As one year ends and another begins, we enter a truly special time-full of hope, dreams, resolutions and meaningful reflection.
It is a moment to plan, strive and set the stage for 2026-a year filled with promise, passion and prosperity, a year when we propel forward like never before, achieving more than ever.
It is with great pleasure that I wish everyone and their loved ones, the very best as we continue to pursue sound financial freedom, creative excellence, better service delivery and improved infrastructure-building a city we can all be proud of.
May the festive season bring joy, relaxation and renewed energy, spent responsibly and surrounded by those we cherish most. Let this time of celebration be an opportunity to reconnect, reflect and appreciate the communities that make our city vibrant and strong.
Best wishes for a wonderful 2026-a golden year of freedom, opportunity, and immeasurable joy. A year when everyone thrives: successful, celebrated, and accomplished. A year when public resources serve their intended purpose, when our streets, parks, cemeteries, and infrastructure are properly maintained, communities are safe and life is lived with dignity and abundance.
Let us step into the new year with determination, hope, and a shared commitment to building a city that reflects the best of all of us. May 2026 be a year of progress, prosperity, and pride for everyone. Endless blessings for the New Year.
