What does a BIA do?

A BIA can make things better by enhancing and promoting the area – making the area safer, beautiful, vibrant, and connected – which will benefit all types of businesses and the community. Valuable projects may include banners, street cleaning, murals, plazas, gardens, security patrol, events, advocacy, community building, marketing, and social media. BIAs consult with businesses for input to implement initiatives that will enhance the business area.

Value and representation

The cost to be part of the BIA is nominal in relation to the many benefits businesses will receive. This is possible because businesses collectively contribute to an organisation that represents the entire business area and is accountable to each business. A BIA is a valuable tool that will maximize resources and connect merchants, customers, community, and government – working together to make things better.

Accountability and inclusivity

Businesses have a say in what a BIA does. A BIA is led by a volunteer Board of local business and commercial property owners. A BIA consults with members throughout the year through emails, monthly meetings, and an AGM each September. Participation and input are welcome!
