Polokwane residents urged to EFT rates and taxes
The Polokwane municipality has urged residents to avoid visiting their offices and rather pay their rates and services electronically.
The call forms part of measures to curb the spread of coronavirus, which has so far infected 62 people.
President Cyril Ramaphosa announced a national state of disaster on Sunday.
Municipal spokesperson Thipa Selala says all municipal contractors at various construction sites are also urged to ensure that their employees are protected.
"There will be a visible number of hand-sanitizing stations throughout many of the municipality's facilities for employees and customers.”
