Public Event organisation
What is a public event? It is where members of the public organise a public event on municipal land, (even a gathering small number of people need a permit).
If you want to organise a public event you need a permit from Joburg.
EMS (Emergency Management Services) deal with public events 011 407 6018.
You have to fill the forms in & submit them. Then the organiser of the event goes to a JOC meeting on Thursdays where they decide if the events can happen or not.
Get the paper work done before you start organising the event!
If the event does not have the permit Joburg will close your event down irrespective of the nature of the event as it is contravening a bylaw.
Stolen Wheelie Bins
Joburg used to replace them, now you have to buy another one yourself.
