George Mayor, Ald Leon van Wyk with Ald Bazil Petrus, Portfolio Councillor for Human Settlements and John Laws, Construction Manager: Ruwacon Construction Pty LTD on-site at the Metro Housing project earlier this week. Mayor van Wyk said he is glad to see the good progress being made with the houses up until now and that beneficiaries on the list include disabled people and the elderly.

Ald Petrus said the fact that, as soon as the Western Cape Ministry of Infrastructure gives the go-ahead, we can hand over homes to people, is gratifying. He said the progress with the rest of the houses is also coming along quickly and those homes will be ready to be handed over in the next phase.

George falls within the Garden Route District Municipality, the third-largest district economy in the Western Cape, after the City of Cape Town and the Cape Winelands District. The Eden District is also geographically the third-largest district within the Western Cape Province. This district is informally known as the Garden Route, with George, its hub, nestled among the slopes of the majestic Outeniqua Mountains and flanked by the Indian Ocean. Because of the proximity to the ocean, the area enjoys a pleasant, temperate climate. George also enjoys the strategic advantage of being situated on the major transport routes between Cape Town in the south and Port Elizabeth in the east. This creates investment opportunities, particularly with regard to manufacturing, logistics and warehousing. Communications Manager: Chantel Edwards-Klose cjedwardsklose@george.gov.za
