2. BACKGROUND AND PROBLEM STATEMENT
Morad undertook site investigations at Ubuntu Arts & Crafts Centre with the view of
establishing the extend of deterioration of the facilities as well as the leaking of the
roof. During the investigations, it was discovered the following;

• The thatched roof section heavily leaks during rainfall.


• Some portions on the tiled roof, especially along valleys and ridges, leak
during rainfall.
• Some portions of the ceiling are damaged.
• Some of the gutters are damaged.
• Certain portions of the fascia board are damaged.
• The whole building need painting on the exterior and interior walls.
• The kitchen needs to be refurbished to make it fully functional.
• The palisade fence needs repairing and repainting.
• The doors for the arts and craft centre need to be from the inside to the
outside then create new exist doors on the inside so as to avoid dust from
going to the library.
• A shed need to be created on the outside of the arts and crafts centre for
the people using the building.

See attached pictures in annexure G.

Amongst other mitigation measures that could be done, Morad recommended


upgrading of the deteriorated or damaged arts and craft center facilities, replacement
of the thatched roof and refurbishment of the kitchen.

Mogale City Local Municipality’s sole objective is to provide quality service delivery for
all in Mogale City. Mogale City Local Municipality has the unique opportunity to lead
this service delivery mandate in Magalisburg through the requisite strategies and
policies that they have in place. Their 2014/15 Top Layer Service Delivery and Budget
Implementation Plan (SDBIP) is one of the tools that will assist them to achieve this
mandate. It gives details of the key actions that the administration of Mogale City Local
Municipality intends to take and be accountable for during the financial year (2014/15).
According to the 2014/15 SDBIP, the Social Services Department needs to undertake
the upgrade of the Ubuntu Arts & Crafts Centre and finish it by the end of the current
financial year. See Appendix E for extracts of the Capital Expenditure tables from the
2014/15 SDBIP for the Social Services department.

To meet this target, Mogale City Local Municipality assigned Morad Consulting the
Upgrade of Ubuntu Arts & Crafts Centre project in-order to assist in coming up with an
engineering sound solution to upgrade the deteriorated and damaged facilities.
