Soul of the City Business Improvement District Temporary Amendment Act of 2026

This bill creates a temporary Business Improvement District (BID) called "Soul of the City" for a specific geographic area in Washington, D.C., authorized under the 1996 Business Improvement District Act. It directly affects property owners within the defined boundary (detailed by lot numbers in the bill), who would pay BID assessments to fund local services like cleaning, safety, and marketing. The BID would operate under a temporary framework, ending by the bill's expiration in 2026 or if the BID dissolves earlier. The legislation establishes the legal structure for the BID's formation, boundaries, and tax collection authority without altering existing district laws.
