Business Development Districts

Business Development Districts (BDDs) are a public financing tool, used to promote redevelopment, invest in public infrastructure, and fund other community-improvement projects. As part of the Village's Board’s long-term strategy to maintain and enhance the Village’s revenue base, the Village Board established four BDDs in the Village in March 2017, which went into effect on July 1st.

Districts

The four Business Development Districts are:

• 31st Street Central / Barnsdale Road
• 31st Street East (the west side of Maple Avenue, between 31st Street and 30th Street)
• 31st Street West (northeast and southeast corners of the intersection of La Grange Road and 31st Street)
• The Village Market, including Memorial Park and Plymouth Place

How to Request Funding

Property owners, businesses and prospective tenants interested in applying for BDD funding are encouraged to review the Village's BDD Policies and Procedures (PDF) and complete an Application (PDF). Questions regarding BDD funding opportunities may be directed to the Administration Department.
