Regina City Council approves downtown expansion plans

REGINA – The Downtown Business Improvement District (BID) will be getting an additional 160 properties after a decision to expand was made at Tuesday’s city council meeting.

The expansion is estimated to bring in an additional $90,000 in membership fees, with a one per cent levy added to the properties on top of property taxes.
