Executive Mayor
Alderman Andries Franken
As the Executive Mayor of the District Municipality, I have a responsibility to ensure that Council provides political and strategic direction to illustrate our commitment and dedication to communities in our region by way of delivering on our legislative service delivery mandate.
The Executive Mayor is the centre of the governance system and is responsible for providing political and strategic leadership. Executive power is vested in the Executive Mayor, in accordance with a framework of powers assigned by legislation and powers delegated by the Municipal Council in terms of the Municipal Systems Act, Act 32 of 2000. In order to maximise operational efficiency, the Municipal Council has delegated all powers except those which it may not delegate by law to the Executive Mayor. The Executive Mayor is assisted by the Mayoral Committee. The Mayoral Committee is chaired by the Executive Mayor and comprises the Deputy Mayor and one full time Councillor.
