Help support long-term business growth and boost local economies

Community Improvement Districts (CIDs) are an internationally recognised tool for businesses and the community to work together to create great neighbourhoods. CIDs are business-led, place-based partnerships that bring businesses together to support and grow local economies, high streets and centres. They help enhance local trading environments, encouraging people to get out into their local neighbourhoods and retail centres to enjoy local goods, services and activities on foot.

About the CID Pilot Program

The CID Pilot Program (formerly known as Business Improvement District Pilot Program) is a 2-stage initiative led by the NSW Government, including:

• Stage 1 Registration of interest – Organisations can express their interest in participating in the program and to help shape the upcoming Stage 2 Funding Round.
• Stage 2 Funding Round – Formal applications for funding by eligible parties assessed by the NSW Government.

The CID Pilot Program will develop an evidence base that will help to inform a consistent state-wide approach to CID policy in NSW.
