SAPOA AWAITS CRUCIAL JUDGEMENT ON CAPE TOWN FIXED CHARGES HIGH COURT CASE
Budget specialist and GOOD Party PR Councillor Sandra Dickson expressed dire concern over the delay in delivering the judgement on the case.

“This remains unresolved months after the December 2024 hearings whilst the 2026/27 City of Cape Town Budget is due out on 31st March 2026,” she told TygerBurger.

“The complexity, multiple parties, and the City’s constitutional threats have delayed judgement. However, ratepayers feel that the judgement should have been handed down timeously.”

Meanwhile, she said, Eskom’s disturbing trend of ramping up fixed charges, with the 8.76% tariff hike effective April 2026, spells more hardship for already overstretched ratepayers if the City prevails, layering property taxes onto already crushing bills. Preceding the court hearing, Dickson called for fair, consumption-based tariffs that reflect actual usage and are not discriminatory based on property values.
