Notes:
3. Commercial rentals will be assessed for each building location, not each tenant space.
The above codes represent known business activity currently within the district. New businesses that are within the district will be assessed on a pro-rata basis. If a business code is not listed above, beneficiary level will be determined by the advisory board or default to a tertiary level until the work plan can be updated.
1. Fee for individual business owners with multiple business licenses/operations at the same address will be based on the single highest category reflective of their primary business operation. In the event of a dispute, the CCAD Advisory Board shall review the request and make disposition on the appropriate category.
2. Business Owners with multiple business locations within the BID area will be assessed separately at each location.
4. Multiple independent business owners at the same address will be assessed separately at their respective rates excluding beauty and health service professionals.
