Mission and programs · 2023

• FORMED IN 2010, THE DOWNTOWN PARTNERSHIP CLEAN & SAFE PROGRAM WORKS HARD TO KEEP DOWNTOWN LOOKING ITS BEST THROUGH ENHANCED MAINTENANCE, SAFETY, UNHOUSED CARE, AND BEAUTIFICATION SERVICES ON BEHALF OF THOSE WHO LIVE, WORK, AND PLAY WITHIN THE 275 BLOCKS THAT MAKE UP THE PBID. RESIDENTS, BUSINESSES, AND PROPERTY OWNERS CAN HAVE CONFIDENCE IN DOWNTOWN BECAUSE OF THE BEST PRACTICES, CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT, AND RECOGNIZED EXCELLENCE THAT THE CLEAN & SAFE TEAM BRINGS TO THE RESPONSIBILITY OF SERVING DOWNTOWN'S URBAN NEIGHBORHOODS. FUNDED BY DOWNTOWN PROPERTY OWNERS, THE CLEAN & SAFE SERVICES PROVIDED WITHIN THE NEIGHBORHOODS OF CITY CENTER, COLUMBIA, CORTEZ HILL, EAST VILLAGE, GASLAMP QUARTER, AND MARINA ARE ABOVE AND BEYOND THOSE OTHERWISE AVAILABLE THROUGH ANY EXISTING GOVERNMENT ENTITY.

• THE CITY CENTER BID REPRESENTS THE 53 BLOCKS OF BUSINESSES THAT MAKE UP DOWNTOWN SAN DIEGO'S CITY CENTER NEIGHBORHOOD. THE CITY CENTER BID PROVIDES THE RESOURCES NECESSARY TO IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF LIFE, CREATE A VIBRANT DESTINATION FOR SHOPPING, DINING, NIGHTLIFE AND TOURISM, AND PROMOTE EVERYTHING THE BID HAS TO OFFER POTENTIAL VISITORS AND RESIDENTS. TO SUPPORT ITS ACTIVITIES THE CITY CENTER BID RECEIVES FUNDING FROM BOTH BUSINESS ASSESSMENTS AND PARKING DISTRICT FUNDS. PARKING DISTRICT FUNDS ARE USED FOR WAYFINDING AND MOBILITY IMPROVEMENTS WITHIN THE DISTRICT.

• THROUGH ITS MEMBERSHIP AND EVENTS DEPARTMENT, THE DSDP PROVIDES CONNECTIONS, RESOURCES, AND SUPPORT AT VARYING LEVELS DEPENDING ON MEMBERS' NEEDS. MEMBERS OF THE DSDP INCLUDE COMMUNITY LEADERS, REGIONAL DECISION-MAKERS, BUSINESS LEADERS, INDUSTRY PROFESSIONALS, DOWNTOWN ADVOCATES, AND ENGAGED RESIDENTS WHO ARE ALL COMMITTED TO THE ECONOMIC PROSPERITY AND CULTURAL VITALITY OF SAN DIEGO'S URBAN CENTER. THE DSDP PROVIDES A FULL CALENDAR OF PUBLIC AND EXCLUSIVE EVENTS FOR ITS NEARLY 300 MEMBERS FOCUSED ON PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT, NETWORKING, AND CONNECTIONS.

As filed on the 2023 return.

Listed in Part VII

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.

Schedule J

Part I's answers as filed. A line not listed was left unanswered; on lines 1a and 3 that means the box was not checked.
