What borehole did you get for R300?

No man, my water bill is less than the sewerage. I use borehole water to water my garden. Think I should use that too to fill the toilets, then what they gonna charge me for. Water = R45.00, Sewerage = R56 and then there is refuse removal, which is not alot

 

whattya complainin about? Im more in covie's ballpark!!!

Water is straight from the reading (could be actual or estimate):

 

Water which is used predominantly for domestic purposes and supplied to single residential properties.

 

Sanitation is worked out according to your water usage and whether you live in stand-alone or cluster house:

 

DOMESTIC Full - Standard

 

Single residential properties - 70% of water consumption to a maximum of 35 kl of sewerage per month (70% of 50 kl water = 35 kl of sewerage)

 

DOMESTIC Full - CoCT Oxidation Dams

 

Single residential properties - 70% of water consumption to a maximum of 35 kl of sewerage per month (70% of 50 kl water = 35 kl of sewerage)

 

DOMESTIC Cluster

 

Bulk metered flats, cluster developments. Including sectional and single title units. 90% of water consumption (* see note) up to a maximum of 35kl per household (reduced from the 2008/09 cap of 90% of 50kl water equal to 45kl of sewage). An allowance of 4,2 kl per unit per month will be made available at zero cost upon acceptance of a sworn affidavit stating the number of units supplied from that metered connection / refer tariff policy. In order to improve alignment between Sanitation and Water Costs, the tariff has been kept unchanged from 2009/10.
