1 Why start a Neighborhood Improvement District The idea of a Neighborhood Improvement District (NID) can provide equity and ownership to communities that have been historically underserved or subject to displacement. By creating NIDs, the community can be provided with necessary resources that may otherwise not be available in their area. These resources could include things such as infrastructure improvements, funding for local businesses or initiatives, and economic development programs. In addition, NIDs can provide an opportunity for citizens to have a say in the decisions being made in their neighborhood that may otherwise be out of their control. This allows for greater equity in decision making and helps ensure a more inclusive process. As such, this is an effective way to address long-term displacement issues and ensure that the community is empowered to take ownership of its future. These improvements can improve quality of life and create a more sustainable, equitable neighborhood. A NID can be a powerful tool in creating lasting change for communities in need.

The Labyrinth The labyrinth is an invitation to walk with openness to the moving of the Spirit of Life (whoever/whatever we place our ultimate trust). The path, marked with healing herbs & plants, leads to the center and out again. To walk the labyrinth is to step away from our every day life for a moment, to slow down, to ponder, to listen, to receive guidance, healing, inspiration… Through walking, connection is realized in ones deeper self, in community and in the universe. Individuals or groups are welcome. Guidelines for walking* Prepare Breathe deeply and consciously as you head towards the labyrinth, keeping in mind your purpose for the walk. Walk While entering keep mind and heart open to growth as your eyes face downward or forward. Walk at a conscious, comfortable pace allowing others at different paces to go on by stepping aside politely when necessary. When you reach the middle, STOP and pray/meditate, then finish your walk affirming the Power/Spirit of life in the present. Reflect As you give thanks to those on the walk as well, ponder on what came in your mind and how you can use it as you carry out your existence. *(There are truly no rules to walking the labyrinth, however to fully experience spiritual relief on the path you are invited to consider these suggestions.)

NIDs are typically established as part of local zoning ordinances, in which property owners agree to assess themselves additional taxes in exchange for the public improvements they will receive. These assessments can be used to finance infrastructure projects such as street and sidewalk repairs, neighborhood beautification efforts, public safety initiatives, and economic development activities. NIDs also provide neighborhood governments with additional funding to address neighborhood needs outside of the traditional city budget process. By providing additional resources for neighborhood projects, NIDs can help improve quality of life for residents and create a more vibrant neighborhood.
