Arandis community members gathered in numbers at the Arandis municipality on Monday to hand over a petition listing numerous grievances they want addressed by the town council.

"We decided to sleep in front of the offices so they know that we are extremely serious about this," said Helena Orus, chairperson of the Arandis community representative group.

Arandis town council CEO, Stanley Norris, received the petition on behalf of the Arandis municipality.

Among the listed demands are the need for land and housing, a debt write-off for pensioners, job opportunities, insufficient town development, the state of the local, tender awards, road conditions, and more.

The petitioners demanded a response to these grievances from the concerned community within the next five working days.
