Client Service Charter

Preamble

The crafting of the City of Victoria Falls Client Service Charter was carried out through an internal consultative process where the departments indicated standard time lines of providing various services to different stakeholders. 

Purpose 

The aim of our service charter is to provide to our customers with a clear understanding of our commitment to service and product quality and standards to which we endeavour to undertake. This defines the obligations of the City regarding the service we render, and the consumers’ obligations regarding service received.

The Charter demonstrates our commitment to service delivery by listing set service standards. It is our hope that this will encourage all our clients and stakeholders to measure our performance against our set service standards and to communicate back any deviations and deficiencies.
