ABOUT EBID

The Eisenhower Business Improvement District (EBID) represents an important movement by property owners and business leader’s in Macon’s Eisenhower Business Corridor – Eisenhower Parkway from I-475 to Oglesby Place. This movement will rebuild a positive perception of the Eisenhower Commercial Corridor, supplement city services to raise the standard of excellence, encourage business recruitment and retention, and promote businesses in response to challenges from other competitive developments.

Retaining Current Macon Businesses

Every EBID business plays an important role in the vitality of the area and more importantly our community. EBID is able to maintain focus of the current and rising needs of our businesses through our Board of Directors made up of property and business owners in the district.

We strive to keep open lines of communication with our businesses to adequately address needs and ensure we are the best place to grow and serve the community and visitors.
