This development, which is a private-public partnership, also aims to attract new industries to the region and unlock further employment and business opportunities for locals. The development activity started during January 2015 with the 15,000 m2 Malda Pack facility that had started business activity; Mr Price's new 60,000 m2 National Distribution Center is complete, with construction of Pepkor's new 85,000 m2 Distribution Center completed in December 2017. The city and developer are currently in discussions regarding financing for the development of the interchange.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 1
INTRODUCTION
OVERVIEW OF THE 2019/20 MTREF
The aim of the program is to incubate start-ups and growth entrepreneurs operating in the sustainable food value chain. The municipality believes in empowering young people to ensure that they contribute to the city's economic growth and development.
KEY ISSUES & CHALLENGES
- SERVICE DELIVERY
- SERVICE DELIVERY STANDARDS, LEVELS OF SERVICES, OUTCOMES, TIMETABLE FOR ACHIEVEMENTS AND FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS
Limited funding and exponential growth in the municipality has also increased the level of outstanding cases. The municipality is making great strides in the massive extension of the additional services program, which aims to improve the lives of residents in informal settlements.
FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE (2017/18 AND 2018/19): PARENT MUNICIPALITY
- OPERATING BUDGET
- CAPITAL BUDGET
The municipality is making great progress in the electrification of informal settlements with informal households earmarked for electrification this year. This has had the effect of emptying the internal reserves. The significant costs that have increased significantly and need to be effectively controlled are EPWP, safety and overtime costs.
ALIGNMENT WITH NATIONAL AND PROVINCIAL PRIORITIES
The chart below compares actual capital expenditures against the parent municipality's total approved capital budget. Approximately R5.1 billion has been received so far from all sources representing 55.5% of the budgeted amount.

MUNICIPAL ENTITIES
Insufficient capital investment in the park in recent years has had a negative impact on revenues. Ushaka has grown to become a key catalyst for the growth of other hospitality businesses in the district, contributing more than R2 billion to the city's economy.
- SOURCES OF FUNDING
Accordingly, Ushaka Marine World will undergo a major facelift to make it the ultimate African theme park experience for the next 20 years. Ushaka Marine World has facilitated the establishment and growth of related hospitality businesses and contributed to the overall growth of tourism in the city and county.
OPERATING EXPENDITURE FRAMEWORK OPERATING EXPENDITURE FRAMEWORK
Consistent with the approach of recent years, the 2019/20 allocations again allow for increases above the CPI level for this cost component. The financing costs primarily consist of repayment of interest on long-term loans (capital costs) and correspond to 2.3% of operating expenses.
CAPITAL EXPENDITURE CAPITAL EXPENDITURE
- CAPITAL BUDGET
However, due to the unstable economic conditions during the budget year, it was most convenient for the municipality to postpone the draw to July 2018. For this purpose, the municipality appointed a main organizer who will help the municipality in establishing the program.

The reasoning is that the ownership and net assets of the municipality belong to the community.
Cashback Reserves / Reconciliation of Accumulated Surplus is in accordance with the requirements of MFMA Circular 42.
ETH eThekwini - Table A8 Consolidated Cash backed reserves/accumulated surplus reconciliation
The table essentially estimates budget funding levels by first forecasting cash and investments at the end of the year and then reconciling available funds with existing liabilities/commitments. This shows that available cash and investments exceed deposits, indicating compliance with the MFMA requirements that the municipal budget is "funded". As part of the budgeting and planning guidelines that informed the preparation of the medium-term budget for 2019/2020, the ultimate objective of the medium-term framework was to ensure budget funding and compliance with section 18 of the MFMA.

OVERVIEW OF THE ANNUAL BUDGET PROCESS 2
- OVERVIEW
- PROCESS FOR CONSULTATIONS WITH EACH GROUP OF STAKEHOLDERS AND OUTCOMES
- SCHEDULE OF KEY DEADLINES RELATING TO THE BUDGET PROCESS
At these meetings, budget strategy, budget policies and the adaptation of the operating budget to the IDP were discussed. The key to strengthening the link between priorities and spending plans lies in strengthening political oversight of the budget process. Political oversight of the budget process gives the government, and especially the municipality, the opportunity to manage the tension between competing political priorities and fiscal realities.
The table below summarizes the key deadlines related to the budget process.

- LINK BETWEEN THE IDP AND THE BUDGET
According to the strategic framework that has been outlined, it is clear that the city budget must be a growth budget that meets basic needs and builds on existing knowledge and technology. The city's implementation plan is organized into eight separate but related plans. These priorities lead to the creation of structures that support, feed and link other actions and activities – the building blocks around which actions and priority setting take place. The municipality is committed to addressing people's needs and values community and stakeholder input.
The revision of the five-year plan in 2019/20 provides an additional opportunity for citizens to actively participate in the development of the IDP.
- KEY FINANCIAL RATIOS / INDICATORS
- FREE AND SUBSIDISED BASIC SERVICES
For the care of the poor, the municipality provides a basket of free basic services in accordance with the defined level of services as part of the social package. The estimated cost of the welfare package (ie loss of income) is approximately R3.9 billion for the 2019/2020 financial year. In addition, a free basic waste collection service is also available to poor consumer units living in rural, informal settlements and fringe residents.
In addition, a free basic service is also available to needy consumer units with VIPs, urine diversion toilets and in informal settlements served by a toilet/wash station within a 200m radius.

Procedures have been drawn up to comply with Section 28 of the Wft and the Municipal Budgets and Reporting Regulations. with regard to the transfer of funds and the reporting of the adjustment budget. An infrastructure asset management plan technically analyzes five facilities and infrastructure asset lifecycle strategies – acquisition, operation, maintenance, renewal, and disposal – to predict the infrastructure asset facilities and activities required to sustainably deliver municipal services.
In order to secure the 98% value of the existing portfolio, it is therefore essential that modern facilities and infrastructure asset systems and practices are applied across the portfolio in a consistent manner.

The graphs show that the city will not breach any of the credit ratios during the MTREF period. As the city is the economic center of the province, water needs are increasing rapidly.
