Ratepayers back SAPOA case
Constantiaberg Bulletin
|August 07, 2025
The Cape Town Collective Ratepayers' Association (CTCRA) says it welcomes a court case brought by the South African Property Owners Association (SAPOA) against the City of Cape Town over how it calculates certain charges on municipal bills.
SAPOA has taken the City to the Western Cape High Court, arguing that linking fixed water and sewage charges to property value is unlawful - a view shared by the CTCRA, a newly forming body made up of 57 civic and ratepayer associations across Cape Town.
Its interim chair is Noordhoek Ratepayers' Association chairperson Bas Zuidberg.
In response to SAPOA's legal challenge, Cape Town Mayor Geordin Hill-Lewis said in a statement that the association was acting to protect the profits of the country's wealthiest property owners at the expense of ordinary Capetonians.
