Frequently Asked Questions
Get clarity on membership, benefits, and more.
What’s the difference between quarterly and annual membership?
Quarterly memberships renew every 3 months and require manual renewal. Annual memberships provide 12 months of continuous membership and offer savings of $100–$200 depending on business tier. Annual members also get priority placement in promotional materials.
How are my membership funds used?

How does the sticker program work?
Members receive custom “City Center Proud” stickers that include your logo and ours. Sell them for $1 as a show of support — proceeds go directly toward beautification.
