*Victoria Falls Mayor Wants Housing Waiting List Scrapped* *Follow Pindula on WhatsApp for daily new updates* https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029Va84dngJP21B2nWeyM3v?wx Victoria Falls City Council mayor Somvelo Dlamini last week told a full council meeting that the housing waiting list should be scrapped. The city has reportedly exhausted all of its land for both residential and commercial purposes while there are over 18 000 applications for residential stands. ---------- Latest itel S24 available on Pindula: 128GB storage, 4GB RAM $119 USD WhatsApp: +263715068543 Calls: 0772464000 Buy Online: https://www.pindula.co.zw/market/itel-s24-128gb-22-20240426142756795795/?s=wanews ---------- Dlamini’s call comes at a time when the council has announced that it will avail about 500 stands in both the high and medium-density suburbs. CITE quoted Dlamini as saying: > The report that we got from the council is that they are above 18 000 and this week we had 147 applications, so do we mean to say we just leave it open, people apply or it will cause a scenario where some will say I have been paying since 2001 and nothing has happened. What measures are we putting in place as a council to solve this? In response to Dlamini’s suggestion, the chairperson of the housing department councillor Nkayiso Sibindi said there was nothing much council could do. He said: > You cannot stop someone from applying, it’s the same as applying for a job, curriculum vitae can be submitted in large quantities, but the one that we want, we pick and offer employment, so there is nothing that we can do about that. You are expected to give a professional answer. Deputy Mayor Patricia Mwale suggested that there was a need for the council to craft a master plan that will allow the city to acquire more land. The Town Clerk Ronnie Dube said the council officers were going to apply their minds on the matter “and see how best we can resolve this issue.” More: Pindula News _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
