THE City of Harare has begun an exercise to integrate prepaid water meters installed in different suburbs of the city into its Geographic Information System (GIS) database.

“The purpose of the exercise is to connect the prepaid water meters to the Geographic Information System (GIS) database,” said Cllr Ngadziore.
He urged residents to cooperate with council officials in carrying out the programme.
“Residents are kindly requested to cooperate with the City of Harare team during this exercise,” he said.
