The Town Center Area Community Improvement District (TCACID) was established in 1997 as a self-taxing district to promote infrastructure improvements. In 2000, a resolution was passed at the annual meeting to expand the purposes of the TCACID to provide for additional services and facilities for parks and recreation areas and facilities, as well as land use planning, development and improvement consistent with Cobb County’s coordinated and comprehensive planning.

The TCACID is governed by a 7 member board of directors. Six directors are voted in by the property owners and 1 member is appointed by the Cobb County Board of Commissioners. The board elects its own officers annually.

The 257 commercial properties in the TCACID pay an additional 5 mills on their property tax to advance road projects, sidewalks and other improvements to provide accessibility and mobility within the Town Center area. The TCACID has a six year life span and is currently in its second term (2003-2009).

Revenue for the TCACID is based on the Cobb County Tax digest.

In 2004, the CID completed a Master Plan, the RoadMap, that integrates transportation, land use, market conditions, and implementation guidelines for the Town Center Area. Also completed was Livable Initiative Center study, named SuPurb.
