Business Improvement Districts (BIDs)

Business Improvement Districts (BIDs) are designated areas within a city where local businesses collaborate to enhance their neighborhood. Funded by property owners through special taxes or assessments, BIDs focus on improving services such as cleaning, maintenance, public safety, marketing, and community events. The goal is to create a cleaner, safer, and more attractive environment that encourages economic growth and increases foot traffic. Local businesses have a direct say in how the funds are used, allowing them to address specific needs and foster a sense of community within the district.
