Rundu Town Council considering introduction of prepaid water meters
RUNDU, 25 MAR (NAMPA)  The Rundu Town Council is considering the introduction of prepaid water meters to help with revenue collection.
This is after the Namibia Water Corporation (NamWater) placed Rundu on a prepaid credit system and removed it from the conventional water supply system for more effective revenue collection after the town accrued debt of close to N.dollars 60 million.
The town councils acting Chief Executive Officer, Sikongo Haihambo told Nampa in a recent interview the debt still stands at N.dollars 60 million, but there are continuous discussions between the two entities on the issue.
I have engaged the management of NamWater on the water issue and Rundu remains a priority area to them because of the impact the water supply situation has on its 90 000 residents, he said.
There is a water reservoir here and they need to build a water purification plant. But when you talk about such a plant you talk about half a billion dollars, he said.
Haihambo was also of the opinion that other towns with similar problems might have a problem with Rundus debt being written off.
