for example, Cape Town has about 40 UIP’s whereas we only have 9. Business needs to partner with us – UIP’s, priority zones, PPP’s, CSR initiatives, etc.
• “Cities that have a close relationship / partnership with business are winning cities”
CONCLUSION• Services – enabling environment
• Need to work together to reduce the environmental impact of business and industry
