What this means to you
For residents, this means that the West Hollywood Design District will continue to receive funding for events and marketing, which can enhance the local economy and community vibrancy. While the assessment is on businesses, residents may benefit indirectly through increased property values and improved local amenities. However, there will be no direct cost to residents unless they own businesses in the district.
