Business Improvement District Resiliency Act of 2024
The Business Improvement District Resiliency Act of 2024 allows Business Improvement Districts to install interactive kiosks in commercial areas that offer free Wi-Fi, maps, and local business information. Under this bill, a single private provider would be granted an exclusive 20-year contract to install and maintain these kiosks, with the provider covering all construction and maintenance costs. The District of Columbia would receive a share of the revenue generated from digital advertisements displayed on the kiosks, which must include content promoting public safety and local minority-owned businesses. Additionally, the law requires that at least one community member or resident serve on the BID Board to ensure local representation.
