The aim of this paper is to introduce business ımprovement districts (BIDs) to the Turkish local government literature. A definition of BIDs is presented and their history, functions, and organzational forms are discussed. It is argued that BIDs can help solve some of the local and urban problems in Turkey and that they are compatible with the Turkish adminstrative traditions and legal structure. The participatory practices of BIDs are compatible with the ancient guild traditions of Turkey. It is shown that legal frameworks of BIDs are compatible with the Turkish Constitution and the General Law of Municipalities. The current legal framework of the organized ındustrial zones can be used as a reference frame when drafting a possible future BID enabling legislation for Turkey. The key lessons learned from the BID experiences in the United States are discussed to help solve potential future problems with BIDs in Turkey.
