Downtown Business Improvement District (BID) Services Priorities Survey
Downtown Business Improvement District (BID) Services Priorities Survey
A BID is a type of municipal service district authorized by NC General Statutes that is defined by ordinance upon a finding that the district is in need of one or more defined services, facilities, or functions to a greater extent than the remainder of the city.
On June 11, 2024, City Council passed a resolution that outlines desired BID services, reporting and engagement requirements for the contracted operator as well as the governance/advisory structure to be implemented by the operator.
Initial services to be provided by the BID include: Safety & Hospitality, Enhanced Cleaning, and Special Projects. The City will issue a Request for Proposals (RFP) to contract with a service provider who will deliver these services within the defined district, click here to see map.
City staff is now seeking further input from the public - including those who live, work, or visit downtown - on additional aspects of service needs and priorities for the district. The input received through this survey will further shape the service requirements outlined in the RFP, and ultimately the services provided by the contracted BID operator.

This survey will take approximately 5-8 minutes to complete.
What will the City do with this information?
Input received from the survey will be used to inform the services offered by the service provider.
