Provincial Development coordinator Mr Tapiwa Muguti has called on businesses charging in foreign currency to also pay the same currency to local authorities.
In his address to technocrats from government and Harare City council, Muguti said there is no reason for such enterprise to pay on the local currency.
“Those that are receiving in foreign currency should also pay on local authorities in foreign currency,” he said
He further emphasized that government will ensure that local authorities recover money that is owned by stakeholders
“People must pay what they owe .Only about 35 percent are paying for refuse collection and that must come to an end,” he said.
He urged management to think big in line with the city’s 2025 vision.
“We are expecting to see an inspired leadership rise in Harare and a prosperous citizenry.The aspect for Smart Cities must be enabled by urban renewal projects .There has to be a benchmark for innovation,”
