The Mangaung Local Municipality (MLM) was established in 2000 with the amalgamation of four former transitional councils, but was recently (May 2011) elevated from a category “B” municipality to a category “A” metropolitan municipality. This new status presented both challenges and opportunities to the Mangaung Metropolitan Municipality (MMM) and it is against this background that the Municipality is excited to fulfil its Constitutional mandate by focusing on effective and efficient municipal service delivery, growing the economy and empowering its community. The Council of Mangaung last year adopted a comprehensive integrated development plan covering this term of local government (2012 -2016). Critically the comprehensive IDP for the City was embedded and informed by the following eight key development priorities:

• Poverty eradication, rural and economic development and job creation
• Financial sustainability e.g. revenue enhancement, clean audit
• Spatial development and the built environment
• Eradication of bucket system, VIP toilets in Botshabelo, Mangaung and Thaba Nchu, focus on the basics, building solar farming, power plant feasibility, safety & security
• Human Settlement
• Public Transport
• Environmental Management and Climate change
• Social and community services

This report will express itself to the strides the MMM has been taking in responding to the above in the year under review.
