This is because doing the basics better remains a priority for the City. The budget of R18,5 billion for the next three years echoes this commitment. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThank you to our residents for their contribution. All these investments are geared towards building a \u2018City of Hope\u2019 and actioning our Water Strategy. This is to ensure we continue to deliver clean, reliable drinking water and dignified sanitation services to residents in Cape Town as well as treat wastewater so that we safeguard our environment and improve inland water quality.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The 2023-\u201924 Water and Sanitation budget in a nutshell:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span><em><strong>Informal settlements<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The plan is to spend R38 million on new taps and toilets for informal settlements in addition to services already provided.The directorate will work towards implementing the new water projects that include desalination, aquifer extraction and reuse.

This is planned to drastically increase to R3 billion for 2024-\u201925 financial year. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>WWTW extensions will expand the capacity of key facilities which, among others, include Macassar, which will be upgraded from 34 Ml\/d to 70 Ml\/d and is in the design stage. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As part of proactive efforts to prevent sewer overflows, Strand and Sir Lowry\u2019s Pass\/Mission Grounds are among areas set to benefit from R246,5 million aside for replacing 100 km of sewer pipes while Gordon\u2019s Bay is to benefit from the R523 million dedicated to tackle sewer
