Residents of South Africa’s richest metro will feel the pinch when Johannesburg’s electricity tariffs increase by 12.7%, water by 7.7% and rates by 3.8% as of 1 July. The city’s finance MMC, Dada Morero, announced these increases on Tuesday when tabling an R83.1-billion budget – up from the previous financial year’s R80.9-billion. Morero’s 36-page budget was tabled under the theme “An inclusive budget that leaves no one behind”.
