Bulawayo City Council officials gathered to assess current development programs and chart investment strategies aimed at sustainable urban expansion. Economic development manager Kholisani Moyo told participants the local authority seeks to build an affordable metropolis through transparent governance while aligning efforts with national policies and continental frameworks like Africa's Agenda 2063.

The municipality has extended water access to 99 percent of residents despite supply inconsistencies, while refuse collection reaches over 92 percent and wastewater services cover 95 percent of the population. Housing initiatives delivered 9,200 residential plots against a 15,000-unit goal. Recent accomplishments include rehabilitated pump stations, solar installations, new schools and clinics, fire equipment acquisitions, street lighting upgrades, and expanded surveillance camera networks.

Officials will convene a December workshop to present the 2026-2030 strategic plan, emphasizing governance improvements and economic expansion. The authority also advances environmental conservation through indigenous tree planting while introducing service delivery benchmarks for water, infrastructure, education, and health sectors.
