THE City of Harare is continuing to roll out its prepaid water meter programme, with installation already underway in Mt Pleasant.
In his Ward 17 service delivery report presented at a feedback meeting held on Saturday last week, Ward 17 Mt Pleasant Councillor Happymore Gotora said a significant number of households in the ward had already been fitted with prepaid water meters.
He said the installation programme was continuing to expand to other parts of the ward.
“The prepaid metering programme is intended to promote responsible water consumption, improve revenue collection and contribute towards the sustainability of the city’s water services,” read the report.
Clr Gotora urged residents to cooperate with council teams and its partner, Helcraw Water, during the installation of the meters.
“This programme will only succeed if council and residents work together,” he said.
