The Downtown Business Association of Escondido (DBA) oversees a comprehensive Downtown Revitalization Program, following the National Main Street approach, for a 68 square block area in Downtown Escondido. This assessment district was organized in 1989, at the request of business owners, to promote the business environment in the district. Its programs cover:

• Marketing
• Special Events
• Design Guidance and Historic Preservation
• Economic Development
• Security and Maintenance Advocacy
• Community Enhancement

The DBA is also the steward of the Business Improvement District. The BID ensures the continuance of on-going business advocacy, revitalization efforts, and promotion in Downtown Escondido on behalf of every business located in the BID.
