******** eviction without court order.

<p>I am facing eviction by Urban Task Force even though we are still waiting for the ruling by The Housing Tribunal.</p> <p>I exercised my right by not paying the overcharged water bills when there was inconsistent running water into the flat for more than 6months which led to the drilling of the borehole. Tenants are made to pay for the borehole expenses incurred plus consumption R100 per head indefinately.</p> <p>We queried the charge they reduced to R50 but still its unfair billing because by right, biling is suppose to be per consumption and water meters are working properly.</p> <p> Imagine even if one is away or on holiday the rent statement will come with a monthly fixed charge of waterper head.</p> <p>Surely is this a correct ethical business practise? </p> <p>Are the Landlords allowed to make profits on water? </p> <p>Will the tenants carry the borehole with them when living the property since we are charged for the expenses incurred?</p> <p>Is the ''CONSTRUCTIVE EVICTION'' in terms of the Rental Housing Act allowed since Caretaker is already intimidating and threatening me to leave?</p> <p>Is the Landlord allowed to evict even after having lodged a complaint with The Tribunal?</p> <p>Is SARS paid the correct amount taxation calculated from the Taxable Income of Urban Task Force made from such unfair billing?</p> <p>Does the City of Johannesburg and MEC for Human Settlements allow such things to happen or they are not aware of these practises at all?</p> <p> </p> <p> </p>
