Dear SIEDC Supporter... Photos from the 6Th Annual Staten Island Film Dear SIEDC Supporter... Photos from the 6th Annual Thanks to the work of staff, our Resource Development Staten Island Film Festival: Committee and several other members, our Membership is at an all-time high. As of the date of this letter, the ONLY openings we have for new membership are within the Business Council, Building & Developers Circle and Green and Clean Council. All other memberships have maxed out. I believe this success is a testament to the good product we put out, the service we provide our membership and most importantly, the quality of the membership. Congrats to everyone! I never received more of a positive response to an email than after we sent out the June 5th email blast - “Staten Island’s Lack of Product May be the Biggest Hindrance to Future Development.” Every call and email we received was in agreement with our evaluation. Only one property owner has stepped forward with a new entry. When it is all said and done, we may only have 100 acres of turnkey, industrial and commercial developable property left on Staten Island. Please keep the submissions coming. We only have 7 sites that have made the cut so far. A quick note on our South Shore Project – there is no bigger supporter of small businesses on the South Shore than Councilman Ignizio. See the feature article in this edition of SIEDC News. Our partnership with the Councilman has led to great strides in these towns. Lastly, just a reminder to everyone – please dine at our nine Executive Dining Network locations this summer. Support those businesses that support economic development! Cesar J.

Award winners are posted on www.sifi lmfestival.org 8 FROM MERCHANT PROJECT TO B.I.D This year, the Staten Island Economic Development Corporation and Councilman Vincent Ignizio launched an ambitious plan to bring the services and benefi ts of a Business Improvement District (BID) to three Staten Island towns. In just a few months, The South Shore Merchant Project has already brought holiday decorations, street cleaning, banners, and landscaping to the business centers of Annadale, Eltingville and Great Kills. The purpose of this pilot program is to let the business community taste what they could be receiving if they elected to form their own BID. Throughout New York City, sixty-four BIDS are already giving small business owners the opportunity to manage their own municipal services. The concept of a BID represents a huge step in the decentralization of City Hall and the empowerment of the business community to make decisions for itself. As merchants around the South Shore begin to notice the additional services, we hope they consider the possibilities and long term benefi ts of a BID. The novelty of these organizations has worn out. More and more, municipalities around the country are turning to BIDs as a practical solution of how to manage city services. Nearby cities like Philadelphia are now routinely using them as a means to turn around otherwise depressed areas, and its suburbs are using them as tools of economic growth. BIDs operate simultaneously as a merchant association, community organization, and a branch of local government. The combination of these duties under one umbrella, funded and run by the store owners themselves, has led more times than not to a thriving economic environment. The rest of New York City is clamoring for this self-reliance, its time Staten Island joins them and establishes its second BID. The success of the South Shore Merchant Project is already evident. Business owners from outside the pilot area have been reaching out to SIEDC and Councilman Ignizio demanding the same services. Shoppers in the three towns have remarked how clean the sidewalks are. Soon, private security will begin routine patrols for quality of life problems, and summer decorations will be on display. As a result, Ignizio has secured funding to operate the project into the next fi scal year. During that time, both he and SIEDC will be working on forming a Local Development Corporation (LDC) for the area. This is the fi rst step towards formally organizing a BID, and they are hopeful that members of the business community come forward to volunteer on the board. With cooperation and hard work, anything is possible.
