The new tender specification for the collection of recyclable waste within the Bitou Municipal area is currently in process and has reached the first of three stages of bid committees to consider the award.

In order to cover the interim period, the municipality advertised a Request for Quotations (RFQ). Unfortunately, all bids received exceeded the maximum threshold as allowed by the municipality`s Supply Chain Management policy. The RFQ will now be re-advertised, and the finalisation of this process will be prioritised.

The Bitou Easter Sport Tournament continued today and the Bitou Executive Mayor Dave Swart Mayor attended the Cricket Tournament in Kranshoek.

The cricketers showed great skill and abilities and once more showed that there is great sporting talent in Bitou.

Mayor Swart also went to the Kwanokuthula Sports Field to watch the Netball tournament. The players gave their best and a great spirit of sportsmanship prevailed throughout the matches.
