BACKGROUND
The Downtown Culver City BID was formed in September 1988 through the adoption of Ordinance No. 98-011 (superseded by Ordinance No. 200-027) in accordance with the Parking and Business Improvement Area Law of 1989 within the California Streets and Highways Code. The structure of the BID allows for downtown businesses to levy assessments on themselves for the maintenance and improvement of public areas, promotion of business activities and the reduction of their dependence on the City for certain services. The BID work plan is managed by the BID Board in accordance with the Management Agreement between the City and the Downtown Culver City Business Association (DBA).
