I was in Tulbagh this week checking in on the progress of the community’s new water reservoir, a project that will ensure water security in the area.

There were some blocked storm water drains we tended to, as well as a residents drainage issue. Witzenberg is a municipality that prides itself on being hands on, tell us what is working and what is not, we are aiming to move our towns forward together.

Witzenberg has untapped potential — and it’s time we put it to work. We are exploring plans to revive underutilised dams here in Ceres by transforming them into freshwater aquaculture projects.

This is about real impact:
• Jobs for young people
• Skills development
• Support for local businesses
• Stronger food security

We cannot afford to let these assets sit idle. They must work for our people. Through the right partnerships, we will turn existing resources into sustainable opportunities that uplift our communities in Witzenberg.

One of the biggest priorities I hear from residents is simple: reliable, clean water. We’ve taken that seriously.

With upgrades to our infrastructure and a new water reservoir for Tulbagh, we’re improving water security and the quality of supply for our community.

There’s still more to do, but this is a meaningful step forward.
