About Us

What is the Historic Downtown Twin Falls Business Improvement District?

The Business Improvement District of Twin Falls was the first one formed under Idaho State code #50-2061-2611, for the purpose of (1) physical improvement (2) promotion of public events (3) general promotion and improvement of trade activities with the District. Twin Falls City Council, created the Business Improvement District on November 1, 1982, and includes an area of twenty-four blocks and over 225 business. The District is governed by the City Council and is run by an elected Board of Directors and a paid Director. Each business, within the District's boundaries, is automatically by law, a member of the District. On September 12, 1996, the Business Improvement District (B.I.D.) filed with the County Courthouse a Certificate to do business as Downtown Twin Falls.
