Notice is hereby provided in terms of Section 49 (1)(a)(i) of the Local Government: Municipal Property Rates Act, 2004 (Act No 6 of 2004), hereinafter referred to as the ‘‘Act’’, that the first General Valuation Roll for the financial year 1 July 2023 to 30 June 2028 is open for inspection and public inputs between 13 February 2023 to 14 April 2023. Inspection of the roll can be done during office hours at the municipal offices in Swellendam, Barrydale, Suurbraak and Buffeljagsrivier and on the Municipal website (www.swellendam.gov.za).

An invitation is hereby made in terms of section 49 (1) (a) (ii) read together with section 78 (2) of the Act that any owner of property or another person who desires should lodge an objection with the Municipal Manager in respect to any matter reflected in, or omitted from, the valuation roll within the above-mentioned period.

Attention is specifically drawn to the fact that in terms of section 50 (2) of the Act an objection must be in relation to a specific individual property and not against the general valuation roll as such and that no person is entitled to raise any objection before the Valuation Board unless he/she has lodged an objection timeously and via the prescribed form.

The objection forms are available at the same offices where the valuation roll is available for inspection, as well as on the municipal website (www.swellendam.gov.za). Any objections addressed to the Municipal Manager, must be received by no later than 14 April 2023.

Please note that notices will also be communicated with property owners with assets listed on the Valuation Roll.

Enquiries can be made during office hours via: Mrs D Beukes: (028) 5148500 or e-mail: dbeukes@swellendam.gov.za
