The municipality had an existing Asset Register compiled by the municipality and consultants. However the report was not ready at the time of the oversight, as the Register was in the evaluation stage with consultants working on it on-site. The value of the municipality's assets was calculated at approximately R90 million. An initial land audit report indicates that the municipality identified a number of dilapidated buildings which belong to the National Department of Public Works. The municipality wishes to have these assets transferred to it. An additional challenge faced by the municipality was the role of traditional leaders and the existence of land claims in the area. It was reported that most of the land in the municipality falls under the Traditional Council and that there is infighting amongst the groups on the Council.
