Welcome to Special Service Area #45

SSA45 District Attractions

Maple Park Marketplace

    What is a Special Service Area District?

    Special Service Areas, known as Business Improvement Districts or BIDs in other cities, are local tax districts that fund expanded services and programs through a localized property tax levy within contiguous areas. The enhanced services and programs are in addition to those currently provided through the City.


    SSA-funded projects typically include but are not limited to: public way maintenance and beautification; district marketing and advertising; business retention/attraction, special events, and promotional activities; auto and bike transit; security; façade improvements; and other commercial and economic development initiatives.


    The City contracts with local non-profits, called Service Providers, to manage SSAs. Mayorally appointed SSA Commissioners for each SSA district oversee and recommend the annual services, budget, and Service Provider Agency to the City. There are currently 57 active SSAs in Chicago.
