Everything about Metropolitan Municipality South Africa totally explained
In
South Africa, a
metropolitan municipality or
Category A municipality is a
municipality which executes all the functions of local government for a
city or
conurbation. This is by contrast to areas which are primarily rural, where the local government is divided into
district municipalities and
local municipalities.
The
Constitution, section 155.1.a
(External Link
), defines "Category A" municipalities. In the Municipal Structures Act
(External Link) it's laid out that this type of local government is to be used for conurbations, "centre[s] of economic activity", areas "for which integrated development planning is desirable", and areas with "strong interdependent social and economic linkages".
The metropolitan municipality is similar to the
consolidated city-county in the USA, although a South African metropolitan municipality is created by notice of the
provincial government, not by agreement between district and local municipalities.
