| The formation of the
Community Benefit District for San Franciso's Fisherman’s
Wharf was overwhelmingly approved by property owners
in the area. The Fisherman's Wharf CBD was ratified
by the San Francisco Board of Supervisors in April 2005.
The funding raised through the assessments is being
used to enhance, beautify, clean, market and to begin
urban planning in Fisherman's Wharf. |
| |
| In May of 2006, the
FWCBD received notification of acceptance of their request
for 501(c)(3) status from the IRS, which allows the
organization to apply for federal, state and locally
funded grants, as well as to seek out sponsorships from
companies with a philanthropic division. |
| |
| The Fisherman's
Wharf CBD formed the port-side business based Community
Benefit District in December of 2006. With the strength
of both the land and port-side CBD’s, the Wharf
community will develop marketing, security, urban planning,
way finding signage and emergency preparedness programs.
The Community Benefit District has also served as a
catalyst for unification of Fisherman's Wharf constituents
to support a positive change to their San Francisco
neighborhood. |
| |
 |
The
purpose of the Fisherman’s Wharf Community Benefit
District is to preserve and enhance its vast San Francisco
waterfront landscape and multi-cultural heritage, while
integrating modern efficiencies to enrich the experience
of visitors from both near and far through:
|
The
Fisherman’s Wharf Community Benefit District
was founded in November of 2005 by the business
and property owners of the San Francisco neighborhood.
The district is funded through an annual assessment
for 15 years from the property owners.
