Business improvement districts serve as innovative economic development and revital-ization tools for urban areas across the country. Though these districts range in size, function, and structure, they typically have a common interest in improving the quality and types of services available in their areas, promoting economic development, providing a collective voice for a given area, and working with public agencies to obtain funding for projects. Typical activities include street cleanup and trash collection, security patrols, capital improvements, marketing, and event staging.
