What is a BIA?
A BIA is a geographic area in a municipality that allows local businesses and property owners to join together and make physical improvements and promote the local economy. The Council for the Township of Woolwich supports the BIA and is responsible for appointing members to the Elmira BIA and approving their annual budgets.
