ABOUT THE B.I.D.

The Port Jefferson Business Improvement District was founded in 1998 pursuant to Article 19-A of the General Municipal Law of the State of New York.  The B.I.D. Board of Directors oversees and implements an annual budget of approximately $30,000.  The funds are raised through tax assessments from the over 300 members of the district.
