The Commercial District Revitalization Program (CDRP) provides greater opportunities and assistance for local business districts to create vibrant destinations to shop, work and play locally.
Whether you want to start a new district, lead your existing district to a new level, or simply learn more about the resources for businesses and neighborhoods in an area, we can help.

Funding (as available) - Financial assistance and/or identification of funding opportunities to increase the social capacity and financial sustainability of commercial districts in partnership with their surrounding neighborhoods.
Business Improvement District Formation and Support - Business districts interested in learning about creating a BID can work with city staff and consultants to explore these possibilities. Many districts choose to form merchants associations, read more here.
