BID

BID stands for "Business Improvement District." It is a designated area within a town or city where local businesses join together and contribute additional funds to support improvement initiatives and projects that benefit the area. BIDs often focus on promoting economic growth, enhancing the attractiveness of the district, providing additional services, and increasing foot traffic and sales for businesses. They are typically managed by a board of directors, which may include representatives from local businesses, property owners, and other stakeholders. The funding for BIDs is usually generated through an additional tax or levy paid by the businesses in the district.
