Vredehoek CID Area and Map
The Vredehoek CID covers the Vredehoek & Devil’s Peak neighbourhoods, and is bounded by:
- Jutland Avenue/Philip Kgosana Drive to the north;
- Upper Buitenkant Street (becoming Gorge Street) to the west;
- Table Mountain National Park to the south and east — excluding High Cape, Disk Park, and properties on Davenport Road, Florida Road, Seymour Road and Escombe Road.
The area is the same as the DPVWatch boundary area, with some predominantly sectional-title areas removed.
Why are some sectional title areas excluded?
Experience with other CIDs shows that too many sectional title properties (apartments or flats) in the area can make it difficult to reach the 60% acceptance threshold to approved the CID. This is because sectional title properties are more likely to be occupied by renters than by owners, making it difficult to get hold of owners and to get them to cast a vote.
To give the Vredehoek CID the greatest chance of success, two areas with largely sectional title properties were excluded: High Cape and the apartment blocks around Chelmsford Rd, St James St and Davenport Rd, including Disa Park.
Once the CID is established, these areas can be added to the Vredehoek CID if the ratepayers choose to do so.
