Unplanned Water Outage in Uniondale

There is an issue with the Uniondale Water Treatment Works.

Residents may experience low water pressure or no water, as the reservoir levels are low.

Municipal teams are on-site investigating the problem.

Residents are urged to use water sparingly.

George Municipality thanks residents for their patience and cooperation

Our Water Maintenance Team is still attending to a water pipe burst at the intersection of Meade and Hibernia Street, George CBD.

The repair work is taking longer than expected due to the presence of major services (water, fiber, sewer, etc), making it difficult to excavate with a machine, thus all excavations was done by hand. The repairs will take approximately another 2 hours.

Some businesses/households in the affected area might experience low water pressure or no water.

A water truck currently roam the area to provide potable water.

The water pipe burst at the intersection of Meade and Nelson Mandela Boulevard was repaired and water flow was restored.

We apologize for any inconvenience as a result of this and thank the public for their patience.

The George Municipality wishes to alert the public to a housing subsidy scam currently in circulation.
Please note that the Municipality does not sell properties allocated to beneficiaries of housing projects. Furthermore, the Municipality will never request an upfront deposit for the purchase of such properties. Claims to the contrary are false, and posts sharing this misinformation on Facebook or other social media platforms are likely linked to a scam.

If you have responded to such posts or been approached by individuals regarding this matter, you are urged to immediately notify the George Municipality’s Human Settlements Department at 044 802 2003.

If a deposit has been paid, it is imperative to report the fraudulent activity and lodge a criminal complaint at your nearest SAPS office.
The George Municipality urges residents to remain vigilant and assist in combating these fraudulent activities.
