Cost: The assessment rate (cost to the parcel owner) is based on parcel type and size (Per SQ. Ft.). Retail-zoned parcels are assessed at 0.07 cents per square foot of land, with office-zoned parcels at 0.045 cents.
Renewal Process: SMPPBID can be renewed if it receives signed petitions from property owners who will pay more than 50 percent of the assessments. Please return your signed petition at your earliest convenience. Petitions will be emailed or mailed. You may utilize a digital signature. Once the petition threshold is met, the City will mail ballots to property owners. Please return signed ballots quickly in order for the PBID to
meet its deadline for renewal. If the City receives more YES ballots than NO ballots,
weighted by the amount of assessment, then the Council may vote to approve the
renewal of SMPPBID.

In May 2020, SMP contracted with a full-time CHPD officer. The District’s dedicated police officer patrols the District every Tuesday through Friday for 10 hours daily. This committed patrol has resulted in quicker response times and strategic partnerships with property and business owners, asset protection departments, managers, and employees. In addition to serving as a deterrent, the officer executes crime prevention measures, hardening the business against criminal activity.

SMP has organized the highly successful Brews in the Burbs event every year. The
2024 event garnered over 1.1 million impressions, 10K engagements, over 5K in unique
website visitors, and $20K in paid and in-kind sponsorships. The event, which drew over
700 attendees, has been instrumental in bringing the attention of a new group of
customers to the District, including those from the secondary trade zone.
SMP's continued efforts in digital, print, and radio advertising have effectively promoted
the District and created awareness among businesses. The Holiday headquarters
promotions and the popular Magical Moments holiday experiences have successfully
attracted hundreds of visitors to the District during the fourth quarter. The holiday decor,
such as animated street poles, has enhanced the visitor experience.
SMP's partnership with property and business owners on events throughout the year,
including at popular locations like Pizza Rev, Dos Coyotes, Citrus Town Center,
Marketplace at Birdcage, and Sunrise Mall, has been commendable. These events
have helped to bring the community together and fostered a sense of camaraderie
among the local businesses.
Overall, SMP's efforts have been remarkable in promoting the District and its
businesses, and the success of Brews in the Burbs and other events is a testament to
their hard work and dedication.
