Description
LGL3702 Assignment 1 Semester 2 Memo | Due 25 August 2025. TWO ANSWERS PROVIDED. Residents of Extension 39 informal settlement, alongside the N14 Highway, just outside the Johannesburg CBD, have recently embarked on a protest or strike. Their main concern is that they do not have proper electricity, no streetlights, no refuse collection, no clean running water, no waste-water pipes, no houses and other public amenities. The residents rely on water tankering system which comes once a week, pit latrines and illegal connections of electricity, for their daily survival.In 2021, their local municipality promised them that a bulk infrastructure project was coming, where low-cost houses (RDP), roads, water and sanitation pipes were coming, because the municipality had received their Municipal Infrastructure Grant (MIG). To this day, no development has taken place.Residents are very frustrated about this situation, especially in the cold, dark, winter nights. They are upset because of the empty promises from the local municipality.
