Town Center CID launches new website

The Town Center Community Improvement District announces its new website at TownCenterCID.com. This site presents the CID as a driving force behind projects that have benefited Cobb County’s business community for 23 years, according to a Town Center CID statement. The website also provides a more significant web presence for the CID’s creative placemaking focus in the form of its nonprofit arm, the Town Center Community Alliance, the statement added.

Developed by Marietta agency 524 Creative, the new site’s design fully integrates the CID’s organizational vision and mission. The visual experience builds upon the CID’s brand, which they introduced in 2015.

“Our fresh website design is an evolution of our established visual brand - one that we are thrilled to roll out across all our upcoming marketing,” said Tracy Rathbone Styf, executive director of the Town Center CID.

“The site perfectly represents its incomparable character as well as the CID’s overall vision - to make Town Center a vibrant, accessible community and an inviting regional destination,” she added.

“We love that innovation is an integral part of the Town Center CID brand and an explicit focus of their board,” said April Wright, principal of 524 Creative. “Their openness to new ideas and boundary-pushing consistently make them trailblazers in their field.”

Founded in 1997, the Town CID is dedicated to the betterment of the Town Center area through transportation infrastructure, safety improvements, beautification and other projects that enhance property value by increasing interest and investment in the community, according to Styf.

The Town Center CID uses funds from voluntary commercial real estate taxes to implement its projects.
