The DA in the Western Cape acknowledges the decision of Dr Annelie Rabie to step down as Overstrand Mayor after serving the Municipality since November 2021.
Under the stewardship of Mayor Rabie and the collective efforts of the municipal team, the Overstrand Municipality has continued to lead the way in demonstrating that service delivery and ethical governance go hand in hand.
Just last year, Overstrand Municipality achieved a clean audit for the 2024 financial year – the 12th consecutive clean audit for the DA-run Municipality.
Mayor Rabie says: “In the beginning, it was a steep learning curve with several challenges due to outstanding business we inherited from the previous term. I am, however, proud to say that this chapter can be closed with the rollover matters all being concluded at the end of January this year.”
Mayor Rabie will officially step down on 1 April.
The call for nominations to choose a new Mayor will commence in due time.
In the interim and beyond, the momentum of excellent service delivery will continue to be provided to residents of the Municipality.
We thank Mayor Rabie’s unwavering dedication to serving the Municipality and residents. We wish her well in her future endeavours.
