This summer we had the pleasure of meeting with Carol Becker, who worked on a national study of Business Improvement Districts. The outcome was the very informative “US BID Census Report.”
The study, conducted by the Institute of Business District Management, the Rutgers University’s School of Public Affairs and Administration and funded by several member organizations of the International Downtown Association, presents a snapshot of the characteristics of BIDs in 2010 and captures such information as: the geography of BIDs; revenue sources & budget size; governance & board composition; tools for measuring performance.
You can order a full copy of the report from the International Downtown Association online store: ida-downtown.org/eweb/DynamicPage.aspx?expires=yes&Site=IDA&WebKey=b6309be3-172b-4cc0-8907-037c94906c8a
