What is a CID
City Improvement District?
A City Improvement District (CID) is a clearly defined geographical area in which property owners pay additional property rates to fund supplementary municipal services to improve or upgrade that specific area.
CIDs can be commercial, industrial, residential or a combination of any of these and are known as Improvement Districts, City Improvement Districts, Business Improvement Districts, or Community Improvement Districts.
Supplementary services typically include:
- additional public safety;
- cleansing services;
- urban maintenance;
- upgrading of the environment; and
- social upliftment
ABout the project
A noticeable decline in safety & security, and a steady increase in vagrants and criminal elements around the beachfront, drove a team of residents to start a process that will transform Camps Bay.
