Plain-English Summary

This bill would create a pilot program to help struggling business districts in cities and towns get the resources and training they need to revitalize their local economies and attract new businesses. The program would likely provide funding and technical assistance to business improvement organizations and local leaders so they can develop better marketing strategies, improve public spaces, and coordinate economic development efforts. Small business owners, local governments, and community organizations in participating districts would be the main beneficiaries of this support.
