What these figures carry
- Cost per unit delivered, not per resident. No population divides this figure, so the question of which population to use does not arise.
- It does not say whether the unit was delivered to the same standard. Cheaper per kilometre is more efficient only if the kilometre is the same, and these filings do not establish that.
- Both halves are filed by the municipality on the same return and are unaudited.
Which way is better
Lower is better. Cost per unit of service delivered. Cheaper is more efficient if the unit is the same, which these filings do not establish.
