Was just on the corktown.ca website. From the looks of the site, especially the most recent newsletter, this is one on-the-ball BIA: http://corktown.ca/2012/12/fall-2012-corktowner-available-for-download/
Great work, GraphicMatt and others!
The Corktown Residents and Business Association is NOT a BIA. If they were they would have access to City funds and merchants in their area would have to be members. Other areas tend to have official BIAs and separate resident groups - a good example is the adjacent St Lawrence area where the BIA and the Neighbourhood Assocaition now share the same boundaries (the BIA expanded in the last year or so) and they work closely together on matters of mutual interest.
