CTVS Residents,
I, Joe Stough am no longer a trustee but I am working with the new trustees to enable a smooth transition.
After speaking with Jefferson County Roadworks it appears they’re only going to be doing crack sealing this year.
I was informed that concrete has increased from $ 57 a sq. yard to $ 102 a square yard. At that price I’m not sure how much work can be done with the money we have on hand, however I’m looking to get a bid so we can have an idea of what we can get done on our own. High priority will be on Wellesley and Cape Town Village Rd. and to a lesser extent ( but not much ) Belmont and Medford.
After I receive a bid, the results will be posed here..
Thank You,
Joe

A note from Joe:
During my walks, I noticed the asphalt overlay on Gloucester is already showing cracks. Shouldn’t be long before it ends up in the storm sewer. And for that very reason, the Cape Town Village South HOA should only accept concrete replacement from Jefferson County ( other than patching holes ) or pay to have the concrete work done by private contractors.
Still no response ( 3rd contact ) from Jefferson County Storm water Division on the replacement of the rusted out Storm water pipe between the common ground between Somerville and Hillsboro-Valley Park Rd.
This weekend (10/29/21) the Storm water run-off from the common ground area of the old footbridge to Somerville is being cleared on both sides of the run-off, trees will be cut down in the runoff itself. It may be necessary to do some excavation work to keep the run-off from affecting properties along Cambridge and Somerville. Please refrain from throwing trash and other items, railroad ties, tires and other debris in the run-off.

Subject: Homeowners behind on assessments
If you are a homeowner in Cape Town Village South subdivision who are behind on assessments the Homeowners Association is imploring you to not ignore letters from City and Village Tax Office, Sandberg Phoenix & von Gontard or Dana McKitrick law firms. Just ignoring the communications results in very large and burdensome legal fees which are charged to the homeowners. It’s very troublesome when notifying and asking homeowners to pay assessments and it falls on deaf ears, especially when we ( the HOA ) is willing to work with you to clear the debt. Sadly, to continue down this path will eventually cost you the ownership of your home. Please listen to the voice of reason and do what is right. We’re waiting to help you.
Contact City & Village Tax Office @ 314-739-4800

News for the week of 8/16/21:
Subject: Request for Trustees
Cape Town Village South is approaching a crossroads in determining the future of the subdivision. Either we’ll move forward with continuing improvements or regress from the progress made in the last 5-6 years.
There has been quite a large turnover in the ownership of homes recently. There’s a good side and a bad side to the changes of ownership. The good side is an influx of younger owners who (I believe along with many of us who have been here for years) truly care about their investment in homeownership. The bad side is that homes are also being purchased as rental properties which in turn cause a continual turnover of people coming and going which means instability in the subdivision.
Moving forward, the HOA indentures are in need of a complete rewrite to fix this problem and any other issues homeowners may be interested in correcting. It would be a large undertaking as it would require approximately 220 “yes” votes out of some 350 homeowners and we know from a previous experience would require door-to-door collection of votes. This would require homeowners who would be willing to help the trustees reach the necessary votes for passage.
Having spoken to 2 separate law firms it would cost approximately $5000 to $9000 to totally rewrite the indentures. So, as a community we need to decide what our homes and the future of this subdivision are worth. Jefferson County Road Works currently maintains the streets, storm sewer inlets, signs, etc. This is a 5 year agreement and we are well into year 3. At year 5 the county will assess the program and decide if they will continue the program or end it.
I personally, as almost all of you would agree don’t particularly care for the yearly “special assessment” which is part of the HOA indentures. If Jefferson County stops maintaining the streets there’s a real problem. The way the indentures are currently written the HOA can only collect $150.00 a year per household outside of a special assessment. That results in approximately $53,000.00 a year if everyone were to pay their assessments, which should be noted does not happen. City and Village Tax Office then takes 10% of that amount leaving about $48,000.00 a year to maintain everything, and since not everyone pays all or even part of their assessments it means the subdivision would once again fall into financial hardship from lack of funds.
You can see where the assessments are spent by viewing: http://www.capetownvillagesouth.com/2021-statements.html
I, (Joe S.) plan on resigning at the next HOA meeting if not sooner. Kerry S. has agreed to stay on as a trustee. We’re in need of 2 more individuals to volunteer as trustees. Please consider volunteering as our future depends on those willing to run the HOA. The job doesn’t require a lot of time and I will help newly elected trustees learn the ropes as it were. Find the Trustees contact info here: http://www.capetownvillagesouth.com/contact.html
Thank you to all of you who live in Cape Town Village South for reading this open letter and consider the request for trustee as well as a rewrite of the indentures.
Thanks,
Joe

Please do not just ignore correspondences form City and Village or SPVG/McKittrick law offices because at some point, the point of no return will be reached at which time the HOA can't help any longer.

6/29/21 Attention Homeowners
Message relayed from your trustees, recent Waste Management inconsistent service.
(To affected homeowners) Our sincere apologies for the inconsistent service Cape Town Village South has received lately. We have been significantly under-staffed these last few months due to a severe shortage in available commercial drivers in the local transportation industry. We are actively hiring and recruiting new drivers every day to get back on track, and are also working on a number of logistical changes to help stabilize service.
With this being said, we are currently unable to guarantee service on a specific day due to the uncontrollable nature of staffing today. We can guarantee service by the end of the following business day should we be unable to complete service on the planned day. We encourage residents to leave their trash out and accessible for us.
Also, residents are encouraged to sign up for automated service alerts notifying of potential service disruption. They can do so by calling customer service at 1-800-964-8988 and providing their address or by emailing customer service at [email protected].
Thank you for your continued patience and please know we are working as hard as possible to recruit and hire new drivers and return to the state of predictable service you folks have come to know and expect.

(Updated 5/25/21)
The Trustees are waiting to hear from Jefferson County Public Works to see if they'll help with costs since the pipe runs under Somerville between storm and water inlets. We are thrilled to report we received a bid much lower than expected. We believe we can get this work done and not send the HOA into Debt.
5/24/21 Attention Homeowners
Message from your trustees, Storm Water Runoff Piping.
Cape Town Village South is waiting on a bid from a highly recommended contractor, Kelpe Contracting. There is approximately 200 ft. of rusted and deteriorating galvanized pipe. A sleeve would have been the least expensive option but the diameter of the existing pipe is 42” requiring the new sleeve to be 36” diameter which may not be able to handle heavy rains. Due to the Covid situation, plastic piping costs have soared. Also, to handle the additional run-off from Somerville Dr., the 42” pipe transitions to 60” pipe. Until an inspection has been completed we are unsure of how many feet will be of the 60" pipe. We are also looking at replacing the old 60" galvanized pipe with 60" concrete pipe as there may be a cost savings. When this work commences, the 5500 block of Somerville Dr. would be closed 1 day between the 2 storm water inlets. Also of note, the Cape Town Village South HOA currently does not have the necessary funds to cover the cost of replacing the entire Storm Water Runoff Piping system in question. The Trustees are examining 2 options, borrow the money or wait and continue to save for this project, at the earliest we will post an update this coming week.

* The Trustees have given responsibility of snow removal for the 2020/2021 season to Jefferson County.
* If the County is too slow in getting to us for plowing we will formulate a "Plan B" possibly contracting the work out in extreme cases when needed. Basically trial and error this Winter.

"ADDENDUM: 9/9/20 DECISION HAS BEEN MADE IN FAVOR OF JEFFERSON COUNTY PLOWING THE ROADS FOR 2020/2021 SEASON."
THE ISSUE BELOW IS CLOSED.
Your Trustees are looking for homeowner input.
Question: Should Cape Town Village South turn over snowplowing / salting to Jefferson County for the 2020 Winter season?
Per a discussion with Karen of Jefferson County Public Works they have 3 new plow trucks which will be dedicated to subdivisions.
Depending on the weather, we could possibly save between $3-5k which could be used for other urgent matters. A large expense would be the replacement of the 4 foot diameter (4') galvanized drainage pipe of which the bottom is rusted out. This pipe runs under the common ground and Somerville which then empties into the ditch running adjacent to Hillsboro Valley Park Rd. We estimate it is going to cost between $80-$100k to replace the pipe. As you can see, we currently do not have the funds for this project (8/20/20). The Subdivision needs to be as frugal as possible with the HOA expenditures. Let us know your thoughts ASAP by contacting us by phone or by agreeing or disagreeing via the survey below.

News for the week of 12/2/19:
November 2019 Income & Disbursement Statement has been posted here.
Road replacement for 2019 has been completed. New concrete replacement will resume sometime in 2020.
Important Notice:
At this time (December 2019) Cape Town Village South has reached approximately one third of the subdivision either not paying Assessments on time or is taking advantage of Legal Service's not collecting Assessments until the home owner is at least $1000.00 delinquent.
Starting January 1st. 2020, after the home owner has reached a $500.00 delinquency and has not contacted City and Village Tax Service to reach a payment plan that will satisfy the balance due and to remain currently paid on time, then at that time the subdivision attorney's will file in court for a judgement against the delinquent homeowner.
In extreme instances of Delinquency action may be taken to pursue the sale of the property to pay the subdivision what is due.
Per the indentures, the homeowner is liable for all legal services costs and court costs.
With only two thirds of the subdivision membership paying their Assessments, the subdivision will eventually fall behind in adequate funds and will not be able to pay the bills due and keep up with needed repairs at the same time.
All members of the subdivision need to stay current on their assessments. The subdivision owners who pay their assessments should not suffer for those who don't.

The process of concrete removal and replacement on Belmont near Cape Town Village Rd. has begun.
During initial phase of roadwork:

News for the week of 9/23/19:
E. Meier Operations manager just informed us that there has been a delay on an existing project and will not be moving into Capetown Village South until next week 9/30/19. They will move in and start with parking signs , door hangers and information on dates etc... to pass on to the homeowners with as much information as possible. There are no concerns of not having the same completion time.
Thanks for your patience.
---------------------------------
News for the week of 9/16/19:
Road work will start the week of 9/23 at Capetown Village Road and Belmont. If you come down Capetown Village Road, and turn right, that is the start point. They will do the right hand lane first and continue up Belmont, onto Winthrop, and then Braintree, and lastly back around onto Belmont to the starting point. Then if all goes as planned they will begin on the opposite side of the street and repeat the process.
When an area is excavated it will be rocked in over night, in front of driveways. Excavations will normally only be open one day then concrete poured the next. The dwell time for cure is three days. After that it will be driveable.
During the 3 days of concrete curing drivers will have to find alternate parking. Also During this process it may take several more days after the curing process has completed if machinery or materials are still preventing parking in front of your home from the next section adjacent being poured or curing. Not all drivers will have to wait more than 3 days but there may be a percentage who do.
Other Important Things to remember:
Please talk to your neighbors soon about parking at their property, in their driveway or on the street in front of their house.
Please be mindful and patient with your neighbors. no need to add more stress than may have already accumulated.
If you have a blocked mailbox your mail will have to be picked up at the Fenton Post Office. 10 Fenton Plaza, Fenton, MO.
They will put up no parking signs and other traffic directions.
They will photo driveways prior to excavation.
Work is expected to take 6+ weeks total.

Road Work News
Upcoming Road Work to begin soon.
Streets will be marked the week of 9/16/19, weather permitting.
Actual roadwork to begin 9/23/19, weather permitting.
During the week of 9/16/19 the Jefferson County Road Department will come out and mark the slabs to be replaced. The Road Department will then begin replacing sections of concrete the next week on 9/23/19 on Belmont, Winthrop, Braintree, Cambridge, Somerville Drive, and Somerville Spur. Work expected to be completed on these roads before the colder fall weather comes.
Homeowners please make arrangements if possible with your neighbors across the street to park there if concrete is being replaced in front of your, or their driveways. The Director says long sections of concrete will be replaced, and if homeowners don't make arrangements to park across the street it is likely they may have to park a long distance away.
While these long sections of concrete are being replaced, it will be impossible to park in those areas. Our streets are narrow, and with one side torn out for a long distance homeowners can not park on the street across from that work. It would make the street impassable if they did.
ALL ILLEGALLY PARKED VEHICLES WILL BE TOWED AT OWNERS EXPENSE, NO EXCEPTIONS.
The Road Department will only barricade the new concrete for about three days. The Director says that by then it should reach 2500 PSI and the barricades will be removed.
If replacement occurs on mailbox side of street, mail will have to be picked up at the Fenton Post Office ( be sure to bring ID ).
Removing barriers or damaging concrete will be subject to prosecution by Jefferson County.

Subdivision Updates
Completed work or near completion:
* $10,000.00 section of street that became unstable on Winthrop Dr. has been replaced.
* Section of sewer line on Plymouth Dr. has been replaced. Digging up the driveway and front yard of the house until good "old" piping was found to connect "new" piping too was required. New driveway will be poured in the near future, possibly along with a new sewer top and lid.
Work yet to be started:
* Replacement of hundreds of feet of four foot pipe between the woods section on Somerville Dr. going all the way to the creek on Hillsboro Valley Park Rd. The old galvanized Piping has rusted out and is causing sink holes.
* Wooden Foot Bridge is in need of new footings, wood replacement, and paint.
* The creek going to the pipe needs to be clear cut.
For anyone interested in what is going on in Cape Town Village South these are just some of the improvements now and in the very near future,
Thank You.

Attention Homeowners
Jim O'Connor went to Hillsboro last week (9/5/18) and turned in the votes to be counted and verified by the county. He was told there are now four subdivisions accepted to date. The application has to be read to the county and voted on three times to be accepted. Our subdivision will be read at the end of September for the first time along with six other subdivisions that have been read before. By the time ours will come up for the third and final reading to be voted on for acceptance it will be at the end of October. We have no idea of how many other subdivisions will be in the process by that time. If they vote to accept us we will not expect any repairs from them this year because we are having our streets treated come the snow or ice. We hope this will happen. We as your Trustees worked hard to get this process completed even if it was slowed down by lack of interest by some homeowners. The homeowners who attended our special meeting to vote or those who voted after the meeting we thank you!

All homeowners in CTVS are partly financially responsible for repairing / un-clogging sewers which is costly, funds that could have instead gone to further repairing our streets.

News for the week of 5/23/16:
Boling Concrete expects to be able to start replacement of the streets about the middle of June. They are going to replace around 800 feet on one side of the streets with the money available for this year, at this time. The sections will be what the Trustees think are the one's in the worst shape on the major routes in the subdivision. We will address the next of the worst sections next year and hopefully we will be able to fix some on all of the streets. This will continue as long as the current trustee's hold their positions. The replacements will be a 6 1/2 bag mixture that will be 8 inches thick, with joints at every 15 ft. and sealed. There will be #4 wire in it the same as they use on the highway. It will have 4 inches of MoDot type 4 rock as a sub base, the same as St. Louis County requires.
The trustee's wish to thank all the home owners for their patience. Boling Concrete was the lowest bidder and after reviewing past and present work that they have completed we feel that we have found the best contractor for our subdivision.

After obtaining bids for street concrete replacement the winner will be Boling Concrete Construction. They will start replacing sections as soon as they can. More sections will be replaced all summer long as long as we have the money to do so. We will replace the street sections on the worst sections of the most traveled streets first continuing until all defective sections have been replaced, which will take years. This will be done as promised, please be patient. In the mean time potholes etc. will continue to be repaired as needed along with the required subdivision maintenance to bring it back to Jefferson County requirements. The sheriff's department has now promised to start giving out tickets for running stop signs and speeding. They will also cite for unlicensed off road vehicles and motorcycles.

Annual Special Assessment
Through the efforts of many volunteers and your board of trustees, they have achieved what was thought impossible. They devoted many long arduous hours to accomplish this task. The eligible voters in our subdivision passed the annual special assessment, and averted the imminent financial collapse of our subdivision. There was no other viable choice in resolving the situation, other than the aforementioned vote, to sustain financial viability and avoid bankruptcy of the subdivision.
Now, we will begin the long road to recovery, which will not be an easy one, but has to be done. As funds are received, we will begin to make necessary repairs as well as begin collection of past due assessment fees. We will use appropriate litigation, if necessary, in the collection of fees from those who have not paid.
Our intent is to put the same force of will and effort into making this subdivision one of which you, as a homeowner, will be proud! It will not happen all at once. We hope that over the next three years, you will see quite a difference; in the condition of our streets, and the subdivision in general.
---------------------------------
News for the week of 6/8/15:
Homeowners,
To everyone that agreed to the special assessment. Without your vote of confidence, this wouldn't have been possible. With the passage of these additional monies, with time, we'll be able to make a subdivision we can all be proud of while protecting our investments. Look for a newsletter to follow.

CTVS Residents,
I, Joe Stough am no longer a trustee but I am working with the new trustees to enable a smooth transition.
After speaking with Jefferson County Roadworks it appears they’re only going to be doing crack sealing this year.
I was informed that concrete has increased from $ 57 a sq. yard to $ 102 a square yard. At that price I’m not sure how much work can be done with the money we have on hand, however I’m looking to get a bid so we can have an idea of what we can get done on our own. High priority will be on Wellesley and Cape Town Village Rd. and to a lesser extent ( but not much ) Belmont and Medford.
After I receive a bid, the results will be posed here..
Thank You,
Joe

A note from Joe:
During my walks, I noticed the asphalt overlay on Gloucester is already showing cracks. Shouldn’t be long before it ends up in the storm sewer. And for that very reason, the Cape Town Village South HOA should only accept concrete replacement from Jefferson County ( other than patching holes ) or pay to have the concrete work done by private contractors.
Still no response ( 3rd contact ) from Jefferson County Storm water Division on the replacement of the rusted out Storm water pipe between the common ground between Somerville and Hillsboro-Valley Park Rd.
This weekend (10/29/21) the Storm water run-off from the common ground area of the old footbridge to Somerville is being cleared on both sides of the run-off, trees will be cut down in the runoff itself. It may be necessary to do some excavation work to keep the run-off from affecting properties along Cambridge and Somerville. Please refrain from throwing trash and other items, railroad ties, tires and other debris in the run-off.

Subject: Homeowners behind on assessments
If you are a homeowner in Cape Town Village South subdivision who are behind on assessments the Homeowners Association is imploring you to not ignore letters from City and Village Tax Office, Sandberg Phoenix & von Gontard or Dana McKitrick law firms. Just ignoring the communications results in very large and burdensome legal fees which are charged to the homeowners. It’s very troublesome when notifying and asking homeowners to pay assessments and it falls on deaf ears, especially when we ( the HOA ) is willing to work with you to clear the debt. Sadly, to continue down this path will eventually cost you the ownership of your home. Please listen to the voice of reason and do what is right. We’re waiting to help you.
Contact City & Village Tax Office @ 314-739-4800

News for the week of 8/16/21:
Subject: Request for Trustees
Cape Town Village South is approaching a crossroads in determining the future of the subdivision. Either we’ll move forward with continuing improvements or regress from the progress made in the last 5-6 years.
There has been quite a large turnover in the ownership of homes recently. There’s a good side and a bad side to the changes of ownership. The good side is an influx of younger owners who (I believe along with many of us who have been here for years) truly care about their investment in homeownership. The bad side is that homes are also being purchased as rental properties which in turn cause a continual turnover of people coming and going which means instability in the subdivision.
Moving forward, the HOA indentures are in need of a complete rewrite to fix this problem and any other issues homeowners may be interested in correcting. It would be a large undertaking as it would require approximately 220 “yes” votes out of some 350 homeowners and we know from a previous experience would require door-to-door collection of votes. This would require homeowners who would be willing to help the trustees reach the necessary votes for passage.
Having spoken to 2 separate law firms it would cost approximately $5000 to $9000 to totally rewrite the indentures. So, as a community we need to decide what our homes and the future of this subdivision are worth. Jefferson County Road Works currently maintains the streets, storm sewer inlets, signs, etc. This is a 5 year agreement and we are well into year 3. At year 5 the county will assess the program and decide if they will continue the program or end it.
I personally, as almost all of you would agree don’t particularly care for the yearly “special assessment” which is part of the HOA indentures. If Jefferson County stops maintaining the streets there’s a real problem. The way the indentures are currently written the HOA can only collect $150.00 a year per household outside of a special assessment. That results in approximately $53,000.00 a year if everyone were to pay their assessments, which should be noted does not happen. City and Village Tax Office then takes 10% of that amount leaving about $48,000.00 a year to maintain everything, and since not everyone pays all or even part of their assessments it means the subdivision would once again fall into financial hardship from lack of funds.
You can see where the assessments are spent by viewing: http://www.capetownvillagesouth.com/2021-statements.html
I, (Joe S.) plan on resigning at the next HOA meeting if not sooner. Kerry S. has agreed to stay on as a trustee. We’re in need of 2 more individuals to volunteer as trustees. Please consider volunteering as our future depends on those willing to run the HOA. The job doesn’t require a lot of time and I will help newly elected trustees learn the ropes as it were.

Thank you to all of you who live in Cape Town Village South for reading this open letter and consider the request for trustee as well as a rewrite of the indentures.
Thanks,
Joe

6/29/21 Attention Homeowners
Message relayed from your trustees, recent Waste Management inconsistent service.
(To affected homeowners) Our sincere apologies for the inconsistent service Cape Town Village South has received lately. We have been significantly under-staffed these last few months due to a severe shortage in available commercial drivers in the local transportation industry. We are actively hiring and recruiting new drivers every day to get back on track, and are also working on a number of logistical changes to help stabilize service.
With this being said, we are currently unable to guarantee service on a specific day due to the uncontrollable nature of staffing today. We can guarantee service by the end of the following business day should we be unable to complete service on the planned day. We encourage residents to leave their trash out and accessible for us.
Also, residents are encouraged to sign up for automated service alerts notifying of potential service disruption. They can do so by calling customer service at 1-800-964-8988 and providing their address or by emailing customer service at [email protected].
Thank you for your continued patience and please know we are working as hard as possible to recruit and hire new drivers and return to the state of predictable service you folks have come to know and expect.

(Updated 5/25/21)
The Trustees are waiting to hear from Jefferson County Public Works to see if they'll help with costs since the pipe runs under Somerville between storm and water inlets. We are thrilled to report we received a bid much lower than expected. We believe we can get this work done and not send the HOA into Debt.
5/24/21 Attention Homeowners
Message from your trustees, Storm Water Runoff Piping.
Cape Town Village South is waiting on a bid from a highly recommended contractor, Kelpe Contracting. There is approximately 200 ft. of rusted and deteriorating galvanized pipe. A sleeve would have been the least expensive option but the diameter of the existing pipe is 42” requiring the new sleeve to be 36” diameter which may not be able to handle heavy rains. Due to the Covid situation, plastic piping costs have soared. Also, to handle the additional run-off from Somerville Dr., the 42” pipe transitions to 60” pipe. Until an inspection has been completed we are unsure of how many feet will be of the 60" pipe. We are also looking at replacing the old 60" galvanized pipe with 60" concrete pipe as there may be a cost savings. When this work commences, the 5500 block of Somerville Dr. would be closed 1 day between the 2 storm water inlets. Also of note, the Cape Town Village South HOA currently does not have the necessary funds to cover the cost of replacing the entire Storm Water Runoff Piping system in question. The Trustees are examining 2 options, borrow the money or wait and continue to save for this project, at the earliest we will post an update this coming week.

"ADDENDUM: 9/9/20 DECISION HAS BEEN MADE IN FAVOR OF JEFFERSON COUNTY PLOWING THE ROADS FOR 2020/2021 SEASON."
THE ISSUE BELOW IS CLOSED.
Your Trustees are looking for homeowner input.
Question: Should Cape Town Village South turn over snowplowing / salting to Jefferson County for the 2020 Winter season?
Per a discussion with Karen of Jefferson County Public Works they have 3 new plow trucks which will be dedicated to subdivisions.
Depending on the weather, we could possibly save between $3-5k which could be used for other urgent matters. A large expense would be the replacement of the 4 foot diameter (4') galvanized drainage pipe of which the bottom is rusted out. This pipe runs under the common ground and Somerville which then empties into the ditch running adjacent to Hillsboro Valley Park Rd. We estimate it is going to cost between $80-$100k to replace the pipe. As you can see, we currently do not have the funds for this project (8/20/20). The Subdivision needs to be as frugal as possible with the HOA expenditures. Let us know your thoughts ASAP by contacting us by phone or by agreeing or disagreeing via the survey below.

However, at that time we will go over our financial records and show with FACTS not unsubstantiated claims that we homeowners are NOT sitting on vast sums of monies and why we as trustees and good stewards of all of your hard earned dollars ( assessments ) are being saved as much as possible toward future necessary projects which are critical for the survival this subdivision.

November 2019 Income & Disbursement Statement has been posted here.
Road replacement for 2019 has been completed. New concrete replacement will resume sometime in 2020.
Important Notice:
At this time (December 2019) Cape Town Village South has reached approximately one third of the subdivision either not paying Assessments on time or is taking advantage of Legal Service's not collecting Assessments until the home owner is at least $1000.00 delinquent.
Starting January 1st. 2020, after the home owner has reached a $500.00 delinquency and has not contacted City and Village Tax Service to reach a payment plan that will satisfy the balance due and to remain currently paid on time, then at that time the subdivision attorney's will file in court for a judgement against the delinquent homeowner.
In extreme instances of Delinquency action may be taken to pursue the sale of the property to pay the subdivision what is due.
Per the indentures, the homeowner is liable for all legal services costs and court costs.
With only two thirds of the subdivision membership paying their Assessments, the subdivision will eventually fall behind in adequate funds and will not be able to pay the bills due and keep up with needed repairs at the same time.
All members of the subdivision need to stay current on their assessments. The subdivision owners who pay their assessments should not suffer for those who don't.

They will move in and start with parking signs , door hangers and information on dates etc... to pass on to the homeowners with as much information as possible. There are no concerns of not having the same completion time.
Thanks for your patience.
---------------------------------
News for the week of 9/16/19:
Road work will start the week of 9/23 at Capetown Village Road and Belmont. If you come down Capetown Village Road, and turn right, that is the start point. They will do the right hand lane first and continue up Belmont, onto Winthrop, and then Braintree, and lastly back around onto Belmont to the starting point. Then if all goes as planned they will begin on the opposite side of the street and repeat the process.
When an area is excavated it will be rocked in over night, in front of driveways. Excavations will normally only be open one day then concrete poured the next. The dwell time for cure is three days. After that it will be driveable.
During the 3 days of concrete curing drivers will have to find alternate parking. Also During this process it may take several more days after the curing process has completed if machinery or materials are still preventing parking in front of your home from the next section adjacent being poured or curing. Not all drivers will have to wait more than 3 days but there may be a percentage who do.
Other Important Things to remember:
Please talk to your neighbors soon about parking at their property, in their driveway or on the street in front of their house.
Please be mindful and patient with your neighbors. no need to add more stress than may have already accumulated.
If you have a blocked mailbox your mail will have to be picked up at the Fenton Post Office. 10 Fenton Plaza, Fenton, MO.
They will put up no parking signs and other traffic directions.
They will photo driveways prior to excavation.
Work is expected to take 6+ weeks total.

Road Work News
Upcoming Road Work to begin soon.
Streets will be marked the week of 9/16/19, weather permitting.
Actual roadwork to begin 9/23/19, weather permitting.
During the week of 9/16/19 the Jefferson County Road Department will come out and mark the slabs to be replaced. The Road Department will then begin replacing sections of concrete the next week on 9/23/19 on Belmont, Winthrop, Braintree, Cambridge, Somerville Drive, and Somerville Spur. Work expected to be completed on these roads before the colder fall weather comes.
Homeowners please make arrangements if possible with your neighbors across the street to park there if concrete is being replaced in front of your, or their driveways. The Director says long sections of concrete will be replaced, and if homeowners don't make arrangements to park across the street it is likely they may have to park a long distance away.
While these long sections of concrete are being replaced, it will be impossible to park in those areas. Our streets are narrow, and with one side torn out for a long distance homeowners can not park on the street across from that work. It would make the street impassable if they did.
ALL ILLEGALLY PARKED VEHICLES WILL BE TOWED AT OWNERS EXPENSE, NO EXCEPTIONS.
The Road Department will only barricade the new concrete for about three days. The Director says that by then it should reach 2500 PSI and the barricades will be removed.
If replacement occurs on mailbox side of street, mail will have to be picked up at the Fenton Post Office ( be sure to bring ID ).
Removing barriers or damaging concrete will be subject to prosecution by Jefferson County.

Subdivision Updates
Completed work or near completion:
* $10,000.00 section of street that became unstable on Winthrop Dr. has been replaced.
* Section of sewer line on Plymouth Dr. has been replaced. Digging up the driveway and front yard of the house until good "old" piping was found to connect "new" piping too was required. New driveway will be poured in the near future, possibly along with a new sewer top and lid.
Work yet to be started:
* Replacement of hundreds of feet of four foot pipe between the woods section on Somerville Dr. going all the way to the creek on Hillsboro Valley Park Rd. The old galvanized Piping has rusted out and is causing sink holes.
* Wooden Foot Bridge is in need of new footings, wood replacement, and paint.
* The creek going to the pipe needs to be clear cut.
For anyone interested in what is going on in Cape Town Village South these are just some of the improvements now and in the very near future,
Thank You.

Attention Homeowners
Jim O'Connor went to Hillsboro last week (9/5/18) and turned in the votes to be counted and verified by the county. He was told there are now four subdivisions accepted to date. The application has to be read to the county and voted on three times to be accepted. Our subdivision will be read at the end of September for the first time along with six other subdivisions that have been read before. By the time ours will come up for the third and final reading to be voted on for acceptance it will be at the end of October. We have no idea of how many other subdivisions will be in the process by that time. If they vote to accept us we will not expect any repairs from them this year because we are having our streets treated come the snow or ice. We hope this will happen. We as your Trustees worked hard to get this process completed even if it was slowed down by lack of interest by some homeowners. The homeowners who attended our special meeting to vote or those who voted after the meeting we thank you!

November Income & Disbursement Statement has been posted here
It has been reported some homeowners are blowing their fallen tree leaves into the streets and if enough end up in the storm sewers it will clog them. If you see a neighbor blowing leaves into the street please remind them to dispose of yard waste in bags or burn them. All homeowners in CTVS are partly financially responsible for repairing / un-clogging sewers which is costly, funds that could have instead gone to further repairing our streets.
Thank You,
Capetown Village South Trustees

News for the week of 7/4/16:
The concrete work may start again next week weather permitting. This next round will be approximately twice as much as the first sections replaced and by the time it is finished almost all of the $79,000.00 in the account will have been used to replace damaged street sections. We had promised to try to replace approximately $60,000.00 worth this year and are far exceeding it. We have enough in the account to pay all upcoming bills and do a few more improvements before the next Assessment is due. Thanks everyone again for your patience during this process.News for the week of 6/20/16:

News for the week of 6/13/16:
After Tuesday, Boling Concrete will take a one week break for these first replaced sections to harden. When they come back they will be replacing about twice as much as they already have. In less than a month the worst sections of concrete should be replaced and ready to drive on. This will be the largest amount of street replacement to take place since the subdivision was founded in 1976 and next year we hope to replace even more. Thank you everyone for your patience during this process, once completed our subdivision's improved, smoother streets will be enjoyed by everyone from kids riding bikes to dog walkers and even the mailman.

News for the week of 5/23/16:
Boling Concrete expects to be able to start replacement of the streets about the middle of June. They are going to replace around 800 feet on one side of the streets with the money available for this year, at this time. The sections will be what the Trustees think are the one's in the worst shape on the major routes in the subdivision. We will address the next of the worst sections next year and hopefully we will be able to fix some on all of the streets. This will continue as long as the current trustee's hold their positions. The replacements will be a 6 1/2 bag mixture that will be 8 inches thick, with joints at every 15 ft. and sealed. There will be #4 wire in it the same as they use on the highway. It will have 4 inches of MoDot type 4 rock as a sub base, the same as St. Louis County requires.
The trustee's wish to thank all the home owners for their patience. Boling Concrete was the lowest bidder and after reviewing past and present work that they have completed we feel that we have found the best contractor for our subdivision.

After obtaining bids for street concrete replacement the winner will be Boling Concrete Construction. They will start replacing sections as soon as they can. More sections will be replaced all summer long as long as we have the money to do so. We will replace the street sections on the worst sections of the most traveled streets first continuing until all defective sections have been replaced, which will take years. This will be done as promised, please be patient. In the mean time potholes etc. will continue to be repaired as needed along with the required subdivision maintenance to bring it back to Jefferson County requirements. The sheriff's department has now promised to start giving out tickets for running stop signs and speeding. They will also cite for unlicensed off road vehicles and motorcycles.

News for the week of 6/15/15:
Annual Special Assessment
Through the efforts of many volunteers and your board of trustees, they have achieved what was thought impossible. They devoted many long arduous hours to accomplish this task. The eligible voters in our subdivision passed the annual special assessment, and averted the imminent financial collapse of our subdivision. There was no other viable choice in resolving the situation, other than the aforementioned vote, to sustain financial viability and avoid bankruptcy of the subdivision.
Now, we will begin the long road to recovery, which will not be an easy one, but has to be done. As funds are received, we will begin to make necessary repairs as well as begin collection of past due assessment fees. We will use appropriate litigation, if necessary, in the collection of fees from those who have not paid.
Our intent is to put the same force of will and effort into making this subdivision one of which you, as a homeowner, will be proud! It will not happen all at once. We hope that over the next three years, you will see quite a difference; in the condition of our streets, and the subdivision in general.
---------------------------------
News for the week of 6/8/15:
Homeowners,
To everyone that agreed to the special assessment. Without your vote of confidence, this wouldn't have been possible. With the passage of these additional monies, with time, we'll be able to make a subdivision we can all be proud of while protecting our investments. Look for a newsletter to follow.
