Tender notices by the municipality

Where the municipality publishes on the eTender portal under its demarcation name

No organ of state on the portal is linked to this municipality by an identical name. Its notices, if any, are listed under the name the portal prints.

Why no ward figures

National Treasury reports municipal finance for the municipality as a whole. Mandate SA shows it at that level and never divides it across wards; a ward’s page links here instead.
