Tshwane ends decades-old lease, demands R3.8m from property owner

A DECADES-old lease that shielded a Pretoria East property from paying municipal bills has officially been scrapped, as the City of Tshwane moves to recover R3.8 million in unpaid rates from the owner, JL Van Druten.
Under a 1996 agreement with the former City Council, the Watloo-based property was reportedly exempt from paying for municipal services - including water and electricity - for nearly 30 years.
But Tshwane officials have now declared the lease outdated and invalid.
MMC for Health and EFF councillor Oratilwe Blessing Mashabela led a revenue enforcement operation at the site on Monday as part of the City’s Rea Tima campaign.
