No decision, vote or motion found that names this ward or its places.
How items are linked to this ward (no AI makes a link on its own): the text names "Ward 62"; or the ward's councillor says "my ward" while they have the floor (who has the floor is an AI reading of the transcript, checked against a quote); or it names a place that the City's 2022 ward list puts in this ward and no other. Every place-name match was read by hand; false friends (a street or person with a suburb's name) are excluded. A ward number in the text always wins over a place name. A promise also links here when a City document matched to it (by AI, then checked by hand) puts the project in this ward; AI matches nobody has checked don't count. Places that span several wards (Alexandra, Diepkloof, Orlando, most of Soweto) link nowhere, so this page misses items about them. Searched: 10 transcribed sitting days (26 May 2026 to 30 September 2026) and the votes and motions in 65 sets of signed minutes (26 January 2023 to 20 March 2026).
