Flagged areas for high water consumption: Ivory Park, Ebony Park, Kaalfontein, Commercia
Residents of Ivory Park, Ebony Park, Kaalfontein, and Commercia are implored to take immediate action to reduce water consumption as water scarcity continues to represent a significant challenge to our community.
Currently, President Park Reservoir is one of the Entity’s top 10 highest consuming meters in the City of Johannesburg, with Ivory Park, Ebony Park, Kaalfontein, and Commercia residents being the highest water consumers.
The implications of high consumption by the four areas will have a negative impact on other suburbs in this supply zone, including Rabie Ridge, Austin View, Glen Austin, Glen Acres, Umthombo, and Randjespark Estate. and surrounding areas.
Two key issues that contribute to the high-consumption rate are on-property leaks as well as non-paying customers who bypass the system through illegal connections.
Please work with us to use water wisely. This is essential in alleviating the pressure on the system and ensuring a sustainable water supply for all residents in the long term.
Once again, we implore you to work with us by repairing your on-property leaks as well as paying for your water services. This is crucial to reducing system stress and guaranteeing a long-term, sustainable water supply for all residents.
Johannesburg Water is appealing to all residents, businesses, and institutions in these identified areas to implement water-saving practices.
