iii) To decide on the number of Councillors from the Community and Emergency Services Committee that shall attend the Games in Johannesburg.

Councillors SV Asbury, I Cassimjee, LM Meyer, SR Naidoo, NC Nofeketa, BD Prinsloo, S Ryley, EL Singh and JC Van Der Berg of the Democratic Alliance recorded their abstention at the Community & Emergency Services Committee meeting, on the basis of their contention that the Metropolitan Police Unit reports directly to the City Manager and not to the Community and Emergency Services Unit and that they had not had sight of such Unit’s budget,

At the Executive Committee meeting on 2016-05-10 the item was discussed and the Democratic Alliance acknowledged and supported the participation by Metro Police at the Games. However, the Committee was reminded of the austerity measures by the Minister of Finance to curtail expenditure thus the non-support of the inclusion of 12 Councillors to attend the Games.

In view of the games taking place in the new Council term of office, it was agreed that the issue of participation by Councillors be dealt with by the new Council. As such, it was agreed to remove recommendation 5 of item 4 contained in the report of the Community & Emergency Services Committee.

SHELTERS AND CITY INFORMATION PANELS INCORPORATING ADVERTISING SITUATED ON COUNCIL PROPERTY: CONTRACT NO 7T - 13415 (21/13/1/2/2)

(Page 215)

Engaging a service provider for a 15-year period to provide residents and visitors with public bus shelters and significantly increase appearance and quality of outdoor advertising in public areas is important to boost the image of the City. A 3-year contract has proved not to attract service providers on the basis that the high investment costs related to the creation of the maintenance infrastructure as well as functioning costs was impossible to recoup over the 3-year period. The experience from other Metro Municipalities shows that the service provider requires a minimum of 15 years to recoup the initial investment, hence, they have engaged service providers for the duration of 20 years for a similar contract.

In view of the foregoing, the City supports the 15-year contract and this is considered to be beneficial to the City taking into account that the service provider is to supply and maintain public transport shelters at no cost to the Municipality. Furthermore the Municipality will receive monthly income on revenue generated from advertising on transport shelters. It is worth noting that upon the completion of the contract period the public transport shelters will become the asset of the Municipality.

COMMITTEE RECOMMENDS:

2.15.1 That, in terms of Section 33 of the Municipal Finance Management Act, Council approves the appointment of the service provider for the period of 15 years to manufacture, supply, install and maintain the public transport shelters for the following reasons::-

2.15.1.1 This contract does not carry financial cost to Council, instead, the Municipality will receive new Public Transport Shelters without incurrence of any additional charge.

2.15.1.2 The service provider will pay monthly fee of 20% from revenue generated through advertising.

2.15.1.3 The local labour will be utilized to install and maintain the public bus shelters.

2.15.2 That Council authorises the City Manager to sign the contracts on behalf of the Municipality.

2.15.3 That Council notes:-

2.15.3.1 The Development Planning, Environment and Management Unit intends to request the Bid Adjudication Committee to recommend this contract to be awarded.

2.15.3.2 The Development Planning, Environment and Management Unit has fully complied with the Section 33 process.ADOPTED.
