# Build One South Africa has launched a campaign urging Cape Town residents to speak out against proposed tariff hikes in the City’s 2025/26 draft budget. BOSA spokesperson Roger Solomons warns that increases in water, electricity, and waste tariffs will worsen the cost-of-living crisis. Residents are encouraged to submit objections before the 2 May deadline. He insists on a people-first budget that curbs wastage instead of burdening already strained households with steep new costs.
