project highlights
We’re excited to implement new and recurring projects that make a positive impact. From lowering taxes and other key advocacy, to promoting the area and enhancing the street – there are many ways we aim to support local businesses. We have one of the smallest BIA budgets (as a newer BIA relative to others) and maximize it through creativity and collaborative efforts!

community spirit

The West Broadway BIA co-chairs the Vancouver BIA Partnership Marketing committee, and developed and maintains the partnership website. Click here for our presentation of collaborative initiatives to support businesses and retail neighbourhoods across the city.
local developments
Click here for our presentation about new property developments and advocacy, including commercial property assessments and taxes.
The West Broadway business area has wonderful independent property owners and family developers that are also merchants. The “air tax” charged for a property’s development potential is exorbitant and unaffordable – forcing businesses to close, and property owners to develop or sell if they can’t.
We’ve presented the issues and proposed solutions to support both business tenants and property owners, speaking at the BIABC conference and Phoenix Group meeting, and circulated the presentation to the City of Vancouver and other stakeholders.
