28 Accomplishments 2020ServicesEvents and MarketingIn a typical year, the PBIA organizes at least twelve events that draw visitors from both the hyperlocal 4th Street neighborhood and larger Long Beach community. One of the districts most successful events, the artist-driven Fourth Friday series, is a cultural draw that also has a positive impact on business sales. Other events throughout the year include scavenger hunts, street fairs, and bike festivals.Business Support and Economic DevelopmentThe PBIA supports its ratepayers by connecting them to resources and keeping them informed of pertinent regulations and grant opportunities. Communication occurs through regular email correspondence, via in-person visits, and monthly general meetings. Prior to the touchdown of COVID-19, PBIA staff also conducted frequent in-person engagement with businesses. Clean and SafeTwo contract employees collaborate to maintain the public realm, remove graffiti, and maintain green spaces. At the inception of the PBIA, the district received a $375,000 grant for facade improvements; with these funds, the district had all facades painted and installed new lighting throughout the neighborhood. The district further contributes to beautification through special projects like their transformation of a concrete strip into a succulent and herb garden with rotating art installations. Staff also work on a case-by-case basis to address challenges surrounding the presence of the unhoused population on private property. Management partners directly with ratepayers to engage this population in a thoughtful and intentional manner. Whats Next?In the coming year, following the Citys emergence from COVID-19 restrictions, PBIA management plans to reignite district enthusiasm through the return of their events. Additionally, the district intends to redouble attention to ensuring the proper maintenance and upkeep of storefronts in the neighborhood. Lastly, the district hopes to engage the City on ways to expand existing parklets and create flex zones to provide a multi-use, outdoor space that retailers and restaurants could utilize as outdoor dining, curbside pickup, or an additional sales floor.
