MOSSEL BAY RATES and fixed charge costs UP 95% IN 3 YEARS – SET TO DOUBLE IN every 3 YEARS IF LEFT UNCHECKED!
Ratepayers, wake up! Mossel Bay’s municipal rates are skyrocketing at a shocking pace, far outstripping inflation.
Here’s the reality:
Why is it so much higher??
The Reality in the Town
2023: Rates jumped by 9%.
2024: Rates soared by 13%.
2025: Another 13% increase
PLUS a R450 fixed power charge!
This compounds to a staggering 95%+ increase in rates and fixed charge costs from 2023 to 2025. If this trend continues unchecked, your rates could DOUBLE every 3 years
Meanwhile, inflation (CPI) has averaged just 4.5% annually— So why are rates escalating at nearly 3 times the inflation rate each year
