New Bedford
The Public’s Radio: “Business Groups Battle over the Spirit of Downtown New Bedford” quotes Director’s Office Labs Fellow Tim Tompkins
Tompkins said he’s seen some BIDs accelerate gentrification, and others nurture and protect what a community already values. Tompkins said the direction a BID takes is determined by who’s on the board, and what their priorities are. In New Bedford, Tompkins said, "There’s an active discussion and debate about that, which I actually think is really good for the setting up of one of these organizations."
