The Mpls Downtown Improvement District (MDID) is a business-led, 501(c)6 non-profit that leads and collaborates to create a clean, green, safe and vibrant downtown by convening, developing solutions, activating and continuously improving existing programs.

MDID is primarily funded by special service assessments authorized by a City of Minneapolis ordinance. By state statute, only commercial properties are required to pay the MDID assessments. However, as all properties benefit from an improved public realm downtown, some non-profit, government and residential properties voluntarily contribute. More than 64 million square feet of Gross Building Area (GBA) are located within the 120 block boundaries of MDID. Properties are assessed for directly lineal services based on lineal frontage and for more globally benefitting services based on GBA. Charges are prorated to properties based on location within pedestrian service level areas. This three-part method best reflects the volume of people needing service and the level of services delivered.

The Board of Directors is comprised of downtown property owners, employers, residents and leaders representing key constituencies and areas of expertise. The boards of the MDID and the mpls downtown council allow for the same individuals to serve on the boards of both organizations, establishing the MDID as a wholly-controlled subsidiary of mdc. MDID staff oversee vendors, develop programs, advocate for the public realm, communicate with stakeholders and administer the organization.

MDID is a WONDERFUL service. I talk about it with friends including those from other cities. I also mentioned it as way to encourage my professional association to have their annual conference in Minneapolis next year!
