Cumberland District

About Cumberland District

The Cumberland Community Improvement District (CID), Georgia’s first CID, is a public-private assessment district in northwest Atlanta. It is the mechanism by which local commercial property owners advance needed infrastructure projects. Projects that enhance property values as well as the greater community. Originally formed in 1988 by business leaders interested in improving access to the highways for the emerging Cumberland submarket, the CID’s single wish evolved into a master road plan for the area. Over the years, that original plan expanded to include additional road and transit infrastructure improvements, streetscapes and beautification projects, bicycle and walking trails, alternate commute programs and services as well as community planning.
