The DOWNTOWN WACO PUBLIC IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT was established in 1988. Since then, more than 80 businesses have opened in the area, and the workforce has more than doubled.

The general boundaries of the district emcompass about 60 blocks on the west side of the Brazos River and an area on the east side that extends up Martin Luther King, Jr. Boulevard along the river for the equivalent of eight city blocks and about 10 blocks down Elm Street.

The public improvement district assessment of 10 cents per $100 valuation of property in the district is used only within those boundaries to provide a variety of services that increase the value and appeal of properties.

Property owners enjoy enhanced city services such as extra sweeping of streets and sidewalks, as well as a private security service to monitor the area. Additional trash receptacles, benches, planters, landscaping, and litter pick up are also provided. These enhanced services help attract businesses to the district.
