Testimonials
Taxi Rank
“We are happy that the Municipality listened to us when we said the Taxi Rank (as originally designed) did not meet our needs. We therefore wish to thank the Mayor, his Executive Committee and the Municipal Manager for enabling us to serve our commuters in an organised and safe environment”. “We promise to look after this facility as best we can”.
Service Delivery
“Greater Taung Local Municipality has managed to provide communities with housing, build toilets, register indigents for free basic services and much more because of the commitment and selflessness of Ward Committee Members”.
