Metropolitan Improvement District

The Metropolitan Improvement District, a program managed by the Downtown Seattle Association, unveiled a new fleet of mobile machines that will enable the Clean Team Ambassadors to address cleaning and sanitation needs in downtown. Part of MID's $15.5 million budget for the 2022-23 fiscal year, the investment in 18 cleaning “trikes” will nearly triple the current fleet. In the last fiscal year alone (ending in June), MID's Clean Team collected more than 1.4 million gallons of trash from downtown sidewalks, alleys and curb lines, in addition to cleaning biohazard materials. The MID service area consists of six downtown neighborhoods: Belltown, Denny Triangle, Pioneer Square, Retail Core, West Edge and Waterfront. This coverage area equals 285 square blocks. Established in 1958, the Downtown Seattle Association is a nonprofit membership organization whose mission is to create a healthy, vibrant downtown.
